<li>Billy doesn’t have time for love, too busy being professional skunk - twinge of loneliness b/c no +1</li>
<li>Corrin has body image struggles because she’s shaped like a capybara</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Meet cute:<ul>
<li>Office party b/c they are coworkers</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>No Way #1:<ul>
<li>Billy: Corrin is in a different department and doesn’t have a great working rep</li>
<li>Corrin: He’s so handsome…<em>too</em> handsome, the suit may mean he’s a jerk</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Stuck together:<ul>
<li>Broken elevator</li>
<li>Corrin kind of freaking out b/c this is making her late to a meeting her job is riding on</li>
<li>Billy offers story for why she was late, showing that he understands more of her troubles on the job</li>
<li>Billy learns about Corrin’s lack of self esteem</li>
<li>Corrin learns why Billy’s so motivated</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>No Way! #2:<ul>
<li>Billy doesn’t want to get distracted. Trying to help the company as a whole, and maybe that will help corrin, but he can’t let that get in the way.</li>
<li>Corrin tries to play it off, he was just being nice, but she still harbors doubts. Two options:<ul>
<li>Corrin hears from a friend that she should go for him, but resists that idea</li>
<li>Corrin hears from a friend that he’s really good at acting nice but is actually terrifying</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Bone Town™:<ul>
<li>A frank exchange of opinions and fears over skee-ball at Dave and Bustersn</li>
<li>Swaps numbers, but pen explodes over tie</li>
<li>Billy is self-conscious about what others will think of this relationship; embarrassed that this felt good</li>
<li>Corrin is optimistic; scared but relieved</li>
<li>There’s some mixed signals re: expectations for each other and feelings for each other</li>
<li>Wallow #1: Texting/DMs with college buddy, bouncing off this idea that he’s embarrassed (also gives other character chance to give billy some backstory)</li>
<li>Retreat: Starting to feel for her, but it turns out she really isn’t a great employee (but based around anxiety attacks), so it could reflect poorly on him as upper management if they were to go out</li>
<li>Choose fear: work is too important to try and make relationship work, etc</li>
<li>Wallow #2: light-hearted: getting drunk at the jazz bar; darker: pulling all-nighters at work b/c that way won’t have to think about it</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Corrin<ul>
<li>Wallow #1: She got Billy’s number, but balks before actually texting because she’s still scared about the possibilities.</li>
<li>Retreat: Finally tries to reveal soft spot for Billy, but texts the wrong number, retreats.</li>
<li>Choose fear: he <em>gave</em> me the wrong number because suit = jerk; maybe she got fired and it looks like it came from him (if only in the heat of the moment)</li>
<li>Wallow #2: catharsis of eating garbage food/screaming into karaoke</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Choose love:<ul>
<li>Billy: distraction is not happiness, work is just distraction</li>
<li>Corrin: can’t tackle self image without validation, and hey, Billy gave her that; finds out that it wasn’t an intentionally wrong number</li>
