Have a story idea that you think would be cool, and you think people would like?

Do you wanna ramble about all the stuff you would include in it?

Are you to lazy to ever actually write it? (So am I!)

This is the lovely place for you! (And dear god, I hope someone hasn't already made something like this, and I'm accidentally copying off of them.)

Ok, sure, I made a Universe where every Country and State has a cult and a war breaks out among them all. The main cult of the story was told 10 years before it happens to plan out an attack and get more followers. The gods that each cult follows are a Cryptid from their state or country. Then is powers as well called Plague Conjuring and the powers are unique to their cult. For example, The main cult follows a Cryptid called The Rougarou and the power is called Moonlight Eruption. This allows them to shape-shifting and increases the sense of smell. The Flaw is that they will start to grow hair and they will get sharper teeth. The main character is called Sebastian Woods and he is the only one that can talk to the Rougarou.

But the funny part is that each cult believes that no other god is real but their god. BUT the gods are making a bet to see who can get the most followers. so that means that all gods of the cults are real but they only talk to their cult

Sorry about bad grammarar

The last part is fucking hilarious

God 1: "How's your day going?"
God 2: "I got 576,254,270 followers, how's yours?"
God 1: "Medamnit now I gotta tell someone else another prophecy"

@Pato-Is-Salty-Over_Cartoon
Lol ya
God 1: "Can you please get your followers out of my area"
God 2: "What, you scared that I have more followers than you"

Story Idea (maybe webcomic) Tired Collage student accidentally acquires over-enthusiastic-about-everything demon roomate… somehow
What miniadventures would they go on? (If you could even call them adventures)

definitely going to a diner. The demon exclaiming they want every food they serve, but when the waitress comes, the college student just orders breakfast, even though its night, and orders them sprite, when the demon taste's it, they spit it out, it coming out of their mouth and nose, which makes the college student laughs hysterically for like 5 minutes, and the demon is embarrassed and is like 'its not funny' but finally when the food comes, they both start eating, the demon exclaiming how good the food is, and how rebellious they feel to eat breakfast food; at night. And the irony of that comment makes the college student laugh again, and they continue laughing because god dammit laughing feels good for them, and then the scene ends

it would make a fantastic roleplay honestly, but thank you, I love making lil scenarios like these

I have a few ideas that I currently don't know what to do with.

• A story revolving around a family of hitmen/contract killers
• A husband and father investigates the sudden, tragic deaths of his sister and daughter, all while trying to cope with grief and family life.
• A man becomes a widower under unexpected mysterious circumstances. Some time later he meets and falls for a woman, whom his children love. Both have mysterious pasts, and one of them plots the death of the other. (Black Widow)
• You've lived a great life, loved by many friends and family. One day all that you knew changes when someone approaches you, calling you a different name. Turns out that your parents actually kidnapped you years ago, and raised you as their own.

A few idea's I have:

• a fairy, specifically a cave fairy, see's the world for the first time, befriending a teenage boy in the nearest village, and he teaches her all about village life, all while hiding her from his family.
• A student living as a junior at the local high school in the city, has to learn to cope, when the english teacher she leaned on for everything, she ate lunch in his class, told all the gossip to, and was her only friend in her big high school, commits suicide.
• A woman who's a witch, has her life together, ready for anything college throws her way, except the chaotic bisexual woman, who likes to party, and turns out to be her roomate.

Ideas are so hard to come by for me. Sometimes I'll get like super jazzed up about an idea, and then like an hour later I'll be like "Nvm, I actually don't like this idea anymore." Right now here are my ideas that I'm kind of trying to figure out:

• An autistic teen (or teens) have to teach an alien from dying planet how to survive and blend in on Earth. This one I think could be a lot of fun, but I'm kinda having troubles with getting a real conflict out of it.
• A grocery store, but they only hire people with superpowers. All I really have is the concept, but I think there could be a good story in there somewhere. I was thinking of having an MC who wants to join a superhero team, but gets rejected and ends up working at this store instead. Other than that, I got nothing but it's inspired by all the customers at my work who seem to think I can read minds. If only.
• Also low key want to write a prequel about one of my characters (Matthew) from one of my main series. I love him, and I think his backstory is super neat and would be a lot of fun to write, but I kinda worry that it would just be rehashing information about him that we already know, and the reader wouldn't really learn anything new about him. All his backstory kind of comes out all at once in the main series so I'm kinda hesitant because I don't want it to feel like "super long version of book 2, ch 24." I think Gerard would be a fun one to write a prequel for as well, but it's kind of the same issue.

• An autistic teen (or teens) have to teach an alien from dying planet how to survive and blend in on Earth. This one I think could be a lot of fun, but I'm kinda having troubles with getting a real conflict out of it.

A possible conflict that I think would work is as follows…. The dying planet is dying due to an invasion from another alien species. The natives look to Earth for help and send an emissary, who is discovered by your teen (or group of teens). Together they have to come up with a plan to stop the invaders, who have now set their sights on Earth.

Another one is that the government knows about the alien, and are trying to capture it. The alien and your teen(s) obviously have to thwart agents and possibly even bounty hunters.

Ooh those could both work. Thanks :D

You're welcome! 🙂

fshshshs mine are super basic but oh well-

i- i've had this story in mind for a while now so uh- here we go-

basically, i had this dream and i wanted to make a story out of it. it was a dream where i was trapped in space with this girl named Rochelle, and apparently, we were astronauts who were supposed to go to an unexplored planet called Marasmus, but our ship collided with an asteroid; we thankfully escaped before the asteroid fully collided. so we're just floating in space now, and we started making our way to other planets via us propelling ourselves (because fun fact: we weren't trained properly for asteroid collisions- at least, that's what Rochelle told me while we were floating towards Earth's moon). so yeah. we got up to some shenanigans as we were heading to the moon. but eventually… things took a nasty turn. Rochelle began hacking and coughing violently. i, of course, had no clue wtf was happening so i started freaking out. suddenly, there was this sudden flash of red in my line of vision, but once i grew able to see again, i noticed that she was… gone. like, dead gone. then i woke up in tears.

so yeah. i really wanna do a story based off of this, or heck, maybe even a fanfic? idk, but i wanted to turn this story idea into a collab (even tho i have nobody to collab with as of now, i think?? idk if the people i know would wanna collab on something tragic like this)

thats beautiful.

I would love to do a story or something with Alix. Not sure what to do with her.

she seems like she would definitely fall in love with a client she was supposed to assassinate.

boy do i have a story i wanna talk about bc i've put so much thought into this but I haven't gone back and forth about it with anybody which is sad :(
so the main character is this guy, ben. he's a psychologist and he's just been fired from his job at some place, and he's pretty angry about it. he's on the phone with his friend/ex ophelia and she's a security guard at this institution place and thinks she can get him a new job there. he accepts her offer.
now, for context there is magic in this universe. not a lot of people have it, and most of them who do have a really mundane superpower, like being able to know how many calories are in something by looking at is or like, every plant they grow can never die. those who have the bigger/more powerful abilities are contained so that they can't cause problems out in society.
ben arrives at the institution and is sort of just being given a tour around. the guy who runs the place is kind of a dick and after ben is acquainted with his surroundings, they guy in charge gives him some stupid task to do, but ben refuses, saying he's qualified for something more important than this. guy in charge takes it as a challenge, sends him in to the holding cell of one of their most dangerous patients. patient is wearing restraints that cover his hands. his name is river. over time we learn why river is here. his power is that whenhe touches somebody, he can make them do whatever he says. he learned what it was at a young age and came up with a moral code to not use it for anything big, but when his sister is out of a job and desperately needs money, he decides he’s going to help her by robbing a bank. to put it briefly, it goes wrong and there are casualties. so he was put in here. ben is very interested in helping him because he thinks there’s real potential in river to become more well adjusted or sumn idk. also ben has this thing where he chews toothpicks all the time.
so ben goes on his lunch break after talking with river. unbeknownst to him, ben has left the toothpick in rivers room and river uses it to escape from his restraints and runs away from the institution. ben feels very guilty and offers to go on the search team for him. well ben ends up being the one who finds river, and at the last moment, ben decides that the way he’s going to help river is by helping him escape. ben is like okay i’m on your side, run to my car. river is mostly ??? but goes along with it and then they are basically on the run. and that’s the story premise. also they fall in love. but there’s not a really happy ending :)h

_{Its gonna be great}

I've been working on this story for a long time now….

In the story world people can be born with superpowers, but most people get theirs from accidents and government testing. However most of the population is unaware of this since it just started happening, and those born with their powers don't get them until they hit a certain age. The main character, Jason is one of those born with powers, which don't activate until he's 10. He can control fire, making it with his mind. Unfortunately they're tied to his emotions. Anger and frustration being two of the strongest emotions known makes this dangerous.

Thanks to his powers he accidentally causes some minor fires at school and home. His skin is naturally hot to the touch as well…. After some tragic events we find that he has a juvenile record. In world people are required to have an education, whether they have a record or not. Jason is made to go to school. An aunt that he didn't know he had paid his bail.

While at school a fire breaks out, causing the deaths and injuries of several people. Jason is unfortunately framed for the tragic fire and sets out to clear his name. While doing so he also fiddles around with his abilities, training himself to get control of them.
