@ Properly Improper
Yes ma'am! I'll add you to the list when I get home from work.

@ daniel desario
Thanks girly! :)

ALL SPOTS ARE OFFICIALLY FILLED! Huge thanks to everyone involved in this; can't wait to get the ball rolling!

@ daniel desario
Yay!

Okay, now that everything's updated, here's what I was thinking/has been discussed for the plot thus far:

Originally, I wanted the story to take after the film This is the End. If you haven't seen it, what basically happens is James Franco is throwing a housewarming party when a biblical apocalypse takes place. He, along with Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, Craig Robinson, Danny McBride and Jay Baruchel, have to figure out how to survive while dealing with one another. The relationships between the characters is especially important: Jay and Seth were longtime friends who kind of fell out of touch and now see each other once or twice a year; James is secretly-but-not-so-secretly obsessed with Seth; Jonah and Jay hate each other; Danny McBride is cynical and crass; and Craig is just kind of there and gets along with everyone.

As I was discussing with Morgie, I'm thinking that instead of a housewarming party, the boys can be hosting a film release party or an album release party at one of their flats. All of our characters stay behind once everyone else leaves (for now, let's just say they leave because it's getting late), so we have to decide what kind of "disaster" is going on that puts them on lockdown. Then we can develop the plot further and decide what kind of "roles" our characters are going to be taking on. They don't have to be shaped after anyone in This is the End specifically, but I think it'll work better if everyone has a hidden agenda, so to speak, that the reader isn't entirely aware of.

Okay, now that that's taken care of, what do you guys think? Anything you'd like to throw in or see happen? Any ideas, suggestions, criticisms, etc.?

@ daniel desario
I like the sound of this! I'm gonna go watch This is the End just so I have a better idea of what you're talking about(:

@ daniel desario
I really like the idea! I would have never thought of that. As of right now I can't think of anything, other than the huge question that wants to force itself out of me... Uhm. So I guess I should go out and ask? Is slash going to be a part of this, or no? Some people just don't like it (the whole Larry drama), and I don't mind either way.

Yoooo I also kinda changed my username. I do that a lot. I was dj malik.

@ tom riddle.
Good question. Personally, I don't write slash, so if we decide to include it, I won't be writing it. But if anyone else wants to write it, I don't mind. I guess we can vote on it, so to speak, just to make sure no one would mind or get offended by the outcome. So...

1. Should we/shouldn't we include slash?
2. If we don't, should we scratch the "just the boys" rule and include OCs?
3. If we do, who're the pairings?

@ daniel desario
@ tom riddle.

1. I personally am not a fan of writing slash. I don't have a problem with it, I just don't write it.
2. I'm good with either just writing as the boys or adding OCs. Whatever the major vote is on this one I'm okay with. :)

@ daniel desario
HEY GIRL, I AM SO SORRY FOR BEING SO BEHIND. UGH I FEEL SO HORRIBLLLLEEEEEEE.
Anyways, I'm ready to get started and hopefully everyone is still on board!!!

Hey all - if anyone is still interested in this idea, I'm going to start over with a new thread. Send me a PM so I can send you the new one once I set it up!
