I kinda joined mixed_muses because I kinda miss RP and it looked like somewhere to get inside the heads of some of my OCs, but... it all seems to take place in Milliways. Which... lasting trauma, say sorry.

Pooooossibly I should try somewhere else.

Maybe I'll revamp and resurrect shot in the dark. XD

It's not all there!
You can make it anywhere!

*tugs at sleeve*

I haven't done mixed_muses yet, but I understand that the person who writes the EP can decide the location. If you stay in your own threads, you can choose where they happen.

You know I'd be all over that.

If you manage to find a good OC RP will you let me know? I'm curious to try it.

We need to resurrect sga_mailcall, is what we need to do. Think we can turn it into an RP somehow?

[muji]

What tropes do you like? Sci-fi tech (Eureka, SGA), magicky things...?

[djcati.livejournal.com]

It is an unfortunate normality, yes. You can totally post anything you come up with, though, and ignore all the Milliposts. It's rare, but people do do it, so you'll still totally get tags.

Depends on what sort of characters I'm thinking of taking out for a walk, but it's more likely to be low-level urban sci-fi or modern crime drama, to be honest. I have Brigstocke-levels of dislike for magic. D:

Wow, I totally sound like a valley girl.

[muji]

See, I think a great OC RP would be like ... absolutely normal town, with just one thing that was skewed or different or what have you.

I think such is why I'm a Eureka dork. >_>;;

[muji]

Totally! *runs*

[djcati.livejournal.com]

Like, omigosh!

If that "one thing" is zombies I am SO THERE.

[muji]

*lip wibble* I fail at zombies. How do you mean?

[muji]

...Lynne and I have been talking about this for awhile by now on gchat. Um. I have Ideas, if this is not entirely crappy to you.

[apiphile.livejournal.com]

You said a small town where one thing is skewed. My standard solution to writer's block has often been to throw (http://apiphile.livejournal.com/880942.html#cutid1) zombies (http://apiphile.livejournal.com/923087.html#cutid1) at it (http://apiphile.livejournal.com/1177537.html#cutid1) until it stops boring/annoying me, I like the idea of taking characters and sticking them in the town and then saying; "and now, ZOMBIES."

Which beats the other "my god this story is annoying me" solution which was to flatten the main characters with a giant fibreglass cow. It destroyed the sex scene but my GOD it felt good.

...do you have access to your email right now?

[apiphile.livejournal.com]

I do I do. :)

[muji]

Shoot me an email so I can get yours: milliways.mal @ gmail . com.

[genarti]

It doesn't all! You specify in your EP, as others have said. A lot do take place in Milliways or in generic-bar-that's-Milliways-with-the-serial-numbers-filed-off, and I don't know if the preponderance of those EPs will be a problem for you anyway. *hugs* But for your own, you can put your characters anywhere you want.

[agonistes]

John and I played Jim and Dwight at Dunder Mifflin! It can happen!!

[ashen_key]

Like other people say, it can take place anywhere you want - that's why in the subject line, you state where it is you're placing your EP.

[batyatoon]

*makes sad puppyeyes at you*

If you bring someone into mixed_muses specifying elsewhere? I will throw a character at you who has never even been to Milliways. Promise.

That's where I set all my posts. I'm not really interested in it being Milliways; it's just a convenient set up. Most who for serious use it are testing out actual new characters that will go there. My Mixed Muses just need a place to hang out.

*snugs you*

I'd invite you to Morningstar Manor only I think you'd find it too tame.
