Hi friends, and welcome to my SYOC. One of the more unorthodox SYOCs on this site...and you will soon see why. Here's an excerpt, followed by more information on how this will turn up. It could be an utter failure for all I know, but I wouldn't know unless I tried, right? So here goes nothing.

The following chapters are oneshots, featuring events or moments that take place ever since Shawn was brought to Camp Half Blood at the age of 15. These moments may seem insignificant, and perhaps some are a little over-the-top, but nevertheless, they are bits which played a part in the growing of his character. Over the course of the years at Camp, he has felt joy, happiness, and thrills, and yet there have also been countless times of heartbreak, betrayal, and anger.

Throughout his journey, Shawn has experienced the start of budding friendships, met bullies, had rivals and has been thrown into countless scenarios, some for better and some for worse. And these memories are compounded into oneshots and recorded in this story.

So this is not going to be your typical SYOC, because the characters you submit and the scenario you give are going to shape their relationship with Shawn. Please note it is a oneshot, so your characters will only be used once, unless somewhere down the road I agree to use handpicked characters again for another chapter in a different scenario.

Basically, this is how it works. You submit your character through a form which can be found on my profile, and give me a situation where you like to see both your OC and Shawn in, and I'll do my best to write a oneshot on it. Please note, the simpler the scenario (plotwise), the more room there will be for character development, though I would like it if you were a bit more specific in giving an idea for the scenario.

Also, because I can foresee many of the submissions are going to have their relationship as 'friends', I would be more willing to write other more unique ones, such as 'bullies', 'rivals', and even 'crushes'. Feel free to throw in anything here, however outrageous it may be. I will go out of my way to fit them in, especially if they have not been done before.

So I understand you need a glimpse of Shawn's personality for this to work, and since it is just the beginning, I'm taking a little risk here because it's so vague. But Shawn's personality and character is going to be loosely based on the real life singer Shawn Mendes. To some people you might be thinking 'who's that dude?' and that's okay… his character will be clearer as the story progresses. For those who know him, then *nod of respect* good for ya :D
