📺 TRAPPED IN A SITCOM 📺
Have you ever wished for the perfect life just like those old shows on TV? Where everything works out by the time the credits roll? Where everyone is nice? A life with a cute house and a white picket fence? Like something right out of a 1950s sitcom? How do you fit in to this world? Do you have powers or abilities you have to hide because they just don't fit in with a sitcom? Do you have to change your habits? Or do you keep these things a secret?

But as perfect as it all there are hints that something isn't right. Cracks in the perfect façade begin to show. Maybe you see things that remind you of the life you used to have. Or you hear a voice calling for you. Something just doesn't feel right the more you think about it. Do you decide to fight back or stay in this so good it's actually creepy world? Because no matter what you do things begin to change, your overly sweet nosy next-door neighbour may be prone to super-powered acts of violence. The old man down the street who's always looking after his flowerbeds may have a garden full of dead bodies and plans on killing you next. The more you fight the more the world and everyone in it starts to turn on you.

Whatever is keeping you here wants you to stay - dead or alive.

RULES:
1. Top level with your preferences and some ideas for the type of sitcom you'd like your character to be trapped in (here are some sitcom tropes for ideas).
2. Tag each other. Profit. Have fun!
3. Don't be an asshole.
4. Please note in your subject header for any violence, gore, smut or dub/non-con.

[Why not]

[I'm fully caught up on WandaVision, lets do this.]

[No smut. He can be a spouse, dad, uncle, best friend, wacky neighbor, whichever!]

[No smut.]

[It can also be based on the original Darking cartoon for him!]

[He can fill a variety of roles, from son to best friend to neighbor!]

[aw heck yeah let's do this!!]

{ Could be fun. Isn't he already exposed to occasional fucked "sit-com" moments with a largely veiled pretentious art film style from the 80s'??? Just me then? Alright. }

[ i mean. up to date, mark spoilers. ]

[I needed this meme in my life! Bring it on!]

( the black sheep of the family; rebellious, goth - or the producers' idea of goth, dredged up from their collective understanding of Late 80s Youths - daughter whose parents ~just don't understand.~ )

[~~Haven't watched episode 7 of WandaVision yet~~ All caught up! Gimme everything]

[He's the neighborhood bad kid. He gets in fights, sells weed, is good at sports but isn't a team player. m/m for shipping, but he's thirteen, so let's keep pg-13 (he can drop swears when he's angry)]

[Voicetesting, this seems perfect to do here!]

((ooc: So episode 7 kinda gave me the brilliant idea that CW!Wanda here gets somehow pulled into the Hex because of all the glitching that is happening in Westview. Multiverse shenanigans and whatnot. And since Vision did leave the van, he can probably find a drastically younger, goth version of his wife wandering around alone and confused. 8Db))

((LOL I'm all for it, maybe once he flies out of the van he spots her on the ground thinking that is his wife? XD))

[ooc; I'm open to ideas on sitcoms. I have a soft spot for 80s and 90s sitcoms especially. ]
