::**HALSEY PLOTS
To celebrate the one-year anniversary of susierpt, I had you all vote on what you wanted me to do â and a masterlist of plot bunnies inspired by Halsey songs won! Feel free to use these ideas, and if you like them, a like or a reblog is much appreciated. Thanks for one year of RPT, everyone!
trouble: muse a and muse b are in a tempestuous, destructive relationship. the two raise hell together by day, but by night, behind closed doors, they argue and fight all the time, muse a seeming to almost take pleasure in tormenting muse b. but despite how awful muse a can be, muse b stays with them, the passion and excitement of the relationship intoxicating them. muse b will gladly allow muse a to set them on fire â just so long as they do not leave them. muse a, in turn, is too proud to admit that they need muse b. if muse b ever did get tired of their shit and leave them, they have no idea what theyâd do. the two are trapped in a cycle thatâs headed for mutually assured destruction, but neither are willing to get themselves out.
colors: muse a is muse bâs ex. the two were together for a long time, and the relationship was a transformative one for muse a. being with muse b made them into someone new â but ultimately, muse b didnât like who that was. the two broke up, despite muse a still being very much in love. the two havenât really spoken since the breakup, but now, muse a is watching from a distance as muse b falls apart. always someone with a lot of personal demons and problems to wrestle with, it seems muse b canât cope alone, but theyâre far too proud to admit it. will muse b allow muse a back into their life to help them? and will the two ever be able to salvage their relationship â or at least their friendship? and how can muse a help when the loss of their love has left them damaged, too?
strange love: muse a and muse b run with vastly different social circles, but meet one night at a party held by a mutual acquaintance. although muse b is known for being distant, cool, and untouchable, something about muse a charms them, and the two end up talking about deep, personal matters, things they never thought theyâd discuss with anyone, let alone a complete stranger. one thing leads to another, and the two wind up hooking up in the bathroom. the next day, muse a wakes up to find out that someone captured pictures of them making out with muse b â and that theyâre all over social media. muse a and muse b now must attempt to navigate an attempt at a relationship, while dealing with the rumors and gossip surrounding them.
roman holiday: muse a and muse b are childhood friends. grew up next door to each other, went through school together, played games together, the whole shebang. they also found refuge in one another from their awful family situations, both coming from abusive households. one day, after the two have finished high school, it becomes too much. muse a shows up at muse bâs bedroom window in the middle of the night, after a particularly bad night with their parents, and tells muse b theyâre leaving forever â and they want muse b to come with them. the two pack their things, get in muse aâs car, and drive off into the night, intent on never seeing their parents again. the further they drive, the less they can deny their own romantic feelings towards each other, and soon, it becomes the vacation from reality that theyâd always dreamed of; far away from their parents, happily kissing and sleeping curled up with each other in the backseat. but vacations from reality canât last forever⊠right?
ghost: muse a is a self-described âbad influence,â and they warned muse b as much when they first got involved. at first, the relationship was passionate, fun, and loving, but over time, muse b watched muse a become less and less interested in them. soon, their relationship went from committed and exclusive to open and casual â but still possessive. both claim that they are ânon-exclusiveâ and can sleep with other people, and both do, but muse b is still far more invested in the relationship. still, neither of them can bring themselves to break it off completely. no matter how many other people they sleep with, muse a will always come back to muse b for âone last fuck,â and no matter how much they claim to hate muse a, muse b will always let them.
100 letters: muse a was a very, very bad partner to muse b. always tearing them down and insulting them, and making them feel alone. finally, muse b got sick of this shit, and walked out, finally standing up for themselves. now, muse a wants them back, but muse b isnât having it. muse a sends muse b a letter every single day, declaring their love, ignoring muse b as they threatened to take them to court for stalking them. whose patience will snap first?
eyes closed: muse a and muse b used to be dating, but broke up. muse a is over it, but muse b isnât. to cope, muse b has thrown themselves into a relationship with muse c â and it isnât working. although muse c is devoted to them, muse b still has feelings for muse a, and just canât seem to move on. torn between wanting to win muse a back and avoid hurting muse c, muse b stays in their unfulfilling relationship, stringing muse c along further just to avoid being alone.
coming down: muse a was in a really bad situation when they met muse b, and muse be managed to âsaveâ them somehow. this resulted in muse a falling hopelessly in love with them. although muse b cares for them, the feeling isnât entirely mutual. itâs unclear how much of muse aâs devotion to muse b is actual love, and how much is just gratitude. either way, muse b is perfectly willing to exploit it, using muse aâs devotion to them to get things done â no matter how unpleasant or outright immoral.
hurricane: muse a is a player, preying on younger, vulnerable people, using them for sex before moving on to the next one, muse b is their karma. muse b is fiercely independent, and actively seeks out muse a, because they know they can count of them for meaningless sex. however, muse a falls fast and hard for muse b, and is now given a taste of their own medicine when they find themselves chasing a relationship with someone who doesnât care for them at all.
strangers: two girls, muse a and muse b, have begun a secret relationship, hiding it from their family and friends. muse a wouldnât mind keeping it a secret, if muse b wouldnât stop insisting that this isnât, in fact, a relationship. muse b claims that itâs just a meaningless fling, but muse a isnât convinced. muse a wants muse b to commit to them, even if not publicly, but muse b refuses â at least, for now.
young god: muse a is the child of a cop, and a total goody-goody. theyâve never broken the rules in their life, and believes in the police force as the ultimate force for good. muse b, however, has other ideas. muse b has fashioned themselves a vigilante, tracking down and punishing criminals themselves, changing the world, one assault at a time. when muse a and muse b begin to fall for each other, muse b persuades muse a to question the law for the first time, and join their crusade. but muse b isnât exactly a pinnacle of goodness or justice, no matter how hard they try, and their life is a dangerous one. muse a wants to help them change the world, but how far is too far?
closer: okay, you know this one. muse a and muse b went out for awhile a few years ago, but split up for whatever reason. now, years later, they find each other again in a hotel bar. despite all the reasons the relationship failed the first time, the two decide to get back together again â just for one night. for one night, theyâll pretend their breakup never happened, and that the outside world doesnât exist.
sorry: muse a is a very insecure person. for a variety of reasons, they believe that no one will ever truly love them. muse b, however, is determined to prove them wrong. but years and years of feeling completely alone and unlovable donât vanish overnight, and muse a frequently pulls away from muse b, expecting that soon, theyâll leave anyway. unfortunately, this has become a form of self-sabotage â the more muse a expects muse b to leave, the more they withdraw, and the more muse b does actually consider leaving.Â
bad at love: muse a is someone whoâs suffered a lot of personal problems and heartbreak, and has been left a broken, lonely, dysfunctional person. convinced that finding their soulmate will âfixâ them, theyâve gone through a lot of short-lived relationships. the latest is with muse b. muse a is, as always, convinced that this relationship will be the one to solve all their problems. muse b likes muse a, but knows that they canât save them â muse a will have to do that themselves.
