Stagnation; Because I'm Using The Tavern to Get An Idea

(This is a RL RP. I'm trying to find a way to get myself RPing in some form, or maybe produce an idea by typing out my thought process...)

"And some argue that when women play on this particular role..."

That's really all I heard before I started to type this. With my interest in the lecture having vanished, my attention returns towards an idea for an RP that I can establish, even though I'm in the middle of a class. However, the class is almost over; therefore I need to find something to write about before the next class begins or I'm going to find myself wanting to bludgeon myself during yet another lecture.

The problem I now face as I type is that I have actually run out of ideas. Unfortunately, different factors have stagnated a lot of RPing, and now it has left some people hanging, especially myself. With RPs in the process that are on hold due to a lack of posting by others, I find myself trying to do another self RP to get something into action, to bring excitement to the world.

But I can't. Everything is too stable or requires others to proceed. My desperation grows as I wonder if I'm losing my touch or if something has caused me to shut down on ideas. My fear grows all the more as I wonder if my touch is gone for good, or if I can no longer roleplay with the same ease anymore.

The truth is, maybe everything I wanted to do has been done. But, has it?

A girl walks by me to possibly go to the nearby restroom and I quietly look back at the map. The Pacium Union is unfortunately pretty quiet right now. Nothing dramatic has appeared that is grabbing my attention. The RPs on Kolhar and the expansion have been placed on hold due to a lack of posting, leaving me aggravated and looking for something to write. However, I don't feel there's much to start up on in the Pacium Union without causing everything to go to shit.

I cringe at the thought of unleashing the SS Project upon the IC world. I know that we're not ready to unleash that and it will definitely be a very twisted time to do so. Over in the OOC, nothing on the GSI or the new Skein treaty comes to light, leaving me frustrated.

I decide to turn towards Almaniania but no. My ideas have halted there as Almaniania's neighbors have gone silent. Even my expansion fails to capture my interest as it seems more like a chore at the moment. Fien's vanishing act has left the AU in a loop and unfortunately, I have no idea what to do with a nation that is influential enough to kick up a fuss when someone pierces into lands in the area but not enough to push influence and power projection beyond Andros and the surrounding area.

My attention turns towards my newest state, Kazemura. I already planned for the 80 Days to end with Satashi's success, but I don't know what I can do independent of the other nearby nations. Once again, stagnation has taken hold there and I can't find something interesting for Kazemura to do. I could try industrialization, but I also want to potentially see a civil war or uprising of sorts. In the same breadth, I wonder if doing so will attract any attention or lead to something interesting.

However, it almost seems like a chore to do that as well. The idea doesn't attract attention and it leaves me almost bashing my head in irritation at my own shifting desires.

As i look over the Chat for ideas, I find myself bored with the discussion ongoing. I flick back up to this box and continue typing, praying that something will happen. Slowly, I tune back into the teacher and listen to the Mexican government and how it used to be ruled by "caudillos" before the Revolution.

My arms cross for a moment as I feel the cold finally getting to me. Eventually, I come back to the keyboard and tap out words that I wonder if I will ever post in public. However, most of me says to do so, hoping that something posted will get me into some sort of mood.

I remember Fantasia and internally groan at how slow Pokemon is going. My irritation rises but suddenly, I can feel an idea forming.

Godus.

I want to play that game badly. They actually recaptured my interest with their new app, making it very interesting to enjoy. However, the concept of playing a God is something I haven't considered as a potential RP before.

Still, I don't want to get rid of- wait. An idea comes to me now. I can still do something RP wise in the Modern Tech area. Perhaps a study of a nation's history. I can choose any of my main three and not have to wait on anyone to do it.

Still, it's an idea that isn't fully set in stone. I decide to set it to the side as I prepare it for release. Maybe that will keep me presently occupied.

Something needs to happen before I lose interest entirely now. For now, I decide that in my next class I will begin my Godus RP and try to really delve deep into it. Of course, if I can not find-

"So Diaz sees the writing on the wall, he flees to France. Madero takes control of the Presidency-"

GOD DAMN IT! Screw it, I'll find a way. Not right now, but hopefully half an hour from now someone will either give me a great idea or I can get inspiration through Godus.

Until then, I must fight a few more minutes of boredom and pray that I don't get caught if I do use Facebook to contact members of my club's board.
