I haven't thought of this in years but back in the '90s I participated in an email fantasy RPG where we all roleplayed Romulans. One person would write a chapter from their character's POV and email it to the group, then the next person does one, and so on, so the story unfolded in unexpected ways. It was actually pretty fun.
That sounds like such a an awesome early internet thing.
It was. And then of course this one guy asked me if I wanted to take it private so our characters could have their own little love subplot. And uh... I said yes.
Now THAT also sounds like early internet too...
