📺 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.

[ It's a bright, sunny day in Riverdale Westchester Country, and a bright sunny day means taking the students of what's-it-called-it's-on-the-tip-of-my-tongue High School outside into the football field for their gym class. It means showing them how to volley a ball. It means encouraging the kids who do it naturally (Gaveedra). It means helping the kids who are having trouble and make sure they feel included (Rusty). Furthermore, it means wrangling the kids who don't actually want to be there (Ellie and Yukio, trying to make out under the bleachers). It takes a very particular kind of person to master teen wrangling. Piotr Rasputin, entirely human gym teacher, sports coach and occasional health ed instructor (because it's that kind of sitcom where the budget isn't high enough for extra members of cast, I mean staff) is your guy.

He smiles as he watches over his soccer field, with the volley ball net hastily put up in time to remove for the game tonight. Yes, he's done good by these children. ]

[ ideas: Wandavision-crossover, a substitute for Jessica's first mind control rodeo, not her first rodeo and she's not 100% affected, she's 100% unaffected thanks to preexisting mind control invulnerability and is here to snap your character out of it, et cetera ]

dracula.

[drank]

[ prestige detective drama, desperate housewives rip-off, succession-style show, ya fantasy, literally whatever. that said, would prefer him to be "trapped" rather than the one in charge of the illusion. ]

Number Five | The Umbrella Academy | OTA

[oldmanfive]

[ He would hate this and I would love it. XD I'm open to all types of sitcoms, the old school ones and the new school ones that have the confessionals. I'm fine with going with shows that aren't sitcoms like dramas and soap opera types too. ]
