[fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px transparent solid; font-family: bellerose; color: white; text-align: justify; overflow: auto; width: 350px; height: 140px;] Yay, plotting threads~ c:

Okay, so out of curiosity, did you already have a general plot idea in mind for the very beginning? Like, specific events you want to happen? Or is it just "go with the flow" at the moment?
[/fancypost]

[font=rosemary]Ok hi!! Yay I'm excited to start plotting.

Serenity, I feel like I might be getting this idea from you and an earlier thread - so stop me if I'm correct in this feeling - but we need the angels to expose themselves, no? So maybe we put the humans in danger? Like a fire or a car accident? I don't know, I just think that we need to begin in a way that almost immediately involves everyone.

[fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px transparent solid; font-family: bellerose; color: white; text-align: justify; overflow: auto; width: 350px; height: 140px;] Just reading all of that has gotten me pumped for this. I've missed being on this website with people that actually think about their threads XD

Okay, I REALLY like the idea of them going out for a weekend _{[do friends do that..? i dunno]}. How about they could be returning from the trip, though? Maybe they went out camping or something - just to get away from work and things - and then on the way back they end up in a car crash.

Maybe.

In my personal opinino, I'd say we should have it all take place in a city. I'm not sure what city [you guys can decide that and I'll go with it], but I like that better. It makes more sense for the group to have a lot at their disposal, not just for ideas on what to do throughout the day [jobs, places to go, parties, etc], but for the angels to take in, as they might not have ever really mingled with human society. Why not have them be thrown into the midst of it all, and then later they could all go out into the country and have them see the complete difference?

Just a thought we could maybe possibly use c:

[fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px transparent solid; font-family: bellerose; color: white; text-align: justify; overflow: auto; width: 350px; height: 140px;] You've tried to start this thread three times? I'm so sorry it hasn't worked out! xc It's a very lovely thread, and I'm sad to hear that it's never really started up.

All the drinks that never happened~ XD Or did they..? We'll never know! XP

I mean, I dunno 'bout cities other than Dallas or San Antonio. If people end up showing interest in those two then I can tell you all about them, but tbh nobody ever uses them, SOOOOOOO guess I'm out XD

All I know is that I'm really excited for what we could do with all of this. I am coming up with more dangerous plot lines, though, rather than basic living things. I'm not sure if you'd like a bunch of action or not, so I kinda don't know where to go from here >~<' How much danger do you want rather than day-to-day, "let's deal with angels in our lives now" plots?

[fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px transparent solid; font-family: bellerose; color: white; text-align: justify; overflow: auto; width: 350px; height: 140px;] Let's hope it's the charm! c:

And now... We wait XD

The directions I keep taking are of either natural disastors [mass flooding due to a storm, tornados/hurricanes, etc.] or of something having to do with the influx of crime. You know, kind of like The Purge thing? It's either that, or more supernatural stuff, which I'm considering going into depth on because guardian angels are a thing, so why not a bunch of other shhhtuff? xP
[/fancypost]

[font=rosemary]I really really like the idea of them coming back from a trip! Maybe either something like they'd been at the beach, or else they were hiking/camping? If they're living in a city, something totally un-city like.

Also, I'd be willing to learn abut other cities and stuff. I mostly know about places like Philadelphia, Boston, New York City - places on the east coast. But I'd be willing to do something Southern if everyone else was into it.

edit: I kind of like the idea of supernatural happenings increasing that Finley suggested? I don't know, maybe just keeping it to different kinds of angels but still, like the city becomes a battleground or something? Just some discord?

Another thing I've been wondering: how should all the humans be connected? Did they go to high school together? Did they accidentally meet one day in their city? Have they been family friends since forever? ??????

[fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px transparent solid; font-family: bellerose; color: white; text-align: justify; overflow: auto; width: 350px; height: 140px;] @тяανєℓℓєя;; I would think it would depend on what time of the year it is. If it's extremely warm out, the beach seems like a better option, while camping would be nicer when it's cooler or just about to be the end of spring. Y'know, for logic's sake.

I know nothing about Philadelphia or Boston, but I know about NYC. I've also role-played in NYC before, so I would be comfortable if we had it take place there. All my concern with it is that EVERYONE uses that as their place to be, since it's a common place, and let's be honest, I'm too hipster for that XD

Skipping over to the comment on how everyone is connected - as it can kind of go with where their residence will be - how about one of the first two options? While it might be a little hard to get them all to meet randomly in the city, it wouldn't be unlikely for them to meet through one person. You know, a mutual friend relation until the others grew to want to be with everyone at once and not just be like "ehhhh people I don't know, gotta stay by the one I actually like or they'll bite me" kinda thing. It would make sense for them to have met in high school, though, especially their junior or senior year, so that when they left they already knew who they could go to for friendship. It would also make sense to have them in a small area then move to a big city, having the South be a more tempting target.

Of course, all of that is just my opinion. We could go with something completely different and I'd still be happy c:

I think if we're going for a bigger city, something like Jacksonville could also work? Some real whackjobs there that would keep the angels on their feet protecting the humans, and popular beaches are close by. I know a bit about Philadelphia and NYC as well, but I am also currently living in the pit of nowhere (the closest somewhere being 10 hours away), so I can't give much beyond those. I mean, I used to be a big city person, so I know how places like it work, thought that was Jacksonville. Florida is all around a crazy place not like anywhere I've seen in the USA.

[fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px transparent solid; font-family: bellerose; color: white; text-align: justify; overflow: auto; width: 350px; height: 140px;] Your energy and happiness for the fact that everyone is plotting is probably the greatest thing ever ^~^

I feel like for continuity's sake we should also consider the characters' backstory. Miya was from NYC and then moved to where everyone is now for a teaching opportunity, Hitomi was from a small town [made vague on purpose for the purposes of multiple thread usage] and then moved to the city with her brother after she figured out she wanted to go to college, and I'm probably going to have Cody come from the same town as Hitomi but have him move to the large city much sooner than her, for the sake of his occupation. If we were to pick a setting for this thread and how the characters all got to know each other, I would say have them go to a city that is right in between those two settings [which, in this case, we have no idea of as I did not go into detail over what city Hitomi was from >~<'] and have them meet through Hitomi, as she could meet Miya through a work experience [she will most likely be a hair stylist] and then run into Cody again, therefore being able to bring all of them together.

It makes sense for me to take backstory into consideration, because if we say that they know each other through high school then move to the big city together, it will go against the written continuity. If we wanted we could change the backstories to coincide with the plot we want, but unless we want to do that I suggest we try to honor the histories of our characters and work around them.

As for the fallen angels idea, I like how they would try to interfere with the humans' lives, but I feel like they would still have their wings, don't you think? Fallen angels do have wings, after all; they're just black to represent how far gone they are from how they used to be. I've always seen fallen angels as either too mischievous for their own good or just plain evil, so if we wanted to incorperate them as antagonists, we could have them see the humans, notice that they're different than others, figure out it's because they've seen their guardian angels, and then decide they want to screw around/straight up kill them or something. You know, to spite the guardian angels and make them fail their missions.

And if we really wanted to, we could have that issue and a natural issue. Maybe if a natural occurance happens, the humans could be saved by their angels yet again and come out with barely a scratch, while the rest of the city is in shambles. The occurance could either be caused by just nature itself, or maybe the fallen angels could have manipulated some things and caused the event to occur. It all depends on how long we want to keep the thread up, I suppose. Then maybe while the group is trying to escape the city to go find refuge somewhere else, the fallen angels could be hunting them the whole time, eventually leading up to a battle - maybe when/if the guardian angels get their wings back?

Something like that. I dunno.

I don't know about all of you, but I'm willing to stay in the thread as long as needed! I'm totally pumped for it, and you guys are fantastic company, so there really isn't a reason why I shouldn't want to be here a while c: In fact, I've been debating on whether or not I want to make a thread, and I already know who I'm going to invite to it if I do ever make it. So I'm up for being here however long we need to be here! ^~^

I am up for being on this thread for a while! This one other thread I joined a few days ago already died out, and so the fact that you, Musical Serenity, are so hyped about this really makes this a lot better.

The nice thing about all these big cities is that they all have outlying cities; most larger cities will always be surrounded like that. It's rare for a large city to just pop up on the side of the road with no smaller communities around it. But, my character being an angel, my backstory really doesn't need to be taken into consideration for location. I can help and maybe give insight on cities, however. I have some personal experience with locations along the east coast, so if you need anything on that, I'm open for helping.

I've always seen fallen angels as not allowing their wings to be taken from them. They always seem to be rather independent creatures, and it would probably take a lot of force and skill to catch them to take their wings. If they were to interfere in some ways, that'd be cool [though that might just be my odd fascination with fallen angels].

[fancypost bgcolor=transparent; border: 0px transparent solid; font-family: bellerose; color: white; text-align: justify; overflow: auto; width: 350px; height: 140px;] I don't think energy could ever chase me away. I'm pretty much a calmer version of Hitomi tbh XD

As I don't really know anything about the East Coast, I'll let you guys determine a place around there. I'll be perfectly okay with whatever place, so long as we can work with it plot wise and get away with destroying it XD

If we go with the Fallen Angel idea, how do we want to go about implimenting them into the story? Do we want to make them only visible to the other angels, so the humans just think a bunch of natural disaster stuff is going on? Or do we want to keep up the "these humans are special now" kind of thing where they can just see all of the supernatural battles take place? Of course, this is all just assuming if we go with the idea.

I will absolutely post a link here! I'm glad you're interested! c: I've just got to figure out the layout of the thing then it'll get made!

Maybe have the fallen angels be able to make it so that they can be seen at will? Like, the other humans can only see the angels if the angels want to be seen, that way they can make things happen without it being known as them (the angels would know, of course), but they could also cause some havoc with appearing out of nowhere if they wanted to.
