This Creativity Post is probably my most vague of my Summer\u201925 batch.<\/p>\n

I like the pics, and they jumped out at me right away but I\u2019m still not sure what the story is here. I feel like the girl is the POV character but it could just as easily be the guy. I think this will end up being more of a character idea vs a story idea of karate on the beach.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t see them as being mercenaries, but they look like they could be feds. Maybe FBI. Maybe they\u2019re both rising stars just out of Quantico and they get assigned together on the same team. Or maybe they\u2019re a year apart. I\u2019d research that to make sure it makes sense.<\/p>\n

Maybe they both have a thing for karate and decided to do workouts together. Before work or after.<\/p>\n

One idea that could work that came to me as I write this, is they could be the FBI agents assigned the case to track down \u2018The Bartender\u2019 (CP 75<\/a>,76<\/a>) or another villain I\u2019ve created.<\/p>\n

I think that\u2019s probably the best use of this idea from these pics, using them with another idea I\u2019ve already done instead of trying to make them their own thing.<\/p>\n
