Thread: You and Me Against the World - Organizer [dearestdarling x Traveler]

RE Unnamed Project - Organizer dearestdarling x Traveler Some early ideas from PMs, might need to edit these as time goes on! See more Traveler said dearestdarling said Traveler said dearestdarling said Traveler said dearestdarling said Traveler said dearestdarling said Traveler said dearestdarling said Traveler said dearestdarling said Traveler said dearestdarling said So here's what I was sort of thinking. My character has lived in a small town all of her life, but when she was young, her mother killed her best friend's father, after their affair together went south, and then killed herself. Now she lives with her father, a formerly decorated police sheriff, now working at a desk job at the police station and getting drunk whenever he can, to escape the past. The only person who shows her any attention is a guy she goes to school with, who's only using her as an easy lay, since his perfectly preppy girlfriend won't put out. She knows it but she goes along with it anyway, thinking that's all she's probably good for. She's known as white trash, the daughter of a psycho and a drunk. Your character moves to her school. He's older, and there's some vicious rumors that he stabbed his father, and his menacing demeanor doesn't help things. But over time, they sort of strike up a sort of friendship their ostracization from the community draws them together. They start to talk until an incident with the boy that uses her causes your character to be kicked out of school maybe while they were getting closer, she stopped allowing the first boy to use her, and he made a public threat to her. Maybe your character kicked his ass, which led him to be suspended. Shortly after, my character is home alone when the guy she used to see comes knocking, like he used to. She refuses him but he doesn't care, breaks into her house and threatens to rape her. She panics, grabs the closest sharp implement and stabs him, killing him. She doesn't know what to do, so she shows up at your door, covered in blood and freaking out or maybe he comes to her, maybe he's been keeping a look-out for her, ever sense being suspended and he comes up with a plan that he's already been thinking of-- they're going to go on the run together. He hotwires a car and they're out of there, with the cops on their heels. If we decide that he arrives at her house instead of she at his maybe he plants evidence to make it look as though she were kidnapped by him, to protect her in case they're caught. Maybe she'd stabbed the guy with the a knife that your character had given her for protection, and it has his initials carved in it. As they're on the run, occasionally being recognized and caught on tape at gas stations and rest stops, relying on your character's delinquent education to steal what they need and protect themselves, the investigation into the incident continues, led by my character's father. But as he's reviewing the evidence, maybe he finds reason to believe that his daughter went willingly with your character, and doesn't want to be found. He struggles with his want to reunite with his daughter, and the knowledge that if she is recovered, she may be facing murder charges. I have some ideas as to where it could go after that, as well as maybe some of your character's backstory if you wanted to work together on that, but what do you think so far? I promise my feelings won't be hurt if you're not interested! This one is definitely more plot-heavy but I think there's plenty of room for smut too, once it gets going. sleepy Click to expand... It's a great idea! It has kind of a rebel feel to it which I like. Which NPCs do you want to have main control over? Is there some kind of link between the bad boyfriend's girlfriend and the others? I'm guessing that your character is about 16 or 17, so I can make mine 18 if you'd like since they're in high school. Where in the storyline do you want to start? I'm totally okay going as far back as you'd like and then working forwards. I totally thought of this guy when you talked about the broken police father who drowns his sorrows in alcohol. He's from Arrow, one of my guilty pleasures. What a great back story you have for them! I instantly felt a connection with the characters. Yes. I really want to do this one! Click to expand... Yay! I don't know why I was so nervous to share my idea, I guess I'm rather attached to this one. It all sort of came to me the other day... I have loads more ideas for it, but I think roleplays work out better when we work together to sort them out. I was thinking we could start soon after your character has moved to her school? We can pre-establish her relationship with the other guy, and over time maybe she reveals what happens with her parents to him, as he shares his story with her. What happened with her mother will of course be common knowledge to everyone else, but your character would be shrouded in mystery... Until they bond. I was thinking we could both control her father as needed he doesn't have to be a huge part of the roleplay and maybe you would control the other guy? Just so I'm not writing scenes by myself. Responding to your other message your motive is pretty similar to the idea I had! And I like the pictures you linked I still haven't really thought of anything for mine, but I will. Click to expand... That all sounds great. Well, I'm happy for us to get started or to keep plotting if you like. I'm pretty happy to add this to the list of active role plays whenever you want to get started. Click to expand... I wasn't thinking of starting until after the move, but now I'm feeling really pumped about it, and I sort of want to start soon... Maybe we could plot a little more, and start it in the next few days? Click to expand... As you wish. So the bad boyfriendbooty call, what's his name? What is he all about? Is he from a wealthy family or is he some kind of jock? Click to expand... I have some ideas for him. Maybe on the surface he's clean-cut, a nice, easy-going guy... But unknown to everyone besides my character, he's a meth-head, and very cruel and controlling of my character, because they both know he's the only person who will give her the time of day. He likes the power he has over her, and when she finally has the confidence to refuse him, it enrages him. Just a note about him though, I'd like to steer clear of actually roleplaying rape I think we've talked about this before but just to clarify. Before, she agreed reluctantly, but there was no force involved... And she murders him before he can rape her, on the night she tries to send him away. I don't mind using it as a plot element, but I definitely don't want to actually play it out in any way. sleepy Maybe your character has an inkling of that too... Maybe his dad is the guy's supplier, a major drug dealer. When they run away, your character could steal some of his supply, to sell when they're on the road. Maybe a few times, the deals don't go well and additional murders will have to be committed... I have about a million ideas for where this story could go. Click to expand... Ha ha! It's interesting that murder is okay but rape isn't? LOL. Maybe the booty-call doesn't die but they think he's dead, so later when they do get out of the mess it works out to self-defense and a panic flee. This reminds me slightly of a plot idea I worked on a long time ago with a Beauty and the Beast kind of interaction, but unfortunately that one died out. This one already has more meat in the story line. Click to expand... Yeah, it's weird. I love horror movies, I can watch stuff like SAW without flinching, but rape scenes freak me the hell out. huh Unless they think that your character stabbed the guy because he was jealous of him, and abducted my character. Who are they going to believe, upstanding nice guy or delinquent with a violent past, especially when the nice guy is still alive and needs a cover story? I think perception plays a lot into this plot. There's a lot of it open to interpretation. Is it too similar? We can change things if you want, I don't want it to be repetitive for you. Click to expand... There can be all kinds of plot twists and turns. Heck, maybe in the end my character winds up taking the fall for yours, and serves time for her? Then we can always take up the story later in their lives. It's not too similar. Not at all. The entire premise is different and I know that I'll get collaboration from you as far as the pursuers and such. Click to expand... It's like you're reading my mind! Ah, I'm so excited for this! Usually my ideas come to me, piece by piece, but this one came all at once and I'm really pumped to play it out. Is there anything else you were thinking? We don't have to plan it all out now, of course, but I'd love to hear what you're thinking about it. Click to expand... My brain always goes to subplots. I want to figure out the interactions between booty-call, prep girl, their parents, and my character's parents. Maybe the kids get roped in by the feds to go under cover in return for amnesty, and they get tangled up in gang things. Click to expand... Sorry, that message sent before I wanted it to, and then I got pulled away for a moment. Maybe that's how your character gets out of prison, he works out a deal to work under cover for them, infiltrating all of his dad's clientele assuming you wanted his dad to be a dealer that would explain his wealth, anyway. Click to expand... Now THAT is a great idea! I love that idea, and then he and YC can run into each other at that point. I wonder what she will have done with her life in the meantime?
