They GIVE you a baby?
yeah I think it’s two actually ? everyone gets one boy and one girl
in the book they have “breeders” it’s one of the jobs for people who are “unmatchable”
or something. like if you don’t get a match you get taken away to become a breeder and make babies for the society
obviously that’s a detail I guess the RP wouldn’t need to have
but
it’s to prevent their “valuable” citizens from dying in childbirth
screams
butttt aside from that
thoughts on the idea??
I like it.
I feel like the idea of forced proximity for matches would be fun
opens up all kinds of possibilities
plus I mean the book is basically about her going to that other civilization to be with her crush and joining the revolution to destroy the society soooooo
maybe I add in some aspects of that too
Wait٫ what if the person doesn’t want babies٫ and what if an undesirable is barren?
I meannn if they don’t want kids that’s rough. I assume they make you have the kids
if you’re barren then tbh I think they
you
bc they also have a thing where once you turn 72 or something you have to die
like they give you a pill and you have to die bc you’re a drain on resources or something so they kill you off before you’re too much of a burden to society
My grandma’s like 77٫ and she’s very much still kicking.
Heh٫ I wouldn’t have been born٫ most likely. I was an IVF baby.
Pretend to take the pill.
Even if I was born٫ I’d be an undesirable٫ and I’m probably barren. Welp.
I would love to use somebody oppoaee to such a system like Abigail in it
Also sounes like the type of society that would do female genitalia mutilqtion to ensure no children are born before the actual marriage
nah bc it’s ingrained that you don’t really have those kinds of interactions before your match
also people are given pills every morning for breakfast? or like part of breakfast? idk
and I’m 95% one of them has to make everyone infertile. bc there’s no way people aren’t accidentally making babies unless they’re prevented from doing it
I think the babies are lab made and implanted? I’m not sure. there was a section of a chapter on it tho. I’ll have to reread the book
nahhh they make you take your pills
very authoritarian. like they are watching you
I just think it would be the most fun? out of all the ones I’ve pitched so far?
some are very intricate ideas. some are complex. this one would be simple and fun
