Puberty is the sickest joke God plays on us. So you're just noticing members of the sex: "Girls girls, ooo". Naturally you want to look your best, and God says "No! You will look the worst you've ever looked in your life!"
Pretty sure you can't reserve an entire series here for "whenever I get back", but good luck with that game/series.ChannelDelibird wrote:I'm working on a Star Wars-themed game for when I eventually get back to modding, so consider that reserved (covers all 6 episodes).

A little bit Planet Terror and a little bit Resident Evil. I've thought through a few roles, but haven't worked out any surprises or "kink" yet.rough idea wrote: Dynaplex: End of the World Zombie Mafia
A plague of zombies has overtaken the world. Huddled in civilised locations are pockets of humanity. In some, the best of people are brought to the fore. In others...the worst.
Nestled just of the I-70 corridor in Maryland is the Dynaplex compound. Specializing in something secret, unknown to the general public, and shielded even from most government interference is a 6 story X,XXX sq ft office building. It has its own maintenance facility and motor pool, wind and solar power generation, radio tower and, most importantly given the ongoing apocalypse, food stores.
When news of the zombie uprising came, most employees left the facility. Those that stayed behind activated the "Terrorist Attack Protocol" (TAP), a series of security measures that included raising steel barriers out of the ground and over the first two floors exterior doors and windows. Forty-five "essential" personnel remained at the facility- monitoring outbreak reports across the globe, listening in on doomed military action radio reports, cursing the TAP lockdown on cell phone transmissions inside the building. A few "I love you"s were snuck out via email.
During the next six weeks after the world's collapse, a half dozen Dynaplex employees, previously infected with and incubating whatver it is that makes man into a flesh-eating zombie, turned and took down another twenty employees. Five more committed suicide.
The Dynaplex survivor community had occupied offices on the sixth floor of the main building, rearranging cubicles to make room for a common area. They often gathered in the floor's largest break room for meals, playing board and card games found stashed in departed worker's offices. Life developed a rhtyhm and even as the zombie hoards destroyed the world, few zombies were seen in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains at the Dynaplex compound.
However, no one wanted to brave the world beyond the complex's outer fence. They'd seen, before broadcasting stopped almost six weeks earlier, the carnage on roadways and in population centers worldwide.
The sounds of a struggle and two gunshots woke the survivors seven weeks after Z-Day. The remaining 12 Dynaplex survivors walked into one of the smaller, infrequently used, breakrooms on the sixth floor, where the struggle had occured. The two most repsected, formerly executive level, survivors (Guy Touchstone and Darren Lasker) were sprawled over each other, their blood pooling on the floor beneath them, both of them clutching pistols.
During the clean-up and body disposal, one of the remaining 12 picked up a blood covered paper on Guy Touchstone's letterhead. It had two columns labeled "With Me" and "Against Me". It was unclear how many names were in each column- the blood had permanently obscured the lists. The second page, stapled to the first, was similarly obscured except for parts of a gruesome to-do list: "Kill those aga././.-" and "Use fresh bod././.bait if atta././."
It was clear that some of the survivors had made an alliance. People began to recall Guy was asking "loyalty" questions in the preceding week. Would they be willing to die for a cause? Would they kill if their life depended on it? One survivor shared that Guy mentioned people who used to work with him planning to leave the facility.
For the good of the last 12, it's time to root out those who would use your flesh as bait.
