Epiphany #1

Jan 09, 2008 12:08

Since my Muses' Reawakening, I've been having epiphanies with some of them. Some pretty interesting stuff bubbled up into the thinking area of my brain and stayed there until I resolved it. For example, yesterday, I had one during lunch with Cassie, my Romance Muse. There are only so many ways how the lead male and the lead female hook up, however the story is written.
  1. Childhood friends. He knew her, she knew him, lingering feelings may exist for a while, but will only be shown as the story progress.
  2. Stalker. He stalks her/she stalks him, knowledge and feelings usually one-sided, and may or may not be returned as the story progress.
  3. Complete Strangers. Brought together by the storyline.
...
And all of those are already be done and No.3 is even overdone, in movies, books, games...No.1 and 2 are (methinks) done more in games and anime than other media. Maybe I can make a story with three couples, each with one of the ways.

I'll ponder over that for a while...

Cheers,
SQ
