This takes place during the end of the apocalypse; most humans are dead, but not quite all of them are gone yet. The smartest humans, who are the only ones still alive, have started making robots to try to continue their legacy even after they've all died off. The other RP'er (whoever I do the RP with) plays as one of these robots, while I play as the other robots and antagonists as such (for worldbuilding purposes). The end goal is to figure out and stop whatever has caused the source of life for these robots, called 'goldenblood' or 'essence', and recover it, as the main character will die if they don't get the needed amount of it in time.
Idea 2:
There are two main characters in this one. One played by me, the other by the other RP'er. This one takes place in a world where insects and arachnids are humanized and have their own tiny kingdoms. However, the kingdoms have run into a sickness that is starting to kill them all off at an increasing rate. The main characters' goal is to find either a cure or some other way to escape the plague threatening to extinct them.

Ok! Would you like some more specific info on the bug kingdoms themselves, or are you fine with just jumping in to the rp?

(Mantis kingdom) Tikuricia: Ruled by Queen Histhera. It is a military-based matriarchal society, and males tend to be shunned. Most males leave the kingdom when they reach adulthood to avoid being eaten by a female mate. Males who dont leave usually end up becoming soldiers or spies. They are generally peaceful, but are not to be messed with as they have never lost a war.
(Bee kingdom) Vicarin: Ruled by a bee called the Queen, though this Queen can be either male or female. The current Queen is Queen Luki. They are the only kingdom without any true consciousness; all non-Queen bees follow the Queen with no actual thoughts of their own. The bees are a parasitic species, and will kill any unfortunate bugs that wander into their territory. However, theyre not a problem so long as theyre left alone.
Yuiana: Considered the most diverse kingdom, being home to a mix of spiders, ants, scorpions, and moths. There tends to be a lot of in-fighting, but with the plague going on there isnt much right now. They dont have official leaders, but generally Rita and Fana are accepted as Yuianas leaders.
(Butterfly kingdom) Ritura: Led by Lord Gangi and Lady Tirina. The kingdom is very secluded and generally passive. Specifically, the kingdom is made mostly of monarch butterflies and swallowtail butterflies. It is the only kingdom that works as a democracy instead of a monarchy.

Yeah. They only can have a consciousness if either the Queen personally gives them one or if they're outside of the kingdom. But it takes a lot of energy or the Queen to give somebody an entire consciousness when there's powerful forces in place to prevent it, so they can only give it to a couple people at a time.
Also, it's canon that this group of kingdoms is somewhere in Asia (because the bugs there look neat), so each kingdom has a specific species with a link to what each one looks like;
the mantis kingdom has creabroter gemmatus and chinese mantis
Yuiana has: Haplopelma schmidti spiders, brown recluse spiders (also sometimes called violin spiders), Ornithoctoninae (a breed of tarantula), attacus atlus moths, creatonotos gangis moths, (sylestia is freaking out bc of the links' length so imma do a second post)

The Vicarin bees don't have a real-life counterpart, but they're based off a family of wasp which are called parasitiod wasps. So let's say for stories' sake they're a hybrid of Trissolcus japonicus (called Samurai Wasps) and Apis cerana (Asiatic honey bee).
And Ritura's have already been mentioned, but turns out that monarchs can't be found in Asia. SO they're being replaced with Stibochiona nicea
