The Wi-Fi password: roommate chat template
A ready Discord-look chat for the roommate chronicles gallery, eight messages and about 24 seconds as a video. Open it, change the words and export it as a labelled, fictional mock-up.
Preview in the Discord look
What is the Wi-Fi password?
It is on the router.
The sticker is gone.
The cat ate the sticker.
Then how do I connect?
Ask the cat.
The cat is asleep.
Then we are offline until Thursday.
The full script (8 messages)
The first four messages open on the Free plan; the rest need a paid plan.
The template: The Wi-Fi password
Quin starts this one with "What is the Wi-Fi password?". After eight messages Rae has the last word, "Then we are offline until Thursday.", which gives about 24 seconds on screen.
Look at message 8, "Then we are offline until Thursday.", which runs 6 words, then at message 6, "Ask the cat.". Two of the lines are questions and each pulls a reply out of the other side.
Using it in the Discord look
Pick one object everything revolves around: a plant, a mug, a sofa, a thermostat. Switch on typing dots, reactions and an online status when you build the scene; read marks are not offered for Discord. Discord is one of the looks open to everyone on the Free plan. Let one flatmate answer in one word every time. It becomes a signature. Reactions appear as small chips under a message with a count, a good way to show a crowd agreeing without writing the crowd.
What the Free plan shows
The Free plan opens the first four messages and two people, so The Wi-Fi password would stop at "The cat ate the sticker.". The other four, through "Then we are offline until Thursday.", need a paid plan with a higher message limit and up to four people.
Tips
- Hold message 5, "Then how do I connect?", a beat longer than the rest.
- Start on "What is the Wi-Fi password?" and let viewers read it twice before Rae replies.
- A series works well: "Flatmate chronicles, episode 4".
- Change one word of Rae's closing "Then we are offline until Thursday." so the ending is yours, then caption the video as a fictional chat.
- Rename Quin and Rae to keep the story original, and keep every character an invented adult.
Questions
Can I use The Wi-Fi password on the Free plan?
Yes for the look, with limits. The Discord look is on the Free plan, and the editor loads the first four of the eight messages and two people. The rest needs a paid plan. Exports on Free carry a visible ChatsRat watermark.
How long is The Wi-Fi password as a video?
About 24 seconds at a comfortable reading pace, counting eight messages with a short beat between them. Add a second or two for the ending card.
Is this roommate chat chat a real conversation?
No. It is an invented chat between Quin and Rae, made as a mock-up. ChatsRat is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any messaging app, and look names describe a style only. Label what you publish as fiction.
Can I change the names and lines?
Yes. Open the template in the editor, replace any line or name and export your own version. Keep the characters invented, and keep the content free of real people and anything sexual.
