Of all the places to be, you ended up in Moon River.

Situated in sub-rural Wyoming, the town of Moon River sports under three thousand people. It’s a middle of nowhere type of beat, with a whole lot of nothing to go on. With the school year ending and summer opening up, it allows new residents to get a feel of the town they just moved to while those who have been essentially stuck in Moon River their whole lives have the freedom to do what they want to do, even if the options are limited.

The nearest city, if you want to call it that, is Rock Springs. It’s about a two hour drive down the US 191. It’s even farther to get to Cheyenne.

Essentially, you’re not going anywhere. Even if you’ve got a car, two hours is a bit of a time investment. But it isn’t all bad. The town sports a few key locations that the younger crowd tend to congregate around. Of these locations, the most noteworthy is five locales. The local bowling alley, a go-kart track with mini-golf options, an aging record store, the only movie theater around, and an abandoned department store parking lot that has been since occupied by the local skater culture. You’re around sixteen years old going into your junior year of High School when the summer ends. It’s time to make the best of it.

So, I haven't done any public RPs on this site before and I want to change that. This is a concept I've been thinking about since my schedule cleared up for writing again. Was wondering if anyone would be particularly interested in helping me frame the idea or participating in telling some fun, stupid teenager stories with me.

If I don't get any other bites in a week or so's time I would not be opposed to just doing this as 1x1. I would like to do it as a group RP though!

Seems interesting and pretty chill, when would this be set?

I was thinking 2023, but I'm malleable to options.

Does that include the Covid pandemic, or is it GM hand waived for RP purposes?

I can go either way depending on what the group feels is more appropriate or interested in.

Personally, I'm 50/50. I feel it could add story beats that could be interesting to write, but you also have to consider weariness from the actual pandemic and if people want to write something that may have directly affected them to potentially a large degree.

Agreed. It can be in poor taste for a lot of people who lost people and don't want to add that into their hobby...

Hmm I see. I'll be interested in any time before 2010, but 2023 is certainly too close to home for me to be interested in.

@PerfectThought Turning it into a period piece isn't completely off the table. Neat idea, but we'll see who all declares interest.

@udonoodles Yeppers. Haven't exactly gotten a lot of interest yet.

in regards to interest, i think sometimes people tend to gloss over the general section. i've seen similar rps get a lot of traction before, so i'd say crossposting to one of the free/casual/advanced check forums and maybe plugging it in the status bar will get more eyes on it.

Then that's 6 (7, if counting GM) people interested. Not sure how many more people @Pluck wants, though.

Yep. I'll be working on it over the weekend.
