Day 1: Love Language | How do the characters show their love? How do they prefer to receive it?

Day 2: Unrequited | Feelings are not always mutual. Break our hearts with unrequited love between your characters.

Day 3: Fake Dating | Whether it be canon or AU, your chosen characters need to pretend to date for whatever reason and just maybe the line between real and fake blurs along the way.

Day 4: Forced Proximity | Whether it be one bed, a locked door, or stranded in a cave—your characters can’t get away from each other. What happens?

Day 5: Parents | Pregnancy was highly requested but I wanted to keep this inclusive so whether it’s the accidental pregnancy trope or adopting an orphan, show us your characters becoming parents!

Day 6: Second Chance | Whether your characters are exes or childhood sweethearts, they get another chance at love.
