The Tantamount challenge is now closed.

Our next challenge is: There Was Only One Bed

Things might be feeling a bit dire right now, so I wanted to do this challenge because when I see posts referring to ‘omg, there was only one bed’ on Tumblr it always makes me smile. This trope can be used for romantic or gen fic. Make it serious or have fun with it. I hope that whatever you come up with makes you smile.


Two characters have to share a room for the night. Every room is occupied, but fortunately there is one last room available. There's just one problem — there's only one bed, and the characters aren't comfortable sharing it. ~TVTropes


Gen bed sharing gets two characters into bed for reasons other than sex. While not always, the trope is usually employed as an off-shoot of hurt/comfort, with the emotional and physical comfort offered after bad dreams, emotional meltdowns, and physical injury. Both characters are portrayed as finding relief with this close contact. ~Fanlore
