Hi. I never do 1x1 because I'm not interested in the romance setting they usually demand. But I've read your OP and liked that you feel, as I do, that romance is secondary to the plot and only if the story calls for it. Having said that, I am interested in the Spy plot: [quote] Situation 1: MC and YC are from the same organization/government and are assigned to a mission that goes terribly wrong.[/quote] My idea is based on an old RP I had GM about a secret CIA agency that works outside of Langley and from Congressional oversight. Though they are monitored and constantly investigated by the NSC. The story arc, involves the investigation of unexplained phenomena, secret organizations, conspiracy theories, and UFO sighting investigation. But since you are not keen on aliens we can focused on investigating conspiracy theories. We can discuss the details and plan a proper plot together. Or, if you are interested in something else that will work too. I'm pretty easy. I will be playing a female character and don't really care what gender you choose. And I rather play in an open thread, no PM's. Let me know if this works for you?
