Who buys TV Guide these days?

📺 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.

[ negl I stole this wholesale from nards/elmstreet because i've got an itch for forced family units and false-memory marriages that cannot be scratched. ]

[low_key_angel]

[Okay so I don't know if you know the SPN canon but I think Gabriel and Agatha would get along like a house on fire]

[allillusion]

[ hi mom c: anything particular you'd want to do? maybe something with billy figuring out how to control his powers? ]

[hexcoding]

[ ... you mean screaming, flames, people running for safety, that kind of thing?

I like it. Thoughts on scenario? ]

jessica jones | netflix marvel

[grunge]

[ 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 ]

lorna dane / polaris | the gifted

[mutants]

[ Wandavision shenanigans welcome (disaffected flannel teen 20-something circa 90's era, anyone?), or it's just a mutant thing. ]

[low_key_angel]

[Well duh.
Isn't that how you do neighborhood cookouts?

Or is that just him?

He could be the mystery stranger, new to Westview and maybe like Agatha coming to check this new power out?]

Blight | THG

[gingerbeard]

[ 80's widower dad, moved from a lumber town to the big city, has twin sons and not a single clue ]

Billy Maximoff | Wandavision

[allillusion]

[ voicetesting! here for any and all shenanigans c: ]

Tommy Shepherd | marvel | ota

[mph]

[ 616? yes. MCU/Wandavision adjacent multiverse fuck-ups? Also yes. Just no one tell him about the laugh track. ]

[hexcoding]

[ I love it! Do you have a strong decade preference? ]

[willed]

( ooc; this is the cuteness i seek and sign up for. that absolutely sounds great! please have wanda questioning if they should replace all the dinnerware with plastic until he gets a better hold on them. )

[low_key_angel]

[I think Gabriel would have a pretty strong affinity for the 80s and beyond because he loves the cheese]

[hexcoding]

[ YES GOOD. ]

I sure do hope this is okay!

[mph]

[ So one day, you're just minding your own business, playing video games while your genius boyfriend does his taxes like a nerd, and the next, you're tugged through the multiverse and end up playing yourself, but like in High School. Except, this is a half-competent high school version of yourself, where you're on the track team, and you didn't flunk out and end up in juvy. A version where your spooky metaphysical mom is actually your real mom, and she's a housewife, and it's actually pretty okay.

Oh, what, that's never happen to you? Well you must not be Thomas Shepherd, who's getting pretty used to being tugged into the multiverse against his will at this point. Sorry, Tommy Maximoff. Shepherd Who? He's always been Tommy Maximoff. And right now, he's trying to sneak past mom through the kitchen, because it's almost 11 and he should have been home an hour ago. Maybe if he goes really fast. ]
