MONICA AND NOA NEED TO PLOT

[TUESDAY DAVENPORT]

So once we get around to it, plot stuff is going HURRRRR

[CHARLEY HARPER]

OKAY OKAY OKAY HERE WE GO.

So I'm just going to copy and paste this first part from dani's thread tracker just in case you haven't read it yet:

Dani: OKAY. since addison/charity have this dress shopping thread, i figured some of the peter pan characters could be at this dance. just throwin' that out there. THEN i got to thinking about how neat it would be if it turned into a Murder Mystery/Clue game sort of deal and i have no idea how it would work haha. just that it would be fun. xD
Noa: that would be fun! if you could figure that out dani that would be awesome there should be some sort of evil mastermind behind it all one of the villain characters
Dani: noa, is an actual character being murdered? was it going to be allie?
Noa: yeah it can be allie, and i think sable offered up a character. but we can make it someone random if that makes more sense.
Dani: okay haha whichever~ i do like the idea of it being a villain character behind it all.
Noa: WAIT IDEA IDEA IDEA what if ugly stepsister #2 saw zack and charley talking or she was talking to zack before charley came in and then he left her to talk to charley or something like that went crazy bitch and decided to get back and accidentally killed allie THINKING IT WAS CHARLEY....because they're both blonde. I DON'T KNOW IT COULD WORK THEORETICALLY
Dani: OHMYGOD. xDD
Noa: or maybe SHE DIDN'T MEAN TO KILL ALLIE SHE JUST WANTED TO HURT HER OR SOMETHING BUT THEN ANOTHER EVIL VILLIAN SEES IT AND BLACKMAILS HER INTO MAKING IT A GAME FOR SOME REASON IT COULD BE CAPTAIN HOOK TO GET THE PETER PAN PEEPS INVOLVED BUT SOMEHOW ZACK AND CHARLEY HAVE TO SOLVE IT B/C THAT'S WHAT MONICA WANTED MAYBE CAPTAIN HOOK WANTED TO MAKE IT A GAME B/C HE'S TRYING TO LURE PETER INTO SOMETHING

So that's that. However, we do not currently have an ugly stepsister so I don't know if that's going to work. Erika is making an ugly stepmother now though, so that could probably work if she got the app done in time. Hedgie also made a fairy godmother, (you can read that app here) so he can be involved somewhat too. We just started a Charley/Zeke thread, but I don't know where that's going to go but hopefully they'll be semi-friends by the end of it. I can ask Hedgie/Erika how/if they want their characters to be involved later. But um, other than that I really don't have anything. I also didn't know if you wanted Zack and Charley to have a thread before the dance or just start it off at the dance...either would be fine with me. I assume we can leave most of the Peter Pan (lolz that I just typed Harry Potter there at first...don't know where that came from) to the Peter Pan people to work in. But anywayssss, let me know what you think/any other ideas you may have!

[DANI]

OKAY SO I'M KIND OF SUPER DUPER EXCITED FOR THIS. YEAH?

Uhm. I decided to toss in Peter Pan characters because Charity and Addison have a dress shopping thread. Plus, this entire murder mystery solving plot just seems like so much fun. I couldn't not get involved.

I can see other characters participating; that's fine. I saw some talking in the cbox {I regretfully did not copy it down} a few days ago. It had been suggested that it be some sort of academic awards thing. I figured out how Addison would be able to go. She'd definitely have an award of some sort for English class, I'm guessing. She'd make Matthew go with her so she wouldn't have to hang around with a bunch of boring smart people she didn't know. Here's hoping he'd go. xD We need Scout to get back haha.

I have no idea how others would make it if this did end up being an academic award thing or something. Maybe they just sneak in. Or maybe it won't even end up like that. Though Zack and Charley are attending different schools, so that does need to be figured out. I'll try to think of something. :)

If at all possible, I think we should wait awhile until starting this thread/event. If we want more people to join/if people want to join, I think a sign-up sheet is recommended. It'd be nice to see who is going, who with (if applicable), the award their winning (if the academic award plot is what we go with), and any other important things.

ALSO! Relating back to the murder mystery bit of it all, I still think it would be incredibly fun if it was like one big game of Clue. (Addison totally calls dibs on Mrs. Peacock since she'll be wearing blue). To involve Ezekiel, you could have him tagging along with Zack and Charley, just being a nag and throwing out subtle hints that the two of them should totally be a couple. It could throw off the investigation haha. Since Addison and Ezekiel have a thread, I can see her talking to him throughout the night. Maybe this bothers Matthew, so he's being obnoxious which could also mess things up?

As for who is being murdered, I'm pretty sure it was decided that Allie Jennings would be the victim? If not, it could always be some random chick. Either way. Now that we have the Evil Stepmother/will have her soon, she could be behind it all rather than Captain Hook. OR! OR OR OR! Captain Hook and the Evil Stepmother could work together. Oooooooo, villain team-up! I don't know who is killing Allie, though. Are Zack and Charley going to solve this or is it just kind of going to become less important as the night goes on?

Okay. I think those are all of my ideas! If I come up with anything else, I'll most likely edit the post. Maybe I'll delete this and then repost it. I don't know. /THEEND! :)

[DANI]

Noa: MAYBE EVIL STEPMOTHER somehow like taunts charley that she wouldn't dare show up at that dance thing and charley's dad says no as well for some reason so she just gets pissed off and zeke is the final push for her to go for some reason so she goes and that way nobody is expecting her but i don't know why zack would be there esp. b/c he goes to barrie now
Dani: hrmm.... are we going for spring fling? 'cause spring flings at my school have like games and booths set up and other stuff so maybe he could be working one of those for a class or something? like, required?
Noa: ZEKE CAN SNEAK HER OUT WITH ONE OF HIS MAGIC ILLUSION TRICKS ahhh maybe! or maybe it could be like enchanted where it's just some city wide charity ball thing
Dani: i dunno. i feel like a bunch of random NPC's would show up and we'd have to address that and find a reason for the charity
Noa: yeahhh you're right but like i don't see captain hook sneaking into a high school dance unnoticed... pedo alert
Dani: also i dont really see high schoolers attending a city wide charity ball xD ... LOL. he could offer to chaperone just 'cause he sees it as a chance to find more teenagers to sell drugs to?
Noa: hmmm that could work! IT'S GOING TO WORK OUT SOMEHOW

Noa: yeah, that's true. and we can still work on our own characters! okay, so we can do a high school spring fling and the non high school people can just figure it out
Dani: definitely! i think addison would quite love solving a murder xD it'd make a great story to tell haha. right. did you see my suggestion about booths/games, though? there could be barrie classes that require students attend and work that or something.
Noa: yeahhh there should just be a marketing class or something that makes the students make their own booth or something
Dani: MARKETING! SI! THAT IS PERFECT.
Noa: and like whoever got the most students to go to their booth got the best grade or something YAYYY OKAY WE GOT THIS
Dani: i know we're trying to avoid other characters, but i think it would be hilarious if zack stayed at his booth so he'd get a good grade and just tried to communicate via walky-talky all night haha
Noa: NOA AND DANI: THE SUPERHEROES OF PLOTTING THINGS THAT SHOULDN'T MAKE SENSE HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHA omg that's hilarious but he'd have to leave at some point xD
Noa: and i guess we'd let becket/hedgie figure out the exact scheme because i don't really know what it is besides allie dying
Noa: WAIT WAIT WAIT HOLD UP A SEC WHY ARE PEOPLE WEARING BALLGOWNS AT A SPRING FLING THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE
Dani: ... DAMN IITT. i mean... there could be a dance portion?
Noa: GAHHHH but i mean nobody wore ballgowns even to prom at my school maybe it could be a themed spring fling?
Dani: so we need to think of something formal. orr a themed spring fling. xD
Noa: it could be a cotillion omg charley would rather die nvm but like i don't know what the theme would be that would work for everyone like we can't have the theme be 'ballgowns' plus addison isn't even wearing a ballgown but i feel like charley wouldn't wear one unless she was reallyyy forced
Dani: well they are still dressed formal. also, it could be another awesome ezekiel illusion/trick? xD
Noa: getting someone in a ballgown without them noticing? that would be a damn good trick xD maybe zeke could just convince her somehow or like she doesn't have anything to wear that's formal so zeke gets her that or something
Noa: i feel like it's going to get reallyyyy complicated/messy if we have like 15 characters trying to solve a murder
Dani: oh! no no. i dont think every character attending the event will solve the murder. they'll just be there all distracting and ruining the crime scene/evidence xD
Noa: yeahhh i don't think so either hahahahahahahah so only cinderella/peter pan characters are involved in some way yet to be decided OKAY WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS HERE

Noa: OKAY OKAY SO WE NOW HAVE: *the where and when of it
Dani: ... we do? xD i mean, so far, i think our best bet is still to go with the spring fling.
Noa: well it's at the high school during spring yeahh i like that idea i think we should double check with everyone but that sounds like the best for me oh shoot we still need to figure out the theme
Dani: O: WHAT IF IT WERE A MURDER MYSTERY THEME. LIKE.
Noa: OH MY GOD IRONY
Dani: A CLUE/MURDER MYSTERY SO THEY ARE STILL KIND OF DRESSED UP FANCY. AND WHILE EVERYBODY IS SOLVING A FAKE PRETEND MURDER ZACK AND CHARLEY ARE SOLVING A REAL ONE
Noa: IT COULD BE LIKE A MURDER MYSTERY THAT TAKES PLACE AT A BALL OMG THAT IS CLASSIC AND HAS TO BE DONE
Dani: OK OK. SO. IS IT STILL SPRING FLING? OR A BALL?
Noa: IT COULD BE A SPRING FLING MURDER MYSTERY BALL
Dani: maybe in an effort to keep kids from being wallflowers (which so happens always) the school could add a spring fling sort of feel to it, still having booths/games. so, it's a dance/ball. with a spring fling feel to it? so they don't /have/ to dance, they can just play games instead.
Noa: i would say that it could be for a college drama class where they all have to pretend to be characters in the murder mystery giving clues but i don't see zack taking that class/going along with that
Dani: i like that idea to! O: that way, if people want their college characters to be in the event, that is a possibility for them.
Noa: yeahhh there could just be like themed games and such yeah that's true! OH AND THEY HAVE TO PLAY SOME GAMES TO GET CLUES LIKE IF YOU WIN A GAME YOU GET A CLUE
Noa: BUT THAT DOESN'T GO WITH THE MARKETING IDEA AT ALL BECAUSE THEN THE COLLEGE KIDS WOULD JUST MAKE AN EASY GAME SO EVERYONE GETS A CLUE AND WANTS TO GO
Dani: well there could be various booths from different college classes and they're all working together for the event so the .. oh xD
Noa: it should be like an engineering class where they actually have to make the game xD oooh i like the various booths from different classes!
Dani: like, drama could play the characters. engineering could make the games. math/english/science could have different games and clues pertaining to that subject.
Noa: oooh that's smart!
Dani: so zack could still be in a class, it just wouldn’t be marketing. and maybe, so the games aren't easy, the teachers check everything beforehand and supervise
Noa: ooh that's good b/c then monica could choose yeahh that's good the winners should get some sort of prize or something
Dani: i think it'd be hilarious if zack and charley end up solving the fake murder even though they didn't get any clues. they'd be pissed 'cause they meant to solve a real murder xD
Noa: YESSSS HAHAHAHA

Dani: is there anything else we need to address? xD
Noa: ummm i dunno...how are the peter pan characters involved?
Dani: i figured it would mostly be if hook is somehow behind the murder and because i want addison to be a part of this. xD
Noa: but why would hook randomly murder someone?
Dani: well, not so much murder as blackmailing. wasn't that an idea?
Noa: oh yeahhh i forgot about that

[hedgiedeath]

YOUR METHODS OF BRAINSTORMING ARE WONDERFULLY CHAOTIC. C: /jsjs

Anyways, ZEKE WILL TOTES SNEAK CHARLEY OUT. /swears she saw that somewhere
He would want to go along with the investigation because that would sound interesting to him and he would feel he'd have to solve the murder because it's his civil duty and blahblahblah.

OH MY NEW CHARACTER BLAKE could make an appearance though he doesn't really have anything to do with cinderella or peter pan? He could be that mysterious guy that no one knows but was around when the murder happened because, well, he's the grim reaper. They could track him down because they think he did it, when really it's a waste of time because he didn't? JUst an idea. C:
