DAILY ROUTINE/HANDWAVED CR MEME

DAILY ROUTINE / HANDWAVED CR MEME




While we have our handy dandy bimonthly CR meme, this is a CR meme of a slightly different variety! This is strictly for your characters' daily routines and any kind of CR that's handwaved away.

1. Post a top-level with your character, detailing their daily routine - where they work, where they live, what they do, whatever you like
2. Comment to others and plot around with how your characters would run into each other
3. Comment to others you already have CR with with what they do with each other on a regular basis

EXAMPLE 1:

PLAYER A: My character works at a pizza parlour, frequents brothels, has a bad ping-pong addiction and frequents all the senior homes for RAD COMPETITIONS.
PLAYER B: My character just happens to be a pizza-addicted TABLE TENNIS CHAMP, let's have them compete and run all of the poor old people out of their own homes.

EXAMPLE 2:

PLAYER A: My character is a kleptomaniac television producer who spends all of their time stealing food from the actors and giving it to the poor.
PLAYER B: I know that, and I love you. We already have CR. I think our characters 420 BLAZE IT every Sunday.
PLAYER A: CORRECT.

Go forth, and have fun!

A literature student, you say?? Iris here is a Heropa journalist and would love to befriend a fellow writer. :> come talk shop with her!

I've been really slow in getting back to this simple meme inquiry, and I apologize, but YES!! I like this.

We've got them threading a little bit (which I've also flunked on pretty hard), so we can maybe use that to segue into them meeting up? Or they can incidentally meet at a writer's event? Or Iris can be in charge of press releases for Laurie's novel, even though that's... not really hard-hitting journalism?

Anyway, yes. I'm definitely willing to say they're are mutually-aware colleagues in Heropa's wordsmith sphere.

No worries!! Life happens, and I've been pretty busy myself. :)

I really love the idea of Iris being in charge of Laurie's press releases! It beats her current freelance journalism and it would boost her portfolio; a win-win in her eyes.

We could easily have them meeting up! Even outside the context of a writer's event - I'm sure there's some local Heropa bookstore where all the wordsmiths hang out or smth.
