Excuse me, but the hottest couple is Fire Dude x Fire Dudette

Vote: PurpleMagician

Also no reason not to vote unless he happens to be your partner. After all, we're all against each other anyways...

Let's just have a Smash Bros tournament and let the winner of the tournament win the game

Yup, this seems like a good option. Passion/Passion is dangerous in a game like this.

Since it's obvious you guys probably aren't going to change your votes, and my partner and I aren't passion/passion as PSN believes, I'll tell you what we are: we are devotion/passion, and Kirby is my partner. If you don't believe us, here's an idea: we visited SML last night. Me and Kirby will vote for SML, and all we need are two more partners to go with us. As for the kill on night one, I think there is a passion/trust pair on our hands, and someone is lying to PSN.

Previous and overdue flavour for Snow/Letter, and Hyp/Samur. Nothing should be interpreted, unconfirmed couples will use they pronouns, etc.
The first challenge of love proves to be the classic Duel of the Duets. During this competition, judges will not be rating the couple based on their skill with the songs - this is, after all, not American Idol - but rather on how well the couple connects performing together on stage. "Contestants will be given half an hour to choose a song and prepare for the big moment," Aviana explains to the audience, reminding them that each episode of Prove Your Love! is an hour long, "but don't go anywhere! We'll be popping in with our couples during their preparation time to see how they're doing, and hear stories about some of them from friends and family!"

As if on cue, one contestant's mother is brought forward from the stands, seeming very pleased to be a part of the show. The couples split off into their separate practicing areas as the show focuses on the family.

Letter settles the skirt of his dress before sitting down on the bed, list of options held in his hands. "Wow, they didn't spare us on song options," he comments, smiling at Snow. "Lots of 'our song' kind of options here. Here, do you want to sit next to me and look through the list?"

Coughing roughly, Snow gives Letter a sullen look. "You know I can't compete like this," it snaps, voice very hoarse from having recently lost its voice.

"Don't be like that," Letter answers pleadingly. "You heard them, they're not judging us based on how well we sing or anything. They just want to see us perform together, you know?" He grins hopefully, trying to press this advantage. "Come on, we could just have you dance with me or something. That wouldn't be that bad, would it?"

His partner considers this idea for a moment, sighs, and exits their room. As it goes, it begins humming a song that feels appropriate.


"...and you know, I was just so happy, and relieved, that they managed to find someone to love him," a different contestant's mother is telling Aviana, sniffling slightly.

The hostess smiles warmly. "That they found someone so great for them, right?"

Considering, the mother answers, "Well, that they found someone at all, honestly."

"And with that, our competing couples should be ready to perform for us!" Aviana says abruptly, giving the mother a polite nod, but otherwise obviously eager to move on from this awkward interview. "We have some daring song choices tonight - but more importantly, how will our couples synchronise under these conditions? Let's find out!"



With some song choices more daring than others, the audience and the judges alike seem fascinated as the now-six couples work through their duets. True to their word, the judges don't penalise any couples who didn't belong on a microphone if they seemed to move well with their partner, if their timing was right...

Of course, some couples just couldn't handle the pressure of performing, even with their partner's similarly nervous support. In the end, Hyp and Samur were deemed too out of sync with their awkward shuffling around on stage, nearly away from each other, and complete failure to pick up their cues at the right time...

"Your love is not the truest here," a stately woman declares, her judgement grave and final. "That is not to say you couldn't become wonderful together, but as of now? This is not the case."

To the camera, one of the judges adds, "Frankly, I've seen rocks with more chemistry!"

The comment was not intended for the contestant, but what Hyp lacks in singing and performance coordination, he makes up for in hearing. Stung by the comment, he runs off the stage, nearly in tears. "Wait, babe!" Samur calls, giving the judges the quickest bow of acknowledgement he can before bolting off after his distressed partner.

It takes a long evening of holding each other and many soft reassurances for the two of them to calm down and feel okay.

Of course, the contest continues on without focusing on this!

That is some nice flavor that I still have yet to read.

Also I'm gonna back up everything that Purple said about the two of us being partners and not the double Passion vig combo. Heck if we were the double Passion vig, wouldn't we have tried to kill PSN last night since it appears that you and your partner might have a useful pair yourselves? Either that or your behind the scenes PMing is working out well for you since you somehow found out that Purple is a part of a Passion pair at least.

So after doing some digging of my own I've verified Kirby and Purple's claim. Based on that data, there's someone who can only possibly be part of the Passion/Passion.

Vote: Matte

Matte has contacted me before to talk about the game and the way he talked about things did seem very suspicious, and it did left me worried that he might be the Passion/Passion couple so...

VOTE: Mattel

Only for my partner and I's safety.

"And with that, our first challenge is completed!" Aviana cheerfully informs the audience, and the viewers at home. They all applaud, even though they knew this anyway. "The next challenge tests the couples' coordination again - but in a more physical way." Before people can drop their minds too far into the gutter, the hostess steps to the side and gestures behind her. "Onto our Lovers' Challenge Course!"

The couples and Aviana move out to the course while the camera crew takes the chance to show off some of the challenges. The course features jump pads, a rock climbing wall, logs to run across to the finish line... each of the challenges seem structured to where a challenger who can't keep up falls into a pool of water below. Hostess voice chipper as ever, Aviana explains that the goal is to not be the last one to finish, and that falling into the water won't disqualify a couple. "Just get back up quickly, and get at the course again! Simple enough, right?"

Cheers from the audience are enough confirmation that the rules seem simple enough, and without much delay, the couples are ready to begin. Aviana, having changed into a referee outfit when other contestants had to change to a sportier outfit, blows a small airgun to begin the race. Once the couples are rushing off, she moves to the finish line in a much more direct fashion.

Splashes into the water quickly prove not uncommon, particularly at the rock climbing wall. Some couples, surprisingly athletic, reach the finish line very quickly. Some couples figure out that the rules don't forbid interference, and spend a great deal of time sabotaging their opponents on their way to the end. Eventually, only two couples are left trying to finish the race, having reached the final obstacle of the river logs at the same time.

Mattelonian grins to his partner, Porygon, as they begin to cross. "Okay, I've watched this show a bunch, I know a good trick for this part," he tells Porygon quietly, confidently. "When I shout, lean out away from the other couple, okay?"

"Whatever you say, sugar pie," Porygon answers, carefully balancing on the log to kiss Mattelonian on the cheek.

When the other couple, moving quicker and making the log a little more precarious, catch up to Mattelonian and Porygon, the former shouts. As expected, Porygon leans out, away from the competing couple, and Mattelonian leans towards them, giving one partner a hard shove. In every episode Mattelonian's seen where this happens, the opposing couple loses their balance and falls into the water, while the shoving couple reaches the finish line quickly after.

This time, though...

"N-no!" the partner of the opposing couple that wasn't shoved cries, yanking hard on their falling companion to keep them from falling in. "Stay with me, my love! We won't let them do this!"

The words of encouragement, and the pull back to the log, are nearly enough for the partner to regain his footing on their log. They do, however, find themselves reaching backwards for stabilisation, and in the process, shove Mattelonian, and through the power of holding hands, Porygon, into the water quite by accident.

When Mattelonian stands up in the shallow pool, he watches in shock as the opposing couple crosses the finish line. "We... lost?" he whispers in horror, turning frantically to Porygon. "Babe, I'm so sorry, that's seriously never backfired from what I've seen of this show before... It's a classic trick!"

Porygon seems undisturbed by this development. "Hey, hey, it's all right. It was a good risk, right?" He gives his partner a cheeky grin, then takes a minute to look Mattelonian over more carefully. The shirt, completely wet, clinging to his partner's skin like that... "Tell you what," Porygon adds in a low, breathy tone, stepping in close. "I can think of some things we could do later that'll cheer you up. And it won't be things we could have done on air anyway, if you catch my drift."

Mattelonian caught it, and shivered with a slow grin.

Eliminated: Mattelonian and PorygonSeizure - Passion/Passion

Night 3 begins!

Do you guys want a 48 hour night phase, or a 72 hour day phase? One of the upcoming phases will be extended, players' choice.

I've heard from no one about their extension preference, so I'm making the executive decision that the night phase will be extended. It'll update tomorrow instead of today.
