And We All Looked Up

In Follansbee, West Virginia, everyone is defined by a label. This is especially true at the local highschool. Every student there is viewed by their peers as a label, a few words that become their entire being. On top are The Jocks, Mean Girls, Queen Bees, and Beauty Queens. Below them are the The Creators and The Theater Kids. On the very bottom of the social chain are The Sluts, The Nerds, The Stoners, and The Misfits. For as long as Follansbee Highschool had been founded the teenagers lived in their labels. But then, everyone was forced to look up.

A blue comet danced overhead, visible at all times during the day. Experts said it would hit Earth in two months, completely destroying humanity. That gave the teenagers at Fallansbee High two months to leave their labels behind, two months to become something bigger. It would be two months to really live.

This will be a roleplay where society crumbles as humans are forced to live without purpose. Crime rates soar; the world is unsafe. Characters will have to face impending death and figure out what to do with the time remaining.
(This roleplay is inspired by We All Looked Up written by Tommy Wallach.)
Please feel free to discuss questions and concerns here : ) Once I have found all of my members, this thread will also be used for plotting.

Is this like a slice of life thread? Mandalay

 

[Mandalay]

Kind of !! It'll begin that way. I think for the first "stage" of the roleplay it'll be similar to a slice of life; the characters will be grasping their upcoming death and interacting with those around them. However, once that gets boring we can plot to throw something different in there. I was thinking like, maybe after all the character come to terms with dying they decide to travel around the US and complete their bucket lists. Or maybe they're forced to deal with the dangerous society where no one listens to the rules anymore? It's a very flexible plot scorpiodragon

 

[scorpiodragon]

Thanks for the like on my charrie and okay, I think I can understand how it will delve further into "disaster and doom" in later stages. I think traveling around the US might be good.

Thanks. I didn't think until after I'd posted that it might be a bit too long but it's good to know that my post is perfect. The first verse of Juliet's writing...I just thought that up for the post as I was writing it. Mandalay

Also, mentioned Phobos in my post.

 

[scorpiodragon]

To accomodate the people that are her friends/have crushes on her, I changed Juliet's sexuality to bicurious. Mandalay
