* / (somewhat) romantic dark / horror plots 🔪
most of these plots are based on ideas from horror movies & thrillers, in which there should be trigger warnings for those sort of plots: blood, gore, m*rder, death, stalking, etc. these can be taken in a romantic way or not ! be reminded that this is just fiction & a way for you to explore the darker parts of muses.
CONSTANT CRAVING.
muse a has been stalking muse b for years, but it hasn’t been extremely insidious. in fact, at this point it seems like muse a knows muse b more than they know themselves. it’s like a soft little security blanket that muse b begins to miss because they seem to be stalking them less and less. so they try to figure out who muse a is to see why they’ve stopped.
BURY A FRIEND.
all throughout high school and college, muse a was bullied by their group of friends... except no one really knew, and just assumed that they were a regular part of that group. unknown to anyone, muse b begins to kill off that friend group and muse a thinks that they’re next. what they don’t know is that they’re the reason their friends are dying: muse b noticed the bullying, and wanted to put a stop to it.
NIGHT SHIFT.
there was a kidnapping gone wrong, and for whatever reason muse a was picked up by a group of serial killers. but when muse b is expected to watch over them, things don’t go as planned. muse a is incredibly witty and spunky, and begins to seduce muse b so that they can figure out a way to escape.
TWO LONELY HEARTS.
there is a twisted person on the loose who keeps picking up people and keeping them locked in a house. for only a few weeks it has only been muse a and muse b living in the house, and even though they try they just can’t seem to find a way out. they have plenty of food and water, and the house is fully functioning. at first they can’t stand living with each other, but after weeks of being together something changes.
WE’RE NO GOOD.
through sheer coincidence, two hitmen have been happily married. in a turn-around of events, these two muses have gotten new assignments. both are incredibly large payouts; enough to put away for 10 college funds and then some. the only problem is... both of their targets are each other. and neither of them know that they’re stalking each other.
ANOTHER VERSION OF ME.
back when they were dating, muse a genetically engineered a tracker that they put in their lover’s dna so that they could track wherever muse b ‘released’. muse a completely forgot about it until they broke up... it was not mutual. muse b had moved on, but muse a wanted to get back at them: so muse a began to track them and everyone they got intimate with. and every single person muse b sleeps with ends up murdered.
UNTOUCHABLE FACE.
modern technology is a great thing, especially how far virtual reality has come. with ‘nexus programs’ anyone can connect their brain to a small chip and be fully immersed in their video game world. whether it be a fantasy world, racing, or one of those popular shooter games! and that’s how muse a and muse b meet. and they quickly realize that it really is fully immersive. bonus points if they know each other in real life, but don’t know who’s playing the characters.
