[OPEN] [2nd Story] As if it couldn't get any worse... - nOmnomnOm - 09-30-2013
THIS THREAD IS OPEN TO ALL
Lets get the creative juices flowing shall we?
Here is the idea:
As a community lets make our own RP story together. Lets make this a bit interesting and fun too shall we?
Here are the RULES for this thread.
PLEASE READ THEM BEFORE POSTING ANTHING!
1. You may only post ONE sentence.
2. As the title suggests, each post (or almost each post... like 90%) should slowly get more worse and worse. There can be filler sentence for example that seem to be getting better only to end up being worse. Therefore NOT every post MUST be worse... but there should be a consistency of it making it progressively worse.
3. Elongate the story as MUCH as possible while keeping the starting character alive as LONG as possible. Lets see how long we can keep this up. Note here that you may introduce other characters but the MAIN one from the START must be kept alive.
4. No double posting. Wait your turn as in let other people post too if things get crowded. If you get ninja-ed.... life sucks. Edit it to fit or take it out.
5. No posting tiny sentences/normal sentences that basically blocks the next person from continuing (such as 'there once was a character'.... INSTA DEATH) UNLESS there is no other way to continue. As it is mentioned in #3 the name of the game is to see how long it can last. As long as there is a way out without suddenly ending the story, then cool.
EXAMPLE of what not to do:
"There once was a character."
"A man walks up to the character."
"The man shoots the character dead."
6. Remember that its only one sentence allowed. You may have an idea only to have another person make a plot twist on it. That's part of the nature of the game.
7. Keep the posts fluid as if its one continuous story. As said there can be filler sentences. You can also expand on the previous post, giving description or detail.
8. The mood doesn't matter. Can be funny (funny doesn't mean immature.), can be serious. Whatever. Just remember the next person can always change the mood.
9. DISCO LORE. Keep it in the lore of discovery freelancer. We are on the Disco forums after all. So like... no Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter stuff
... I'm watching you ...10. Last but not least, have fun! Oh and no OORP.
After the death of the main character (the first person that is mentioned/introduced in the story) the story ends. I will then collect all the sentences, put them together, and post them here http://discoverygc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=108109 . Then the next story will begin starting with me. This again repeats.
Lets begin!
A ship docks on one of the docking ports on Planet Manhatten, New York.

A Junker, Roderick, starts shutting down the systems of his Anki as he prepared to leave the ship, hints of caution inching into his mind as he thought about what was in the cargo crates on board his ship.
Killed a lolsy reply within the first minute of this being up, I guess I have to watch this thread.

Shutting down the last of the systems, Roderick tries to ignore the very thought of being caught and charged for smuggling Artifacts onto the planet just for a damn client that he barely knew.

Close in the distance he could make out the faint outline of a Grizzly and two Liberator's sitting next to it; there were five officers near them, including a handcuffed Junker.

The trashy Junker called out to Roderick in a panic, causing the officers to stir.

Roderick mumbles something inaudibly, tiredly reaching over and pulling out a cigarette, which he promptly lights, glaring at the sight in front of him, debating what to do.

Roderick toys with the idea of letting the other Junker go to jail for a moment, then dismisses it, he begins for the exit of his ship while reaching for his credit chip, wondering how much it'll cost to keep his little brother from ending up behind bars again.
RE: [OPEN] As if it couldn't get any worse... - Zen_Mechanics - 09-30-2013
Roderick quickly realizes that he cannot afford his brother's release legaly and he therefore thougth perhaps bribing one of the officers would be a better idea.
RE: [OPEN] As if it couldn't get any worse... - Pepe - 09-30-2013
But having 5 officers on one place could make bribing idea ends bad, so picking out just one of them seems like much better plan.
RE: [OPEN] As if it couldn't get any worse... - nOmnomnOm - 09-30-2013
He sighs as he opens the door latch and starts heading out of the ship, still keeping in mind his cargo, when he hears his brother cry out in pain.
