Brains! Storming everywhere!

So with a new application round open yeah, that's it, and not me forgetting to post this now's a good time to start brainstorming sessions to help folks get creative juices flowing.

The idea here is just that - ideas! If you have random thoughts, plot concepts, hey-wouldn't-it-be-neat-if-we, or what have you, post 'em here! Read other people's thoughts! Offer practical suggestions! Reward good ideas with naked icons! Sky's the limit!

Note: This is brainstorming only. Anything you want to use from this will still need mod approval if it's a mod approval kind of plot. Prices and participation may vary, offer not available in Tennessee.

I have some ideas of my own that I'll post later in the comments, but in case anybody needs help thinking of things to brainstorm about:

1) Are there characters you're considering apping that you'd like to think of plots for?

2) Do you have a current character who could use a new character to help with a story arc?

3) Is there anything you'd like to happen with one of your characters before the end of summer?

4) What fun things could happen in Fandom before the end of summer? Interesting? Dramatic? Wacky? Other?

You're not limited to the above as far as brainstorming goes. That's just something to get the juices flowing.

...not dirty.

So, ponder, put on your thinky caps, and storm away!

I always wanted him to be a career counselor for Fandom High.

"Yes, Teddy. A Super hero is a fine career. But have you ever considered doing autopsies on whales?"

I have no words to describe my glee over that.

"Career Counseling. Yes. It's a dirty job. But someone has to do it."

Hells yeah.

Or, for us Discovery Channel dorks, we could have the Mythbusters show up to disprove glitter causing boykissy!

Hell yeah! The Mythbusters would totally have a hard time! We would rule that show, er, that day!

Re: Oo! OO! I have a brainstormy thought!

Oh yes! Mythbusters trying that would be fun!

You know my mostly-platonic love for you is eternal and ever-growing, right?

Heeeeeeeeey, you know, I was actually thinking about an idea involving, like, people having to live out certain film cliches -- movie musical, kung fu movie, action adventure, etc.

My half-formed notion of how it all came about had to do with someone getting hold of a cursed director's clapboard off eBay . . . oh, hey. "Surreptitiously obtained" scriptwriting software that's magical instead of virus-infected?

Volcano Plot: A Volcano erupts in the preserves creating additional land mass on the island.

Paper helmets are supplied to students as they try to avoid the lava flows

Later the new land mass is used to create a glitter farm. Or a new beach.

FH Reunion: The characters wake up and for one weekend they are ten years older and believe they are there for their class reunion.

I had an idea, less than a plot-- Tabula Rasa day or weekend, with everyone waking up and not knowing who they are, or anyone else for that matter. I've never figured out how to kick it off, though, or how it would end. But I think it would be fun to have characters interacting with no previous knowledge of who they're talking to, or who they are.

And be obsessed with nail polish and...um...some boy band that I'm sure is really popular right now but which I am too geriatric to know the name of.

They can cover Buster in glitter and leave him in Caritas to observe the results!

I wonder if we could do it like the Buffy episode, where everyone uses their Ids or clothes or what not to figure out who they are... so all the people who have roommates of opposite genders would assume they are dating, and people would randomly assume they are related etc

Re: Oo! OO! I have a brainstormy thought!

Some emo band with tight pants maybe?

Now I'm just picturing Aziraphale as the most socially awkward teenage girl ever.

Ooo! I like the reunion idea!

And it totally isn't because of the potential for their kids to be mentioned again. At all.

Exactly!

And you know he would be. He'd be that stereotypical geeky girl with the horn-rimmed glasses and the argyle knee socks.
