A Solitary Round Robin
Feb. 26th, 2006 08:31 pmOkay, let's play a game.
I have two charecters - a Mr. Joel Robinson and a Dr. Clayton Forrester - that are currently sitting in my head. They're *apparently* from a post-apycoloptic universe, but they could just never leave Deep 13. The two of them are somewhat friendly towards each other, in a teasing sort of fashion, but they aren't sleeping with one another. Dr. E is alive in their universe, but they've never meet Frank or Mike, and I think Joel hasn't created any of the 'bots, though he might have built Cambot.
The problem is, that while they're decent houseguests, I don't think they're my charecters. At all.
So, anyone missing a Joel and a Dr. F? Because, uh, while they're nice and all, my brain can only hold so many alternate universes at a time. A great deal of it is being eaten by the Portal/MST3K maddness (It has A PLOT now, but it's plot looks a wee bit too much like
liz_marcs's Living History. But since I'm using The Invisible Lady (who I am not calling Jessica Alba or Susan Storm) and dealing with The Final One and all that prophesey things, there's not much I can do about "people from the future come to the present" cliche.
So, between the Portal/MST3K monstrosty and the other writting projects, I have little room for charecters who I'm not convinced they're mine. Do they sound familar to anyone? At all?

Hence the massive search for their Writer.
