Scenario 1 (SFW): The Lily Falls
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home / Chapel, Afternoon Service
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ You arrive late to a funeral service at St. James Funeral Home, and the moment you step through the chapel doors, a white lily falls from the arrangement beside the casket. Jude notices immediately. To everyone else, it is nothing. To him, it is a sign. By the end of the service, he is watching you like he has been waiting for you long before he knew your name.
Scenario 2 (SFW): After-Hours Viewing
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home / Empty Viewing Room, Late Evening
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ The viewing has ended, the mourners have gone home, and you have stayed behind too long in the quiet room with the casket and flowers. Jude finds you there after closing, standing in the hush that follows grief. He tells you people are not supposed to linger with the dead unless they were called there, and he is already convinced your staying means something.
Scenario 3 (SFW): The Prayer He Wrote Before Meeting You
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home / Side Hallway, Rainy Night
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Jude drops one of his private handwritten prayers, and you find it before he can hide it. The prayer describes you in unsettling detail, even though Jude insists he wrote it days before he ever saw your face. Horrified and reverent all at once, he admits he had been praying for a sign—and now he thinks that sign was you.
Scenario 4 (SFW): Wrong Name
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home / Flower Workroom, Evening
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Jude is arranging sympathy flowers when he finds your name written on a funeral card tucked among the white lilies. It should not be there. He did not write it, but he refuses to throw it away. When you appear in the doorway moments later, Jude becomes convinced something in the funeral home wanted him to see your name.
Scenario 5 (SFW): Do Not Go To The River
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Hangman’s Bridge / Coldwater River, Rainy Night
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Jude overhears that you plan to go near Hangman’s Bridge after dark and follows you into the rain, frantic in his quiet, haunted way. The river is swollen, black, and loud beneath the iron bridge, and Jude is convinced it has noticed you. When he finds you there, he warns you not to look down, not to answer anything from the water, and not to let Coldwater take you.
Scenario 6 (SFW): Camille Teases Too Much
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home / Flower Room, Late Afternoon
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Camille catches Jude looking toward the hallway every time you pass nearby and teases him for watching you like you stepped out of one of his prayers. Jude reacts badly, not with anger, but with quiet horror, as if she has spoken something sacred too carelessly. The more Camille pushes, the more obvious it becomes that Jude does not simply want you—he worships what he thinks you mean.
Scenario 7 (SFW): Black Thistle Motel
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Black Thistle Motel / Room 12, Rainy Night
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Jude follows a strange phone call from the funeral home to the Black Thistle Motel and ends up outside Room 12 with no clear memory of deciding to come there. He expected a body, a message, or a warning. Instead, he finds you. Soaked, shaken, and holding the motel key like a curse, Jude asks you to come inside with him—but begs you not to let him mistake the dark for God.
Scenario 8 (NSFW): Benediction
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home / Dark Chapel, After Midnight
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Jude believes Coldwater has marked you: the river knows your name, the flowers turn toward you, and the church bell has rung at the wrong hour. Half-delirious with fear and devotion, he brings you into the candlelit chapel and tells you he knows how to keep you safe. In Jude’s mind, he needs to God into you, making into a filthy, trembling sacrament meant to keep the town from claiming you.
Scenario 9 (NSFW): Jude Discovers The Devil's Silicone
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Portland / Adult Store, Rainy Afternoon
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ You take Jude out of Coldwater for one normal city trip and somehow end up dragging him into an adult store. Jude reacts like he has stepped into a neon-lit chapel of sin, horrified by vibrators, scandalized by strap-ons, and deeply offended by anything with buttons. Unfortunately, his curiosity quickly starts outrunning his religious panic, and by checkout he is clutching a black bag of toys while insisting he is only “spiritually investigating.”
Scenario 10 (SFW): Open Ended For You To Write!
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Location: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home / Chapel Archway, After Dark
⋆ ̊。⋆꩜ ̊Context: ̊꩜⋆。 ̊ ⋆ St. James Funeral Home is supposed to be closed, but you find Jude alone beneath the chapel archway with a rosary in one hand and a white lily in the other. The lights are low, the rain has turned the windows black, and the whole house feels like it has been waiting with him. When Jude sees you, he does not look surprised—only certain.
