Second of all, can we bring these genres of movie back? I feel like it's what the world needs.

(and by just started, i mean i wrote 200 words yesterday so like... great timing, paula!)
Raspberry_cordelia Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 1 hour ago, crowsb4bros said: modern mythology retellings Wait, I actually have a question for this: do you have a preference in mythologies? Like, should we stick to the conventional Greek and Roman, or can I go worldwide?
crowsb4bros Posted July 16, 2020 Author Posted July 16, 2020 No preference! I’m fairly well-versed in global mythology (and did a challenge on it a few years back), but if I don’t know it I’ll research it!
tangents Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 i am IN!!!! ethical pirate odesta is never leaving my brain now it's stuck in there just one question — what exactly would you define as "ethical pirate"? just to be safe!
MegGonagall Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Ooooh the rival teachers being shipped by their students is soooo tempting. Uuugh, but I’m supposed to be working on 2 other WIPs! *wails* Dammit, I’m going to try! I’m a strong maybe for now.
Aphoride Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Omg the fair folk is so interesting also modern mythology retellings - though, quick question: what counts as modern? does it have to be, like, 21st century, or would the 70s/80s be modern enough? Either way imma be a maybe
dirigibleplums Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 i really really wanna do this because i absolutely ADORE half of those tropes. i also love how oddly specific #4 is lmao. i'm not sure which one i'm gonna go for, but i'm in!

Whatever you like! I was thinking of Inej my pirate queen rescuing stolen young girls from nefarious men. 2 hours ago, Aphoride said: quick question: what counts as modern? does it have to be, like, 21st century, or would the 70s/80s be modern enough? That’s modern enough!
Ineke Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 I am a maybe bc fuck yes tropes but also fuck my muse tho but i will say that i will not mind a lot of stories for this challenge appearing in the queue. at all. i might fight aurors for it.

MegGonagall Posted July 17, 2020 Posted July 17, 2020 Are we allowed to use tropes that others are also using? Because modern mythology retellings is looking mighty appealing as well.
magemadi Posted July 17, 2020 Posted July 17, 2020 oh my god I AM IN!!! I will try TWO -- fae/fairy folk and space station life because both are just calling my name
