Here's the thing. Paris by The Chainsmokers is one of my favorite songs ever. And I have thought sooo much about the lyrics and have tried to figure out the meaning behind them. I feel like they can mean different things and work for different scenarios. So, why not make an rp about it?
It's a one on one, and I'm thinking romance, of course. Preferably fluff.
Here's a link to the song, and plot line can be discussed. I really hope that someone wants to join!
(Oo May I join?)
Sure! Have you heard the song and do you like it?
I haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet but I did read the lyrics! It looks awesome
(I just finished listening to it! I love it)
Yay! So, should we start with the plot line? I was thinking that parts of it could be at a hotel or something since it is kinda mentioned in the song
True, I like that! Should they actually be in Paris or should it just be a metaphor?
Nah I was thinking actual Paris. Goes well with romance and stuff.
If we go down then we go down together
They'll say you could do anything
They'll say that I was clever
If we go down then we go down together
We'll get away with everything
Let's show them we are better
So, this part. I'm thinking that my character would be a bit… unstable, maybe? Like, anger managment issues, panic attacks, mood swings and that kind of stuff. I dunno about the further plot tho…
Oo, ok! The character I have in mind has dealt with cancer (depends on the plot whether she’s in remission or not), so that might work well. She’s pretty emotionally stable so she might help stabilize/balance out your character?
Sounds great! So should we start the plot with them meeting or should they know each other but not be together yet, or should they already be a couple? And should we start it in Paris or before that?
Hmm what if they meet in Paris? They could meet when one of them just gets there or at the airport?
Also do we need templates?
I can fix a template, and that idea sounds good. Gimme a minute.

Real quick before I fill the template out what gender is your character?
He's a boi
Name: Faye Dekker
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Sexuality: straight
Appearance:
Personality: Faye is pretty extroverted and open making friends. She’s sensible, albeit a little impulsive when it comes to relationships. She’s very picky when it comes to boyfriends, and hasn’t had many.
Optional Backstory: When she was 15, she was diagnosed with cancer. She’s been in and out of the hospital with chemotherapy, and finally went into remission recently.
Reason for going to Paris: she wants to escape her family and the life she lived in while she had cancer. She wanted a new environment
Other: mbti is ENFP
Name: Felix Titling
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bi
Appearance: https://pin.it/wxukj2d7t5a4vp
Felix likes leather jackets and plain outfits, like a white t-shirt and jeans together with a black leather jacket. He also has a pair of red converse that he always wears.
Personality: He is either super happy and intense and just everywhere all the time, or he's depressed with anxiety and panic attacks. He has mood swings, his mood can change from one moment to another. Felix has anger management issues, but it takes a lot to actually get him upset. When he is in a good mood, he is often very flirty and funny.
Optional Backstory: Things are a complete mess in Felix's family. They fight all the time and he's been abused by his mother who hits him. His father just agrees with everything his mother says. He has an older sister, but she moved out a couple of years ago. His mother has basicly been controlling his entire life since forever, so Felix isn't really used to being on his own. Therefor, he now loves being alone and is kinda scared of people in general. He started living on his own when he was 20, but she still seemed to control everything.
Reason for going to Paris: He left as soon as he turned 22, after a particulary bad fight with his parents. He wants to get a job in Paris and an apartment there.
Other: He has a pocket knife that he always carries with him. He likes to fidget with it whenever he's nervous.
(I should probably warn you though… English isn't my native language so I might mess up some grammar but hopefully I wont)
(Ok! That’s totally fine :) also I love Felix. I’ll also put a link of Faye’s picture in her bio if you’d ever like to see too)
(Ooh she's pretty and she seems great)
(Thanks! Do you have an idea how to start the story/ the starter?)
(Yeah just give me a couple of minutes and I'll write a starter)
(Oke doke)
Felix looked out the window of the airplane. Wow. The view was truly amazing. He plugged his headphones in as they started to land. He was nervous as hell. Not only was he starting a new life here, he left his entire old life behind. A backpack filled with only the most necessary was all he brought. Everything else… he would have to figure that out later.
Sitting in a cab, Felix started to doubt his plan. Running away like this, was he crazy? He knew no one here. Big city, small Felix. Not a good combination.
(I was thinking they could meet at the hotel? Is that okay with you?)
