Network Prompts
ONE: TIME TO CHECK WEBMD You've found the pharmacy, which is really convenient, since you're not feeling that great. Actually, you're feeling terrible. Maybe you have a fever, maybe you're coughing up blood, maybe you're vomiting... Whatever it is, you should probably try to get some medicine for it. Well, if you can figure out what it is. Maybe someone on the network can help you out? Alternately, you know exactly what you have--but for whatever reason, the medicine here isn't something you can easily understand. You have to choose between a couple of options, and you don't know the difference. Hopefully someone on the network can tell you which will heal you and which will probably kill you.
TWO: NOT SO HELPFUL AVATARS Every tablet has the option for a customizable avatar that will talk to you and keep your tablet in order. Maybe you set it up, maybe you never checked it. Either way, it keeps popping up unrequested and being sort of... Odd. Flickering, talking in strange, mechanical voices, offering advice that's unhelpful at best and actively harmful at worst... Maybe it's even telling the entire network some things you've been doing you'd rather everyone didn't know.
Time to call tech support. Unfortunately, the best option is other people on the network. Good luck.
Action Prompts
THREE: SCHOOL DAYS You've ended up in the elementary school. Maybe you're grabbing more food, maybe you're exploring. Either way, this place is creepy; the atmosphere is the sort that gets the hair on the back of your neck rising (potentially metaphorically, if you don't have hair or a neck). It's not long before strange things start happening. The sound of running and screaming children, doors slamming in far off or nearby hallways, pianos playing... What's going on? It's hard to tell what's really happening from what isn't happening. Maybe someone who's also exploring has some idea.
FOUR: SUPPLY SCRAMBLE You've just walked into a house, and look, there's fresh fruit sitting right out on the counter! How long has it been since you've had some of that? It'll definitely help provide some much-needed vitamins and maybe it will ward off scurvy and the like. There's even more than one piece!
...And there's more than one person here, too. So, what are you going to do? Are you willing to share, or are you prepared to stab someone over a pear? Time to find out just how badly you want that food.

Are you coughing up blood?
[ Please be coughing up blood. If he has to diagnose 'cold' for someone, this is going to be tedious. Winter wasteland, and he's stuck on clinic duty. ]
no subject
Does people coughing up blood... [ An awkward pause. ] Excite you? Like, in a sex way.
no subject
Did I dial the phone sex line? You're hot and all, but bloodplay doesn't do it for me. I'm asking about symptoms. What are you coughing up? Blood? Phlegm? A lung? Give me a color and consistency.
no subject
[ DUH. She's just out here trying to get some help for her sickness, okay, she did not ask for this. ]
Also, I'm eighteen. And you're... old.
[ Aren't you flattered, House??? Anyway, she moves directly on, seemingly unaware that what she's saying is pretty damn tactless. ]
When I cough, there's a little blood. But also green stuff. It's mucus-y, I don't know.
no subject
[ Never mind she has exactly the right idea. He's no more tactful, though. ]
Congratulations, anyway. You have pneumonia. You need amoxicillin... or an antiviral if you're unlucky. Probably unlucky.
no subject
no subject
Oseltamivir or zanamivir... might be under the names Tamiflu or Relenza. Are you just sounding things out? What kind of shit pronunciation is that? Or are all the meds here from Mexico?
no subject
No, I just made it up. I don't know what Mexican medications are supposed to sound like.
[ A pause. This is going to sound incredibly ignorant, and she knows it will, but— she's never taken anything before. ]
So how do I take it?
no subject
Amoxicillin first, Keysmash. I don't have the lab to test if you've got bacterial or viral pneumonia, but bacterial's more likely. Take 500 mg orally 3 times a day for 7 days. I'd write out a script, but I'm fresh out of paper and we're fresh out of pharmacists. Tell me how to get to where you are and I can pull some pills together for you.
[ And maybe see if there's a store of Vicodin in there. ]
no subject
[ She raises both her eyebrows. That makes sense. People do that on TV all the time when they're abusing prescription drugs during an angsty montage. ]
So I... eat it. [ Wait. No. On TV, they don't eat it. There's always water involved, usually. ] I mean, I swallow it. With water.
[ Luckily, she's got a water bottle. Otherwise, she'd be taking the pills with a handful of snow. ]
The pharmacy's in the ice tunnel things. You can try to get there, I guess, but it'll probably take awhile.
no subject
You've never taken a pill before? In your life? What are you, the bionic woman?
And thanks for the directions, MapQuest. I'm sure I'll be there in a year or two. Any branches in the tunnel I should pick. Go left to save the girl, go right to encounter the Yeti?
[ He's just... not going to mention the biggest reason it will take him, particularly 'a while' to get anywhere. Mobility issues, canes, and ice don't mix well. ]
no subject
[ Keysmash, MapQuest... she's neither of those things. She isn't going to offer her real name, though. ]
And I never had to. I don't get sick, or I recover really fast. Usually. Not here.
There aren't any Yetis around yet. Just follow the footprints. [ Or they can play cave Marco-Polo. ]
[audio]
Stop saying stupid things.
[ There's the sound of a door closing on his end, then the crunch of snow. He'll let the Yeti situation lie for now, just until he's actually in the tunnels for the Pharmacy. ]
What do you mean you don't get sick? Never had the chicken pox? A cold?
no subject
Uh, nope. [ Well, once — but that was a special case. ] Strong immune system?
no subject
Let me guess, you're a vegan who's always lived in a hypoallergenic bubble with hippie parents.
no subject
No, I lived in the woods for eight years.
no subject
Forest nymphs, huh? Or are you just a hobo?
no subject
It's complicated.
[ It's the truth — it is complicated and weird, and most people aren't exactly accepting of the whole supernatural creature thing. ]
no subject
no subject
[ hotstud_xxx is sort of an ass, though. She doesn't expect him to fold and drop the subject, so she decides on a half-assed answer. ]
If you wanna make it simple, I was the only survivor of a car crash, and I ran away and lived in the forest by myself.
no subject
Let's make it a little more complicated. Who else was in the car with you?
no subject
[ She takes a breath, then continues: ]
Mom, little sister.
no subject
[ She might also be lying. He's trying to parse that out, find the holes. ]
Where was daddy dearest?

We can wrap here or time-jump to the pharmacy. This has been a lot of fun. Thank you! 8D
this seems like a good wrap-up spot c:
