Roommates

[semimeme]

 

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!

he's being friendly. By that he's making you tea Levi

[thanatostouched]

[He supposes it's the nice thing to do. Share tea. Get to know someone. But Yuri...didn't really have any questions for Levi. Not as such; mostly he wanted to observe, and see what kind of man he was living with.

So when he made a pot of tea, he decided not to bring out one cup, but two. Which he brought out on a tray in the living room, along with a plate of cookies. He already had some paperwork ready to comb through and make notes on. Perfect to go with his black tea.

That was...if Levi hadn't already cleaned it up.]

[powerdriven]

[ As tempting as sorting out that haggard pile of papers had been, Levi has only recently signed his name onto the lease of this apartment. It wouldn't be worth the hassle of his new roommate's offense that he may have viewed his personal belongings. Given that, Yuri has no need to worry. Though Levi may be taking a glance over any less intrusive personal effects in the room, like hanging picture frames, after he's told to wait.

He turns away without any particular rush, hands stuffed into his pockets, when Yuri steps back into the room. Something smells good. ]

...It's not like I'm your guest now, is it.

[thanatostouched]

No, but we are sharing a living space.

[And while he's used to having someone share his space, that person wasn't someone who had been very observant. Or...much of anything, for that matter. So this is a new experience for him.

He'll set the tray down onto the coffee table, and take up his papers. He doesn't want to spill on them by accident.]

It's a token of consideration, or a welcome. [Whichever sounds better, tbh.] Do you like anything in your tea?

[He prefers honey, but he knows not everyone does. There's very little he knows about this man, even after the background check. Files never say how one likes tea, or personalities, unless they're dating sites.

Which was never his cup of tea.]

[powerdriven]

[ Mostly, he'd relied on the initial interview to make his judgments. But don't get him wrong—he's also certainly made it his priority to find someone who meets his standard for a tolerable roommate himself. Levi doesn't particularly like to waste time, on thumbing through potential candidates who keep to themselves or otherwise.

And it is his priority that they keep to themselves... but like this show of consideration might imply, they are still getting to know each other. Hopefully he hasn't misstepped.

Though for starters, tea isn't a bad development, so Levi seems to accept that answer. He circles around to the table, standing by for him to pour the kettle. ]

No. Not if it's brewed properly.

[thanatostouched]

[Yuri doesn't like to waste time either. It wasn't rushed, but neither of them dithered. They knew what they wanted-they weren't looking for friends.

But, then again, it's best to make sure that things won't go sour. A bit of courtesy can go a long way for future leniency.]

I like to think that it's been properly brewed.

[Because he knows his tea. But he'll pour the cups, and let Levi pick the one he wants. Maybe he likes it extra bitter. Who knows. Some people have terrible taste in tea.]
