[notmorbid]

off-campus: season 1.

dialogue prompts from the first season of prime's off-campus.

you are intolerable.

do not give me the silent treatment.

nobody is expecting you to be _____.

take a shower. you smell like shit.

it'll come back to you. like riding a bike.

did anyone ever tell you that eavesdropping is rude?

has anyone ever told you your references are dated?

i'll pick out your outfit, you just do your makeup.

i plead the fifth.

i am always telling you to wear your jacket. you never do.

how do you suddenly know my name?

you can't just kiss me out of the blue.

you blush whenever i come near you.

get over yourself. i don't blush.

my single ass needs another drink.

this is the part where i tell you all the things i want to do to you when we're alone.

you're just giving me the bed because you feel bad for me.

i wouldn't know who i am without it.

you centered me.

you're overthinking. get out of your head.

you can put me down now. we all know how much you can bench.

i don't need your pity. i don't need you to be my therapist.

what if i'm broken?

if you're going to chase an impossible dream, chase one that actually matters.

this party's kind of dead, right?

are you driving, or shall i?

i think people can change, if they want to.

if i go, will you come with me?

you can't let the bad memories erase the good ones.

do you never have a shirt on?

people who care about you will understand. if they don't, they're not your people.

you said this wasn't a date. it feels like a date.

god, it's so hot when someone knows what they want.

this is a party. parties are supposed to be fun.

stop fucking with my head.

i'm a girl. i have to think about what everybody else is feeling before i can figure out what i'm feeling.

don't think. tell me what you want.

you scare the shit out of them, you know.

look how hard they're trying to please you.

you really can't be alone, can you?

can we hit dairy queen on the way home?

i can't take on anyone else's stress today. i'm emotionally raw. i'm a shell of a woman.

i don't know what your problem is, but i suggest you do whatever it takes to work it out.

we have to cling to the people who see us and smile.

just let me know you're okay.

we're on the same team. don't you get that?

don't you want to know what being single and slutty has to offer you?

let's start with the small stuff and work our way up, okay?

you didn't do anything wrong.

it has recently come to my attention that i'm a serial monogamist.

i'm actually so proud, i could cry.

what kind of _____ do you want to be?

have fun. do stuff just 'cause you want to.

i told you to stop opening my mail.

who says print media is dead?

i don't want you to look at me differently, or treat me differently.

i always knew. i just thought you'd tell me when you were ready.

you're not just one thing. you're everything.

the words will come when they come.

you reminded me of who i used to be.

you could be anywhere, doing anything, but you're not. you're here.

hey, look at me. i got you. i got you, okay?

i don't want to be that guy.

you're not as dumb as you look.

stop being chicken shit and tell _____ how you feel.

i know i said i was dropping out, but can i maybe drop back in?

i couldn't miss your big moment, could i?

i want to be more like you.

rise mia nation rise

[aratsaka]

he’s come a long way from being a merc slumming it on the streets, uploading music and hoping for a a break while he took jobs he hated. after almost dying, he took a chance and it worked — years later, he’d finally broken the market and had some clients. truthfully, mia wasn’t his choice of client, but she was paying him well. he only had his position now because someone gave him a chance, so he figures he should return the favor.

“ hey mia, thanks for having me. ” this was his first podcast ever, and he already feels so awkward. long fingers grip the mic stand as he rotates it towards him, and without trying, a very shocked look shows on his face at her question. “ god, i don’t know, let me think about that… the craziest place i’ve ever hooked up? probably the desk in my office. sorry to any of my former coworkers. ” mack pauses, tapping his chin. “ no, let me change that. i hooked up with a girl in a porta potty at coachella once. ” he nods, starting to laugh. “ is that crazy enough for you? ”

[acfluence]

The first admission is relatively tame — given other confessions she's heard while doing the podcast, it's a nothing-burger. The porta-potty, though? That makes her eyes widen, features scrunching as her head juts backward in shock. "A porta-potty?!" She parrots, her own laughter starting to spill out. Before she can even contain herself, she's nearly jumping up and down in her plushy velvet chair. "That's actually really crazy and you can't just leave it on that note!"

Trying to regain any sense of composure, Mia forces herself to settle down — grabs the Hydroflask resting on the end table beside her and takes a few sips. Setting it back down, more chuckles continue to spill out of her mouth. [So much for that composure she was trying to grab.] Clearing her throat, she repositions herself back to her original posture before acting like a professional podcaster again. "No, but seriously, you gotta get more in depth here! When was this? How did this happen? I'm assuming you were probably on drugs if you're fucking inside a Coachella porta-potty, because I've been inside those things before — this is horrifying thought to me. They're so fucking small too!" She's really invested in this, which means, the audience will be invested!

i’m gonna write more later but if anyone wants to plot, hiiiii

Can we hit dairy queen on the way home? @aratsaka

She blinks once, twice, and then a third time for good measure. Did she hear him right? From the confusion, Mia rubs her eyes a few times rather than check her hearing. Completely dumbfounded, she takes a step back from her music producer as her eyes narrow. "You seriously want to go to a Dairy Queen?" She repeats, trying to wrap her mind around it. "Let me remind you that I'm rich, we could have any ice cream in the whole world — like ... we could board a private plane and go to Milan for real gelato if we really wanted to. And you're asking for DQ?"

It'll come back to you. Like riding a bike. future demetrius jackson blog!!!

It's been nearly ten years since Mia Erdling has been credited for anything. Her last IMDB listing was from 2016, a short indie film from a director she'd never heard of — money had been tight at that point, Mi-Mi's Mansion having been pulled off the air in light of her Prada shoplifting scandal. She hadn't acted in almost ten years, and now, she had been offered a guest appearance in a television show. Some popular show with the teen-demographic involving the supernatural. They'd initially insisted on her playing herself as a brief cameo, but when one of the cast members brought up her childhood acting background, it somehow morphed into her becoming the antagonist of the episode. A starch contrast to Hollywood's once famous daughter. [Although, more fitting for her current reputation in time.] Seated at a table inside Sushi Park, waiting for their food to arrive, Mia takes a sip of her sake as her head shakes slowly. "Is it bad I'm not entirely convinced?"

There are few people in this world Mia can be honest and transparent with. Completely and fully herself. [Loyalty in the spotlight is hard to come by and even harder to maintain.] One of those people is Jackson Calloway. "Like, I was a child star — I acted in a fucking SuNbRiGhT PrOdUcTiOn." She mimics the upbeat tone she once used when filming her middle-of-episode commercials. [Hi, I'm Mia Erdling from Mi-Mi's Mansion and you're watching the Sunbright channel! Insert a picture of the fucking sun here!] Taking another sip of her sake, Mia nearly downs the entire thing in a single sip this time. "I know I did some other work before but, this is ... like, different. What if I ride said-bike and I end up mowing over half of Los Angeles?"

[acfluence]

Who says print media is dead? @archestypes

Mia can tell this is a touchy subject for him by the way he's responding. It makes honing in on the point even more fun for her. "A lot of people on Tiktok and Instagram reels." She answers matter-of-factly. The blonde can't personally remember the last time she saw a newspaper, let alone picked one up. Getting her news through an Instagram reel or Tiktok, even a tweet? That happened more than she could possibly count. Sometimes, she was the one breaking some type of news in her own videos — whether it be about a new brand deal, a guest appearance on a podcast, her own podcast announcements, or another various thing. To her fans, that was a form of news. The same applies to books for her, too — she couldn't remember the last time she picked up a physical copy of a novel. She would just purchase it off the Books app on her phone. "It might not already be dead, but it is dying."

Five years ago, the average person could walk into their local grocery store and in the entertainment section, find a box set of her show Mi-Mi's Mansion for below twenty bucks. It was usually on clearance. Nowadays, a person can't find it for less than a hundred on eBay. [Or they can spend twenty bucks on Sunbright's streaming app and watch the whole series that way. Or pirate it.] The same concept, though different in nature, applies to print media. "The internet's made everything so easily accessible — so has streaming, even pirating. Who wants to pay for something physical or printed when you can just ... get it for free online." She rattles off, her shoulders rising into a dismissive shrug. "The kids basically say print media is for boomers."

The intro of her podcast plays out [welcome back to the latest episode of Meetings with Mia!] and in the process, Mia's quick to apply one coat of lipgloss before the microphone goes live on her end. "And on today's episode, my guest host is someone whose name you've probably heard of if you follow the music industry, especially recently. He's producing my debut studio album! Please give it up for composer and music producer, Mackenzie Verona!" The producers settled on the opposite side of the set applaud and cheer. A few whoops and aw, yeahs that cause Mia to visible react: first a cringe, then a roll of her eyes, finally having to hold back an exasperated sigh from her microphone.

"Thanks for being my guest host today, Mack. I always like to open up with an icebreaker for my guest host — something that establishes we're friends, you and the listeners are friends, and we're all in this episode together." [Some lousy producer in the distance sings out we're all in this together! Mia makes a mental note to fire that idiot after filming.] She forces a smile and dives straight in with her icebreaker. "Where's the craziest place you've ever hooked up at? And if you don't mind spilling the deets, what's the story behind it?"
