so, this won't be nicely formatted and I know I just started but I'm going to try to keep from making it convoluted and rambly. the old me is no more, the new me is concise and unintimidatingly informal aaannnd would you look at that I've already failed
anyway, some little facts about me that might be useful (or not maybe I just want to introduce myself who knows)
● call me ree or reese or whatever else strikes your fancy! ● I'm 16, swedish-born, british-raised and now living in sweden again ● I consider myself advanced (not that you'd be able to tell by my inconsistent casual speech) and can churn out 10 paragraph responses with some regularity ○ quality>quantity! I don't mind short posts and am equally comfortable with one paragraph responses ○ it also goes without saying that longer replies take longer to get to you. you're not going to get 10 paragraphs daily, it'll be more like 1-2 times a week at that point ● I'm also pretty active, especially now with summer coming up ○ as mentioned I'm in sweden. bear in mind that my timezone is cest (central european summer time), gmt+2 or 6 hours ahead of forum time ● lgbtq+ friendly! in fact, I often prefer writing lgbtq characters ○ mxf relationships are fine as well, of course, but I find fxf and mxm and nbxa are much easier for me a lot of the time and what am I looking for from you?
● above all, someone friendly! please be willing to chat with me between rp posts or even as we're writing them. it makes the whole thing so much more enjoyable ● again, quality>quantity but don't give me one-liners. at least a paragraph of five-ish sentences would be nice, and more is always welcome! ● activity - not a huge deal. just be upfront about what it'll be like. if you're only going to be on once a week, at least let me know so I don't have to worry about it. ● carry this thing with me! discuss the plot, throw in some side characters, write headcanons with me, just talk to me about the characters and the story. I will honestly love you forever.

if none of these strike your fancy but you'd still like to rp, let me know! I'm sure we can work something else out.monster under the bed
> platonic/familial relationship; urban fantasy < Muse A is a demon, and they've spent their long lifetime going from contract to contract, exchanging souls for talent or wisdom. But their current one is a little bit different. When Muse B was born, their mother made an agreement with Muse A. As legal guardian of her child, she was able to enter into binding contracts on their behalf, and this was no different. So, in exchange for Muse B's protection for the rest of their life, she sold her child's soul. Muse A and Muse B grew up together, Muse B constantly being watched over by Muse A. It isn't until now, many years down the road, that Muse B starts to see that something's up and that maybe Muse A isn't all they say they are. Muse A, meanwhile, is torn. Taking souls has always been easy before, but it turns out that taking the soul of someone you watched grow up, instead of someone you met exactly once, is going to be a little more difficult than expected.
bleeding out
> platonic/romantic relationship; warfare < Mercia and Hollender are at war. It's been going on for years now, and despite the two kingdoms in the middle of it rapidly running out of resources, tensions are impossibly high and the fight still going steady. Muse A, a soldier with the Mercian army, is out on the battlefield one day when they receive what should have been a fatal wound to the abdomen. If it hadn't been for Muse B, a soldier on Hollender's side, bringing Muse A back to their camp they would have passed quickly. They never tell anyone of the identification they found on the wounded soldier, not even the soldier themselves.Nobody at the Hollender camp seems to know who they are, so Muse A try their best to blend in and hide their heritage. They need to make it out of here alive, after all. Muse B helps them as they recover, and as the two get to know each other it becomes increasingly difficult for Muse A to hide. And when Mercier stages an attack directly on the camp, Muse A is faced with the most difficult decision they'd every had to make. Do they side with their nation, the people that abandoned them as they were dying, or back up the people that saved their life?
love letters to a stranger
> romantic relationship; epistolary fluff < It all started by coincidence, really. Muse A wasn’t planning on anything to happen; when they left that note in the crack in the wall they were just hoping for someone to pick it up, read it and then throw it away. Writing it down had been enough and nothing else was supposed to come of it, they were just bored is all. Nevertheless, it did start something extraordinary. Muse B later spotted that very same note, and after reading it carefully, left another, this one written like a letter. Muse A finds this one and leaves a reply, and so started the epistolary romance of Muse A and Muse B.[ this would be told in the letters they write. eventually, they might meet up, maybe not, that all depends ]
hades > platonic/romantic relationship; medieval fantasy < Muse A brings death with them wherever they go. They don’t know why, but plants wither at their touch and just the brush of a hand can cause another human being extreme pain. It’s power, sure, but it’s uncontrollable. Despite that, they work at the castle, as a physician of all things. Maybe death has a way of keeping them close, or maybe they’re working to prevent it while they still can. What they don't know is this: once every generation death himself fathers a child destined to walk to earth for him, guiding lost souls and returning the kingdom of death to its former glory. For some reason, Muse A was never told of this, so they're left unable to control their power and ignorant of their parentage. Muse B is a noble from a neighbouring Kingdom, at the castle to visit. However, they have a secret of their own. They’re undead, and they’re here for help. Many years ago, they died in an accident. They went to see death on his throne, asking to return to earth. They weren't done, they said. Their wish was granted, but it came with a price. Now, they can sense that it's about to be paid so they’re here to ask Muse A for another extension before they are forced to return. The only problem is, Muse A doesn’t seem to know anything about what they can do, or how to achieve what Muse B is asking for. With their time quickly running out, Muse B needs to figure out a way to jog Muse A’s memory and kickstart their abilities once more, returning them to their place as ambassador to the Underworld. Fail and they will spend eternity wishing they’d accepted death the first time around.muse a: name (𝘨𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘶𝘯 ) muse b: name (@shootforthestars )

this seems cool! all of your plots are wonderful but don't strike me as something i could rp well.
do you have any preferred genres of rp or what you want to do? i lean towards fantasy- not full out fantasy but something in that range- sometimes scifi, but no matter what i'm really not looking for anything fandom based. inspired by some are cool, though.
currently i'm slightly inspired by ender's game and other things, but i can't pinpoint something i'm dying to rp atm, sorry i'm not much help ><

ascendant no I get it, they're all pretty specific plots. if you want to figure something else out, I'm all for that, of course!
I honestly don't really. I'm fine with most things. I've been craving some sci-fi lately, and I'm always really eager to do mythology or fairytale retellings/reimaginings because those are heaps of fun, but anything goes really.
as you can see, I'm not really much help either.

oh, gosh, we're both helpless.
we could do something akin to harry potter but mixing in some things? the demon deal plot is interesting, and other supernatural creatures could be cool. something could also be similar to a guardians of the galaxy thing- many planets, and we could deal with something in a made up planet.

ooh, remixing harry potter could be fun! but then I love space so much, too.
god I need to pull myself together
maybe we could start with the hp-inspired thing and see where we get with that?

Heya! I'd love to do monster under the bed with you!
But what sorta relationship between the monster/kid are you thinking of? Cause there's lots of ways it could go!
Like some sorta aunt/uncle, or parental figure, or even a friend.
And at what point in the kid's life would you wanna start? We could skip around, start when they're a toddler and rp a few situations there, go forward a couple years, really get that character and relationship development going!

dou I am so glad you had a request, I'm so indecicive I'd never have settled on something cx mxm sounds good, and I'll take muse b no problem. would you like to rp here, on a seperate thread or via pm?

Sherk ahh, I'm glad! I've been looking forward to doing that one. honestly, any direction works just fine with me! friends was what I had in mind at first since that would make it easiest for muse a to realise that everything is not as it seems and for muse b to offer their protection, but I realised I was writing that having them as an older relative or even family friend could be a lot of fun, too. if you don't have a preference, I'd say friend, but anything works really.
and yeah, skipping around is always a lot of fun! we can build a more realistic relationship dynamic that way, too.

sure! i can go a bit further with ideas for both just so you have a pick of what you'd really want
oooooh, tell me whatchu want, what u really really want
hp;; -no matter what the species, most magical creatures have their own mages that can assume human form. to learn magic, they hide among normal humans due to their brilliant schools. a creature mage and a wizard- or two creature mages- meet near the end (or at the very beginning) of their schooling. we can go from there. -hogwarts is controlled by voldemort. the war against him failed from the start, because harry was killed instead of living. two teachers, placed in the school after voldemort eradicated the light, are sick and tired of the rule. they work together to resist him, keep the students safe, and do anything they can to make it bearable, since they can't go work somewhere else. [ they are also masters in their fields. ]
space stuff;; - two thieves trying to steal the same thing, both getting caught, and bonding by escaping authorities and going on more thieving sprees because their abilities work well together - a new planet is discovered with two intelligent species in a savage war. peace is forced on them from interstellar authority, and some are gathered up to have info gathered on their planet and learn about the galaxy. they are Not happy about it. - earth finally finds out about the many other planets and star systems that hold life, idk what would happen

Awesome, I have no real preference, so friends is good.
Also, mind if I take Muse B, the kid? I have next to no experience playing demons/any supernatural beings.

ascendant god you're not making this easy for me, are you? how am I supposed to pick??
okay, so I really like the twisted retelling of hp you have, that sounds so interesting to explore. but space thieves are a massive weakness of mine I can never turn that kind of plot down. aaahhhh do you have one you like over the other of those two?

Sherk not at all, I was hoping for muse a! I'll ask you the same thing I asked lemon, would you like to rp here, in a seperate thread or via pm?

Post by ascendant on May 28, 2017 16:58:32 GMT -5
i feel like i have more knowhow on the the retelling of hp, so we could do that. we can also add in the creature mages, which would be cool- voldemort could have won the creatures over to his side, and they offered their mages once the war was over

Sherk okidoke, a new thread it is. I'll make us one right away edit: here's a link I tagged you as well, just in case
ascendant alright then, the hp one it is. and that's an excellent point, we could go wild with all sorts of magical things with it, including the creature mages, which, by the way, is a lovely idea ^^

hoo boy, decisions i think i'll go with muse a~ & i'm totally down for either mxm or fxf if you're feeling either one more than the other? c:

Post by ascendant on May 28, 2017 17:11:42 GMT -5
the book the griffin mage inspired the creature mages, tbh. it's such a good book, you should read it
do you want another thread? at this rate you'll abandon the plot shop thread when you get a lot of rpers and just have a million threads to use, haha
and as for main characters, i'll have mine be he/they ^^

|

Post by 𝘨𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘶𝘯 on May 28, 2017 17:16:32 GMT -5
ascendant oh I've heard of that. I'll have to look and see if I can find it at my library!
that's probably true tbh c': if you'd like another thread I can start one, but I also don't mind sticking around here since it looks like it'll be pretty calm
I think I'll use a female character for this, just because I have like 0 male/nb characters in the hp universe and I can't be bothered to change that.
вlue вlood decisions, decisions... I think fxf could be a nice change, especially given the theme, but I'm fine either way!

i like other threads since they're without much traffic from other people, especially on the first page. i can make one if you want.
alright! still deciding on they/them or he/they, but i'll decide in a bit. i'm pretty sure i want to make them a creature mage- not sure what species, however uwu

ascendant if you could I'd be grateful ^^
вlue вlood fxf it is! c: do you have a preference for time period? I did my best to leave that vauge because there's a huge difference between a futuristic setting and a medieval or even modern one so I wanted to leave that as open as I could
