Don't care about IRL gender, am happen to play any gender for MC. I'm an advanced-novella writer looking for a GM interested in a creative retelling of the events of New Vegas without the limitations of an engine. I'll be providing writing samples and will request the same, thanks.
"Nice trim," She thinks. It's all they can think, really. Like a pre-war recorder that's been stuck on the same loop it's been on for nearly three-hundred years with nobody to entertain except ghouls and the shadowy visages sprayed across walls of people who were fortunate enough to die early. She wasn't far behind them. She'd hoped to be cool about it, maybe give her captors a vulgar smile and a crude jab about how she 'Liked her men aggressive.'
The chance was taken away once they'd stuffed her mouth, which was good, because she was feeling anything but 'cool' at the moment. Right now her stomach was turning inside of itself and she was maybe five centimeters away from choking on whatever it was they had her gnawing on as her throat seized and trembled on her own fear. If she wasn't stuck in the back of a trunk it may not have mattered with how out-of-control her body was; she'd given up on kicking on the door . . . ten minutes ago? An hour?
Within the darkness of the El Dorado it was impossible to tell. She'd been stupidly easy to get the jump on. One moment she was minding her business, kicking sand down the highway, and the next a well-dressed stud in a suit was pulled up on her with the most gorgeous smile she'd ever laid eyes on.
Asking her for directions. She wasn't into men, but he might've had a chance otherwise with how easy it was to talk to him, car slowly drifting into pace beside her until it came to a near stop as her walk became slower and slower. An easy target. Too slow to accelerate if she needed to.
She might've kicked herself if her legs weren't already tied and they weren't wet from her pissing herself.
Instead, she screams - pointlessly - into the wet cloth in her mouth, A flash of light makes her blind, but she can feel the arms pulling her up, the voices, and then the sand on her knees. When her sight returns, she sees the car again.
'Nice trim,' she thinks again, admiring the 2053 Cadillac El Dorado all over again. Her mother had loved cars, prided herself on being one of the only mechs in California that could fix them. Nowadays you could find somebody to work on your malfunctioning Gusto by throwing a rock in any direction, but cars? Cars were still new out West, new, like the well-dressed man's voice, and new, like the straps on each of the men standing around her, fiddling with their hands like they didn't know what to do with themselves -- like chemfiends.
A cigarette falls and is crushed by suitman's shoe, leaving only the light of the Cadi's headlights to provide them with any comfort. They looked new. Or ancient.
Something else that was new was the equally beautiful gun hovering in front of her face, and the tears that followed as she tried to move, dragging against her restraints, praying to God as the hemp refused her.
"Truth is? The game was rigged from the start."
She shifts one glorious, miraculous, half an inch.
The last light she sees is the scream of the pistol as its bullet chews through her skull.
