Would you rather… for couples

Sunny : A hundred dilemmas! Adventure or blanket, your call. Me? I pick both, obviously.

Each question pits an adventure option against a cosy one. Answer separately, then compare: are you a duo of explorers, homebodies, or the perfect mix? These dilemmas come from Baromo’s “Would you rather?” game.
