So what you're proposing here could be called...

A hypnopub?

If anything, Mezzberry was willing to take on the ideas that I put forth of the OC doms and subs hanging out. And for how great they turned out, I'll of course be eternally thankful for em.

I'm not sure who the side character would be, but part of me suspects a character that's either somehow immune to hypnosis and acts as a straightman + shoulder to lean on/talk to, or is already under someone's control, hence why they can't be controlled by others and is working as a bartender in a way.

I do like the sound of this early idea though for sure.

OK OK OK
Lemme tell you this
The plan for WOH starting season 2 is to create a full fledge universe in which all the OC's are interacting, with plots involving Famous OCs and new characters from Myuk.

In this universe, there will be a place fitting the aforementioned description of a Lounge/Bar (no spoilers) with its own bartender and patrons among which will figure every OC you can imagine!

So I humbly ask that you let me and Myuk give it a shot, because I have thought about this long and hard, made a lot of plans about it.

I do not want to deprive you of the convivial setting, but it would be an important part of the WoH universe, which is as we are trying to create it a common ground for all the hub past, present and future OC to evolve into.

We are definitly working on making this happen.

Thanks for the shout-out, Joy! It really does mean a lot. Though RCBC gets equal credit for both commissioning the pieces and picking out the vast majority of characters.

I'm all for this idea. I love the sense of community and camaraderie you get from having a bunch of different established characters and OCs existing and hanging out in the same worldspace. Now that I'm confident enough to start putting more original work out there, I'm hoping to include numerous fellow community members' OCs in my story works - could be simple cameos, could be meatier roles depending on the story and how much time I have (Erika, Zorro, and Pink are among the characters making brief appearances in the Mezzberry character's short introductory comic, for instance).

Actually, ever since I started envisioning Mezzy as her own character with her own world (as opposed to simply my genderbent avatar), I got this idea to kind of create this vague hub world that she and my other characters could exist in, and other artists and their characters could utilize as well. It's an enormous world, roughly five times the size of Earth, so there's always a new continent out there somewhere. Many of the nations and world-spaces are connected, but separate enough to exist in their own biomes, so to speak - you could travel 1,000 miles in any direction from the pseudo-contemporary magitech metropolis of Argamath and wind up deep in a primordial jungle, or a windswept wasteland, or a quaint little high-fantasy barony. I might even make up some canon excuse - some unknown magical force prevents accurate cartography - so that the worldspace between specific cities and realms could always be kept vague and open to interpretation. The current era in this world is also an unprecedented time of peace and prosperity, so while person-to-person conflicts and small-scale battles could exist, there's no giant assemble-the-Avengers catastrophes that would affect everyone at once.

So as long as one follows a few simple guidelines (don't deliberately contradict someone else's canon, don't try to create some global crisis / world's-end scenario), one could carve out one's own little slice of it.

Making Mezzy's world an 'open world' hub-type place for other artists to use equally is still a vague concept I'm kicking around, seeing if it sparks any interest. But maybe you'd like to have your bar exist in such a place?
