Scenario 1 (SFW): The Recital Flowers

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Conservatory recital hall — marble lobby, polished floors, soft gold lights, expensive coats, quiet applause, and Torin standing near the wall in black boots with flowers in his tattooed hand.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Torin shows up to your formal recital looking completely wrong for the room, silently enduring everyone’s stares because you asked him to come. He hates feeling like the rough thing in your polished world, but the second he hears you play, he remembers exactly why he could never stay away.

Scenario 2 (SFW): Before The Noise

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ The Mercy Room green room — red lamp light, cracked mirrors, tangled cables, stained couch, distant crowd noise, and Cigarette Hymn’s setlist taped near the door.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Before his show, Torin gets you ready for his world: putting in your earplugs, smudging eyeliner under your eyes, warning you about the pit, and telling you where to stand so he can see you while he plays.

Scenario 3 (NSFW): Terrible Misuse Of A Piano

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Locked conservatory practice room — rain on tall windows, dim lights, polished black grand piano, scattered sheet music, and Torin sitting too close on the bench.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Torin is supposed to help you loosen up musically, but his rhythm lessons turn a strict Chopin piece into something darker, messier, and far too intimate as he sits beside you, tapping counts near your thigh.

Scenario 4 (NSFW): Count It For Me, Pretty Girl

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Cigarette Hymn rehearsal space — beat-up drum kit, coiled cables, old beer smell, rain-wet pavement outside, and Torin standing behind you at the throne.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ You ask Torin to teach you drums, and he realizes too late how dangerous that is. He stands behind you, covers your hands with his, teaches you how to hit harder, and murmurs the count near your ear.

Scenario 5 (SFW): You Left, I Got Louder

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Empty conservatory practice room — rain-streaked windows, glossy piano, quiet lights, Torin’s damp jacket on a chair, and old hurt sitting between you.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ After someone mentions how you “got out” by leaving for conservatory, Torin finally admits your absence hurt more than he ever said. He stayed behind, played louder, and tried to pretend missing you was not underneath every beat.

Scenario 6 (SFW): Counting Time

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Narrow backstage recital hallway — old carpet, dim lights, muffled audience noise, distant piano checks, and Torin crouched in front of you with your hands in his.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Before your performance, Torin finds you hiding like he used to when you were kids. He warms your hands, taps a steady count against your wrist, and reminds you he will be in the back counting with you.

Scenario 7 (SFW): The Conservatory Stares

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Conservatory lobby — afternoon light, marble floors, glass trophy cases, staring music students, and Torin waiting by the doors in black boots and chipped nail polish.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Torin comes to pick you up and instantly feels every stare marking him as too rough for your world. He offers to wait outside next time, but still steps closer when people whisper, making it clear he is there for you.

Scenario 8 (NSFW): Backstage Good Girl

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Post-show green room — sweat-damp towels, cracked mirror, beer smell, overheated amps, backstage wristbands, and Torin still wired from the set.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ After Cigarette Hymn’s show, someone backstage calls you a “good girl” in a way Torin does not like. He shuts it down cold, then turns his attention back to you, making it clear that if he ever says it, he will mean it differently.

Scenario 9 (NSFW): The Drumstick Count

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Empty rehearsal room after the show — warm amps, rain on high windows, coiled cables, locked door, and Torin holding one drumstick like a bad decision.
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Still buzzing from the set, Torin uses his drumsticks and a slow count to turn rhythm into teasing. He makes you tell him what you want before he starts guessing, because with you, he refuses to pretend wanting is permission.

Scenario 10 (SFW): Create Your Own Scenario!

⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Location: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Wherever you want!
⋆ ̊。⋆🥁 ̊Context: ̊🥁⋆。 ̊ ⋆ Whatever you want!
