Oh, wow, I didn't expect a sudden turn out.

I was busy at a friend's grad party. Just got back from the humdrum of college life to a giant pile of invites. I thought I'd gotten this out of the way last year. :( And then I treated myself to Captain America and it was fantastic.

ANYWAYS. There is definitely room open! I'll start working on the rules section and get a small character sheet to keep you guys busy while I try and find a few more people who are interested. At the moment, I'm looking for around 6 people (7 if you include me), maybe more depending, before kick starting this in the rear. I don't want to wait around too long because I want to keep this idea fresh in my mind (and yours!), get it worked out.

What are your thoughts on episodes? Because this doesn't necessarily work with a general plot and I think it would work a lot better if we got to explore the world/universe through episodic (mis)adventures. If that's not necessarily catchy, then I'll go with something that's overarching, but interesting and functional. I do intend to tie it together, so it's not all over the place, even if that may work with this. It's ironic that this would need a somewhat linear plot, but I like ironic. If we go episodic, then don't hesitate to throw out ideas. I'd love to see what you guy have in mind for the story we take on. Restaurant at the End of the Universe or maybe a symbiotic, eldritch horror that mates with universes? This universe borderlines on terribly whimsical and nonsensical to straightforward ultra-modern to MC Escher. Maybe not MC Escher, but it's fantastical and sooper serious at the same time. If that makes any sense. I want to keep it realistic enough that it doesn't turn into an acid trip. That is our line. If it gets trippy, backstep it a lot... a a lot, a lot.

And I haven't watched Firefly, minus the movie Serenity, but I really need to. I need to get more into Whedon-verse stuff 'cause he has an amazing mind and talent for writing and directing. D: But, it's practically any movie or tv show that centers on a ship's crew! The more odd and tenuous the crew is, the better. :D Just so that I don't shoot down anyone saying, "Oh hey, it's like [insert Show/Movie/Book]!" because my subconscious probably has seen it and probably has implemented some of it into my idea for this RP, so by saying no... I'd be lying. XD

Gonna start rereading Hitchhiker's Guide though, flex my brain's improbability muscles.

Off to write and research!
