plots based off of lorde’s melodrama
green light ; i’m waiting for it, that green light, i want it.
MUSE A and MUSE B were in a happy relationship for some time, until MUSE B was caught cheating, not ready to be in a committed relationship. now MUSE A is heartbroken and going out every night in hopes of forgetting MUSE B. meanwhile, MUSE B is regretting their actions and letting MUSE A go. but can they really be forgiven and are they ready — ready to give each other that green light ?
sober ; we pretend that we just don’t care but we care.
MUSE A and MUSE B aren’t supposed to be together for whatever reason: maybe one is in a relationship, maybe they had a deal, maybe it’s something that goes deeper. but one intoxicated night out leads to several touches and secretive kisses in the dark that tastes a lot like treason. and no matter how much they say it’s nothing serious, there might be more there than they’re willing to admit.
homemade dynamite ; i’ll give you my best side, tell you all my best lies.
known for being rebels without cause, MUSE A and MUSE B are synonymous to their fast cars, nights out beneath the stars, empty bottles of alcohol, and loud music. they meet by chance one night and immediately click, and embark on a careless adventure after it despite not knowing each other. it’s them against the world: after all, what could go wrong ?
the louvre ; blow all my friendships to sit in hell with you.
MUSE A and MUSE B have just hit the honeymoon stage of their relationship and everything seems to be perfect. late nights out, lots of pda, dream dates every day — they’re so caught up in each other that the entire world seems to lose significance. but everything that comes up must come down, even with their heads in the clouds.
liability ; you’re all gonna watch me disappear into the sun.
all of MUSE A’s relationships seem to fall apart before they even begin. they’re used to being used, but if anything it has only made MUSE A love themselves more as armour around their breaking heart. MUSE B comes along and recognizes that MUSE A is a bit of a handful with their high demands and closed off demeanor, but are they willing to try anyway ?
hard feelings ; let’s give it a minute before we admit that we’re through.
after a long and happy relationship, both MUSE A and MUSE B know they’re coming to an end. they’ve simply fallen out of love, but after having been each others homes for so long, giving each other up doesn’t seem to be an option, and so they hold on with all they’ve got.
loveless ; all fuckin’ with our lovers’ heads.
both MUSE A and MUSE B don’t really do committed relationships and have quite the list of hearts they have broken. one night out they spot each other and think the other, beautiful as they are, will be another easy target. little do they know they’re playing the same game with someone’s who’s just as good as them.
sober ii ( melodrama ) ; how we kiss and kill each other.
MUSE A and MUSE B’s relationship is built up on dim lit rooms and a bit too much alcohol flowing through their veins, and somehow they have made it work. but a defining moment makes them realize that they can’t live like this forever, without properly knowing the other, and at some point the lights must come on again — and maybe secrets will be exposed that makes their story a lot less beautiful than they initially thought.
writer in the dark ; did my best to exist just for you.
MUSE B walked out on MUSE A after a long relationship together. MUSE A had given their all in the relationship and standing without it now is making them realize just how lost they feel and that they need to move on in order to be happy. but there’s a part of them that’s still hoping MUSE B will return, and though MUSE B is with someone else now, they too might feel the undeniable pull back.
supercut ; i’m someone you maybe might love.
both MUSE A and MUSE B can tell something is wrong with their relationship. they argue about everything and can’t seem to ever get along or even talk about their problems. yet, there are the occasional sweet moments that seem to make it all worth it, and at the end of the day they’re ready to endure all the fighting and pain just to keep each other close.
liability ( reprise ) ; but you’re not what you thought you were.
MUSE A has always lived with the belief that they’ll never find happiness and that no one can ever love them. they’re convinced no one will ever want to make sense of all that they are and have grown used to giving themselves away without never receiving anything in return. MUSE B is seeing everything about MUSE A that they can’t see themselves, and they intend to make them see just how wonderful they are.
perfect places ; what the fuck are perfect places anyway ?
a group of friends ( perfect for a mumu or a small group rp ) are all looking for something, but they’re not quite sure what yet — maybe just an escape from their tough reality. they’re young and they intend to live as if every night is their last. drugs, sex, and alcohol might feel like perfect places, and the parties drown out the loneliness, but they’ll soon realize that there is no such thing as a perfect place.
