Let's just get down to the meat of it shall we?
-I'm 21+ and I'd like you to be as well.
-M// originals only
-Third person, multi-para. I am pretty lax with post length. I don't care about matching post length, I like writing however much/little I feel is necessary for a good post and I encourage you to do the same. I can be verbose. I love details and description of mental processes, but I really don't like posts over 1k words unless it's the intro or something important is going down. Not a fan of fluffing the post with superfluous junk but also not cool with one-liners. Quality > quantity. On my end, I usually average between 400-900 words, but that's just to give you a general idea. If you want to write more/less go ahead, so long as I have something to work with.
-I have very few limits and ask for similar in my partners.
-I like romance and would enjoy it in our writing! I can do fluffy romance or dark co-dependent obsessions and everything in between. Pick your poison. I like a nice long build up with plenty of story to keep it all going, aka- no instant romance.
-I can reply anywhere from once a day to once a week depending on how busy I am, rarely go longer than that unless something is wrong. I will tell you if something is going on. Keep in mind, I work 12 hour shifts and that I'm in school full time.
-I strongly prefer gdocs over all else.
-I use skype, discord, and hangouts for ooc plotting. I really would like to chat ooc. I like to plot and talk about the boys, send pictures and music back and forth. All of that good stuff.
-I really like to use FC/PBs! If you don't, that's fine. I always use images of real people for mine.
-Please don't press me for replies. Note: This is different than checking in on me if I have suddenly mysteriously vanished. That's cool, feel free to poke me.
-If the rp just isn't working, just tell me. I'm totally cool with dropping or starting something new even.
I also have a site set up, it has the same sort of information but the fun bit is that it has samples! See them here!
Plot bunnies
I don't really have any solid plots, but here are some snippets to get the juices flowing. Feel free to hit me with an idea if you have one. I like most every single theme and setting except slice-of-life.
•Old rivalries
•Misunderstandings which have snowballed over the years
•Complicated hierarchies and forbidden romances
•Medieval- After a long, brutal war, a close relative of the fallen king is sent to the victor's kingdom as a ward of sorts. The lord forced to take him in is made to do so due to a dangerous back and forth between he and the king. Good ol' blackmail is what keeps the king from lashing out openly, and there are murder plots on both sides. The hope is that the ward will provide enough distraction for the king to make his move, if not take care of the issue for him entirely. The lord and the ward could be from families/houses/names who have a history of bad blood between them. After the (likely rough) introductory period, they actually team up against the king. They could even successfully kill him off and the ward could be the heir for the fallen kingdom. Maybe there's another uprising after that. Lots of potential.
•Futuristic- Corporations created super-soldiers and sold them to the highest bidder. They're completely indistinguishable from humans save for the bar codes tattooed on the back of their necks. The corporations never meant to give them a sense of self, but once they were taken under government control and refined they began to gain sentience at one point or another. For a decade or two, the soldiers operated as planned, but eventually there was an uprising. Now humans live in cities within secure domes, at almost constant war with the machines and under strict government lock down. The super-soldiers send runners to steal information out of these cities, one such runner gets injured and kidnaps a scientist in his desperation as the machines lack the knowledge to fix severe injuries to themselves. The repair requires a part from a distant city which means a long, and dangerous, trek out through the wastes together. The soldier would have to keep them both safe from both human and machine patrols, as both sides would want one of them dead, if not both for cooperation with the opposing force.
•A bully/bullied dynamic in a military situation- be it medieval fantasy in a king's army/guard or a futuristic space setting where they are forced to be partners.
•Space mercenaries. Longstanding rivals go down with their ships and are temporarily trapped on a planet together. They have to band together to survive- environment, aggressive creatures, etc. Maybe old friendship turned sour. Misunderstandings and tensions ensue.
•World wide acute memory loss due to hacked nanobots. Perhaps a virus orchestrated by a select few, aka the elite 1%. Or, a rebellious group of individuals looking to change the world. Maybe some retain their memories. The end of the world as we know it.
•Assassins on two different sides of a war (Corporate dogs? Battle between companies? Space assassins? All of the above?)
•High powered executives with fingers dipped in criminal undertakings that have a 'reputation' to upkeep.
•Mobs run by the corrupt with complicated hierarchies and overly ambitious underlings.
•Emotionally stunted characters unwillingly tethered together.
•Modern, historical, future... literally just about anything.
