Many of my characters seem prone to mad cap schemes
I was just wondering what was the craziest scheme you used in a story. (not the most horrible just the craziest.)
 
One of my characters murdered me at the end of a story... Now THAT really ended the story.

Dear Dest,
DurtGurl's entire ovary is infested with ... unusual schemes. I'm not sure "crazy" is the proper term, though.

Ps. My own "Frieda the Cat" may be considered madcap, I suppose. I've often thought it could be adapted for the stage as a romantic comedy.

Well, not me, but someone else . . .

With only three stories posted so far, I can hardly lay claim to any 'mad cap schemes' - unless it's considered 'mad cap' for two people to meet the love of their life by accident in a New York theatre and then have a whirlwind weekend of sex, sex and more sex :).

So in this regard, I must defer to another author here, Margo_x_x, and her story Another World.

If I explain how mad cap the story is, then I've sort of wrecked it. Let me just say that two men accidentally travel through time to the distant future and stumble upon an Earth that is now totally populated by women. but the women do get pregnant . . . sometimes.

I've died twice in some of my stories. That count?

A pair of psycically linked twins determined to lose their virginity at exactly the same time -- it didn't work, and 150,000 words later it's unfinished and will remain so forever. :( (It's just too horrible and huge to try to fix.)
 
Excellent thread. Glad you started it, destinie21.

Madcap schemes are a brilliant ploy for turning operational descriptions of biological functions into interesting stories. It’s hard to find enough ways to describe licking your way down someone’s belly without an ulterior motive lurking in the background.

Since my brain was the last one installed on a Friday before a long weekend, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that I’m the one traveling north on an east-west highway. I don’t just think “Madcap” is a great idea, it’s what I was trying to spell when I came up with the name Margo. (I’m doing much better since I bought, “Hooked on Phonics.”)

To have my name pop up in this discussion is almost poetic. It also explains why I’m getting feedback on A World of Trouble after all this time. I guess I owe one of those, “Say anything you want about me, just spell my alias right,” type of thanks to OldnotDead.

I’m apprehensive about the story as it stands, however. It started as an all dialog experiment that got quickly out of hand. I went back to it several months ago and am rewriting it as a full-fledged novel. So don’t start screaming “plagiarism” if you spot it on a smut shelf some day.

In the meantime, never turn your back on a goofy idea. Or try to forget a sexual humiliation. Save them and cherish them. They’ll make you a great writer some day.
 
Not posted here.

But I once wrote a short story of a guy who planned to steer Mercury into the sun with the aid of strawberry jam and a rubber duck. Among other things.

I was just wondering if the twins were male or female... ;)

IMHO, this child has all the qualifications needed to become a first-rate AH poster. RF

As for "mad cap" my stories and characters are pretty much like me, staid and conventional. Of course, there was that after-midnight, blow-job scene on the steps leading down to the hospital's morgue. But nobody would be interested in reading about something like that, so I never posted the story.

My characters are more likely to be madcap in a verbal
way than actually doing things. But in a backstory,
my hero and his friend tried to turn their t shirts into
guncotton. (They survived, which is an important
consideration WRT backstories.)
 
Re: mad cap schemes

A story I never posted was about the seduction of a woman who believed in fortune tellers by a man who tricked her into letting him "read" her body. It was written in all dialogue. Pretty crazy. Something really nice came from it, however. A terrific person, an author, agreed to advise me on it and we became friends.

Awwww my two favorite things...morgues and blow jobs, and it's not posted! I've always wanted to work in forensics but it was not to be so I spend my time living in the world of crime through books. My mind tends to run to either romantic or morbid...no inbetween so this story would have appealed to me RF.

My last story was madness and suicide and that's not too madcap. I started a story about a fake trial a woman had for her cheating husband but it was ridiculous and I dumped it. :rolleyes:
 
Arthur, you madcap awful man, where have you been!?

Pierce, I read it and enjoyed it, you madcap nice man.

Perdita (madcap only in reality) ;)

Female, gorgeous, and NOT top heavy. ;)

Just vague enough to be an interesting visual. Surprised they won't do as they're told though. Fancy twins having minds of their own...
 
Madcap?

Probably the most "outside" scheme I've ever written is about mental telepathy... the ability to touch and manipulate from across the room... Its actually one of my most popular stories... does that count?
 
My craziest scheme...

Hiya,

My craziest story scheme involved a pyromaniac rabbit stopping Armageddon by lighting a fart on fire at Satan :devil:. He singed his balls, but he saved the universe. Yes, it's as ridiculous as it sounds, but hey, I was sixteen when I wrote it and it really amused me at the time.

Cheers,
Vas
