LIVE

you know the moment that happens in most clichés: the accidental spill of coffee on someone’s shirt and providing a shirt to them. well, what if the coffee spilled on both of person aandperson b’s shirts? and that they have to buy a new shirts for each other because they don’t have extra clothing on them? oh, look there’s a 2 for 1 sale! HEY, LET’S MATCH OUTFITS-

person aknowsperson b steals their clothes often. so, taking that as an advantage: they slip small notes into the pockets of the clothing article. now, whenever person b stealsperson a’s clothes, they find a small note and falls in love with person a more.

person a can’t smile. well, they can but it’s more like a straight line whenever they smile. that’s why no one gets to see a ‘proper’ smile from person a because it isn’t really present. so, smiling at strangers who did something nice or catched their eye is an experience person a doesn’t want to relive. however, person ahelpedperson b carry their groceries and person b flashed them a smile: thanking them for helping them. this is when person a tries to smile awkwardly for 20 seconds while person b thinks their smile is charming.

college professors make the lectures so boring that sometimes their voices just fade into the back of person a’s thoughts. sometimes theyre tired and wanna do something else but cant because they dont wanna fail. however, this rainy morning, person a notices that a classmate: person b, who is seated right in front of them; is watching a movie. person a watches, too, though, not knowing what the characters are saying and after a few minutes, person b looks back and notices person a is staring at their screen: this amazing person – who is person b – puts the subtitles on and makes person a fall for them.

mental illness sucks and the only way for person a to calm it down is to listen to music: on the highest volume; to drown deep inside the soft hums and well-thought lyrics. whats weird is that person a is also clumsy and theyre very surprised that they never bump into anything whenever theyre lost in the music. well, until they bumped into a street lamp. a visible, throbbing bump on their head and then, they meet their soulmate: person b, who rushes over to person a asking if they want to come over so they can treat it. of course, stunned by person b’s beauty and kindness: person a delightfully nods until they remember how much pain it did to move it because of the bump; and yet, it doesnt really hurt due to the soft giggles from person b.

the only thing person aandperson b wants to do after their exams is to watch frozen two: now, they’re randomly singing ‘into the unknown’ everywhere they go, and everyone who witnesses this just wants to shove a slipper up their asses.

“I promised to protect you, once.”

“It may be too late to make things right. But at least I can keep you safe.”

“You know you want to sing along.”

“Shut up. No I don’t.”

“… I will if you will.”

“… You’re on.”

Person A of your BROTP is injured. Does Person B go to comfort them? Go after the people who took them? Utterly fall apart at their stronger friend being in such a state?

“… We expected you two to try to kill each other.”

“Did we not tell you that we’ve been best friends for twenty years? Oops.” 

“Hey, you’ve done some hacking, right? Look, I get that you’ve changed your stripes and all, but something about our new teammates isn’t adding up.”

“… Give me half an hour.” 

Anonymous Asked: “hi! prompts for best friends who got into a fight but will become friends again? :D” 

1. “How could you do this to me? I think I deserve to know what was going through your head.”

“Look, I want to tell you. Really. But I don’t know if you’ll listen.”

2. “I didn’t say what you think I said. I promise, I’d never say that to you.”

“Are you sure? Because I think I heard you pretty clearly.”

3. “Oh, don’t look at me like that! You’re the one who just stopped talking to me afterward!” 

“Me? I didn’t hear from you for months after that day.” 

4. “We don’t have time to argue. I guess you’ll just have to trust me. Or pretend that you do, for five minutes.” 

“I shouldn’t trust you anymore. I wish I didn’t.” 

5. “You said that you hated me.” 

“What are you talking about?”

6. “I need your help. I know that I have no right to show up here at all after what I did, much less-”

“Come on in. I’ll get you some tea.” 

7. “Look, I know things are… Complicated right now. But I really don’t want to leave you crying alone. Want me to sit with you?”

“…. Please.” 

8. “I know that you hate me, but-”

“I never hated you. I was just hurt.” 

9. “I don’t want to lose my best friend over a stupid fight.” 

“I’m your best friend?”

“I haven’t told you everything.”

“I know, and I love you. You’ll tell me when you’re ready.”

Anon Asked, “Hi! I’m sorry if this is a little specific, but I just have a prompt request where it’s a medieval setting and Person A is a prince while Person B is their bodyguard, but there’s no romance between them and they’re just good bros. Once again, I’m sorry if this is a little too specific but all I can find are otp prompts. Thank you in advance!” 

1. “Seriously? They could have killed you back there.”

“I knew you’d take care of it.” 

2. “I think that stopping you from running away from the palace in the middle of the night with a band of pirates is covered under bodyguard duties.” 

“You could always come with us.” 

3. “Your father doesn’t like that you treat me as a friend.”

4. “Why are you grinning like that?”

“Someone offered me my weight in gold to betray you tonight. We can split it, if you like.” 

“Do I even want to know what you did to them?”

“My job.” 

5. “It’s time for you to leave. We will not win this. I order you as your prince.”

“And as your friend, I refuse. If you’d like to fire me after this is over, it’s all well and good; I’d rather like a vacation, after all of this nonsense.” 

6. “You shouldn’t speak to me like that. You are royalty, and our friendship is-”

“I have long considered you my brother. And I will not betray family to anyone… Not even those who share my blood.” 

7. “Rough night?”

“One of those where I just want to throw off my crown and burn the palace to ash rather than deal with political drama for one minute more.”

“… Come on. Let’s spar for a bit.” 

8. “You’re lucky, you know? You could just… Leave. Walk out that door and disappear. If I tried that, I’d wind up dead within a week because some neighboring king borrowed my head.”

“And that’s what you have me for.” 

9. “The king is going to try to kill you.”

“Why are you telling me this? You work for him.”

“I chose my side a long time ago.” 

10. “I’ve lost it all: my kingdom, my crown, my claim to my family… What do I have left?”

“An annoying bodyguard that found some shelter, for one.” 

“You should leave me. Everyone else has, and I certainly can’t pay you.” 

“Hm. Interesting thoughts, but no. Now shut up and get to the shelter.”

requested by: @ruby-serpent

Feel free to use and reblog!

#6 - Person A seeks an academic rival as motivation to do better in their studies and Person B seems like an ideal candidate, B is quite irritated by the sudden competition, it takes quite a while to convince B that the rivalry is more of a compliment than anything else

#7 - getting along much better as soon as they don’t share the same classes anymore

#8 - bonding over something they’re both not good at after years of rivalry in their strongest subjects

#9 - being similarly irked and fascinated by the other’s productivity and discipline

#10 - Person A needs to get a top grade on a group work assignment so they have no other choice as to ask Person B, their greatest academic rival, to do it together. They seem to get along better than both of them have thought
