Spring Brings Rebirth
There are a couple stories recently that didn't get off the ground that I really liked. As I got to reminiscing about what they could have been, it made me yurn for a a couple other ideas that never got off the ground ... or died on the vine. Since spring is the time for rebirth after a long winter, I thought I would see if there were any female co-writers willing to take them on.
With one exception (as noted below), all of these I am willing to start over again and rework as needed - because as much as I want to respect the original idea ... if you are my new co-writer then I need to respect your ideas too.
The Evil Lair
While there is a chance this co-writer comes back, I was too excited about this idea to let it linger. Inspired by the immortal "Dr. Horrible's Sing-A-Long Blog"; this is a slightly goofy tale about a evil doer who kidnaps the girlfriend of a superhero expecting to bring her back to his lair for a brief period until ransom is paid. That brief period turns into longer and longer time - during which these two ... well .. you can figure that one out. There's actually more than a few routes this could go, some romantic, some spiteful, nearly all funny.
The Oracle of Valcyra
Subject to revamping & redirection if the period/theme isn't perfect to your liking - this story follows a blooming relationship between a blind seer and her keeper. At first, the young keeper does his best to follow his duties, but he can't help but to take advantage of the seer in different states of meditation. The underlying story-line is the goddess whom uses the seer as her vessel is the one that brought these two together, knowing that the keeper will be the one to protect the girl when trouble comes.
The Flower Girl & The Square
She is a environmentally conscious activist whom is helping out the cause to stop a mine from being built in a sensitive part of the countryside. He works for the mine; but during a visit to a music festival falls for her. As she falls for him and continues to recruit him to a cause, he has to fight to hide that he is in fact the enemy. I would have some limitations on her character, but otherwise I am looking for a restart on this thread.
At The King's Mercy
She is strong, a born leader, and the undeniable leader of a blood army set on fighting for any cause with a rich enough ruler in need of their aggressive ways. She’s arrived at a Land whose army may be weak but he certainly isn’t. When a court full of soldiers makes for poor negotiations, they move to his chambers. There the negotiations break down, he gains the upper hand, and forces himself onto her. As strong as this woman is on the battlefield, his hands on her the way no man ever has brings out a weakness that lights a fire in her like no other. This is pictured as a reluctant start to a light D/s result - please review my SRP to know more of my approach to this. This thread is one that never got started, so we would have full reign to start from scratch.
The Specialist
Of all the ideas here, this one is the one that I would rather not start over - because I really enjoyed the development to this point. However, I would consider a different tactic that would restart it, like if it will still use my character and the setting.
In the world of international espionage, there are those who are contracted to take action against people whom the world would be better without. She is one whom is gaining a reputation for her abilities and skill; however, they are far from perfect. Enter 'The Specialist', a mysterious man whom, if you had heard of him at all you know he has skills to turn even the best contract killer into a better one. No word escapes on his techniques, and he himself is never sure what the proper technique is. As he breaks down her weaknesses, he finds there are weaknesses in his own self that she could mend.
....
So there it is. If you are interested in any of these ideas, let me know and we can discuss.
