TMA RPG fic: Wait For Me

[schneefink]

I've recently become more interested in trying out different RPGs, so I decided to support Wait For Me on Kickstarter, a 22-day journaling game about time travel and connection where you travel through your own timeline. That sounded too introspective for my taste, but then I got the idea of playing it as fanfic and that sounded like a lot of fun. I decided on Gerard Keay, and I convinced DD to play as Lan Wangji. We got the first prompt today!

Wait For Me, by Gerard Keay
Fandom: The Magnus Archives
Chapters: 1/22
Additional tags: Repeated time travel, canon-divergence (probably)
Summary: Instead of finally dying a true death, Gerard Keay is thrown through time.

I have no idea where this is going, but I look forward to finding out! Playing parallel with DD makes it even more fun, since it already looks like her fic (Wait For Me by Lan Zhan) and mine will be very different. I intend to post daily, fingers crossed I can keep it up.
(If the game sounds interesting you can still join now, or buy it later.)

Oh, how cool! Dang, I wish I'd backed it when I had a chance - do you know if they're going to make the PDF of prompts available for purchase after August?

Apparently you can still join now! And they will also sell the pdf later.

Thank you!! I've shot off an email, and will keep an eye out for the PDF. :)

I hope you enjoy it :D

There is also a notebook component where you write things in your journal and add things, like newspaper clippings as proof of the current date (the latter is a bit more difficult to do for fic but maybe I can improvise.)

That sounds super fun, honestly, and also honestly, I'm very good at breaking rules when it suits me. ;)

An important skill!
I've decided my character's journal is more of a sketch book than a diary, I look forward to doing a lot of doodling.
