5. Stuck on a desert island
6. In the afterlife
7. Aliens Made Them Do It (not necessarily literal aliens)
8. True love
9. Love/hate relationship
10. Adultery
11. Pregnancy (use male pregnancy if needed)
12. Pink frills and white lace
13. French maid costume
14. Police/military uniform
15. High heels and black leather
16. American high school setting
17. Someone is a vampire
18. Everyone is a furry version of themselves
19. Something not PG enough to mention on this board
20. Roll again twice

For example, my first attempt resulted in pairing Windstriker/the really dangerous trap using drunkenness as a plot device. The things a paladin horse can do while really drunk...
I think Arranged Marriage would be another plot device.
