    plot bunny: An idea for a story (usually used to refer to fanfic) that gnaws at the brain until written. (urban dictionary definition)

    Plot bunnies can be elaborate or just a few words.

    Here you can post plot bunnies that other writers can use in the future to help them get inspiration. Or as a Mibbian, to put ideas you had out there that you feel you may not be able to write to the level you want it to be at.

    Do not post your plot bunnies which you are already going to use in a story/poem. These must be ideas you don't mind sharing or inspiring authors with, if you want to be the only one with a story featuring the plot bunny do not post it here. If you want your plot bunny to be written, it'd be best to do a contest, as some bunnies may get ignored, while others are very inspirational.

    I have stories in my head, which I've tried writing out but, just can't get it to come across as I want it to. Here are a few of my plot bunnies:

    + a story featuring a beautiful (singer/actress/dancer/whatever) who has one mechanical leg. So, the leg is a futuristic prosthetic, kind of robotic and cool in a way.

    + there is a secret government agency who are kind of like superheros (intelligent, strong, hidden in the shadows type thing) and one for one of the members his/her work collides with their personal life

    + a story featuring a talking inanimate objects

    + a person who was in an accident where they can hear but not speak

    + story revolving around a person who enters college at around ages 13-15.

    + someone breaks a body part during sex Naughty (I've tried to write a one-shot and a poem featuring this, didn't work out so well)

    + bed sheets, laundry room, lavender

    Currently Moon Valley is sitting there rotting. It is basically about a little girl who discovers magic and has the courage to change the world. That is about all I got on it. If someone wants to take on the story, be my guest. I doubt I will ever finish it.

    A one shot (or story) that is yaoi (male +male). Renji x Byakua. From the popular anime Bleach. I was thinking Alternate Universe where they both had mundane jobs and some how ended up meeting in a bar. They knew nothing of the other one and well... you get the idea.

    dru begins to break.:
    + a story where one of the characters is an alien
    ^ LOL one of my stories is like that xD

    There were a bunch of cool dares from NaNo that could be used as plot bunnies.

    - most of the story features the main character going in search of something that doesn't exist/is unheard of (ie: ...a four legged chicken)

    - setting of story is specific, and never changes (ie: takes place in a garden shed from beginning to end)

    - main character aspires to be a hermit and plans his lifestyle in great detail throughout the story

    - story where being born with certain attributes was a death sentence

    - story where all other characters think the main character is blind, when he/she, in truth, is not

    I've always wanted to write a story like this.

    I read one the other day where being born a third child was a death sentence. It was so fucking good. In Love

    I love this thread. I was thinking about starting one like this but never got around to it.

    I have a whole list of plot bunnies in my writing notebook but here are a few that I wanted to write but will probably never get around to.

    -Ryden, Ryan is deaf
    -Frerard, Gerard is a social worker and Frank is a troubled teen
    -A realistic teacher/ student story
    -A story about a Halloween town
    -A story about a homeless pregnant teen
    -A zombie horror story
    -A romantic story about two actors starring in a movie together then falling in love starring Robbert Pattinson though I don't like Robert so much in real life

    - two characters in a relationship. one has a father who is in the mob/drug cartel/mafia/etc.

    - a story where the main character has a gender identity different than that of a cis-gendered person (someone born in the "correct" body) but the emphasis of the story is not on their gender identity.

    Polyamory.

    I want to write a story about a polyamorous relationship so badly, specifically one about a four-person relationship. It's been bugging me forever. I will. Eventually.

    ^XD Only you tehe

    Let's see.... A story with a tragic hero on a doomed quest to save something/someone. (Think Shakespeare tragedy, where the hero starts off in a high place (ie King) and ends up dead.)

    - A story, original, about the harvesting of souls and maybe epic battle of who gets the most souls. Something like the fight between heaven and hell.

    - A horror fic about zombies. Something gruesome, demented, and twisted.

    - A story told from a dog's (cat's) point of view.

    I'd read it. File

    I've been meaning to write a story that compares Hell from Dante's Inferno/Divine Comedy to high school.

    It's difficult to make a high school fic. sound mature enough. We high schoolers aren't as mature as we like to think we are.
