Here's my #UnhingedPit #NA #F #R #W – that I've nicknamed the 'Plantomasy' Project – in vibes & pictures only! Boy meets girl: plants get in the way, with knitting, tango-dancing, annoying little sisters, troublesome relations & a pet house plant.

TOP ROW: "These guys": A picture of Anthony and Kate from Bridgerton.
"But dancing like this": A picture of a couple from Strictly Come Dancing in a sizzling tango pose.
MIDDLE ROW: "Like in Jumanjii when the plants become a problem": A picture of a huge tropical flower bursting into a living room from the film.
"But more like Stranger Things": a picture of the creeping vines in the house in Season 4.
BOTTOM ROW: "On the trail of a killer": a picture of Knives Out 3, with Daniel Craig and the cast staring down into a grave.
"But with geeks": Steve and Nancy from Stranger Things Season 4, dressed up to hunt Vecna, like they mean business.

There is an illustrated shopping list on a wooden surface, weighed down by flowers and two golden paperweights that are decorated with a phoenix and a dragon. The list reads: MAX'S POST-REINCARNATION SHOPPING LIST. MIRROR: remember, you're young again now, and chill out! GLASS BOTTLE: because teens deserve a drink (of milk) too. SCENT POUCH: for that fruity touch. damn you puberty 2.0!!! MORE PAPER: when you ramble & can't spell but ink is unforgiviniing... PRESSED FLOWER BOOKMARK:

I’ve been wondering… am I pitching my heartfelt, high-heat, Berlin retro-destination romance™️ all wrong? Unhinged friends, what if I rebranded it as a romcom? 👇 Thoughts? #UnhingedPit #Q #A #R
Athlete • single dad • lost soul • hunk
Type A • brainy • good girl abroad
Forced proximity
Age gap
He falls first
“It’s just a fling”
Cheeky banter
Hot🌶️

Title in mock visual:
Only 1 Summer in Berlin

A summer student. A housing mix-up. A gruff German host.
And an unexpected love story that will turn summer into forever.

When they make up after a row… 💔🔥
“And where does that leave us…”
“In a bloody big mess,” I say bitterly
I lift my head to kiss him, but he pulls me to his chest.
“Let me just hold you.”
“Let’s do more.”
“F*ck it, [redacted], I didn’t apologize so I could get some.”

Certified stamp: 100% TRUE. 100% MISLEADING.

But when she finally works up the courage to confess to the perfect guy, he’s too oblivious to look beyond their friendship. Desperate to turn his head, Maggie hatches a plan: snag a fake date to his hockey team’s skate party and make him jealous, as long as she can survive her clumsy self on the ice.
Enter Nathan Myers—the team grump. Once he agrees to be her stand-in, everything seems simple enough: he’ll teach her how to skate, and she’ll put up with his attitude. Only the more time they spend together, the more Maggie discovers a gentle teddy bear hidden beneath Nathan’s gruff exterior. For the first time, she wonders if it’s okay to let go of certain expectations—being herself might actually be enough.
But Nathan’s a wild card with no college plans. He doesn’t fit in the future Maggie’s mom has mapped out for her. Trapped between the family expectations and her growing feelings, she must decide whether breaking the rules is worth it with the boy who’s becoming more than just a fake date.#tropes and elements
