[home sweet home] returning to your world ; meme

You wake up in your bed, maybe. Somewhere. Somewhere you know.

Familiar scents fill your nose, the scents of home. You get up and look around and you come to a stunning, breath-taking (and sickening?) realization. You're home again. Somehow, just now, you were whisked away from that strange place you were, for however long you lived there, with how many people you came to know, and plunked down in your home, your own world. The bubble popped and now you're left wondering... was that even real? Could it have been?

What do you do now?

The phone's ringing. Maybe you should answer that.

How To Play

- Comment to the thread with your character. It will be their "world" they've returned to.
- Other people comment to them, reconnecting or awakening next to them in that home world.
- The where, when, setting & that sort of thing are up to you!
- Freak out, panic, try to figure what to do next.

Bonus:

- Work in a time difference, Lake House style!
- Is something off about this home world? Is it even really yours?

	Good plan. [He smiles before moving into the kitchen and setting up the breakfast they got. Nothing special, just bagels and creme cheese, and still it feels almost painfully familiar. How many times did they eat together in Marina?] Do you want anything to drink? I have some green tea, and... [Something. What did he keep in his fridge three weeks ago?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Water. [She helps him out.] Thanks. You know of anything I imagined this never made the list. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 02:22 am UTC (link)
	Yeah? [Water it is. He finds two bottles and then takes a seat. Tries to relax but never quite making it.] What did you imagine? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I didn't think i'd ever be unexpectedly tossed into someone else's world. I thought I'd stay there or there would be nothing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 03:06 am UTC (link)
	And now that you have..? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 03:10 am UTC (link)
	It's still surreal. But if it was going to be someone, I'm glad it's yours. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 03:39 am UTC (link)
	[That brings a smile to his face. Only, it falters all too soon - something's bothering him.] I'm supposed to go to work today. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 03:46 am UTC (link)
	Oh... [Work. For his life that he already has here. The one that doesn't involve her.] Well, I can stay here. I know the area now. When are you off? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 03:49 am UTC (link)
	What..? No, I'm not going. Not today. [Eventually he'll have to.] I just don't really know what to tell them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 03:52 am UTC (link)
	[She's a little relived.] Unexpected house guest? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 04:02 am UTC (link)
	Honestly? I don't think they'd believe me. [Wry smile.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 04:04 am UTC (link)
	So, truth is too strange? I guess you'll have to go with fiction then. Sick? Or they could meet me sometime. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 04:07 am UTC (link)
	I guess that would be the easiest excuse. [Oh, that gets a look. Really now?] Getting comfortable already? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 04:09 am UTC (link)
	I wouldn't mind checking a few things about your life before checking out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 04:11 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, that's not worrying at all. [Only he can't stop smiling. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 04:16 am UTC (link)
	You know better than to not be worried around me. [The smiling is a good sign. It requires kissing though. Stand back, she's got this! Actually, standing back would be counterproductive.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 07:04 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, but this is a whole new kind of worry. I actually have a reputation here. [If smiling was all it took to get kissed... well, maybe that explains why he didn't have so much luck in that department until he met her. Whodathunkit? Also, no standing back here! Come at me, bro!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 07:14 pm UTC (link)
	Now you can have an all new, exciting reputation. We can go get you new clothes. Leather pants. Chainmail shirts? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 07:25 pm UTC (link)
	[What.] Pretty sure that's not the kind of reputation I'd want. Ever. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 07:27 pm UTC (link)
	[Hey, it made her laugh. Isn't that important?] That's sad. It was kind of what I was hoping for. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-30 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	I think it'd give the wrong impression at the office. [Yes, okay. That does make it worth it.] We had an UnSub like that once, actually. Well... we've had several. The leather pants and chainmail shirt look is pretty popular among serial killers, it seems. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 07:33 pm UTC (link)
	How popular are sweatervests among serial killers? I want numbers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[This is him actually taking a moment to flip through the cases he's been involved in, and the clothing style of the offenders. Or rather, this is him pretending to do that because honestly, even Reid has his limits. ] Sorry, the percentage lands within the margin of error. It's pretty much negligible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-30 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	Which makes it smart. No one would ever suspect you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He shoots her a smile, but it doesn't quite go all the way. It's something that's crossed his mind more than once, not so much because he believes he has any kind of tendencies at all but rather because he knows how easy it is to fall. They see it all the time.

Still, he makes an effort to go with the joke. It's just harmless fun!]

Together, we'd make the perfect partners in crime. The Leopold and Loeb of our time.
