Network Prompts
ONE: A FRUITFUL ENDEAVOR
You arrive at the grocery store downtown in the early evening. There's still plenty of food, but of course the bread is no longer warm and most of the best selection has been taken. What's left of the produce is pretty obscure; what the heck is a lychee, or a starfruit, or a pluot? Maybe the skin of this one isn't meant to be eaten? What about the leaves? And as for the bread, what on earth is pumpernickel anyway? To say the least of what this must look like if you're not from Earth or some place similar.
Maybe someone more familiar with obscure Earth foods will have some answers for you!
TWO: YOU'RE BREAKING UP
There's a bit of a malfunction on the network. Text posts seem to be fine, if received at a bit of a delay, but there's definitely some trouble with the audio and video functions. There's noticeable static interference in most of the voice and video posts, obscuring both audio and video feeds alike. Sometimes, the shape of a person can almost be seen in the static of the videos--or maybe it's the shape of a monster.
Regardless, try to be polite to those you're talking with. It isn't their fault you can't hear parts of what they're saying. (Please write out all of your character's dialogue if you're using this prompt so that we can get a better feel for their voice! Simply indicate in the narration what cannot be heard as a result of the static, or leave it up to your thread partner to decide what does not come through.)
Action Prompts
THREE: COLD HANDS, WARM HEART
Either you arrived in Norfinbury bare-handed or became that way somewhere along the road, but your hands are freezing. You worry you may be prone to frostbite sometime soon, but you haven’t had any luck finding any sort of fabric that you could turn into some makeshift protection. Your travel partner is in a similar situation, as well. That’s when you stop in a building for the night and find it: one perfect pair of fluffy mittens. But there’s only one pair. Will you give them to your companion? Keep them for yourself? Hide them? Or try to make a compromise?
If all else fails, there’s always rock, paper, scissors.
FOUR: ONE LUMP OR TWO?
There's been a buzz on the network lately about a box full of tea packets having been discovered. Maybe you're a tea person or maybe you aren't, but for the sake of being able to drink something warm (and something unexpired for that matter), you've dragged yourself over to a rendezvous point for one purpose and one purpose alone: a tea party. Of course, there is always the danger of monsters, particularly when you're around too many people...but maybe it's worth it for a hot drink, right?

Not a dwarf, mate. It's just bloody dark.
What are you talking about doors?
It's lockdown isn't it?
Some of your message missed coming through.

OK. There are no talking doors.
I think this is broken.
[ Duh. ]

Dunno what's going on, but you sound mental over this thing. I'm guessing I do, too unless it's just my receiver that's mucking about. Are you getting this? I'll try Skype next if it doesn't work. Facetime. Whatever the vid function is.
