Greentext the plot of your new novel, it's not like is going anywhere

>A boy falls in love with a girl.
Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with the girl’s phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.
But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day’s confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn’t exist in this universe at all. She is the girl’s alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC’s own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.
Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of LOVE.

>last year of high school

>Adventure!

You can fuck off yourself. I just want somebody to show some originality in the OPs of these threads.

>It’a about complicated semi-erotic semi-Platonic relationship: i wouldn’t fuck her but if i got a chance to sneak into her house and smell her panties and jerk off i would....kind of thing

>By half
How does that even work?

Just imagine The World, but instead of stopping it slows everything in a 1:2 ratio.
8 minute mile to a 4 minute mile.

Gravity like falling goes slower, wind, the whole world. Only his body is the same in the time slower. Also due to this, his strength doubles. So say he long jumps usually only 20 feet, if he slows time and only comes out of it as soon as he gets of the air he'll go about 40, a little less though

Look at the first greentext after OP. Look at how original (as far as I know) that concept is. If everything was touched upon, by someone else, the poster of that green text, may as well not right their story. You retard.

u can b honest m8, you just dont like seeing those discouraging words, its not like its going anywhere... m8... use it as fuel... to fuel your fire, to succeed

Going for some of that YA cash eh?

I want her to kiss my feet in respect.

Sounds pretty good

> Man commits a bombing in a major city
> Afterwards he anonymously posts a manifesto explaining his motivation: the world has lost all meaning due to overexposure to media, technology, etc.
> Nobody notices his manifesto and a bunch of separate terrorist organizations claim responsibility for the bombing (ISIS, anarchists, etc.)
> Bomber gets pissed that no one is hearing his message and tries to draw attention to his manifesto by posting about it online
> Soon the police come to him
> He shits himself when he realizes that him trying to draw attention to the manifesto has put him in suspicion
> The police sit him down and tell him to "stop spreading rumors and false leads"
> Man is at first relieved that he's not going to be arrested but soon starts to get pissed that the police don't take his message seriously
> He has an awkward argument with the police where he tries to convince them that the manifesto is real but that he didn't write it
> Eventually the police let him go
> Three days later, he is walking through town when a bomb explodes and injures several people
> He dies in the hospital hours later
> The last chapter is a news article which states the the main character was the only fatality and that no one has claimed responsibility for the bombing

This is pretty good actually

>MC is an edgy teen at college
>he's actually pretty inteligent but also a weirdo and thus gets rejected by all his classmates
>reacts the edgy way to this and his classmates hate him even more, ends getting bullied slightly
>bully gradually intensifies, shit starts to get really serious
>hell in earth for the MC
>get to be friends with a gurl who's getting bullied as hard as him by the same group of ppl
>they get close and obviously end falling in love with each other
>actually happy with this gurl
>but bully doesn't stop
>MC really suffering and can't stand it anymore
>Figures out a nasty plan, kill the nice gurl to get the approvation of the bully popular group
>kills her
>?????
>works out... or not

Have been working on this for a few months now, what do you guts think? it is total shit?

Eh...it's not awful but it would take a seriously compelling depiction of the MC's mental state and an actually resolved ending. The fact that the last two lines of the greentext have no information is not comforting.

Maybe it's just me but I don't understand the angle on bullying in college. Bullying happens in high school and lower because the kids are basically trapped with each other for 40+ hours a week and have super underdeveloped brains. If a kid gets bullied it's tough luck because he's still going to have class with them for the rest of the year and/or see them on the playground. Constant supervision keeps pushing the bully and bullied together. Also the bully doesn't have any other ways to get kicks than to keep being a jerk, etc.

In college there is no reason for this to happen. If person A is a jerk to person B then person B can just leave. Boom, bullying over. Also the people who were bullies can know get their rocks off any way they want and don't have to channel their frustrations out on some nerdy kid. They can just ignore him.

Obviously it still must happen in some rare situations but when I was in college everyone just kind of lives in their own circles. I didn't see roving gangs of jocks giving nerds wedgies.

Thanks for the feedback.

I agree for the most part of your arguments but that's exactly what I'm trying to archive actually, to show how the bullying it's not a thing from middle and highschool only, and how sometimes you see this anomaly happen in college.

Also yes, I'm working on the develop of MC mental illnes, and about the ending thing, I'm actually working on both, haven't decided wich one is best yet. Any suggestions on this?

This sounds literally terrible.

I'm just glad to get a response, friend. Would you mind elaborating on what you dislike about it? How would you improve it?

>Two vapid, competitve corporate attorneys can't stop having horrible violent hate sex while trying to undermine each others careers
>There are no underlaying feelings and things do not end up happy, they're just horrible people who do horrible things to each other

Decent concept, mate. With good prose, not letting it get too sappy, and vivid scenes of the abuse/moments of good fatherhood this could be cool.

I think you should have a secret ending chapter, where the manifesto is finally found, by parents, or whatever, and the connection is made in the news, and the manifesto is so bad and cringy that everyone just laughs, and bonds over it, the bombings stop, everyone across the world holds hands in laughter, marking the day of his death (or discovery) a world holiday, the darkness and meaningless fades and the world begins marching toward a pure, futuristic traditionalism utopia

It's supposed to be a Terry Pratchett/Confederacy of Dunces sort of thing.

Also, no one is named until the last chapter when two convicts are talking. Everyone is referred to by job/status.

what, youve never read the secret ending chapter of finnegan's wake, titled "Its Just A Prank Bro" ?

That'd be a pretty fun read

You know like blooper reels after the credit of a movie? Have like a bunch of shit at the end, thanks, publishing info, etc., blank pages, images. and then a few pages, maybe even written in near white, or glow in the dark ink :^)

Really good, a great essence, hopefully you pull it off convincingly and compellingly. A lot of neat angles, and things going on, very noice.

is this a half decent idea or have i finally lost my mind

it's already written, and is more than likely better than anything you have ever written, you fat disgusting virgin

A bfake biography of a fake writer

I'm so sorry, but yeah, you've finally lost your mind. Why the fuck is it flesh? Make it fantastical and make the tether some magic thing, not head flesh, not nonsense Pynchonian hell-taffy that's going to get tangled everywhere and result in arduous hijinks.

The death of his dog is a stupid complication, too.

i dont really like the idea of making them ethereal or magical, but to each their own i guess
and the death of his dog is his motivation for his journey. he considered it to be the most important thing in his life, but apparently that cant be true if thats not what he was fused to

dig it. Definitely better as novel (and a film, has a no country for old men vibe, there is a lot going on, and a bit of that tv show 'weeds') than play, play would suck all the life out of it, and all the descriptive language you can use etc.

Try to publish, I'll buy it. It's absurdist and a good plot. Take it off here so no one steels it

oh noes!

i'll be next

you again?
holy shit, stop posting on Veeky Forums and write it already ffs

I fucking love time based fantasy stories. That's why I'm very critical with them. Even if its fantasy, I would encourage your to ground that idea a little more.

I haven't quite figured out how to write it, but I will.

Its good. But you are implying the ending, is that it is tethered to the grave plot where his dog is buried?

I mean, you have definitely been watching a lot of anime right

I hate that premise.
In all honesty, it's disturbing in its absurdity.
The first time I heard it was late one night after having recently experienced a horrific existential crisis.
The idea of these two people who are so unaware and uncaring in their pointless contact with a parallel universe, in pursuit of a love which is right in front of them, is somehow sickening to me on a very deep level.

A bishop who knows and believes in the God of the Old Testament would have zero issues with that same God sending people to kill each other or sending people to fight for their holy land.

i only have a vague idea of where its tethered
and fuck, there isnt an anime thats already done something like this is there?

is it based on real events, minus the two last sentences?

Good but the drafting clergymen seems like a faulty concept, since they'd probably just send more commoners and gentry. Do what you want tho op.

>Starts silently questioning his faith after seeing all the bloodshed. He can't believe that the same benevolent god he read about in the bible could give the order to spill the blood of others that also believe in him

Have you read the bible?

I am still working on the ideas and haven't written anything 'hard' yet but here goes. Basically, it's a number of small novellas cemented together, set in a fantasy world. Sorry for formatting, on my phone.

>A pantheon of gods forms, similar to the Greek gods in terms of personality, rivalries, alliances, power and human qualities. There are roughly 800 of them.
>They are not omniscient, omnipotent, etc; some do come rather close however.
>Initially, they create for themselves a paradise to live in. They give themselves physical humanoid forms.
>After a very very long time of doing whatever they want - whether it be getting astronomically drunk, inventing things, quarrelling, or spending years having crazy sex - the gods discover they are incredibly bored.
>This boredom is common between them all so in a very rare occurrence they work together to find a solution.
>The result is a tabletop role-playing game.
>It is immense in size and complexity. The board is a simulated solar system, complete with an earth-sized planet. The rules consist mostly of the laws of physics and chemistry, among other things. The planet is in constant evolution from prehistory to the equivalent of the Middle Ages which is where our stories take place.
>There is no DM - the world is self-sufficient and in the eyes of its populace the real universe. It has its own history, countries, monsters, and nature. All gods have agreed to play by the rules or be kicked for thousands of years.
>Each God can control any character they like. Some choose animals, others take kings, others take soldiers. Everything else in the world is considered to be an NPC in the eyes of the pantheon.
>The book's plot revolves around the rivalries between two God-blocs within the pantheon as they attempt to thwart each other inside the game. More specifically, most of the book is short stories about many different player's characters and their adventures.
>As its really a board game, it comes complete with players being asses and doing stupid shit, while the simulated world tries to cope and comprehend it. Other times good-willed players will help the inhabitants in their problems and wars.

It sounds cheesy when I put it like this but within the world it exists in the same way as Tamriel, Middle Earth etc do. It isn't a clusterfuck of 'le game references!!!'.

A sort of traveling "televangelist" but set in a fantasy world where gods do exist but pay very little attention to this guy.

A serie of stories happening during one warm autumn day in Helsinki
>First: A deeply religious and demented old man taking care of his paralyzed son, the tone is light and comical
>Second: A man is woken up hungover in the betonsuburbs by a talking hedgehog and they discuss their differences and lifechoices with the hedgehog coming on top in the discussion and in the end burying the man under leaves for winter as a man watches the scene from a street
>Third: Two men are are having extremely pseudo discussions, mostly comprised of quotes by wiser men, but they also show creativeness by telling eachother stories in a café, until the other tells a story which has a story inside it which has a story inside it etc. until a story told is their reality, and after realizing that, the cafe goes quiet and they notice that all the people have gone away from the restaurant after which the other man also disappears, leaving the other man alone to walk home
>Fourth: A con man considers what he has seen and done today (he sold fraud insurance to the jolly dementic of the beginning, saw a man buried by a hedgehog, people behaving abnormally) and decides to take a walk
>On his walk through the centrum of the city there is a huge traffic and a lot of people walking around hastily and looking worried, but it is strangely silent.
>A man is selling religious things (candels with Jesus etc.), but nobodies buying so the seller stops the con man for a chat.
>They discuss the happening and religion, showing that the "messenger of god" is a fraud too and the fraud also notices that the con man is not really an insurance man either.
>They take a walk to the Olympic stadium and note many more things happening around them, such as birds dying from flight and dropping down, making the fraud nervous.
>The frauds nervousness spreads to the con man, but he grows furious with the weakness that the fraud is showing and kills him by hitting his head with a metal pipe until it's pulp, then, calmly goes to Kaivopuisto, strips naked and goes to swim in the ocean.
>Fifth: A lonely and emotionless cashier gets off his work, gets drunk, harasses people that have been kind to him and goes to his home fortifying himself in by blocking the windows and doors with planks and furniture.
>Through the night he remembers times when he, in his private social games, won over other people and between puking and short sequences of sleep he grows increasingly cold and clinical about himself, his surroundings, things that are happening and things that have happened, building a certain cold nihilistic feel.
>When he wakes up, it is absolutely dark and he cannot tell what the time is and as he feels his way through the darkness he starts to notice that things aren't the way they used to be in his room. In the end he tears out the planks from the windows but everything is black and cold outside too, he can only see his reflection in the window

A story of an average guy, living his last high school year (not my diary desu, pinky promise)

He is pretty silent and values humility, which gives him an air of honor which others respect
It's mostly because he sees himself as a shepherd and tries to handle other people without being condescending while behind his words he feels he is slightly superior to others
However, his role has created him obstacles. He is too cold and calm to enjoy parties or to establish close relationships, despite attemps at befriending people. When an intelligent girl he has grown fond of is picked right from under his nose by a small, moustached man with strong glasses, he comes to revalue his lifechoices and tries to prove himself that he wasn't wrong about who he was.
In school, the last tests are behind the corner and he must concentrate on them.
On the bus, he sees the most beautiful girl he has ever seen. Later he finds out they are in the same school and seeks her name.
A week before the test he goes to a party, where he finds the girl and goes to chat with her. He is absolutely lost with the girl, he has never felt like this. He hangs out with her and she shows signs of interest.
He rushes through the tests, not really caring about them.
Spring comes along and soon they will have the ending ceremonies. He finds the girl running off with many boys, pretending she doesn't even know him. He tries to take solace in his books, but with the sun out, he feels drawn to the outside world. The test results come and he has barely passed them.
In the spring ceremony, after which they are relieved high school, there are titles given out (Best teacher, hottest girl etc.) and when there are titles of titles of "Cleverest person" and "The schools nicest person" he secretly hopes he would be recognized, but he is served a humiliation as the girl he was fond picks the first and her boyfriend the latter.
During the evening parties there is shot chess and he ends up playing against the beautiful girls new partner, a popular and loud person whom the narrator has made many negative remarks throughout the book. He has considered himself an experienced player, but is completely outplayed in front of all the people in the school, who take it as a sort of victory for "their guy"
Filled with impotent rage over his revealed mediocrity, he drunkenly starts raving how shit everyone in their high school was and how he's glad he wont see any of them. Everybody is very condescending towards him "Don't take it so seriously", until he is thrown out by the only friend he got from the whole school. He passes out on the sidewalk in the cool spring rain.
The book ends with bitter remarks over how there is no dignified in humility and silence, as it is better to be arrogant and loud, hated and loved than to live as already dead. The narrator concludes that he has trapped himself in his character, which he continues to play with no determination in the worklife.

Sounds interesting

Bruh

>he secretly hopes he would be recognized
I'm not gonna say I haven't felt this but seriously
