TEST DRIVE MEME

If you'd like to apply to Snowblind and would like to test the waters first or get a sample set up for your application, this meme is for you! We've even provided some prompts for you to use if you want (but feel free to make up your own). Here's how it works.
✭ Reply to this entry with a character you're considering apping into the game. You can include the name of your character and the fandom in your subject line.
✭ Comment around to others on the meme, whether you're in the game already or not.
✭ Now you have a sample ready for your application!
✭ So go reserve and apply when reservations and applications are open.
✭ Seriously, do it.


Network Prompts
ONE: @XX_BLAZEIT69
You’ve just downloaded a brand new application that you found in a building to your tablet. It turns out it’s some sort of username assignment program. Using it allows you to select current active usernames and rename them into new ones that only you can change. But with great power comes great responsibility—will you use this new program to give people usernames they’d like in place of an unfortunate one they gave themselves before they realized it couldn’t be changed…or will you give them something you think is more fitting for them, flattering or otherwise?

TWO: CONTENT WARNING
It’s around the time that new arrivals should be appearing on the network, but you’re noticing a bit of a bigger influx than normal. When you click on one of the posts by one of them, you’re redirected to a flood of disturbing text and images that disappears completely once you manage to exit out—as if it had never been there in the first place. Maybe you should warn the others to be careful of what they click on. Or maybe you can discuss it with those who have already made the same mistake as you did. Perhaps you can set up a code system to differentiate the fake posts from the real ones.


Action Prompts
THREE: WALKING IN CIRCLES
You’ve been walking all day, tirelessly, but somehow, even though you’re sure you’ve been walking in a straight line you keep passing the same landmarks and coming back to the same house you started from. You’re not sure if it’s your imagination or if you’re actually getting turned around, but you’re determined not to stop until you’ve found a new place to sleep in. Unfortunately, the longer you try, the closer you get to lockdown. Maybe the one you’re traveling with will be able to help you get your bearings before you both freeze to death?

FOUR: TOPSY TURVY
It's past lockdown, and it should be a quiet and peaceful night - as quiet and peaceful as any night can get in Norfinbury, anyway. And you've even managed to find somebody to bunker down with! But about an hour or so into the lockdown, things start to seem just a little... off. Furniture you could swear was on one side of the room suddenly appears on the other. You might hear footsteps from up above you - even if there's no second floor. Or you might hear whispers, snatches of conversation just quiet enough to be unintelligible. Is your buddy messing with you? Or is this all just in your head?

Hawkguy?

[Can one word convey amusement?]

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-07-23 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a
Sort of a
Inside joke?

Don't judge me, Mr. Legend
definingfuture: (T - Mild look of PR acceptability.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-07-23 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh. You'd have to be there?

I'm always judging. Somebody has to judge.
awwnoun: (Default)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-07-24 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
You'd have to be there and know the people and stuff
Yeah

This is a judge free zone. I'm just a regular hawk. Guy. Hawkguy, and you're just a regular vampire hunter who was the bad guy all along apparently
definingfuture: (Tony - I've got a great idea.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-07-24 12:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Frightening children and doing harm I'd never considered before. That's apparently the legacy for that.

Yours, I think, it probably a better one. I hope your tablet doesn't rob you of it. They can be a bit temperamental.

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-07-29 03:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh great, temperamental technology my FAVORITE

Wait, are you being serious?
definingfuture: (Tony - I've got a great idea.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-07-29 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes.

The technology is very temperamental.


[He's having a bit of fun at his expense. Partially to confirm his suspicions that this is his "hawkguy".]

So that means I should hit my tablet against a wall until it stops letting eyeball-less ladies pop up on my screen, is what you're saying.
definingfuture: (T - Thank you. I know what I said.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-02 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
No! What kind of monster are you? Don't be a brute, hawk-man. You can fix it without breaking it.
awwnoun: (Default)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-08-02 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
You're totally taking the tablet's side!
Did it get to you already
It's the singularity, I knew it was going to happen eventually


[ Clint is very amused by this conversation. ]
definingfuture: (T - You would dare strike a wizard?)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-02 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. It's a tablet. It doesn't have a side. Why do you want to break perfectly good equipment for malfunctioning? Do you know how much these things cost? The materials alone in a place like this are invaluable. It's communication!
awwnoun: (Default)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-08-02 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa, are you like, actually mad?
definingfuture: (T - And you're fucking welcome.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-02 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
No, I'm not mad. Why would I be mad? Just treat your equipment right! It's expensive.
awwnoun: (Default)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-08-02 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
We're pretty much in Snowpiercer minus the train and you're worried about expensive?
I think these things are worth like maybe a pack of cigarettes or whatever it is we're using here as currency

definingfuture: (T - Your face is wrong.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-02 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
What?

Don't be an ass. The tablet isn't hurting you. And you need it. It lets you communicate with everyone else.

Also, while we're communicating and before you do something stupid to your tablet, are you okay?

Snowpiercer? You know, train, snow, the world turned into the next ice age because of climate engineering gone wrong?

I also wasn't actually going to smash my tablets into pieces but thanks for your faith in me, man
Also also, I'm fine. I'm cold, but fine.
definingfuture: (T - And what did I do this time?)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-02 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds like an anime.

I have faith in you. It's very realistic faith. Everyone is cold, so how cold are we talking? Do you need help? Vitals all good?
awwnoun: (Default)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-08-02 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
You sound like an anime

Are you really trying to Mom me right now?
awwnoun: (Default)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-08-02 07:17 am (UTC)(link)
[ Definitely trying to mom him. Scary. ]

I don't exactly have shoes.
But I found a coat, and I found a blanket, so I've got my feet wrapped up in it. I'm also talking to you with the voice-to-text function, because it's futzing cold and I don't want my fingers to fall off.
definingfuture: (T - Who said I'm a good guy?)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-02 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's worried about you, Clint. Especially when the answers end up sounding like that. Apparently Tony had a reason to worry!]

I'm coming to you. Where are you?
awwnoun: (Default)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-08-04 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ When doesn't he have reason to worry, let's be honest. ]

So the house I'm in is full of clowns
That's not terrifying to just me, right
Do you know where that is because I got no clue
definingfuture: (T - So. Trolls.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-05 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[He pauses to sigh at his tablet. Clint, please.]

That doesn't ring any bells, no. Can't you see what's around you? Landmarks?
Weird structures that stand out?
Alien beacons?
Anything?
awwnoun: (009)

[personal profile] awwnoun 2016-08-06 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
The school is north from here, I can see it
I bet you it is just FULL of alien beacons
Judging by this place it probably also has creepy children
of the corn variety
definingfuture: (T - Your PSA for the evening.)

[personal profile] definingfuture 2016-08-07 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I won't bet against you on that.
Nothing to bet.
And I'm headed your way. I'll get an earful if I let you freeze to death.
