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!

With good reason. You're more than a symbol patriotism or freedom for them, Steve. You're a symbol of hope. Just because the war is over doesn't mean they don't need you anymore.

[ She brushes her hands over his shoulders absentmindedly, pulling away quickly, making no mention of the pink flush of his cheeks. She had been the one to initiate the kiss before he went after Red Skull, but she has yet to do it again. There hadn't been time before. The deeper horrors of the war continued to be exposed even as the allies celebrated its end. Peggy barely had time to catch her own breath until recent months, and although she and Steve now lived so close, she hasn't pushed it. He is still adjusting to who he is without the war - she is, too - and she has no intention of pushing it. She loves him, more than enough to wait until he was ready to kiss her again. ]

Let's go. [ She slips away from him, leading the way to the door. ] Can you get the grocery list from the table? Howard offered to hire someone to shop for us, but I told him you'd probably hate that.

[ His mouth tugs at the corner into a ghost of a smile. If there's anyone in the world that thinks best of Steve, it's Peggy — and she's about the only one who can say it out loud and have him believe it. She's right about one thing: the war being over doesn't mean he isn't needed.

He just needs to figure out how.

Straightening up, his eyes trail her briefly on her way to the door before he grabs his hat and follows her, making sure to scoot ahead just enough to let him get the door open for her. The mention of Stark makes him scoff, rolling his eyes. ]


He would offer that.

[ Honestly, he's already planning on getting out of this fancy-pants apartment as soon as he's got the dough; he's only stuck with it because he wants the best for Peggy, and right now he just... can't afford it. But he's working on it. He's saving, and he's scraping, and in just a couple months he's sure he'll be in a better spot. Until then, he's stuck with Howard Stark's ostentatious charity. ]

I'm bettin' he's never even set foot in an actual store. His assistants have assistants that go for him.
