I. BASIC INFORMATIONS
EXPECTATIONS
- I'm open to chatting anytime, be it about our plot or anything else.
- I won't rush you, ever. Take all the time you need.
- My grammar is competent and my style versatile. (I can send a writing sample upon request)
- My posts tend to be on the long side. If that's a problem, I'll shorten them. If you enjoy length (*cough*), you should be given plenty.
- Diversity in characters, moods, style - as well as in romance, gender, sexualities.
- I can't think of a single genre which I wouldn't be willing to explore given an interesting plot.
- Sometimes I draw stuff

- Politeness, communication and respect.
- No rushing, please. This is a hobby, not a job.
- You to be able to play characters of different genders, sexualities, ethnicities, body types (having a preference is fine, I have some too, but if you can only play - say - straight white females, I don't think we'll get along)
- You to tell me when I do something you don't like, or if you're uncomfortable with where the story is going.
- I'd rather you were an adult. 16+ at the very least. I'm sure you're a wonderful person and am not questioning your maturity, it would just make me feel awkward.
- Apart from that, just be a decent human being and we should be cool

TASTES AND DISLIKES
To let you know what I'm about.
- Character Development
- Conflicts (internal, such as dilemmas, or between characters)
- Mental breakdowns, tragedies, angst
- Hurt/Comfort
- Teasing, people being loving assholes.
- Friendships, fraternal bonds.
- Love in general, though it is never mandatory. Passion.
- Complex relationships & dynamics, ambiguity
- Sexual tension, smut (adult members only & all Iwaku rules apply)
- Use of the environment as symbolism, such as in dream worlds (symbolism reflecting the characters' psychology) or dystopias, tyrannic societies (reflecting our own society, human nature...)
- World-building
- Exploration
- Investigations (e.g criminal)
- Mysteries, enigmas, having a long-term plot/mystery in the background of smaller sub-plots
- Grey morals. I can't stress this enough.
- SCIENCE. SPACE. I'm a nerd. forgive me.
- Forbidden love (when well done)
- Age gaps
- Opposites
- Political games, power play (think House of Card, Dangerous Liaisons or GoT)
- Characters that are outside the societal norm of perfection and normality (queer, poc, non-binary, not standardly pretty or thin, etc)
- Incest
- Rape between our characters
- Recreational drug usage (I know it's a part of reality, but I can't. Alcohol is ok in certain cases, discuss it with me)
- Self-insertion
- Overly-powerful characters
- Stereotypes
- Rhythms that stagnate, are too slow, or too fast-paced
- Lack of balance between characters. Should smut ensue (18+), I'm ok with dom/sub dynamics in the bedroom, but our characters have to be equal matches outside.
- Canon x OC
- Furries. Ponies. Stuff. Fantastic creatures are ok. But you know what I'm talking about. No.
II. BUILDING A PLOT
ORIGINAL IDEAS
I used to develop proper plots here, but it didn't turn out to be the best approach after all.Honestly, what I prefer is brainstorming from scratch. It works better. But I know a prompt can be useful to start off - so here we go.
Do not hesitate to mix some together or with story prompts.
Not fond of AxB, to be honest, but it's efficient. - Criminal Investigator x friend/helper who is secretly the serial killer Ø
- Criminal Investigator x Lawyer
- Musician x Lyricist/muse
- Composer x Dancer Ø
- Famous author x Young film maker Ø
- Professor x PhD student
- Pretentious down to earth genius x dreamy artist with confidence issues Ø
- Psychiatrist x Patient
- Person passionate about something x Person who is strongly against it (religion, military, political cause...)
- Pirate x Captured Amiral (sea or space)
- Pirate x Explorer (sea or space)
- General/Knight x Royalty/Emperor Ø
- Soldier/Warrior x War doctor/Healer
- War prisoner x Enemy soldier/enemy war doctor
- Warrior/ess x Witch/Wizard/Mage
- Demon x Hunter
- Guardian Angel x Guarded human Ø
- Reaper x Psychic Ø
- Artist x Muse (literally)

• Criminal investigations in unusual time period/universes. (e.g - athenian crime solving, space detectives)
• Creative crimes by evil masterminds (with a cause, or not). Ø
• A bored, cynical, sarcastic spell-maker who's been around for a couple thousands years meets a wannabe witch/wizard with a surprising potential. Ø
• Childhood friends breaking each other's heart.
• QUESTS.
• Escaping from somewhere with an extremely efficient and complex security.
• Two people who do not speak a word of the same language having to live/travel together. Ø
• The building of a polyamory relationship with all the complicated feelings that go with it. Ø
• (Inspired by The Lobster) In a country where being adult and single is illegal and violently repressed, two supposedly aromantic best friends pretend to be a couple. But one day, one of them falls in love with a third party.
• A world where humans are missing an ability - could be one of the five senses, the power to feel emotions, being sensitive to art/beauty... - which your character suddenly acquires.
• Post-apocalypse of any kind: humanity and its culture have been practically wiped out, and generations later, our characters go to explore the world.
• Overthrowing a tyrannic government is always a go for me.
• Humanity discovers a new planet that inhabits life for the first time, your character is an astronaut and mine an indigene. (Not a romantic plot) Or they're both astronauts. (possibly romantic)

- Medieval Japan
- Pre-USSR Russia
