Multiple Settings Long Term partner search! (come help me stave off my continual existential dread!)

[FragmentedPhosphor]

Heyo! I'm Frag-- I've been roleplaying for, uh, a while (at least 7+ years, though I'm too lazy to actually check) and as you might expect from the title, I'm looking for a few partners to write with!
Please Note: My schedule fluctuates wildly from day to day, so before we get too in depth with anything, be aware that I may be unable to post on any sort of regular schedule, though I will try to get a response out at least once a week. I'll try to keep all other major details sorted into the tabs below, but that was important to be put right at the top. While I would prefer you read through the whole thing for obvious reasons, I've put information that is generally useful when it comes to personal preference or my own writing habits in bold.

  Okay! So, as stated above, I'm Frag. Pronouns are she/her and I'm in the PST timezone (though my sleep schedule is screwed enough that I'm usually on until the early AMs). I'm 21, currently 'officially' unemployed (thanks COVID) and running like four different gig apps to keep the lights on, so the times that I'm on are... sporadic, at best. I might be able to fire off three to five replies in a day, or I might go a week and only be able to write one. Regardless of the frequency, I consider myself to be a literate RPer even at the worst of times; the smallest my replies ever get are four paragraphs, and I average anywhere from six to ten paragraphs depending on what's going on in the RP itself. I prefer long-term roleplays, and OOC chat with my partner is a must, especially when it comes to plotting out what's going to happen next. (I don't want the RP to be some soulless transaction-- if we're gonna write together, we should at least be able to have a friendly chat!) While I prefer to keep the RP itself in the PMs on this website, our OOC chat can happen either on a separate PM or on Discord. While romance is not a requirement for any plot, I am fully open to it, and can happily play any gender pairing requested. Diversity of all types is welcome and encouraged, and as is the standard on this site I will not be okay with any sort of real-life bigotry or homophobia. I am also ghost-friendly; if you're not feeling the story, you can peace out at any time. (You can also pop back in literally months later, and chances are I'll be happy to pick it back up with you! I know how life can get.)
  
  As fair warning, if our OOC chat is on Discord there's a 100% chance I'll be sending you memes I find funny and pictures of my cat (who has a cameo as my profile picture!).

  Okay, so I don't have many rules when it comes to potential RP partners, but there are a few I want to stick to.
  
  
  • 18+, please. No offense to anyone below 18, it just feels weird to write with minors in a way I can't fully quantify.
  • As stated in the About Me section, no bigotry or other hatefulness. I have a zero tolerance policy for that, which I will enforce with gleeful joy.
  • No one liners, please. If you can only write a paragraph, you can only write a paragraph, but at least get a couple sentences out so I can give a decent response myself.
  • Please be willing to collaborate with the plot. I enjoy telling a story as much as the next person. Not so much so when it's just me doing it.
  
  That's about it! Patience is always appreciated as well, though if it's been three or four days and I haven't written a response feel free to poke me. Chances are I'm either distracted or just plain forgot!
  
• 
  I'm comfortable writing most anything, as long as it's not Fandom or Slice of Life. Anything I'm craving right now will be bolded.
  
  
  • General High Fantasy (think Forgotten Realms D&D)
  • Medieval Fantasy
  • Western Fantasy
  • Urban Fantasy
  • Futuristic Fantasy (Magic and space travel. Is its very nature conflicting? Yes. Do I care? Absolutely not.)
  • Sci-fi
  • Western Sci-fi (admittedly I don't have many ideas for this genre, but the aesthetic has got me hooked)
  • Cyberpunk/ Dystopian Cyberpunk
  • Apocalyptic
  • Modern Dystopian
  • Modern
  
  A lot of these can be combined for one big frankenstein's monster of a setting, so if you have any ideas, feel free to throw them my way!! I get sold on an idea so easily it's a joke.

  Alright, so admittedly this one's a little sparse. If you don't see what you want here, message me with the idea!

  These will be divided by genre, for easier reading. All plots are nothing more than general outlines; if you like some of it but not all, let me know! We can always edit as needed to suit both our story needs. If I have a preferred role, it will be in bold.
  
  Science Fiction:
  
  And It Was All Going So Well: Muse A has been in the bounty hunter business for far too long, and if it weren't for the exorbitant prices of living anywhere remotely civilized, they'd consider retiring any day now. That problem, however, had a solution with a name attached; Muse B, an outlaw with a quite frankly ridiculous bounty on their head-- on the one stipulation that they are to be brought back alive, and mostly undamaged-- had been spotted in the same sector as Muse A, and as far as they were aware they were the only one close enough to catch Muse B in time. In a move that surprises A as much as B, A does actually manage to capture B, and they're almost back to civilization when a freak accident causes them to crash land on a planet that hasn't seen a colony in over a hundred years, due to the vicious wildlife, unpredictable storms, and generally hostile landscape. Muses A and B would likely have to work together to survive-- well, if B hadn't already run off, that is, somehow escaping in the chaos of the initial crash.
  
  Great Find, Terrible Luck: Muse A's done a lot of things in their life, not all of them-- or really, not many of them-- being things they were particularly proud of. Still, this is a new low for them; after a job gone terribly, terribly wrong, they're left with (hopefully) just enough fuel to get back to a colonized planet, very little in the way of food, and an abysmal amount of credits to their name. It certainly seems like a hopeless situation, and Muse A is just about ready to drop all pretense of pride and beg their way back into money once they dock when their ship picks up something odd-- a distress signal, hardly more than a few thousand yards out of their route. Despite their better judgement and in hopes of finding more supplies, they divert and dock with the seemingly-dead ship. What they find instead is an android, a job offer, and the beginnings of a conspiracy that reaches far deeper than either party expected.
  
  I Will Not Ask And Neither Should You: Android ownership, these days, is a lot like owning a phone; they're useful, multi-purpose tools that people will look at you weird for not having, with the added bonus of being adaptable to the daily needs and wants of their owner. Regardless, Muse A has never really been interested in owning one, and even though their friends have teased them countless times about being left behind in the new technological age it's never swayed Muse A's opinion much. Unfortunately, their insistence comes to an end when their friends gift them Muse B-- an older model, second-hand android whose last owner passed away recently. Supposedly, the android's memory banks have been wiped, and as an older model they'd be perfect to help ease Muse A into the modern age, but it doesn't take long before Muse A begins to wonder if maybe things aren't all as they seem with Muse B.
  
  Fantasy:
  
  A Simple Job: Muse A is an assassin. Not one of the best, but good enough that when their next target is a nobody from a small village who, as far as they can tell, never even left their hometown, they got suspicious and decide against their better judgement to investigate Muse B before they kill them. This turns out to be a terrible idea, although not for the reason Muse A expects. (This can fit into almost any fantasy setting so desired, and is flexible enough to be about... well, most anything, really.)
  
  The Woods, Dark and Dangerous: Muse A is on a quest. They are one of many who have taken this particular quest, although they are the first in a while to truly attempt to reach the heart of the forest. It is said at the heart of this forest lies impossible treasure-- everything from piles of gold high as the trees to the rarest of magical herbs that could cure any ailment to the gods of nature themselves. Regardless of their reason, Muse A is determined to reach the heart, and neither the ever present danger nor the reasoning of Muse B, a local guide that A hired to take them as far as they could, would stop them.
  
  Retirement Never Lasts: Muse A is a retired hitman-- they have been for the past five years, settling down on the outskirts of a desert town in the middle of nowhere after a particularly ludicrous job gave them enough money to never worry about anything else for the rest of their natural life. So far, they have been enjoying their retirement immensely, having become a staple figure in their community and settling nicely into a small town life. All that is quite nicely disrupted when Muse B, an underfed and injured teen with wild hair and even wilder stories of a monster in the sands and magic that had brought them halfway across the world, shows up at Muse A's doorstep. Soon enough they are reluctantly involved in a plot much bigger than any job they had ever handled, in way over their head and no choice but to push forwards, if only to protect Muse B. (Note: This one is a platonic-only plot.)
  
  
  

So, that's all for now. If you're interested, go ahead and shoot me a PM with your preferred plot, and a little bit about yourself! (Unless you're unable to send PMs, in which case feel free to comment here and I can send you one so we can get this started.)
