Roommates

 

Perhaps you were best friends who decided to make rent cheaper by living together, a couple who took the plunge and moved in together, or you could just be some random people thrown together by circumstance and really needing a place to live.

Either way, you're sharing a flat (or maybe even a room) now! What's going to happen?

You know this drill:
- Post your character name, series and any preferences.
- Go to RNG (1-12) and tag around.
- Have fun!

PROMPTS:
( moving day )
Boxes. So. Many. Boxes. Whether you're moving in or out, they've got to go. Is your roommate willing to lend a hand?

( chores )
Whose turn is it to take out the trash? How about the dishes? 

( pets )
Not only are you sharing a living space, you're sharing space with an animal. There could be allergies, behavioral issues, or an unexpected exercise partner. Most importantly, do you have to hide them from the super? Hmm, maybe not the fishtank. 

( uninvited guests )

Could be a party, could be a significant other that seems to have moved in... you just weren't expecting company tonight.

( the noisy one )
Is there anything worse than paper thin walls and a noisy flatmate? You can hear everything they're doing... even (or especially) the TMI.

( the friendly one )
Oh, lucky you, you've scored someone who wants to try and make things as good as possible for you both! Don't waste this now. It might just be the greatest thing you could have.

( the tmi one )
OH GOD why did you walk in during that? Nope, backing out now... unless you're into that. Why do they keep telling you things, as well? Gosh.

( the disaster )
There's not even words. These are the ones the internet warned you about. A little TMI or noise? That is nothing compared to the crazy you're stuck with right now.

( a night in )
Game night, movies, TV marathons, whatever you like. You and your flatmate are going to hunker down with some popcorn and have fun.

( the fight )
Chore chart not working out? Someone is always late with the rent? It just isn't working out. Time to have that confrontation you're been putting off. Good luck.

( shopping )
Whether you're going for groceries or furniture (or fun!), you and your flatmate are hitting the shops and spending some cash.

( the other )
Thought of something not on here? Go for it! Mix and match your options or anything else!

[Not tmi if we're doing that one with Neo, I guess? Anything popping out at you?]

[ooc: I had two scenarios pop into my mind. I wrote them both out and you just pick which one you like more.]

A

Neon has been a pretty spectacular roommate to Sun so far. Despite what happened yesterday. Neon had insisted suggested Sun join her out for a skate around town. Now it had been a long time since Sun had been on skates, it would be even longer before he got back on now now. He fell at least four times yesterday.

Even waking up today, his butt was still totally sore. But did he have fun? Yeah. So he wanted to do something nice for her this morning. Namely, make her breakfast. Though Sun's cooking skills were probably on par with his skating skills.

That much was obvious when smoke started to fill the apartment as he burnt pancakes. The alarm was blaring and Sun was standing by it with a makeshift fan trying to blow all the smoke away. Well, this was certain to wake Neon up if she wasn't awake already. Maybe he'd opt to take her out to breakfast somewhere else instead.

B

The music pulsated in the Night Club. Likes flashed and twirled in various colors. People danced and drank. It was easy to tell people were having a good time.

Sun was new to this place and his roommate, Neon, was just interested in showing him a good time. He couldn't say he was surprised that this was the sort of place she might enjoy. She seemed the type. They eventually got separated and he wasn't sure where she was now.

But Sun was sitting on one of the couches scattered around. He had a couple of drinks, his shirt was missing, his hair is a bit messed up and he has a bit of glitter on his body. So far tonight, he's had an amazing time. He had to actually sit down to get his breath back and maybe locate his roomie.
nyankatt: (AWESOME)

Man this was a tough choice

Neon felt a little guilty. She dragged Sun to the night club and then ditched him. This wasn’t an uncommon thing – you drink, you dance, you lose each other. It just happens. You blink, and they’re gone. Or in her case, you do a lap around the dance floor and can’t remember where you put your partner.

It had been about an hour since she saw him last, which again, not uncommon, but she was getting a little worried – who knew how much he drank? She darted around the club looking for him, surprisingly well balanced for someone who had a few drinks in her, but skating always came more naturally to her than walking. Not that she was necessarily going straight – she just wasn’t falling.

She had just grabbed another drink as she passed by it on her round and gasped as her favorite song came on. “I love this song!”

She really should find Sun, but one more dance couldn’t hurt, could it?

Glad I could give you a tough choice!

It happens and Sun isn’t upset about it. He didn’t think Neon was the sort of person that would invite him out here just to ditch them. It’d be a little pointless anyway, since the two of them were still going to be here at the club. Sun does spot the other tailed Faunus as she swipes a drink from someone as she went by.

Normally she would be hard to miss, but in a setting like this where there were already a lot of bright colors, she could be hard to see. But he had eyes directly on her now. He waved his arm in the air and shouted out to her, hoping that she might hear.

“Hey, Neon!” He’d get up and chase her down, but given how fast she’s going he isn’t sure if he’d be able to capture.
nyankatt: (never miss a beat)

Neon's spinning wildly as she dances, never in the same place for more than a second. It's by pure dumb luck that she happens to spot Sun through the crowd. She can see his mouth moving but can't hear a thing he's saying from where she is.

She weaved through her fellow party-goers over to where he's sitting. She takes one look at him and gives a knowing smile. "Someone had a good night."
