Roommates meme!

SINGLE WHITE FEMALE - Wow, college is going to be so fun! My roommate and I get along really well, Mom, you should hear all about it! We like the same music and movies and celebrities and...well, she's a bit obsessive, she got her hair cut and dyed like mine and keeps going on and on about how she wants contacts the same color as my eyes, but she's really nice! She just got in, I'll call you later, bye Mom! (TL;DR - You have a roommate who wants to be you. Have fun)

I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT YOU THINK - He could not be more aggravating. Blaring music you think is shit, never taking out the trash, pissing on the floor when he's drunk and not even cleaning it up, bringing over people you can't stand at all hours of the day and night and now what? You cleaned all the dishes in the house and he had to have a bowl of cereal. A bowl he didn't even bother to rinse out. Time for some conflict of the YELLING REALLY LOUDLY!!!! kind.

STAR-CROSSED LOVERS - Obligatory sex option. You've been roommates for a while, but recently those furtive glances have been returned, they put their hand over yours when reaching for the coffee pot, and if something doesn't happen soon, you're going to end up a crying mess or flouncing out to get some poon elsewhere in frustration. Are you going to mesh well, or are you going to find out there's condoms in the house and have to make a trip to the gas station at two in the morning and deal with the worker staring at you as you buy XXLarge condoms?

BURY ME WITH IT - Your roommate is dying. Maybe they came home with a fatal diagnosis and can't help but spill. Maybe you watched them rescue a child from getting hit by a car and heard the thunk of their back breaking beneath ridiculously large tires. Console, comfort, hear their last words, tears and sorrow and a whole bucket load of angst.

HAN SOLO IS GAY - Technology is fun. You roommate takes it too far. Fight to the death. Offender may bring up that he wouldn't be able to do it if his roomie wasn't dumbass enough to leave his laptop laying around in the first place. Offender may have stolen it for the evulz. You never sent this text...

WILDCARD - seriously do whatever you want anon suggested it HERE IT IS

Post with character/universe and the person who replies to you is your new, exciting roommate! (With issues.)

[soft huff, partly to cover up his concern, but also because honestly] Yes, but why...?

[puts on antiseptic, this may sting]

[surprisingwolf]

[I'm tensing every time you touch me with that antiseptic of yours.] I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

[thelionroars]

[putting it on as gently as he can]

Mm-hmm. And which person do I need to have words with for hurting you?

[surprisingwolf]

[Owowowow.]

I had an encounter with a tree. It attacked me.

[Well, it was a wood-based monster, so....]

[thelionroars]

Um. Okay?

[still believes there are evil bullies trying to hurt you, and you're too gallant in trying to avoid a conflict, but won't press it-- for now]

Here, let me start wrapping you up.

[surprisingwolf]

[There are some distinct advantages to living with you. The animals may not be part of that, as another kitten is trying to burrow as far as it can into my pants leg, and one of the puppies is licking my face.]

Thank you. Ow.

[thelionroars]

Awww, Gunpei-chan was worried about you. ^^

Now once you're wrapped up, you're staying in for tonight, got it? I'll cook us dinner while you rest.

[surprisingwolf]

I don't think I'm going anywhere. I hurt.

[And, well, I don't want to move the kittens. Even if it is awkward. They're too cute.]

[thelionroars]

[if it weren't for the fact that you're hurt, he'd totally take out his camera for pics]

[goes into the kitchen] What would you like?

[surprisingwolf]

[Not especially hungry, but it gets you out of the room.] Um, miso soup?

[Debating how to turn over so I'm more comfortable, without annoying the kittens. Finally picking up Moune very delicately, probably bleeding more for it, and gently moving leg-kitten so kitten doesn't get squashed.]

[thelionroars]

[hears much concerning meowing, and a few yips from Gunpei-chan]

Calm down, babies, once I make the soup I'll give you a treat!

[surprisingwolf]

I think they were objecting to me turning over, actually.

[Gunpei-chan of course is back to washing face. And did you know that there's a particularly red butterfly flitting near the ceiling?]

[thelionroars]

[Heavy Metal Papillion-chan!]

They love you! And they just wanna keep you safe!

[almost done with the soup]

[surprisingwolf]

[It's a good thing I've done what I need to because I swear that your pets are intent on keeping me from moving and opening up my wounds.]

Oh. Ow.

[It's a good thing they can't keep me down forever by sheer cuteness. That tree-monster had a friend that escaped.]

[thelionroars]

[lol don't be so sure, between their cuteness and Kakeru's sad looks...]

I'm back! [soup and tea on tray] Now you better eat it all, or I may have to unleash Takeru-chan's fury on you.

[surprisingwolf]

That would be the orange kitten that is currently trying to crawl through my pants leg, right?

[Not that he's the only orange kitten there. Another orange tabby kitten is now sitting on my foot with a regal stare. I pick up the tea and sip at it before starting on the soup.]

Apart from me bleeding to death on the sofa, how was your day?

[thelionroars]

Yep! And pretty good! Misa-chan is doing better, and Noble Eager-chan is lovely as always.

[the soup's cooled, so] Do you think you can handle feeding yourself, or do you need help?

[surprisingwolf]

[Your enthusiasm is making me grin despite the pain. That, and Takeru-chan is now curled up and purring at me.]

You're very good at what you do.

[pause, considers] I should be okay with the food. Tell me more about your day.

[thelionroars]

Okay. But let me know if you need anything.

[thinks about it] It was a normal day. Kinda of busy, and the people are anxious, but there's always a bit of that, when they bring me their babies.

[surprisingwolf]

I promise I'll go help you out sometime. When I'm not being pinned down by kittens.

[Moving kind of stiffly, but eating and drinking, at least]

Off to le store, will respond when I return <3

[thelionroars]

[grin] That's so sweet-- but only if you feel up to it, okay?

[and hey, if it means evil bullies won't beat you up anymore...]

Hope you had a good trip!

[surprisingwolf]

[I'm more worried about evil nasty things beating you up, because I'm that kind of person.]

I'll recover in a few hours.

ty <3

[thelionroars]

[He's been Gao Red, so he knows a thing or two, but he does greatly appreciate the sentiment]

I know. But it'd be even sooner if you eat and rest, understood?

[surprisingwolf]

[I still think you're a helpless civilian. Clearly we need to have a discussion. Like after you catch me fighting monsters.]

[And the small orange kitten that's not in my pants leg is glaring at me, I swear, as if she knows what I'm thinking of doing.]

[grin] I guess there are advantages to having a veterinarian as a roommate.

[thelionroars]

[Good luck with fighting any soon, he's probably going to tuck you into bed soon :(]

Oh, Moune-chan looks like she wants to have a word with you! How sweet!
