Dramatic or cracky, there are options for everyone who has a sudden itching to play out some ships.

↘ Post your character below, listing their name and series in the subject.
↘ Others respond after going to random.org and entering 1-16 for a scene or just picking one that seems appropriate

● 01 I HAVE A CONFESSION | There's someone you really like and it's finally time to tell them! It can be spur of the moment or elaborately planned out.
● 02 START OF SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL | You've just got together and everything is great! You can't stop thinking about each other or keep your hands off your significant other. You want to spend all the time you can together, doing whatever!
● 03 CAN'T GET IT UP | It happens to everyone, honest! For whatever reason, you just haven't been able to perform or maybe you're just not interested in sex. Is it because things are dull? Is it because you're not attracted to your partner? Or have you just been too busy or stressed out?
● 04 SAW YOU LAST NIGHT | You think you saw your partner in the arms of another - was it an honest mistake or is something honestly going on here?
● 05 FIRST TIME | It's the first kiss or the first time making love with your partner and you're so nervous and awkward, you're sure you'll mess it up! Maybe you do, but that's okay... they like you, right?
● 06 ANNIVERSARY | Two week, two month, two year, or whatever number you decide, that's how long you've been together with your partner and you want to do something special to celebrate it!
● 07 WANT YOU BACK | You broke up, but it was a mistake. You need to correct it ASAP... will your lover take you back though?
● 08 JUST MARRIED | Just married! Is it the wedding night? The honeymoon? You decide!
● 09 BAD ROMANCE | You're no good for each other and you know it! Unfortunately, your relationship is so sizzling, you can't break it off and you don't even want to.
● 10 FIGHT | You're both in one of those moods where you just want to sit around fighting over every little thing... bills or money, friends, your partner staying out too late, or whatever you can think of!
● 11 LET'S MAKE UP | Of course making up is the best part though! Whatever it was is totally forgotten now.
● 12 HONEY, I'M... | You've been feeling a little funny for a bit, so you take a pregnancy test and... oh no! Or is it 'oh great!'? Time to tell your partner either way...
● 13 ABOUT LAST NIGHT | Time to face that one night stand...
● 14 CHEATER | You're not being cheated on! You're the other person meddling with someone's lover! But for whatever reason, you just can't say no even if you know you should...
● 15 OBJECTIONS | You're facing a lot of objections to your relationship and it's starting to put a strain on it. Why don't you sit down and discuss it, see if you can work it out?
● 16 HAVE TO LET YOU GO | You have to break up with your partner... not because you want to! But because you need to protect them... can you do it successfully? Will they find out? You decide!

[He considers that, and disengages reluctantly to write.]

[Komesh is already heading off to the ablution block, though slowly enough that his message can be read as he goes. He's a little curious himself, though it wouldn't make a difference. Maybe for little things like the best water temperature for a comfortable washing, but not otherwise.]

[Lyn gets up and follows Komesh, still holding the wriggler. He's amazed by how light it is...jegus, it really is incredibly little. How old? A couple perigees, if that?]

I guess... [Lyn sounds dubious. He's used to mostly acquiring things by stealing; certainly not by ordering things online. That would require giving an address, which he doesn't exactly have. Worse, Lyn isn't sure what resources even exist for trolls taking care of a wriggler - that isn't how it usually works, so how much advice or supplies are they likely to find?] Also, what do you mean, warm?

[He starts drawing the water once he puts his pad down, smiling back at Lyn and the wiggler. So cute.]

Oh. [Lyn feels like a bit of an idiot for not realizing Komesh was asking about the water temperature.] Yeah, s'fine if you're okay with it. [The thing about him not dealing well with cold is sadly true. Lyn's too small and too thin to hold his body heat well; anything below temperate and he gets miserable quickly.] And I guess we wouldn't really want to go hot or cold anyway until we know what caste the wriggler is. [Not that Lyn is any sort of expert on wrigglers, but surely something this tiny and fragile has to be pretty susceptible to extreme temperatures, right?

He flushes a bit under that smile of Komesh's. He knows damn well he's probably being given some level of adorable rating in the other troll's thinkpan(although there's always the chance that Komesh is only directing the gaze at the wriggler). Generally, he hates being thought of as cute in any way...but if it's an affectionate observation from someone he likes, he'll usually let it slide. It's rare enough for people to genuinely like anything about him (and for him to like them back) that he's not going to risk calling whatever it is they do like about him into question.]

[He draws the water, keeping it shallow enough that the wiggler can move on his own without much chance of drowning. They'll be watching after all.

Then he waves Lyn over with another smile, his hands too wet to bother with writing.]

[Lyn walks over to the ablution trap, and...finds himself almost reluctant to set the wriggler down. Part of it is, he suspects, extended paranoia; the idea that anything this small and helpless can survive without hyper-vigilant care and protection seems ludicrous, and the particularly neurotic parts of his pan are half-convinced something will happen to the wriggler as soon as it leaves his arms. The rest of it is...probably affection, although it seems insane that he could've formed an attachment to this little thing so fast.

But it's so goddamn small.

Hesitantly, he lowers it into the water, looking somewhat uncertainly at Komesh for confirmation that he's doing the right thing. He's well outside the realm of appearing tough/cool right now, and normally that would bother him, but those concerns are currently being overridden by more pressing ones. Maintaining his reputation, while something he's always put a lot of emphasis on, does tend to take a backseat when the actual welfare of someone else is involved. It's why he always gets flustered and stops being a jerk (briefly) whenever he genuinely upsets trolls like Nikkal.]

[Komesh gives him his best attempt at a reassuring smile, leaning in close and gently helping support the wiggler as it gets lowered into the water.

He squeezes one of Lyn's hands and then very, very carefully starts scooping water to trickle over the wigglers back.

His smile goes knowing when the wiggler squeaks and tries to rear up at the water. A little fighter.]
