A little while ago I'd made a joking comment on probably the Torchwood community about there being some agency somewhere that handled the financial and business affairs of all the immortals in the world, and some people thought that would be a cool story.

So I was mulling it over in my mind, wondering if it would make a good story, and how one would go about creating a plot for it.

So far what I got is this. A young woman interviews at this firm, and is asked odd sorts of questions, and when she is hired she finds out her job is to handle the affairs of a particlar immortal. She finds out there are all kinds of immortals wandering the earth; some are vampires, some are fallen angel types, some are humans who, for some reason I haven't thought of yet, can't die.

I haven't come up with any kind of drama/conflict yet. I imagine the immortal she works for will drag her into some sort of exciting thingy. Normally I tend toward the 'romantic story' type of fiction, and my first thought is her client is a man, and she falls in love, but I'm also thinking maybe her client could be a woman, and it is more of a Thelma and Louise/buddy chick flick type of thing.

So far the only thing I have is a snippet of conversation between my main character and the HR person in the firm, that goes something like this )

What do you think? Does it sound vaguely interesting?
