Do you have plans for other sandboxes?

Not at this time - we're sort of weak on plot/premises/etc. as a pair.

in "general" or Hogwarts specific? Post-war Hogwarts isn't all that ideal for Belling by a 11 year old.

While I understand why it is happening, the lack of plot/premises is somehow ironic since Emma and Jenny are... very archetypical protagonists*? The gang as a whole is very fitting, with the exception that they would have a griffindor. Not that I am complaining.

Are there other non-alicorn RPs with Emma and Jenny that would be interesting to read?

edit: * I don't mean that as a bad thing.

In general unfortunately, we had plot problems with the demon Cam sandbox as well.

Emma takes exception to this description :D being a Protagonist sounds dangerous and uncomfortable to her.

There aren't yet. Though I do have a couple non RP scenes with just them written, people are welcome to read them if they ask, but same no-plot issue :(

I feeeeeel your pain.

Emma is the safe-and-easy life type, right? I am sad that she is a world where Alicorn has any input. Poor Emma.

Did you post those scenes somewhere? Also, have you considered creating a thread in Creations? Also-Also do you have a tumblr, I thought I was following you, but I was mistaken.

Safe-and-easy is a good word for it. She is very low on personal ambition, somewhat as a reaction to her parents who have it on her behalf in spades, plus she's very passive and a bit of a doormat at times (see: her screenname). "I'm going to go Save the World and Have Grand Adventures and seek out Ultimate Cosmic Power" is really not her speed XD I think I may have mentioned she was created to be the main POV but the sidekick role, as an experiment? It's an easy slot for her, she tends to have useful skills and it's mostly pretty trivial to talk her into things.

They are not currently posted anywhere. I can email them on request or stick them on one of my Heroku sandboxes or whatever people would like, I don't much care. (I also have to find them, they're old and some might be on a hard drive at home, but I have at least one or two with me I think.)

Also, a thread in creations for what? If you meant "to ask for ideas for their world's plot": I'm tempted, but for solo-writing I generally prefer to come up with my own plots. I don't mind collaborating on RPs, that's kind of the point, but I enjoy the cozy mine! feeling from creative writing. Even if it means I fail at plotline for seven years XD

Also-also nope, no Tumblr. Also no Twitter. I am very dull!

Sorry for taking forever to answer this. I read your scenes and they are interesting, I wish I had your grasp on characterization.

I got vaguely curious about alli, specially given she barely shows up the scenes but it is a main "Piece" in Lummos.

WHile Emma prefers safety, have you considered the Alicorn-scientifically-aproved-method of trying to destroy your characters hopes and dreams?

Thanks :) Anything in particular you'd like to know about Alli? I have been known to describe her as "an apathetic and less violent type of Zevi".

I have indeed considered that! I'm just not very good at it, since I'm rather fond of them and also that sort of requires me to have a plot that does so xD But generally not opposed.
