Gideon: I'd kind of like to do something with his superstitians and/or his drinking problem. The former could be humorous. Though he believes, he definitely realizes most people think he's bonkers for doing so. Maybe a series of fortunate events, as it were, to "prove" his precations true?
Katya: I know Katya's a BAMF and I hope others think she is. The problem is that she never really has the opportunity to show it. As Queen she tends to keep hands off (or as she says, never have any fun) and delegate matters. My head canon says not all the old families are happy with an upstart Outsider being handed Queen rather than killing for earning it. Could there be an assassination plot that unravels? A challenge? Word of advice, all Katya's challenges one way or the other ended in her opponant's death (read, she engineered any that weren't outright kills). Therefore, a challenger would need to be a dropping character no one really cares about or an NPC, which then makes it look like I'm engineering things. I suppose I sort of am since I obviously want her to retain her rank!
Maggie: How does her garden grow? Is someone stealing from her personal plants? Her medicinal weed? I've always thought of her as their self-appointed spy and enforcer when the powers that be were unwilling to go that route. Perhaps someone found out and talks to her about it? Perhaps she needs to take care of a certain problem (this could tie in with someone else's plot if wanted).
Monty: Really needs plotty stuff because I'm at a loss for stuff to do with him. He's a con man, so it takes one to know another. Maybe he stumbles upon something? Maybe the people who've been trying to kill him Outside finally track him down. (Meh. That sounds an awful lot like the last big plot [Outside finding the Deck] so that probably wouldn't work?) I got nothing. Help?
Sophie: Sophie will be giving up the library proper when she advances to Nine (i.e., when I write up her challenge). She would love to start a deckwide Museum, and I probably will have her do something with that (proposing the idea, working out the logistics, convincing the Suits to contribute, etc.). I'm open for any ideas if you'd like to see her do something. She hasn't had much conflict in her life lately.
Tess: I need some other things for Tess to do. She's begun a tentative Thing with Cadogan, something which she has absolutely NO experience with. She's more the flirt and good times sort of person. I'd love for someone to pick up her no account biodad, Marc (PB tentatively Richard Gere). He's a flirt and a wastrel and has populated the entire Deck with his byblows. Tess finds him infuriating and embarrassing, but he is family. Problems with her mom, Bridget (she of the 5' nothing frame who decked Marc when he knocked her up) who's main goal in life right now seems to be trying to marry her daughter off would be cool, too.
Mainly, I need something else other than work and avoiding her family for her to do. As usual, got nothing.
