Muse A is a guarded private investigator, who's been hardened by years of working cases that no one else wanted. Muse A is at the end of their professional rope, exhausted by a decade of pounding the pavement to get the bad guys, while constantly looking over their shoulder. Through it all, Muse B has been their loyal companion—the one they always turn to when the dam is about to break—the only one that can keep Muse A from resorting to their worst vices. Muse A's latest assignment—a missing person's case, involving the sibling of a childhood friend—has Muse A clutching Muse B tighter than ever. Muse B is there for all the late nights, easily soothing Muse A's frayed nerves, seducing Muse B away from the case with their slim figure and intoxicating scent. Muse B is the only reliable thing inMuse A's dismal world and as such, Muse B's growing pull on Muse A becomes harder and harder to deny.
Muse B is Muse A's trusty carton of cigarettes.
Fools!
Optional: Legitimize this plot by turning Muse B into a person involved in the crime who's deliberately distracting Muse A from solving it. Or keep it as is/insert your own vice, and use this plot for a self para/character study.
