Eerie Atmospheric Settings: Plot Starters
Instead of a specific plot to work around, here’s a list of settings that all feature a melancholy, moody, or creepy atmosphere. Simply send me a symbol for a setting you want to RP in, and I’ll either make a starter or approach you to plot!
🌕A full moon night with wind whistling through the trees
🌊The seashore late at night, with lightning over the water in the distance
🏤Stepping into a house that gives off all the wrong vibes
🍁A cold day in late autumn, which is silent and deeply lonely
🎹Nighttime in an ancient house/manor, with the tinkling of piano keys from the next room
💧 Rain in the early morning, so dark that there’s hardly a sunrise
⛪A church right after a funeral, a small handful of people dressed in black hanging their heads in silence
🌳A maze-like forest at dusk, with a sense of anxiety as the sun disappears
⛵On the beach before dawn as remnants of a ship wreck wash onto shore
🍂A chilly, overcast autumn afternoon
🌃Midnight in a busy city, sirens blaring a few blocks away
🎃After dark on Halloween night after trick-or-treating ends
🚘Sitting with a popped tired on the side of a long stretch of road, waiting
⚡Distant thunder from a massive storm headed straight this way
🥀An overgrown garden of nothing but poisonous (or dead, dry) plants
🌾An eerie plot of farmland with seemingly no one around for miles
🐊Murky swampland with posted warnings to keep people away
🔥 A roaring bonfire in the distance on a pitch black night, with dark silhouettes crowded or dancing around it
🚧Standing near old, abandoned train tracks when the bell starts to ring
🐟Taking a swim on an uninhabited plot of beach, noticing ripples in the water
🌿An old-fashioned plantation with secretive locals and a bitter history
💀A cemetery full of dead, dry flowers as if all of the plots have been forgotten, some of the stones cracked or sinking into the dirt
🚇A dingy old subway station, walls chipped to pieces, while waiting for a ride home
🌈The sad silence after a violent storm, debris and wreckage everywhere
👗An attic full of musty clothes and antiques belonging to someone long-dead
❄ A snowstorm locking everyone in their homes, with electricity flickering
🍄An enchanting plot of forest or stream, tiny whispers cutting the silence
🌑Inside of a re-occurring nightmare had time and time again
☔Taking a long walk with an umbrella, struggling with a low, low mood
☕At a quiet cafe, but unfamiliar folk are whispering and staring
🌵A winding road through the desert with only one dingy hotel, its ‘vacancy’ light flickering red
💤Dreaming of scraping nails gainst the window glass, and waking to still hear it
🐕A quiet night, the only sound being the call of coyotes/wolves in the woods

Eddie sighs, rolling his eyes at Roland's usual non-answers. Somehow he doubts he'll ever get a straight answer from the man. It was always Ka this and Ka that and talking in circles, answering questions with more questions.
He frowns at Roland, unsure if the man is trying to make a joke or if he is being serious. He decides to go with his normal reaction to, well pretty much everything. Making a joke himself. "Somehow, I think the others might notice if you started sleeping with a gag."
makethedevilsethimselfonfire​:
Eddie sits near the campfire, idly poking at the embers as he waits for Roland to explain. Or not. Most likely the latter. Roland had a bad habit of never really explaining much at all, especially if it had anything to do with himself or his thoughts or feelings. Eddie is almost surprised when the gunslinger actually does continue.
“And why’re you telling me this and not the others?” He nodded off to the side where the others were still sleeping. “Or was it just the luck of the draw?” Eddie glanced up at his companion, trying for the thousandth time to read Roland’s face.
Roland watches Eddie for a moment, his face, as always, giving nothing away, except, perhaps, a hint of genuine consideration. It’s gone in a moment there, and perhaps it was never there at all. He turns again, back to the fire, head in profile to the younger Dean brother. 
“There is no luck of the draw, Eddie.” Which is just his roundabout way of answering in the way Eddie hates the most. Ka. “It came to you and I awake.”
A soft sigh. And Roland makes one of his rare attempts at a joke. Or. He might just be being serious. With him, it’s nearly impossible to tell.
“I know not to cry out in my sleep, so you needn’t gag me.”

@makethedevilsethimselfonfire​ cont. from (x).
Roland does not find a point in telling Eddie nightmares have plagued him on and off since he was young. He does not find a point to tell Eddie much at all, really. He was quite good at keeping his own counsel, even when he quietly knew how important it was to be open with one’s ka-tet. It had been long since he’d been in any sort of tet, say true, and he was, perhaps, a little lacking on the manners of one. 
“Mm.” 
It seems like he may not give much of any more response, as he’s sat on his haunches, looking into the fire. But he does speak, in that flat, blank voice he has. 
“I tell you because it has become harder for me to go into rest at night. And I tell you because if I were to become less sharp because of it, it is you the burden falls on to pick up the pieces.”

Default
This is the Verse everything will be in unless otherwise stated
After being ‘drawn’ out of his own world and into a strange new one in 1987, heroin junkie Eddie Dean was forced to overcome his addiction and learn the trade of the Gunslinger from his new companions and ka-mates Roland, Susannah and Jake and is drug along on the quest to find the legendary Dark Tower. A quest which none of them expect to make it out of alive.
Before they reach the Dark Tower, Eddie was killed, only to wake up in another new world, more similar to his own than to Roland’s, seemingly his own but further in the future than when he left. He’s back in New York again, though he’s still trying to figure out this new time.

In this Verse, Eddie is still in Mid-World with the Ka-Tet

All things serve the fucking Beam
Independent, Canon Divergent, and Single-Verse Eddie Dean from Stephen King's The Dark Tower
sideblog for sugaraddictedarchangel, follows and messages will come from there
I track the tag makethedevilsethimselfonfire
FC: Aaron Paul
Mun: Lyd, She/They, 30, GMT-5
Mun and Muse are both legal and there could be smut here at some point. It may or may not be under a read more but WILL be tagged as nsfw. I WILL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES SMUT WITH A MINOR. If I find out someone has lied to me about their age to get me to smut with them, I will drop ALL communication and threads with that person. THIS IS YOUR ONE WARNING.
There may also be different possibly triggering themes, such as drug use, death and violence. I’ll try to tag everything as #insertwarninghere cw (drug use cw). If I don’t tag something and you need me to, just drop me a message and I’ll try to start adding those tags.
Rules:
I do not thread with personal blogs. If you are not an RP blog, I will NOT be making you a starter no matter how many times you like my starter call posts.
If you are not involved in the thread, DO NOT REBLOG IT. Likes are fine. Reblogs are not.
I am perfectly fine with the more adult themes - blood, gore, schmexy times, etc - but I’m not a big fan of actually writing smut and would generally prefer a fade to black. On this note, I WILL NOT SMUT WITH MINORS. If you try to lie to me about your age to get me to smut with you, I will cut off all contact immediately and any and all threads will be dropped no questions asked.
I don’t generally tag things, mostly because I am super forgetful, but I absolutely will if anyone needs me to.
Following, then unfollowing and refollowing will not get you a greeting. I rarely make greetings unless I get a particular bit of inspiration for one.
I am willing to thread with you even if I don’t know your fandom/you don’t have a fandom. I might have to get clarification on your character/fandom, but I absolutely don’t have to know the character/source material/fandom to be willing to thread with you. I am also OC friendly, as long as you’ve got some sort of about page or info for me to work with.
This is a - mostly - single verse blog. I have my main verse that is my default (where Eddie died and wound up back in New York in a different universe and a different time than his own), and I have a AU where he is still in Mid-World on the search for the Tower with the Ka-Tet
I don’t do passwords. If I follow you, I promise I’ve read your rules and other relevant pages, I just don’t like the whole “Message me this password to prove you read this” thing. I’m sorry if that offends anyone, it’s just not my cup of tea.
This is a NOT Multiverse blog. Every thread is in the same verse unless otherwise stated. Every once and a while I may do an AU. But it is something that I need to talk to you about before hand and I’d prefer if we had threaded before in my Main Verse first, though it’s not required.
Name: Edward Cantor Dean
Nicknames:Eddie
Age: 23ish. Time’s gone by differently since Roland ‘drew’ him from his world into Roland’s own.
Occupation: Gunslinger, one of the last
History: After being ‘drawn’ out of his own world and into a strange new one in 1987, heroin junkie Eddie Dean was forced to overcome his addiction and learn the trade of the Gunslinger from his new companions and ka-mates Roland, Susannah and Jake and is drug along on the quest to find the legendary Dark Tower. A quest which none of them expect to make it out of alive.
Before they reach the Dark Tower, Eddie was killed, only to wake up in another new world, more similar to his own than to Roland’s, seemingly his own but further in the future than when he left. He’s back in New York again, though he’s still trying to figure out this new time.
I’m keeping most of Eddie’s story before his death the same as the books but, as Jake said before his first death, “There are other worlds than these.” Eddie just happened to be reborn into a different time.

prompts for emotionally stunted idiots

“  i’m not looking for a friend.  i’m looking for someone just as angry as i am.  ”
“  i’m not good at caring about people’s shit on purpose.  ”
“  i’m not gonna ask if ‘you’re okay’ cause that’s fuckin’ annoying.  you wanna get the hell out of here and do something?  ”

“  you should’ve seen the look on their face.  it’s been so long since i’ve made someone that fuckin’ angry it was great.  ” 
“  i have this neighbor who keeps playing driver’s license at 10 a.m. every morning and i’m starting to question if it’s a sixteen year old getting over a breakup or a 36 year old trying to reclaim their childhood. at this point the mystery is the only thing keeping me going.  ”
“  do i trust you?  absolutely not.  next question.  ”
“  if i don’t get a nap in the next hour i’ll probably murder someone.  ”
“  you’re getting that look in your eyes like you’re about to ask me what’s wrong so i’m gonna save us both the awkwardness of finding an excuse to leave and just go now.  ”
