Shamelessly stolen and modified from Anne who shamelessly stole and modified it from Conway. Zero regrets.


I. BED INVADERS
A. Decide you know this person! (Castmate, previous CR, etc.)
1. WAKE THEM UP. You don't care how friendly you are to the person in your bed; they need to get up.
2. PRANK! Oh, this has just got to stop. They need to be punished. But how?
3. CAN'T BEAT 'EM, JOIN 'EM. Push 'em over & snuggle up. You're too tired to deal with this craziness right now. Or sleep on your couch.
4. LET THEM SLEEP. Whatever. It's noon. They're asleep and you've got things to do. Regard them or disregard them.


B. Decide you have NO CLUE who is person is! (No CR, castmates who have never met, crosscanon, etc.)
5. SCREAM 'OMGWTFBBQ GET UP!' Really. Default action going on here.
6. PRANK! What a better way for you to remember this moment of meeting than by painting a mustachio on your new 'friend's' face? (Remember, it's your bed. Be wise what you do.)
7. GENTLY AWAKEN THEM. Oh, the poor dears! They must be exhausted, but they can't stay here. Be nice, even if it isn't IC for your character. This is what you get for rolling. Shake them up quietly. Or reroll.
8. GET TO KNOW THEM NON-BIBLICALLY. Well, they're asleep. But they left their wallet, important work, or identification out (no matter how OOC it may be)! Let's see who's REALLY sleeping in your bed. (Use your own judgment on what you find. AS a suggestion, have the most they find is the sleeper's name and maybe place of work.)
9. TIE 'EM UP. FUNCTIONAL typing up. Not kinky, no matter what the other party might think. Let them continue their blissful moment of rest. They'll answer questions later and you'll be safe and sound.

C. Decide - fuck the police. You heard. Fuck 'em.
10. YOU MOVE FORWARD AND MAKE YOUR OWN FATE.



II. ROAD TRIP
1. BREAK DOWN. Oh snap. Your car decided to break down out in the middle of nowhere. WHAT DO? Is that Leatherface? Will this be "Children of the Corn"?
2. HITCHHIKERS? Is this even a good idea? Threads may also have a third participant. Go wild.
3. WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST HIT? Dude, I hear deer mess up cars... Or I think that was a deer...
4. DON'T MAKE ME TURN THIS CAR AROUND. Alas. You're the parent or disgruntled friend who has had it up to here with all the fighting in the bakc. This thread may also have a third or even fourth participant, if you can wing it.
5. OMG, I WANT TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THIS LANDMARK! No, no, and no. You tell that person that they're going to be driven around and they're going to like it.
6. THE GREAT ESCAPE. Either dinosaurs or the mothman is chasing you. Don't stop now.
7. MAKE OUT. For whatever reason, the person you're traveling ith in the car. You would love to make out with them and then some.



III. CUDDLES
1. SWEET DREAMS. It's been a long day and all you want to do is sleep or just rest your eyes for a bit. Hopefully whoever is close by doesn't mind if you use them as a blanket.
2. STORMY WEATHER. The heavy rain, thunder, and lightning won't be letting up anytime soon. Luckily, it's the perfect weather to stay indoors and snuggle up close and keep warm.
3. SLOW DANCE. It's the end of a party, or maybe it's only the two of you, but the tempo is slow and the lights are low. Let your dance partner take the weight and just sway.
4. SURPRISE ATTACK. Time to invade someone's personal sapce. Are they working too much and need a distraction? Maybe you just wanted to brighten their day. Either way, they won't see it coming.
5. MOVIE NIGHT. It can be on the sofa or in a darkened theater, but you've got your popcorn and someone to settle against during your favorite movie.
6. I LOVE YOU, MAN. It's totally platonic, really. You're just very good friends, no matter what people like to think. But you just love your friend so much you want to hug them, whether they like it or not.
7. JEEPERS CREEPERS. Welp. You were just frightened. Was it a spider in the washroom, a ghost in the attic, a bad dream? Either way, you're looking for someone to cling to right now, and who better than that person right there?
8. HURT AND COMFORT. Whether you're sick in bed, just been dumped, or suffered a traumatic event, you need someone to wrap their arms around you and make everything go away.
9. SUNDAY MORNING. Maybe you just had a wild night. Maybe there's just not enough space at your place and you need to share your bed. Or maybe you just got really tired and someone else happened to be there. Doesn't matter because now the person with you looks way more comfortable than any blanket or pillow. Drape to your heart's content.
10. MOMENT AFTER. You just had incredible, vigorous sex and if you weren't a cuddler before, you are now. You're probably too exhausted to do anything else anyway. Just enjoy the moment.
11. MENAGE A TROIS. Or four, or five. Get a group and cuddle away.
12. PLAYER'S CHOICE. Pick one or make up your own!



IV. HURT/COMFORT
1. INJURY. You've been injured. Broken bones or bleeding out or maybe just a tiny little papercut. The choice is yours.
2. SICKNESS. You're sick and laid up in bed, at home or in a hospital. The severity is up to you.
3. FEAR/ANXIETY. Something is happening and you're scared beyond belief.
4. LOSS OF SENSES. Sight, touch, taste, hearing, smell, etc. You've lost some important sense or ability and now you're left to deal with it.
5. DESPAIR. Nothing is good or right anymore and you can't shake the depression. Maybe that friend of yours can help though.
6. MAKE UP. Fight or break up, it's time to make up.
7. RESCUED. You've just been held captive and/or tortured for however long and finally, someone has come to the rescue.
8. BAD ROMANCE. Fight, cheat on, abuse, whatever the case is, someone else can clearly see you need comfort from someone who isn't your terrible lover tonight.
9. LOSS. You've experienced a loss of some kind and need help getting through it.



V. FIGHT
1. FISTFIGHT. Straight-up, unfussy, no-holds-barred facepunching. Clearly you're emotionally invested in this argument. Or maybe you want some stress relief.
2. BAR FIGHT. Someone's had one too many drinks. Curses are being slurred, bottles are being smashed. Just don't be surprised if you get thrown out.
3. VERBAL. A caustic, intellectual battle of wits? Or just immature playground insults? Either way, the fighthing here isn't physical; sticks and stones can break your bones, but we'll see if words can hurt you...
4. WEAPONRY. Fencing practice or a real swordfight? Paintball or battlefield gunfight? The only limits are your imagination (and the extents of human military engineering, of course)!
5. SPARRING. Maybe you're a streetwise punk teaching the new kid on the block the ropes of self-defense. Or perhaps you just want to get some practice in before your karate exam.
6. SEXY. That collar-grabbing led to a kiss, that knee stayed in a place a little too long, those gazes got a little intense... There's heavy breathing here, but it might not be because you've been exerting yourself.
7. DUEL. You insulted the wrong person. Or got caught cheating at cards. A duel, sir, a duel! The glvoes are off (and slapping you) and it's pistols at dawn.
8. COMPETITIVE. Boxing, wrestling, martial arts, the possibilities are endless. Just remember: the first rule of Fight Club...
9. OTHER. Combine any of the above, or make up your own!



VI. BODY HORROR
1. WATER-DWELLING. You've grown gills, or your skin is turning translucent, or you're sprouting fins, or maybe you're outright turning into some form of sea life. It doesn't matter what you're turning into - what does matter is taht you're slowly losing the ability to breathe air, and there's no water in sight.
2. ANIMAL. Something bit you, and you're turning into an animal. Your bones lengthen or perhaps shrink, break, twist, and reform. Your teeth lengthen or shorten. And above all, you feel your instincts being overridden. Your senses sharpen; you notice smells you never did before. Your vision becomes more sensitive to movement. If you're a predator? Man, these people look mighty tasty. Prey? OH GOD. EVERYTHING IS TERRIFYING. Lizard? Enjoy your new inability to regulate body temperature. Bird? Have fun with the whole beak and hollowing bones. And don't get us started on insects and arachnids.
3. PARASITIC. Something's inside you, and it's changing you from within, chewing up your insides and altering your thoughts. You're not sure how much longer you're going to be you, and when the parasite's going to take over completely...
4. DEMONIC. You've been meddling with dark powers beyond the ken of mortal man, and it seems you've accidentally sold your soul. Will you be the traditional kind of demon, horns and hooves, or something far more terrifying and ineffable?
5. UNDEAD. No doubt about it, you're dying. But as you are, something's been altered in you. Maybe you're becoming a vampire - and not the fun kind either; we're talking ugly, ravenous, and mad. Maybe you're a zombie, or a ghoul, and human flesh looks mighty tasty. Or maybe you're just turning into a ghost bent on vengeance. In any case, death is never fun.
6. CYBERNETIC. Get captured by the Borg? Strapped to an operating table? INjected with nanites? Whatever happened to you, you're slowly turning into something half-human, half-machine, and your squishy bits are being replaced by mechnical components.
7. LOVECRAFTIAN. You've heard their song, the terrors from beyond the stars, and even no they sing in your blood as your frlesh transmutes into something ineffable and unknowable. You revel in the pain. You feel even as you seek to spread it, to herald the end of all things... Or maybe worse. You're aware of the transition as your mind becomes not your own.
8. FUSION/HIVEMIND. Youv'e begun to fuse with the first person who tagged you - physically, mentall, or both. Soon, you can't tell who is who, which one of you is the real you, as yur thoughts become one. Join in the fleshsong, mortal.
9. INANIMATE. Your body slowly petrifies and hardens, tuning to stone, wood, glass, or somethign stranger still. Or perhaps you liquefy or maybe you dissolve into the air itself.
10. WILDCARD. Pick whatever you like, combine a few options, or make up your own.



VII. HIGH SCHOOL AU
1. CLASS TIME. Pick your class, pick your seat. Whether you're paying attention or goofing off, you're interacting constantly with someone else.
2. BREAK TIME. Those precious minutes that aren't lunch, usually half an hour if you're lucky. Are you hanging out on the grass, rushing to get homework finished, or bunking off school early?
3. LUNCH TIME. Food, glorious food! ... As long as you're not eating the school lunches. What sort of chaos will you get up to in the endless queue that is the lunch line?
4. FOOD FIGHT. The natural reaction to being served school lunches: throwing them as far away from you as possible. You're caught in the middle, or maybe you're instigating it. Who knows? No one can tell.
5. STUDY PERIOD. Yeah. "Studying." They mean catching up on gossip, right? Or watching that crappy TV in the common room? Or maybe you really want to study. I'm not judging.
6. SKIPPING SCHOOL. Did you even get to school before you bunked off somewhere? Or did you just take the bus five stops further and in to town? Hope you don't get caught, either way.
7. EXAM WEEK. You're going into an exam, or just cramming every last bit of knowledge into your head. Either way, good luck! You're going to need it.
8. DETENTION. What did you do? Or were you innocent and wrapped up in your friend's scheme, and now you both have detention? I do not envy you at any rate.
9. SUMMER HOLIDAY. SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER! Burn your books, burn your uniforms. Everything is over for another 6 weeks (or however long you get off).
10. FACULTY. Oh, hello miss/sir. No, we weren't talking about bunking. Yep, you're the teacher. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you get this option, you or your partner can do a second roll for the scenario.
11. TAKE YOUR PICK. Free for you. Whether you want to pick something from the list, or make up your own scenario, this option allows that. (Of course, you could just bypass the rolling entirely.)



VIII. APOCALYPSE HOW
1. LAST ACTION HERO. You tried your best to save the world, but despite the superpowers, the teamwork, and the sacrifice of many good friends, you couldn't quite pull it off. Now you're left with your guilt and a universe where half the people left are depending on you to help them, while the rest are trying to hunt you down for your failures. Good luck with that, hero.
2. SCIENCE SAVIOR. They said it was impossible, they said it was futile, but you know that if you just got a little bit of support you could fix all of the world's troubles. Maybe your experiments are a bit on the unethical side, but the survival of humanity is depending on you! You can't let the world down. Time to grab those test-tubes and get yourself a lab assistant that doesn't mind getting their hands dirty.
3. THE LAST PERSON ON EARTH. Well, it's finally happened. A virus or disease or genetic mutation has all but wiped out members of the opposite sex and humanity is doomed. But what's this? A lone survivor? As the saviour of the species, they'll be glad to lend a hand (or reproductive organ) to help restore the population, right? Maybe a little bit of persuasion is in order.
4. SO LONELY. You haven't talked to another person in days and you're starved for conversation. So when you finally meet another lone traveler it makes total sense to stick together, right? Maybe share some food, some companionship, some ammo. . . . Better hope you both get along.
5. MUTATION STATION. The bomb dropped and some people weren't fortunate enough to go in the blast. Now those left behind have to deal with nuclear winter, a dwindling food supply, and some strange additions to the human gene code. Maybe these superhumans are friendly and misunderstood. Then again, maybe they just want to eat your brains.
6. LAST DANCE. The world is ending. You know it, everyone knows it, so the only thing left to do is party like it's 1999. Complete your bucket list, do the things you never got the chance to do before, and maybe screw up the courage to do the things you were too scared to even think about doing. Oh, and watch out for looters.
7. FREEBIE SCENARIO. Anything you can think of that isn't already mentioned can go here.



IX. PARANOIA
1. EROTOMANIA. That person loves you. They belong to you. They might deny it and be with someone else but they're ridiculous. You know better here.
2. DISTRUST. Simple as it sounds, you're being lied to. You can't prove it but you're not falling for their tricks anymore.
3. HALLUCINATIONS. A vague classic. Those sounds, those sights, your senses are screwed up and the world is upside down. There's plenty of senses to screw.
4. TAINTED. You're completely wrong. Is it in your family's blood? Is it parasites? A disease? Aliens? A sin? But it's consuming you, whatever it is.
5. CONSPIRACY. Why are they after you? Who knows. Maybe you know. But everyone is in on it and you're the only one left fighting against it.
6. CONTROL. Your actions aren't your own, even if others insist they are. Somehow, either drugs or magic or something, someone is making you their puppet.
7. FIXATION. Either it's in you or someone else or a thing but this imperfection is clawing at your mind. Just fix it. Fix it and you can rest.
8. FOLIE A DEUX. The more either you or the other person talks, the more you feed into this unease and the more real it sounds. What can you two alone do?
9. REPLACEMENTS. Is it just this person or is everyone being replaced with a fake? You're not a fake, though. You won't let them replace you.
10. REAL. Is any of this real? Maybe you're dreaming or drugged. Maybe you're dead. But you need to prove that this is really happening, whatever it takes.

i definitely agree, perhaps we should hold auditions for tomorrow?

[ he reads the passage before him from a different perspective and context than she. her last memory of him is his refusal to take a leap of faith with her, something she had made herself all too vulnerable to pursue. the matter, for her, sounds final — if she doesn't follow through with his request (an odd one, she thinks, as it had been him to leave her after the life that they had begun to build together, even if it had been made of brick formed from falsities and half-hidden lies), then he'll leave it be, unlike his half-brother he is so disgustingly devoted to. he will chase her as many times as it takes around the globe until he finally ensnares her within one of his traps. ]

I can't. [ it's not what she means to say. she had meant to promise, with her fingers crossed and held behind her back, that she would return to the city owned by a man who wants her skinned alive and bled to death. but the sarcasm and the biting tone — and the words — are, instead, switched with a tone that almost sounds painful. she cannot leave nadia after her daughter has spent the last five centuries of her life looking for a mother who is merely a shadow of the woman she longs for. katherine pierce is a disappointment, one that elijah and nadia cling to with an image of a girl who is very much dead. ]

[ but she takes the vial, as katherine has always been well-equipped with stealing from others and giving very little in return. but she has always given a little too much to elijah. ] When she's cured, I'm off the grid. I'm starting a new life, Elijah. [ without you. ] And it's not going to be under the thumb of Klaus. [ she has only ever been this vulnerable in his presence twice within the last year — in pennsylvania, when she had placed the cure and her freedom within his disappointing palm, and when she had pleaded for him to stay with her. she loathes him for pulling it out of her, even though, the great reader of all the players on the chessboard, finds it too difficult to discern elijah's true motivation. he is a man of honour and a man of his word, but he is also a man who possesses a candle for holding her to a grudge she will never find it within herself to truly repent for. ]

[personal profile] ofmyword 2014-05-11 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[He reads it how he wants it to be, instead of what it is. Like a man desperately clinging to the ideal of a peasant girl who needs to be uplifted and protected from the way the world was when they first met. He has wronged her and desperately seeks a way to right it without betraying the man he has become amidst the war of New Orleans. Offering her a home, despite the constant overbearing presence of Niklaus, is one way of doing that.]

She. [He repeats the only important word out of her mouth. Whether intentional or not, she's started revealing information he knows she doesn't want him to have. It's filed away, like everything else she's said today. There isn't enough for him to put the pieces together, but the identity of the woman Katerina is desperate to save isn't important unless he can use it to convince her to stay.] You seem to be mistaken about which of us rules this city, Katerina. Niklaus is too preoccupied with his child to cling to old grudges.

[It's a last ditch effort to convince her to return to him when her business is done. He closes the distance between them, bringing his hand up to caress her face.] What would you have me do?
manipulative: curly. (Default)

[personal profile] manipulative 2014-05-12 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ klaus with a child is almost laughable — and she nearly focuses entirely on that, on beating down a man who can't instil any fear within her to stop her mouth from forming the words she so longs to shape into a stake. but it'll merely divide elijah's attention from the real issue at heart. ]

[ there are far too many answers to that question. she wants him to pick her. she wants him to trust her. she wants him to gift her her freedom, wholly and completely, without any loopholes within his words, and without any ties back to him. she wants him to see her for who she truly is — and to stop believing that she'll return to the mold of the girl he wants her to be. she wants him to stop being disappointed. she wants to go back to a time where she had acted quicker, where she had fought harder, and where she hadn't allowed a man to chase her for five centuries as if it were a mere game of innocent chase. katherine pierce is a woman who is capable of fetching what it is she wants and bringing it into being — but katerina is merely the girl who has been robbed for her entire life. ]

[ despite his kindness and his compassion he has displayed since his extended invitation toward her, katherine is startled when he closes the distance to touch her. she sucks in a breath, it shattering her impenetrable facade. it's become too easy to hate him, to project all the anger she feels for herself onto a man who wants to shape her into a girl she has been trying to kill for centuries. she tries to manipulate her tone into being something made of anger, almost as sharp and dangerous as a white oak stake, but, instead, like he had worked at causing her walls to crumble in pennsylvania, she merely breathes it out as a plea. ] Stop chasing me.

[ all katherine wants is to be loved, wholly and consumedly, but she finds that, even when it presents itself in an impeccably handsome form, she must flee from it before it destroys her entirely. ]

[personal profile] ofmyword 2014-05-12 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't remove his hand.]

[It isn't a wholly unexpected answer, some detached piece of him that remains aware of the constant need for a woman to become the target of his twisted affection piercing through the incessant cloud that is the psyche of Elijah Mikaelson. But this is hardly the first time Katerina Petrova has told him to stop chasing her, and it likely won't be the last. Perhaps, in another five centuries he will succeed and ensnare her for the final time. Perhaps, in another five centuries their love will simply be love, instead of a mockery of the very concept itself.]

And if I asked you to stop running? [It's unfair to spin it around on her, but nothing about their relationship or its dynamic has ever been fair. It's still something that needs to be asked, so they can both get some sick form of closure.] If I asked you to come back, instead of using Niklaus' blood as a bargaining chip to get what I want?

[ you had your chance and you said no. yet, katherine chases stefan as elijah chases her. it's pathetic, really, how she longs to be chased like the boys in her life follow that of her descendent to the ends of the earth and back for a mere glance in their direction, but katherine refuses it when it's given to her. ]

[ katherine snatches his hand away from her face, her fingers looping around his wrist with a strength that would crush any other man's bones. ] You left. Not me. [ by that time, katherine had been prepared to take her sneakers off and burn them. stefan is merely a passing fancy, something to occupy her time and allow her to spin her web to capture elena as a pawn to offer as a free pass to klaus. but katherine's lost her way in the middle of running and fleeing and attempting to rebuild herself into someone utterly different. if she removes those shoes from her feet, she's uncertain of what will come barrelling into her. ]

[ but it's still not an answer. katherine's uncertain if she could ever stop running — elijah is one of many things she flees from. he longs to protect those he cares about, but katherine very much doubts he can save her from herself. she becomes petulant. ] You have your little wolf to keep you company, Elijah. You don't need me. [ just like i don't need you, she wants to say, but she finds she can't quite push the stake into his heart. ]
