Made something of a start on my Corporation and CEO, they'll specialise in cybernetic augmentations, and I'll lay a claim to Sweden and Norway.


Looks like there'll be some rivalry on that field!

Also I believe @Legion02 also planned to claim the Northern European countries, so I think it would be best if you talked it over, made sure there are no conflicts!
ah shit i have to work together with this guy

@Asura Great idea! I'll try to get on Discord.
@ClocktowerEchos How is the world on transhumanism? Mainly thinking stuff like implants/augmentations. I was thinking about writing a related corporation, I just want to know the general limits.

Edit: Also, I would like to claim the remainders of Western and Southern Europe, thinking France, Spain/Portugal (and Italy if it's not too much). Will make the map later!
Oh man, this hits all the right spots! The theme is just perfect and I love writing out multiple characters with different perspectives. I've never done an NRP before so this 'hybrid' should be a great place to start!

Invested--I mean, interested!
As with all other writing scenarios, romance writing can also be divided into two sections: inside feelings and outside actions of your character. These two make up most of your scene and it is entirely up to you which one you prefer. Personally, I like to take the former approach and look inside - you see, most people are a hot mess when it comes to love. :) A thousand thoughts race through the mind, each shouting louder than the last as they have a hell of a time trying to choose what to believe in and what to really think. People's state of mind can tell a lot about their personality, and either give them a defining attribute right away or give space to character growth: some might regard the stammering, awkward guy as 'cute' or they could learn and grow into a suave charmer with some experience!

I've also written with people who are big on writing out the character's surroundings and actions, often subjectively. For example, an otherwise completely ordinary cafΓ© can very well turn into the seventh heaven when 'tinted' with love. This also applies to any other emotion - everything is relative, after all.
Also, the five senses each give a unique perspective on the events playing out, and leveraging them effectively creates, in my opinion, an incredible scene. You can start out with an objective description which twists and turns as new impulses register with your character, or you can focus on something distinct: be it the fragrance of a perfume, the touch of a hand or the pierce of a gaze... Think about it, what is the one aspect of the other that would grab your character's attention immediately?

Of course, moderation is recommended whichever way you take. Writing out feelings, actions and words in great detail can work out well for even the smallest gesture, just make sure not to make it look like your poor character is having an orgasm because the potential loved interest smiled at them.

...unless that is the type of people they are!

@j8cob As hype as I can get about futuristic stuff, it's still very likely climate change will ruin the Earth before we find anything worthwhile in space. Besides, why can't we just do both? It's not like they're mutually exclusive, heck - they both serve the betterment and long-term survival of humanity. Which is as much of an 'ultimate goal' as it can get, isn't it?
>climate change denier
Is this a bad thing?


People like you are the reason the Earth will leave behind humanity before humanity leaves behind the Earth.

I JUST WANT US TO BOLDLY GO SOMEWHERE WE'VE NEVER BEEN TO, DAMMIT hurry up Elon pretty please
Hey. I'm sorry it had to come to this, but...could we suspend our RP for now? As I'm on a break I thought I'd have time and inspiration to write a post, but now that it's almost over, it doesn't seem likely. And with school starting again, it'll be an even greater difficulty. This is why I think it'll be better now that I tell you this. It doesn't mean that the RP is over for good, but I don't want to get your hopes up when I can't deliver, and of course I also don't want to flake.

Once again, I'm very sorry it came to this. You're an absolute joy to RP with and I enjoyed every moment of our adventure. I wish you the bests both in writing and in other endeavours!
@Mr Allen J Hey, sucks it turned out this way, but I appreciate that you're not trying to beat the dead horse, so to say.

I wish you luck in future RP journeys!
