Project "Complete;" Time for the Next One

[aldersprig]

My planned project for June 2014 Nano is going to be a series of short stories/a serial adventure story tentatively named Escape from Rochester.

Its tagline is "6,444,000,000 people are about to die. Raven cares about 31 of them."

And... yes, it's my practice-killing-characters-off story.

It's set in Fae Apoc, in Rochester, NY (probably), right in the middle of the apoc, and stars Raven, probably-a-Faded fae, and approx 62 of Raven's closest friends, associates, and chance-met strangers.

What I am looking for:
* 30 ways to die in the apoc
(slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free)

* 62 or so fae apoc characters, Faded, near-Faded, or human, with as much detail as you want to give me. Want to be a cameo in a story? Write that up. Want to kill off a version of someone you don't like in my story? Let me know!

* anything else!

* Oh Yeah: good gods for Rochester, NY

You need a God of Too Much Snow;
A death by: blinded by gods' glow,
Falls from a ledge onto the street,
There trampled under giant feet;
A bearded man whose walking stick's
Hand-carved in barber-pole helix;*
A child who's saved by Winnie-the-Pooh...
And I still have a lot to do.
Good night!

* Though I should add before I go
That that would be my cameo.

Ooh, sounds like fun!

Run over by a car
Driving a car that suddenly develops a mind of its own
Crushed under a collapsing building
Was on top of the collapsing building
Fire starts under feet
Dissected for human-angel transformation experiments
Eaten by cats
Killed by evil twin
Accidentally consumed broken glass
Backfiring firearm
Slipped on banana peel into bear trap
Slipped on ice over cliff

*grins* I like the way your mind works.

Edited (cat walked on my keyboard)

Oh yeah.

ETA: PS: It only occurred to me after posting that the line in my icon here is the title of a song by one of my favorite filkers, Cat Faber.

Hah--fun song!

Do not forget NTID:
Dead purple Deaf people, maybe two or three...
And take that Swypo as a cue:
What can "dead purple" do for you?

[aldersprig]

Yeah, no RIT kid can forget NTID, but that's a good call. (Several of my friends were dating/married interpreters over the years...)
