Huh.[locked to family or those that have met the Arcana]--Tadc's answer
Suppose it's only fair that if my big sister and brother have to answer this, I take a shot at it. Maybe that'll make certain people stop either A)glaring at me when they think I don't notice or B)trying to hook me up with a (cute, I admit, but STRANGE)person we met lately. I can find my own partners, thanks.
"What do you look for in a romantic partner?"
Humanoid--No, I'm not being facetious. Try it sometime. Fill out a personal ad and don't, for example, specify that you want only people close to your own age, or only males, or only females if that's your preferences. The devil really is in the details here. As the occasional subject of screwed-up romances and blind dates, I can tell you it is.
I love women, never made any bones about that. Nor is it only...well.
I don't lie, don't make promises. I treat 'em nicely, unless that isn't what they want. Someone who's on the same page with me, that understands "now" doesn't mean forever, but can be happy about it without 'settling'.
Blond, red, brunette, black, I'm not picky. Though I like someone who's graceful, who smiles a lot, and tall enough to look me straight in the eyes.
Usually, I want someone who has some sass. I mean, please, if I want quiet and safe I'll buy a box of those vanilla cookies and some American beer and leave it at that. Someone who laughs, who has their own ideas and own thing going, not someone who's going to hang off me like a wet noodle.
Don't cling to me. I'm not a safety net, ladies and gentlemen. If you're afraid of sex or trying new and weird experiences, or getting in your s.o.'s face when you think he's full of it, you don't want me, not for long.
