Spontaneity and Adaptability (Seeking High Casual/Advanced Partner)

I just finished the Broken Earth trilogy, actually! Nice to meet a fellow fan. I'd be interested in plotting with you. :)

@Mistress Dizzy

oh my godd I couldn't put down any of these three books. They were so amazing. I'd love to talk more, I'll PM you.

Spontaneity and Adaptability (Seeking High Casual/Advanced Partner)

@Zayze@Pennyhaha that's great! Let me know if you want play around with a generator together and see what stories we can come up with (either 1x1 or in a group)

Spontaneity and Adaptability (Seeking High Casual/Advanced Partner)

I'm looking for a couple partners to create something with me long-term. I like the slow burn.

We can go anywhere with the plots below or any that you may have in mind. Throw them at me! We could also use plot/characters/setting/etc generators for some of the plots, too. Let's just get out of the box more, you know? Imagine a story where a young boy plays a VR MMO with his disabled grandma to get her active again. Badass.

Spontaneity (original)

[WAYFARER]
Inspired by classic JRPGs and Zelda (mmMm...love that setting...), where a band of adventurers are sent to save the world. I want this to be a little bit different, such that most of the main characters are not your typical rough and tough type (think of merchants, apothecaries, scholars, etc) and "saving the world" will have to look a bit different than solely fighting monsters--intrigue! diplomacy! friendship! I have a basic premise in mind, so just PM me with the title!

[DRUNKEN HEROES]
Fantasy. Could be Medieval or Modern. Our characters get drunk and break into guarded dragon tower. Or a hidden underground dungeon. Or into a secret larger than themselves, and have to rise to the occasion.

[IT'S LIKE WE'RE IN A MOVIE]
Our characters students/coworkers/etc that have really lame-ass powers in a world where very few people have any super capabilities. They don't even realize we have powers because they're so lame. They get involved in a an incident that reveals to them the true nature of their powers and introduces them to a world they've always been privileged to without knowing. lol you're going to have to plot scribble with me on this. (inspired by the book Worm)

[COMPLETELY SPONTANEOUS]
We'll use a random plot generator. We'll use random character generators and generators for setting/plot/etc. We'll make it work. Be ready to stretch your creative muscles! Some of my favorites are bit.ly/1x8z4fO and bit.ly/29HLaYv.

Examples of prompts:

- He's a caffeine-addicted podcast host with a bad attitude; she's an overweight miner with a mysterious past. Together, they must win a radio-show contest while constantly bickering.
- He's a slovenly millionaire with blue eyes; she's a sarcastic gallery owner with a love of fine wine. Together, they must fight the undead in the late 1990s.

Try it out. Let's take one and go!

[AMERICAN ROAD TRIP]
"A photojournalist takes to the backroads of America to document the lives of everyday people, and along the way she picks up an artist (or whoever). The two journey from east to west, engaging with all sorts of characters and circumstances, some of which are more strange than others..."

An old RP that never took off. Both of our characters are on a cross-country road trip, where my character(s) pick up yours in the beginning somewhere on the east coast. It could either be a lighter thing, with mini-plots abound, or both our characters have our own priorities/end goals. I actually envisioned this to have supernatural elements in it (think mythological folklore in different region and states) but it's up to us.

Adaptability (fandom)

[HARRY POTTER AU]
We play a group of friends going through some year(s) at Hogwarts. Can be an epic or something more lighthearted; this is my self-indulgent prompt and I have various premises depending on how serious we want this to be.

[AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER AU]
A group of benders are tasked with training the avatar in a time of great turbulence; can be set at any time.

More random tips about the writer:

- I don't care for character sheets. Development can come on it's own time. Let's just write!
- Secretly an aspiring writer
- A sucker for elements of fantasy, sci-fi, magical realism, history
- Favorite books and authors include: The Dispossessed (Ursula K. Le Guin), The Broken Earth Trilogy (N.K Jemisin)

I love to write non-standard characters, so not just young, good looking, straight people. Let's play around with multiple characters! I'd also prefer longer responses, but am not strict about it. Quality and effort matter more. I may not respond every day (that's the uncertainty bit), but I'll communicate clearly, and expect the same. I'm on my break, so it's prime time to get writing!

Alright, that's it. PM me know if you want to create something together!

Underwater Fire of their Eyes (High Fantasy Sea Adventure)

Really interested!

BoJack Horseman RP

Oh my god I love this show. IT IS A MASTERPIECE. Count me as interested!!

The Enigmatic Mr. Jones

Interested and following! :)

Americana: A Magic Realist Roadtrip

just a note! playing around with the structure of character interactions and dialogue is interesting/a challenge within collaborative fiction. i may try various things throughout this piece, so no strict storytelling or grammer rules here (referring to my use of re-quoting your character in my post), my friend. just wanted to let you know so you feel free to approach it however you'd like as well.

Americana: A Magic Realist Roadtrip

Anis made a beeline to the front counter and slotted herself in the back of the line. She breathed deeply, fiddling with the crisp bills her hands. The smell of eggs and bacon was still thick in the air, and as the waitress walked by, so did the aroma of coffee.

The ring of the cash register brought her attention to person in front of her—she was overwhelmingly short in comparison to the skinny man. She took a small step to his left, and then saw the old woman behind the register. The old woman’s face was warm, the type of warm that is usually reserved for our friends, or those that we’ve shared a secret or two with. She went away, taking her warmth with her, and Anis was almost sad to see her go.

A hand jutted into her line of sight.

The sounds and smells of the diner were all that really registered. She stared at the hand for a moment, disoriented. The double stacked pancakes were really getting to her.

She looked up into green eyes. It was the tall man.

"You're not from around here, are you?" He smiled a little. "I like to think I've got a pretty good handle of the patrons here, and you're not a regular, far as I can tell."

She smiled her mother’s smile and grasped his hand for a few shakes, “no, I’m not. I’m Anis, from Philadelphia.”

"I'm Thomas. Thomas McClellan."

“A sharp eye, but also not too hard to tell, no?” She laughed as they released hands. "I’ve been here for a week, but I'm going westward. But what about you? You’ve lived here for a long time or—?”

Her energy was rekindling; the coffee and pancakes and eggs and greasy things working their magic, and a wave of journalistic energy washed over her. She considered this her superpower: anything which promised a story—which was everything, but some things stuck out like beacons and she trusted her journalistic sense—she wholly attuned herself to.
