Join Me for a Contrived Premise - Reuben Crouch - June 24, 2021
I'm reading the 5th Bridgerton book and it's got me itching to develop a relationship under exceptionally contrived circumstances. Here's the example from the book, which I'll put in spoiler tags even though it's literally in the first chapter and on the inside cover blurb xD
The circumstances would depend pretty heavily on which characters are involved so that's all up for discussion! While obviously the Bridgerton version is a romance, I don't necessarily need these two characters to fall in love — they might fall in hate or become friends or whatever. I just want to get two characters stuck together with a ridiculous premise and see what happens.
Candidates from my bunch include: Bellamy Echelon Domitian Zabini Fortitude Greengrass Gideon Ollivander Henrietta Cartwright @"Juliana Binns"

I'm desperately short in single men, my only person who might work is Elizabeth Cardew, her family are upper middle, but their finances are strained by having SO many kids. Lizzy is all pragmatism and could read a plain speaking letter on it's face value.

@Dante I'm not trying to recreate that exact premise, just the vague romcom feeling of how the relationship starts. Like a meet-cute except it's a miniplot instead of a thread and it doesn't necessarily end in romance.
For example...
KIDNAPPING? Character A accidentally kidnaps character B & through some magical or Muggle means they're stuck together for hours/days before they can return to their lives. Gets some (trauma?)bonding initially plus they have to devise a cover story on their return to society.
Anyone want to kidnap me?

I have: Delight Urquart, @"Helga Scamander", Raphael Malfoy, and Bella Scrimgeour who could be funny in their own ways!

I can offer Anthony Delaney or Demelza McGonagall for your interest?

I was like lol, tycho accidentally kidnaps ford and they're stuck in Foreign Country A for a while because their wands broke but they get along so well I don't think there would be much trauma in the end xD

Ok, hear me out: Ben/Bella. I'll Skype you some thoughts
(Doesn't exactly fill the itch of a brand new connection devised under contrived premises so I may be back for someone else also xD)
Also @Kit: lmao let's do it anyway sometime <3
