    Aright, so I'm bored and want a Roleplay.

    Characters I need: John and Sherlock

    Before or after the fall. I'm not really picky.

    I may want to note: I'd be playing my OC, Hannah Green.


    I'd love some help developing the plot.

    So far I have this: John and Hannah both like each other, but they won't admit it. They have a strange little relationship. I'd like that somewhere in the Roleplay they are just talking and it slips out of one of them and they go out a bit.
    I'm not entirely sure.

    I'm sure the three characters will be working on a case. I'd love to develop one to go through with someone.

    Also, Hannah and Sherlock have a very unique relationship. She deals with him nicely; she may help him with experiments or do other things that John won't. She'll tease him, and she's really not afraid to get right up into his face and tell him off.
    It's like a brother-sister relationship. They don't like each other, but they DO.

    So, ready to develop a plot? I'm sure this RP will be fun.

    I don't know. Probably start with a small case, nothing too complex, so we can get in the swing of things. Maybe a theft? Then free time to build relationships. After that... Hmm... I am trying to think if something not too cliché. Anyway, a larger case. That work to start?

    I don't really gave a specific idea, we could do the red headed league as a the plot. It might work. Beside modern safes and things like that. If you aren't too fond of that you can think of something, I'm lenient.

    The Sherlock Holmes short story. I am sure you can find a brief summary online. The plot itself is fairly simple. We might just have to modernize it a little.

    So, to catch up a bit: On the 17+ hour extremely agonizingly long flight I had plenty of time to read the red-headed league. It was really quite interesting- I think that one would be nice for the roleplay. If you two don't mind, I can go make the post now. I suppose I'll just call it the Red-Headed League.

    Alright?
    Sorry about being inactive the past week.
