gobrookeyourselfOkay, the genderswappy is over, which means I get to give you something new to look forward to. Well, technically, two somethings.
See, homecoming weekend is going to be October 10. That's one thing. Unfortunately for the people of Fandom, that means October 11-12 will also be Soap Opera Weekend.
Now I know you all know how soap operas work, even if you don't watch them. The name of the game is Crack. (Its middle name is totally Danger.) Thanks to a little TV mishap, if you so choose, your characters will wake up on Saturday morning technically still themselves, but soap operaed up. For instance, Brooke will still know herself as Brooke, but if I decide she's going to be a drug-addicted supermodel who was adopted by the richest family like ever ala Emily Quartermaine on General Hospital, for the weekend that's all true. If I decide Lily's going to be sekritly married to three other guys on the island that she wasn't to yesterday, that can also be true. (She won't be, don't worry, Marshall.) They'll all think the changes are perfectly normal.
And since this is on homecoming weekend when everyone's around anyway, this plot is open to everyone, and it gives the opportunity for alumni to be affected while in Fandom. Just like the good ol' days!
( rules! )
That's the basics. I'm also throwing down a comment below for brainstorming, should anyone have something they WANT to see that weekend that they don't automatically claim for themselves, or you want to find someone to be your new husband/wife/suspected babyparent/evil twin/supposedly-dead parent/Kelly to your Brenda.
Whee!
