Come To My Window
shipping meme

You know the drill from every nineties movie/tv show known to man, because apparently there were no doors in the nineties: you, oh poor you, are stuck up in your room, and then, a rock is thrown at your window! Why, who would do such a thing? No, it's not some kind of burglar coming in to steal all your...private room things, it's your childhood friend from next door (who totally has a crush on you/you're nursing a crush on), your free-spirited boyfriend or girlfriend, or another rebellious love interest who has a long, long ladder and no need for conventional entrances. Why are they here? To finally confess their secret feelings for you? Give you your first kiss? Sneak you away because your parents don't approve? Maybe they have a crappy home life and just need somewhere to stay.

Whatever the case may be, open those window panes and get ready for sneaking in, sneaking out, and possibly making out.

Inspired by all those teen movies where love interests climb in through windows. Play it as straight or as ridiculous as you want. Age your character down. I don't care, I'm not the boss.
Comment with your character and prefs. Also, are they the one climbing in the window or up in the room?
Reply to others.
Be cool.
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight, lead me out on the moonlit floor, lift your open hand, strike up the band and make the fireflies dance, silver moon's sparkling, so kiss me.

There is a soft tapping at Billy's window. It starts softly at first, then gradually becomes harder the longer it takes the boy longer to answer it.

There's tapping at his window and were Billy anyone else, he might think this is how horror movies start. Or he would if he were 'normal', right? Something like that. Instead, it doesn't take him too long at all to move to the window and pull the cord to open his blinds.

Unlatching the lock and pushing his window open takes even less time when he spots Teddy. Go figure. But he's smiling like Teddy is basically the sun, so there's that.

"Hey there."

( If you're going with canon, she literally lives in a tower. There's nowhere to go but up.

For normal(ish) teen AUs, she's still probably stuck up in her room because her dad is an evil, murdering occultist. Sorry about that.

Available in canon superhero flavor, or AUs where she's some kind of urban fantasy-esque white witchy pagan, high fantasy mage, or a plain high school/college kid with freaky abilities. I'm particularly interested in a scenario where she's a darker Sabrina the Teenage Witch, dealing with some cult shit and trying to keep eldritch horrors at bay while dealing with stupid kid feelings.

character wishlist | kink wishlist if you want to smut for some reason idk? )

[ Let her be the genderswapped Romeo to your Juliet and she'll sneak up to your window and bring you tons of great, homecooked food. Also, she'll beat up all the bullies in the vicinity of your house.

Open to canon, cross-canon, cross-medium, whatevs. I'm flexible and just like cute things.

F/F is cool if you're Usagi or you're Haruka or the Three Lights and you want to come to her window. ]

[ Come to her window or, if she comes to yours, open it quickly or she'll purposefully break it with a well-aimed rock.

Open to canon, cross-canon, cross-medium, if it's cute, it gets put in the shipping crate.

Usagis get F/F but they'd better have a reason for her to be traipsing around in windows at night jfc. ]

(Could swoop through a window in raven form. Cross-canon fine, especially similar canons. No Wardens, please.)

[ya.

alternatively, this is the location irl which her house was based on, for reference purposes of any visitors coming up.]

[Kanji's just gonna randomly pop his head in through the window he suddenly opened out the blue with no warning.]

Hey! [It's whispered. Sorta.]

[His voice cuts through the relative quiet indoors -- good that Kanan wasn't holding anything at the time, or she would have dropped it.

She's quick to get over the surprise, though, and raises a hand in greeting while walking to the window.]

Hey. What's up?
