Roommates Meme

The Roommates Meme


Whether its in the dorms at college or just because it costs too much to live alone, sometimes you just end up sharing a living space with someone else. A roommate. Or even more than one. Sometimes they're your friends and others you hate their guts. Its not always easy adjusting to living with other people.

- Post with your characters, listing name and canon in the subject line along with any prefs.
- The person that replies is now your character's roommate.
- Either set a scenario of your own or use the RNG to pick one.
- Have fun threading things out!

1. Moving In - Say hello to your brand new roomie! They're moving in today. Are you going to help them with their boxes? Hopefully you get along.

2. Moving Out - For whatever reason, you're parting ways. One of you is moving out. Will it be a tearful goodbye or are you going to tell them not to let the door hit them on the way out?

3. Best Friends - You and your roommate have been together a long while and you've become great friends. Hang out, order a pizza, watch TV. Have some fun with this great person you live with!

4. Angry! - Maybe they left the bathroom a mess. Maybe they're just way too loud at night or they ate the last of your cereal. Whatever the reason, you're angry at your roommate. Maybe they're mad too. Have a fight or try to work it out somehow.

5. Falling for them - You didn't think it would happen but it has. That roommate of yours is just your type and you've fallen for them. Will you tell them or keep it to yourself? Maybe they already know and are trying to figure out things for themselves.

6. Wildcard - Roll again or pick your own. Whatever looks fun.

[He just manages to open the door (and keeps it open with his foot), arms full of football paraphernalia. He furrows his brows, not quite sure why this girl is knocking on his door.]

Hullo?

Hey. [Suki smiles.] I'm Suki. I guess I'm your roommate?

[She quickly looks back at the number on door.] Yup, looks like it.

You're not a bloke!

[Pretty obvious he said that without thinking, isn't it?]

[personal profile] fanismighter 2012-02-08 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Have a look.]

What gave it away?

I--er--

[Blushes.]

[Staring.]

Are you going to let me in?

[Frowns and doesn't budge.]

Is this some sort of joke? Rooms are not supposed to be mixed.

[Not that he really cared, but he'd rather not have any sort of trouble ruin his chances to make the team.]

Wait. Isn't it like a suite? [That's what she signed up for and wanted!

AND WTF OLIVER?!?! Suki ruins everything >_>]

Obviously not.

[It doesn't seem like Suki is trying to pull one on him, so he pushes the door wider to let her have a look at the double.]

I'm Oliver, by the way.

[personal profile] fanismighter 2012-02-08 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
Great. [Guess she'll be making a phone call tonight.]

It's nice to meet you Oliver. I'm sorry about this. [Even though there's nothing she could do about it.]

[Shrugs]

S'not your fault housing can be incompetent. I suppose you can stay here until it's cleared up.

[He drops all of his paraphernalia on his bed and moves to help her bring all her boxes in.]

[personal profile] fanismighter 2012-02-10 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks... [Have a look.]

Do you mind helping me with my stuff?

[Are all girls impatient? :| He picks up a box and gives her a quick grin. Let it not be said his mother did not teach him manners.]

'Course not.

[personal profile] fanismighter 2012-02-15 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks. [She smiled warmly at him as she moved into the room and placed her things on her bed.

When everything was in, he can notice how she's looking through her things.]
