Hey guys! I made this just to see what awesome ideas y'all have, synthesized in a single sentence lol. It doesn't have to be your latest RP idea and if you have that many/can, you can describe past RPs you've created or brainstormed for. That being said, this is a thread for appreciation of ideas, not as a place to deliberately rip ideas off - if you are inspired by the concept of someone else, please credit or let the person know :>
