Joe Zhivago Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 The night before his debut on “Turmoil”, a restless Joe Zhivago pulls up into an empty parking lot. The rain is hammering down, but he likes the sound it makes as it crashes on the roof of his van. He climbs out, slings his gear bag over his shoulder and walks quickly towards an old single-storey building. A dimly lit sign over the entrance reads “24 Hour Gym”. Joe opens the door and goes inside. The place is deserted, but he can hear music coming from the office behind the desk. He decides not to bother whoever's back there and heads straight for the punching bags in the far corner of room. Before beginning, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a crumpled picture of Seth Morrison’s face and fixes it to one of the bags. Ugly bastard, aren't ye Morrison's face scowls menacingly at him, as if he could read Joe's thoughts. He scowls back at him You don't frighten me, ye big arsehole. And so Joe begins his training, knowing that tomorrow he faces his first of many challenges in OCW... 1 "In my own special way, I am rooting for you, but for the most part I want to see you fail…" Mr. Sensation, The Mini Desk - Multi-Tasking Edition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All written content needs to follow the Morrison Method. The Morrison Method works as follows: Actions, and Names are in Bold: Actions Example: Mr.Sensation throws a cup against the wall. Name Example: Mr.Sensation: Well well well, if it isn't Paul Pugh, and the sissy express. Full Role Play Example: As the last match ends, the camera pans to the back. We find the CEO of OCW Mr. Sensation at his desk yelling into a phone. Just then Bobby Minio walks in. Bobby Minio: Bossman!!! Mr.Sensation: Not now Bob, can't you see I'm yelling! Bobby Minio: Well you stink! Bobby Minio quickly exits as he slams the door, Mr.Sensation is enraged! Mr.Sensation: CHINLESS JERK WEASEL! Mr.Sensation throws his phone at the door shattering it! The Camera Fades to the next segment! If you need any help working with the Morrison method, make a post in the Locker Room forum, or shoot Sensation or myself (Minio) a PM and we will help you get a better grasp of the system.

Joe Zhivago Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 I do understand the Morrison method and I've used it for everything else I've written. The handbook doesn't give examples of inner monologue, but I would never submit an RP for a show like this. I will change it though.
