Popeman Ideas

I think if i have an initial explosion they're madness can be 'justified' (at least in they're own heads.). What could lead to an accidental explosion? A homless man peeing outside and effecting the electronics could work.

He enters under the bridge. Maybe i can have multiple encounters like a video game. He can find power ups/health. I loved this aspect of scott pilgrim it would be fun to integrate something similar into my own story. This also allows me to drag out the end a little longer.

He fails his fight. Maybe i can have him win, but be jumped by other homeless bums. This way he looks tough and just let his gaurd down too soon, i think this works better for him.

I want him to dress up as 'Choirboy'. He then saves John Paul with his pen. He isn't doing too much at the moment. I want him to be the brains so maybe i can set up more obstacles that he can solve.

I'm really happy with the progress i'm making with this story. It's a fine balance, but i feel i've managed it well.
