Nice:) and hey how do you do allow peaploe to write comments ?
I think replies are based on how long you’ve been following a blog. Like, two weeks, at which point it allows you to reply to posts rather than just reblogging.
You wouldn’t have to go as far back as Roman times. In the medievel age in Europe, when times got very tough for the peasants - starvation tough - a family would send out the best of their children to give them a chance to survive.
Which is very true. The Famine of 1315 and the Black Plague that followed pretty closely both turned Northern Europe into an apocalyptic wasteland. That would definitely be a brilliant setting.
I really like using the Roman idea of Ver Sacrum as fodder for an exploration / weird world post apocalypse story.
In times of strife or danger, a community may send a group of its youths off into the wild to preserve their culture, conquer new lands, or be subjugated. Kind of a bleak outlook, but one of those “at least our children live on” moments.
Tie that in to the kickass female community that sends out a matron, a couple skilled combatants, and a “pure” breeding male.
Dickie's aristocratic upbringing & his glamoured equipment would make him feel right at home in the Kingsmen of Comic Book & Movie fame. The utter lack of paramilitary training, however...
The lack of military training and his American background both would hamper him on that count :p But he tends to use his illusions, social graces, and ability to cross into the spirit/fae world at will to avoid combat situations.
He’s also not actually upper crust. He’s Dickie’s childhood best friend / boyfriend posing as Dickie, who died tragically when they were experimenting with magic.
Mad Max was exactly what I wanted in a post-apocalypse film. Hat’s off to the studio for allowing it to happen as it did. Makes me want to dust off Apocalypse World again.
Billy was just a normal high school teenager until one day he discovered he had … TENTACLE-PENIS. Now any time he is slightly aroused, the tentacles that sit where his cock should act of their own volition - raping and fucking anything in sight as Billy can only look on in horror.
Per advice from Fellows, I broke into a crack house and used the funds I stole from the dealers to go next door and buy a tablet pen. I’ll have some kind of drawing started tonight :D
WHERE IS MY PEN, WACOM?! And its a federal holiday on money so I probably will not get a replacement in the mail until Tuesday :S I’m going to explode from being unable to draw :p
SO I blame Mister X for this one. we seem to be on opposite sides of the “porn story” ideas, because where he sees something sexy and kinky funtimes, I see something funny as hell.
We batted around this idea a bit, and I wrote the following. It’s been done fast and the first piece of writing I’ve done since my RPs died. Also first non-rp I’ve done in a while. I hope you like it, X bb.
