1. muse a and muse b are summer camp counselors and bunkmates. they meet during pre-summer orientation week and instantly connect, and throughout the summer they get into all kinds of shenanigans while taking care of the kids in their cabin. they usually sneak out at night when the campers are asleep and steal food from the mess hall or go skinny dipping in the lake which almost always ends in sex (bonus points if muse a is a returning pro, and muse b is the newbie who has no clue what they’re doing.)
2. muse a is a merman, one of the most beautiful of his kind. muse b is a pirate captain, with a thirst to become the most rich and infamous of all and bring glory to his father by proving the existence of the merfolk. muse a is captured by muse b’s crew, and locked away in a massive fish tank inside the captain’s quarters until they reach land. however, muse b falls for muse a, and the two grow closer and closer until they reach the shore, and the captain allows him to be set free. (muse a could also be a siren who wants revenge on muse b, a hunter of merfolk.) (sex could happen if it’s canon that all merfolk are able to grow human anatomy when dry, or whatever you decide.)
3. muse a is the CEO’s assistant at a company, when suddenly the CEO dies. their son, muse b (also muse a’s best friend/high school bully/ex/whatever) takes over the company, and in turn, inherits muse a as an assistant. this ensues awkward tension between the two, leading to arguments and also heated make out sessions and sex in the office
4. muse a is the soft boy aesthetic, sweaters and neutral colors and curly hair and cuddles. their best friend, muse b, is the jock type, athletic shorts and school colors and slicked back hair and rough-housing. muse a is openly gay and kind of made fun of for it, living in a small town, and prom is coming up next month. muse b, being the big sweetheart that he is, asks muse a to prom so he won’t have to go alone. they go to prom, have a great time, and then go back to the car afterwards and get drunk, where one of them admits their feelings for the other. ensue the angst of unrequited love, muse b coming out, drunk makeout sessions and sex in the car, waking up the next morning in the school parking lot half naked on top of each other with a dead battery.
5. muse a is the closeted preacher’s son, always looking prim and proper while trying to work up the courage to come out, and face the possible excommunication from his parents. he’s dating a girl to hide the fact that he’s gay. muse b is the new guy in town, who comes to church with his mom (who seems really cool and accepting despite the fact that he’s openly gay, unlike anyone else in the small town.) he’s a bit of a bad boy rebel, and takes muse a out into the city where he’s from. they visit a club and muse a gets drunk off his ass, and comes out to muse b, who takes him to his house and lets him sleep in his bed while he’s on the couch. when muse a wakes up, he panics, only vaguely remembering the night before. muse b doesn’t mention that he came out to him, just takes care of him--until muse a comes out to him while sober, and they sneak around being secret about their relationship.
