Superhero Plots
"These can be one-shots, short-term or long-term RPs and all up for negotiation, provided the changes don’t hit one of my dealbreakers.
Canon Characters I'm Especially Craving: Pretty much anyone in this photo album, whether as their outright canon self or as an Expy (taking a canon character's appearance and personality and adapting them for another plot/story/setting). Plot, setting, circumstances and all that can be discussed.
1. I'd love to find someone willing to play a superpowered Lois Lane (image 1, image 2). Maybe she could less potent levels of Superman's core abilities (super strength/endurance/stamina/speed, flight) but also having more personally-fitting skills for her career as a reporter (eidetic/photographic memory so she maintains perfect recall at a mere glance, detecting truth via body heat signatures, omnilinguism to easily communicate around the world, etc.)?
I love modern-day superheroics with a bit of Silver Age for flavor. (In terms of mood, think Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Justice League Unlimited and The Venture Brothers, not Man of Steel or the Nolanverse!Dark Knight trilogy.) Hero/hero, villain/villain and hero/villain relationships are all nice, and I list a few potential plots below. (Of course, I'm more than open to other ideas so long as they fit the general mood.)
Plot List
Untitled Craving 1: I'd love to RP something involving a tall, muscular fighter/superheroine in a relationship with a shorter, sweeter young man--the Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy trope--that are complete opposites in personality but able to be sweet and fluffy with one another after wild crazy sex. (You know, the guy being the proverbial Mr. Miracle to her Big Barda.) Whether the girl's more dominant in the bedroom or the guy is--if they aren't equal--is up in the air, but I could see plenty of scenes rotating between lust, taunts/teasing, shameless fluff and tsundere moments where the two bond.
Untitled Craving 2: A largely harmonious and working relationship between a superhero(ine) and supervillain(ness) in which each is aware of the other's secret identity, yet still have a largely harmonious (if very odd) and working relationship. (Bonus points if they are each other's personal arch-rivals, or if they were introduced to each other by their own personal nemeses.)
The Kidnapping: When one dates a superhero(ine), getting some quality time together can be challenging between day jobs, professional obligations and whatever super-villain comes knocking at the door. More than one romantic dinner, date or planned night of room-quaking passion has been put on hold or blocked due to the Superhero(ine) Call of Duty. It gets to the point that you see your beau on TV or in print more than you see her in person. Moreover, the workload is getting so large that (s)he's become short-tempered and even a bit sloppy. Considering his/her responsibilities, being sloppy can have serious or even tragic consequences at the wrong time. So for all of these reasons and more, taking a page from the super-villain manual, you decide to go old-school and attempt a good ol' fashioned 'kidnapping'...for her own good, of course.
Role Reversal: A supervillain and goody-goody heroine couple ‘swapping roles’ for the evening, the latter trying [and failing] to be the icy villain while the former mouths off on the proper way to strike terror into his heart. (I know this one needs work, and I'm especially open for suggestions here.)
A Glass of Chianti: These two, once friends, became professional enemies, each on the opposite side of the hero/villain coin. But one night, after one particularly heated battle, one invites the other to a momentary detente, an evening dinner. For one evening, both agree to leave their animosity--or really, the animosity of their villain/hero identities--at the door in a mutual ground, to rekindle that old spark. This leads to the spark becoming a blaze of passion, and can lead to the villain doing a Heel-Face Turn, or the hero(ine) falling and having a Face-Heel Turn.
Single Superhero Seeks Good Archenemy: Not every villain is a proper nemesis for every hero. All of the great rivalries have enemies that are on equal fields somehow, or are complete opposites (Batman vs. Joker, Lex Luthor vs. Superman, Thor vs. Loki, etc.). But just like some people go on multiple blind dates to find that special someone, so too do capes and villains alike seek out services to find that perfect archenemy, someone who pushes them to their full potential while not so surpassing them that it's impossible to maintain. Sometimes, one just outgrows the other, needing a new challenge and a more compatible opponent. Be you a good-guy, a bad guy, a vigilante or in supporting role, there are various establishments meant to test compatibility in terms of philosophies, backstories, powers/abilities and even work schedules.
Tribulations of Heroism and Villainy: Like all couples, this one has their occasional problems: He complains that her minions keep raiding their fridge and that she can't get mad he's late for a date due to shutting down a missile she had launched, and she's deeply annoyed that some mudslide in Bolivia has gotten in the way of their dinner--again--and promising to put a professional hit out on that new superheroine who keeps scoping out his behind. Even as they play on opposite ends of the hero/villain coin, they manage to have a strong relationship out of the costumes, leading to some very interesting conversations, as well as trying to deal with mook unions, would-be rivals and snooping reporters desperate to unmask one or both of them.
