Red Alert: Romance

Meet captain Saffiya Nassar. She commands an Olympic-class vessel and currently shares its shape – graceful, curvy, and built for comfort, not combat. She’s the kind of woman who’ll wrap you in a blanket, hand you hot chocolate, and say, “Let’s talk about it.” Warm, witty, and emotionally fluent, Saffiya is basically a hug in uniform.

Ever watched The Bachelor and thought, What if this had warp drive and phasers? Well, now’s your chance. For this competition, we want you to introduce one of your characters as if they were a contestant on a dating show — mysterious, dramatic, a little unhinged… and hopelessly eligible.

Your job:
Write a short dating profile or introduction scene for one of your characters. It should be styled like a reveal package for a dating show. The tone can be romantic, sarcastic, tragic, thrilling — whatever makes us want to swipe right (or run screaming).

You’re not writing a full biography. You’re teasing us. We want just enough detail to fall in love… or become deeply, deeply curious.

Criteria

• Your text should not exceed 100 words and put into the text submission box.
• Please only introduce one character.
• Tone: Up to you! Funny, sweet, dark, awkward — go wild.
• Submissions will be judged on their originality, spelling/grammar and adherence to the prompt
