—we’re not meant to save the world,                    we’re meant to leave it

PLOT ONE: INTERSTELLAR

After a nuclear war left much of the earth uninhabitable, muse a and muse b were carefully selected as co-captains on a colonization mission. With a crew of twelve and over 900 human embryos in tow, the Orion set out into space.

They were all pioneers, looking for a place to survive.

No amount of training could’ve prepared for what they would find in search of their new home. 

Barren, diseased planets with no room for mankind. After several failed attempts and a six year stretch in stasis, the crew are desperate for a place to call home. 

Time will only tell. Will humans find their place, or are they done existing?

POTENTIAL PLOT ARCS:

- Muse A and Muse B both absolutely loath each other. They each think that they know what is best for their crew, often butting heads. What the other crew members don’t see is that, late at night, they find comfort in each other.

- After being awoken from stasis, Muse A and B find that the Orion is malfunctioning. As a result, a majority of the crew is lost, as well as many of the human embryos. Together, they must survive this colonization mission on their own.

- One night, Muse A or Muse B are made aware of a transmission from a nearby planet. Much closer than their final destination, they decide to head towards it. As they land on the planet, the remains of a civilization can be found. They soon come face to face with a hostile, almost invincible species. 

- After exploring a seemingly perfect planet for colonization, Muse A and/or Muse B realize that they’ve inhaled something toxic. As they weaken over the course of a few hours, they must find an antidote or die.

OTHER NOTES:

I’ve wanted to do a plot like this for a long time. I already have some plots similar to this, but I can’t get enough. This genre is so fun and the possibilities are endless. As you can tell, I’ve been inspired by films like Alien, Interstellar, and Life. 

I didn’t give too much background on either muse because I want them to fit our writing style best. I am open to doing this plot with several people. 

I would love to play a female (preferably f x f), but I also have muse for a male character, as well. I’m open to m/f, m/m, or f/f.

Just as a general warning, I’m sure there will be mature content in this. Not necessarily NSFW (although I am open to writing smut), but violence, cursing, potential horror, and other things like that. 

I’m pretty open minded about FCs. We can discuss that together! 

EXTRAS:

Since I’m extra as hell, I made a playlist for this. Enjoy it here.

Now that I have a rough template of the order of events etc. now i’m looking to plan out the number and order of each storyboard scene. This is only a rough draft to get an idea of how the story will play out more than the actual camera shots and defined shots.

two people talking as one brushes their teeth. “Are you ready yet?”

light switch being flipped off by one as the other is sitting in bed.

shot from above of the two lying in bed trying to sleep. “goodnight babe”

shot of the door open a crack and graphics written on the screen to represent noises coming from the direction of the front door (onomatopoeia). 

close up of one of their faces as they hear the noises.

the two sitting up alert due to the noises. “Is... Is someone breaking in?!”

the two still sitting alert “I don’t know... go check!” “you go check!”

the two slowly getting up from the bed “Oh god we’re being robbed”

One at the door switching on the lights while the other is kneeling on the edge of the bed

the one by the door slowly opening it while the other waits in anticipation

the noises stop and both the characters freeze.

sudden pitter pattering as something scrambles across the floor.

the one by the door flipping the hall switch.

close up shot of a rat mid way across the floor thats looking up at them.

instantly followed by a shot of the rat from behind looking up at the two characters (over the rats shoulder... if you could call it that?)

shock on the characters faces at the sight of the rat - front facing shot

pan shot of the rat running into a hole in the skirting board - with a comic book style cut out in the place it previously was.

behind shot of the girls as they take a deep sigh of relief that they’re not being robbed.

Future Plots:

- Muse A uses Muse B as bait for one of his plots, and when she finds out and gets angry about it, he gets pissed too and drops something like “What-you don’t believe I’d actually put you in real danger, do you?!”

- Some asshole threatens/harms Muse B in some way, and when Muse A finds out, he kills a man for the first time.

- In the spirit of that, when Muse A returns one night all bruised and bloody (like really bad, enough that he can’t move without sobbing), Muse B takes it upon herself to kick ass. *She takes his gun with her as she storms out.
