The brains, they are storming (7/30/08)

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

Hello and welcome to the latest brainstorming post. No idea too big or too small.

Here's the last brainstorming post if you want to take a look at ideas and do more work with them.

One of the ideas that came up last time was the concept of having things that could be useful to someone else's plot without knowing if someone had a need to make use of them. So we'll have an OCD "plot spare parts" thread for anyone who'd like to use it. (An example of a "plot spare part" is here in the previous brainstorming post).

OCD is up! Storm away!

A long time ago, someone (I think it was psycho_jackass) suggested a plot where all the bad guys in the various 'verses turned out to be one entity.

It was a fantastic idea and went exactly nowhere, but I wonder if there's some way we could adapt and use it for BDE purposes.

Ooh, yes - that was the point of gremlin_ops, just brainstorming for that idea.

The idea was sort of "KAOS has ties to COBRA has ties to Wolfram and Hart has ties to the Centre has ties to... " etc. Which crosses universes, but also includes a lot of canons that have multidimensional offices or travel abilities, so there's an easy explanation for that without bursting anybody's canon history.

I've long had the theory that Cobra Commander is Voldemort.

Oooh, thanks for the link! I think I must have been reminded by seeing it on Tyler the Younger's comms list.

Oh, dude, that was ages ago. I mentioned a student character that I was planning to app in one of the posts and I have no idea who that was going to be.

That'd be fun to play with, though, if people want to start that up again.
