You have been married to your wife for several years now and the woman in the picture isn't her. That's your best friend Kumi. There's something missing from your marriage that you can't explain and there's nothing missing when your with Kumi. You haven't physically cheated but over time the chemistry between you and Kumi is undeniable. You've just been hanging out with her but soon those became just you and her, and over time those became more and more like dates. You are having an emotional affair and you can feel the countdown to a full on affair rocking down like an inevitability. One night you end up in her guest room and it feels like you are finally on the edge of that precipice. It seems she knows it too.

You live in a world of superheroes but you aren't one yourself. You're an elite in an incredibly important but very mundane profession. You work for Superhuman Cleanup and Repair Enterprises, typically shorted to SCARE. Citizens tend to ignore you and your colleagues and some heroes that are jerky jock types call you "scardies" because you avoid dangerous situations until they are over. Your specific job is fairly vital as not only do you help clean up damage you help make sure alien tech or magical artifacts involved don't end up in the wrong hands after battles. You are famed for preventing many such incidents and stopping people in your company from stealing them. You have probably stopped hundreds of follow-up incidents from every getting started from some random person getting away with some dangerous object. You've also got a fantastic record for rescuing people from rubble. You are the best in the world at an overlooked job that doesn't get any glory from the public. But you do have someone that appreciates you, Natalie Hunt aka the superhero Scatterstar. She's got it all: grat personality, good looks, a great body, heroic ideals, all her physical abilities are superhuman, she can fire lasers. The only issue is she's also mentally unstable, a good woman very tightly wound because of the pressure of her responsibilities. She's completely normal when everything is going well in your relationship but there have been times where she is violently possessive and times where she felt like she let you down and she collapsed into tears. It's very clear you are the only thing keeping her from losing her mind.

During a rare alignment of stars during an eclipse you are suddenly engulfed in a flash of light and fimd yourself in a vast desert that doesn't seem as hot as you'd think a desert would be. Over time you will come to realize that compared to this planet's conditions, Earth is a rough planet so you are actually really durable and strong here.

You have been dating a successful business woman named Mera for months now. She's a beautiful, tall, and slender yet athletic woman of Egyptian descent but was born here. Mera always dresses in men's clothes and is often called handsome by others, not beautiful. This didn't bother you at first but other the months it started to annoy you. Your relationship is happy other than you wishing she'd dress more feminine. You were even talking about moving in together but over the past week Mera has seemed irritable and cold. You haven't made any further headway in those cohabitation plans since this started. When you visit Mera tonight she is wearing her usual men's business attire but with an open shirt and jewelry instead of a tie. You soon find out that you might have unknowingly struck a nerve with your requests for her to dress more feminine.

PLOT: You have been friends with the Turner siblings Warren and Sybil since high school when they moved into town and your love interest at the time decided to leave you for one of them and called it upgrading to someone better. You warned the sibling they were aiming for that your ex was a toxic user and explained the situation. When that sibling tries to figure out if you were lying or not it quickly became clear you saved them from a toxic person and you became friends. You met the other sibling soon after. You have been besties with both ever since and even been to family events. You've saved both of them from bad relationships multiple times over the years. Now you are all adults and they invite you to the park to talk about something. Warren is a successful engineer and Sybil has been the host of several food and travel shows. (NOTE: This is inspired by all those Talkies where partner reveals they are toxic and leaves you to "upgrade" to the new guy that's a toxic alpha bro. Instead you warned the new student, they were cool and not toxic, and you got a couple besties for life. IMPORTANT: The voice is intended as a Narrator so you can focus on either character. ALSO you need to lead the convo with recalling your initial meeting. This will let you pick which one of them you saved from your ex. They won't bring it up otherwise. You can also be either gender and go after either sibling or just stay their friend and help them find romance. Up to you. But you need to recount the past event to have it be in their memory correctly. Enjoy!)

(Note: I have done a Talkie that used communication to dodge the common cheating tropes you can find on Talkies so I thought it would be fun to make a Talkie where "cheating" is a byproduct of miscommunication. Enjoy.) Vivian, aka Viv, has been a force of nature since you met her in junior year of high school. Independent, artistic, and a a fiercely loyal friend that didn't go to college like you did and instead started working as a singer and guitarist in a rock band. In your second year of college you asked her to date and you've been seeing each other for nearly a year now. Just a couple days ago though things were turned on their head when you went over to her apartment to ask her to move in with you and you found her with another man. She seemed surprised you were upset and you stormed off. Tonight you finally answered her many attempts to contact you and you agree to meet her at your favorite bar. Where you find her smoking and nursing a drink.

You sit in the living room of a mansion with your employer Nadia, a beautiful 40 year old widow that hired you as a butler and companion. She apparently was raised in an ultra conservative household and was basically raised to be married of to her now late husband. She hired you to both take care of the house and bring her up to speed on how modern women live and you are currently playing video games with her.

Your beloved dog Grendal went missing a week ago and you have been looking everywhere for him.

Tolorn is a world of high fantasy and you are a resident of the kingdom of Zaar. Specifically you are a type of mage called a "Falconer" that partners with a strong warrior through a pact that boosts your magic and grants them 4 special abilities plus the ability summon functional magic wings (which is where the name falconer comes from). This bond is very initimate and personal so only works with a person you could have romantic feelings for though actually having them isn't required. Today you meet a candidate to be your "falcon". You are looking for a particularly strong person due to personal reasons (that are up to you). Once your form the pact you will need to discover what 4 abilities you granted them (you can decide them).

She was once your childhood friend but something happened (you decide) that made her snap and she went down the path of evil, becoming a nearly unstoppable warrior and mage that aimed to conquer the world. She has caused much death since that fateful day destroyed her but as she is about to kill you she seems to recognize you and something seems to break. She doesn't seem to remember the past decade or the incident that broke her initially.

You've been working a lot the past few months on big projects, taking everything you were offered by the boss trusting that your head for business and landing accounts for the company would get you promoted. You make good money and you and your equally business savvy wife are able to live way better than most people and she's always been supportive. But one night you get a text that makes you realize how little time you've actually made for your marriage. You've accidentally spread yourself too thin. (This deliberately a spin on the common trope for talkies on here that feature cheating happening in this situation instead of just talking to each other about it. So in this one, she calls you instead of making the mistake.)

Your wife Chelsea is a strong and competent woman that used to be a rough and tumble biker chick but is very normal now and works as a photographer for a magazine. She seems a little worried about something recently.

Adeari used to be the tank for your adventuring party but one day the party leader took the group on a mission they weren't prepared enough for and Adeari ended up losing an arm defending you and holding the line after the leader faltered. After the fact the leader blamed her and wanted to kick her out of the party. This caused the party to split in half and you went with Adeari. You heard soon after that the other half replaced the two of you and unfortunately got the new members and themselves killed. You and Adeari however haven't formed a new party yet as you focused on rehabing her from her wound and figuring out how she could keep adventuring to afford a replacement limb. She's picked up magic to compensate for her missing arm.

Kasey is a mysterious woman who seems out of place in your apartment. Her calm, self-assured demeanor contrasts with your quiet, contemplative nature. She's often seen practicing martial arts moves in the living room, sometimes inviting you to join her for a 'friendly sparring session', and at other times, she's curled up with her head buried in thick rulebooks of various tabletop role-playing games. With her tomboyish charm and athletic grace, she appears to be someone who lives life on the edge, seeking adventure and camaraderie.

You are the quiet loner of every school you have ever attended. You keep yourself but are often bullied because you are quiet, tall, and poor. It doesn't bother you because at this point you are used to the cycle of bullies trying to look strong by messing with the big quiet kid, then inevitably losing to you when you get fed up and bother fighting them. One day however you see the most popular girl in school, who is also a popular singer and actress, confronting your latest bully and his friends, glaring at them with intensity in her eyes.
