For about 8 years I've had the idea of a sort of a sort of sci-fi plot, set in the near future, where new technology makes it possible to enter a state of lucid dreaming easily and at will, meaning it's possible to be anything and do anything whenever you want. Main character would be a depressed middle-aged man who uses the technology to perform increasingly depraved acts on the people who have wronged him in the 'real' world. Plot would basically explore the moral consequences of becoming a rapist, a torturer, and a murderer, but without having any 'real' victims. Ending that I was mooting was that he'd eventually become completely unable to function in the real world, so he'd commit suicide while using the technology, ensuring that he could live a blissful (but completely fake) eternity.

Never really took off, and I'm pretty sure that it's a bit more of a common sci-fi trope then I'd realised originally (at first I thought it was a brilliant new idea for a book), but I've got a bit of spare time coming up to write, so maybe I'll try to re-hash the idea and see what I come out with.

actually, I always wanted to do graphic novel whit this story

> year is 2420 (or some shit)
> earth is inhabited whit some aliens and they brought their culture and politics whit them
> humanity doesn't mind because they help us out and care for our planet
> Aliens that came are all different races from different planets but are all similar to humans in most ways (common ancestor?)
> whit them is the smartest race that are robots created by long gone ancient aliens
> robo aliens do the thinking, they are the politicians, they are always right and there is no use to go against them, they function like a hivemind
> meanwhile there is a human who knows how to enter other peoples and aliens dreams (robots dont dream) and speaks whit them
> he is a big influencer, but nobody knows who he is
> people and aliens jump to other peoples dreams and have group dreams using the dreamer. they plan to take down robo aliens
> robo aliens are trying to find the dreamer and turn him in their advantage or kill him since they can't control all the social gatherings that are happening in dreams...

a NEET details his frustration with being unable to obtain a job and his hatred of society and the book is mostly descriptions of him staring at the ceiling, wall, or his computer screen while he slowly becomes a vegetable while occasionally shitposting on his favorite image boards and jerking off to porn until he commits suicide in the end

I have an idea I’ve been mulling over and collecting research on for about a month now. It would probably end up being too long for a short story, maybe my longest piece so far, I think I could do it in 50-100 pages so I guess it would be a novella. It’s too good to share though, I know someone will steal it.

>they bury the bodies and cover it up.
Why do they cover it up? The police chief tells the protag to and he just does what he’s told?

Did one room school houses still exist in the flint hills in 1983? It’s not split up by county and they bus the kids in?

[Anonymous No.11750678]

>>11750622
Yes they did, actually. I'm from the area and they didn't consolidate the school district here until the early nineties.

And he covers it up because he's new and the chief is intimidating. That's not too say it doesn't haunt him.

Pic related: a magick system I'm working on.

The sun is a giant [n]cameral brain/computing environment
There are people in the future using retrocausality to effect the past
There are probably angels and shit

all of them are fucking with us and our consciousness is travelling along unknown and unknowable vectors via machines, the sun, biology, metempsychosis, the and-ing operations of quantum many worlds entangled in one another, and some sixth thing that I thought of but instantly forgot just now.

In the future, almost all fiction will be reified into virtual worlds, making most fictional characters and creatures real, and when combined with retrocausality, otherkin and plural systems can be seen as Landian intrusion of the future into the past via future sentient virtual animals/animal people and collective consciousnesses and etc.

A little girl leaves her sad little town and walks deep into the forest, in search of an ancient witch with magic eyeballs, which will finally allow her to see beauty in the world. She intends to have the witch give her her eyes, and is willing to pay any price for them. On the way there she runs across all sorts of creatures and people in the woods, as lost and confused as her.
Intended for children, but edgy enough so that it can be enjoyed by everyone. I think horror aimed at kids is the most horrifying.

I can't remember where I heard about it, but I remember being told about a short story wherein society discovers that potatoes are in fact sentient, with human-level intelligence, and live in constant fear of the humans who are ignorant to their suffering. Kinda ridiculous, but that's probably the point. I've never been able to track it down, so maybe I came up with it in a dream or something.

I don't have much else planed. I was thinking of calling the girl "Sandriada", but she's called Sandría for short; you know, having a name based on reality that is also odd. I can't really decide on a setting; I think I could go for contemporary fantasy in making her town seem fairly modern, but with a forest full of magic and strange things. I don't want to delve too much in that because then the setting loses some of its mysticism.
I want to lay down some recurring along the story; so far I have thought of the mention of the color grey and eyes playing a part almost everywhere she goes.
Initially I've thought of having her going on her journey alone, but perhaps the story would benefit from a secondary protagonist. What do you think?
