for the WIP game, Cell Block Tango!! 👀

Thanks for the ask! And I suppose that one's got the most intriguing title, doesn't it? Lol.

Cell Block Tango is a dark comedy about four roommates, all of whom are criminals of some kind (a drug dealer, an embezzler, a hacker/blackmailer, and a serial killer). The focus is on Madeleine, the baby-faced, wholesome-looking, cheerful serial killer. She kills so many people that the Grim Reaper himself comes and confronts her. When that doesn't work, he teams up with the detective on her case to try and prove that she's the killer (no one but Madeleine, her roommates, and the detective can see the grim reaper, which is why he doesn't count as evidence).

What ensues is a game of cat-and-mouse (and Madeleine rubbing the fact that they can't prove her connection to the crimes in their faces), as well as her and her roommates getting into one illegal shenanigan after another.

I haven't really written much for it yet, but here's the gist of it! I'm thinking of turning this one into a comic with one of my friends, actually, since this kind of story line leans more towards that kind of medium, I think.

Thanks again for the ask!

I'm only now getting around to things but I'd love to hear more about "Traveling Bards" for the WIP List game. My head immediately goes to cozy adventure with that sort of name but I might be wrong so I'm very curious. :)

You're kind of right! Lol. I haven't formally introduced this one yet, but Traveling Bards is an adventure-comedy surrounding a trio of sisters, who die due to a cosmic administrative error. As compensation, they get sent to a pseudo-medieval fantasy world as (technically?) mages. After a series of shenanigans, they drop out of magic school, "kidnap" a young boy in need of escape, and travel the world playing music and getting into chaos. And running from the law, since their "kidnapping" of the prince is, well, treason.

I'd certainly hope it comes across as cozy! Though the sisters are certainly very chaotic. Since they still retain their memories of their previous life, it's pretty much impossible for them to even begin blending in, which leads to even more problems for them, lol.

This is definitely one of the ones that I dream of one day getting to see adapted into a comic and/or animated TV series! 😂Thanks for the ask!
