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: WAKEY WAKEY
You're drawn out of your slumber when your tablet emits an earsplitting SCREECH. No amount of shaking it or hitting it will get it to shut up for five whole minutes, but at the very end it cuts itself off what sounds like a piercing scream. Well, that was weird. Maybe you should check in on the network - someone might have an idea of what that was. Or maybe they'll be just as lost as you are. At least you can all be confused together...

TWO: DON'T LET THE BEDBUGS BITE...
It's past curfew, and you've been locked in for the night. But for some reason, you just can't manage to get to sleep. Nightmares giving you grief? General insomnia problems? Well, at least you've got the network to keep you company. Maybe you can get someone to tell you a bedtime story.


Action Prompts
THREE: INCONVENIENCE STORE
Congratulations, you've managed to stumble upon the Mallard River Market! But you're not alone. Among the shelves of junk food (just as well-stocked as you would expect from any normal store) you'll find one - or more! - other people there with you. Here's hoping you're not both after the same box of Frosted Toaster Pastries, because things could get ugly fast. Don't linger too long, either; at 7PM, you'll be compelled to leave whether you want to or not and will only have about an hour to find somewhere to take shelter...

FOUR: RUN RUN RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN
It's late. It's cold. There's a bunch of snow around you and you can sort of make out vague shapes in the distance that might be buildings, but in these conditions it's hard to tell. Regardless of what they are, though, you're going to want to hustle - if it hits 8PM and you're still outside, you're not going to make it through the night. Perhaps that person up ahead can help you? Or - if you're already safe and sound - maybe you should head outside to get that poor soul struggling outside in to shelter before they freeze. Good luck!

[she notices his surprise, and flashes a smile when he takes the jar, but her face quickly settles back into a businesslike expression as she flips her pack closed and heaves it up over her shoulder by one strap.]

Mm—you're right.

[she picks up her spear and adjusts her hat, touching the brim politely as she strides past him on her way to the door. Waiting for him to lead the way out, even though he suggested it? nah.]

I spotted shelter on my way here; I'll show you. It's nearby. Shame we can't camp here—but that would make things too easy for us.

[she's bitter about this darn Mysterious Supernatural Town and its Mysterious Supernatural Rules.]

[Well! He was a little worried at first, but it seems like she's more responsible than he thought. It wouldn't be the first time he dealt with an irresponsible (or responsibly irresponsible?!) partner, but it's still a bit of a relief. He follows after her, nodding in agreement.]

If it's too easy, it's probably a trap. [Like Freya, he is bitter, but he's also suspicious. It didn't make sense that they would hand them things (like coats and tablets) but leave out anything actually useful (like information on... well, anything).] The only ones we can trust here are ourselves.

[she nods, liking his style, and braces herself for the cold before pushing open the door.]

Well said. Well—those of us who are trustworthy. Can't be too careful there, either.

[she steps out into the snow, holding the door open. The wind fights her for it, howling so loudly that she has to raise her voice for it to carry, even though he's right there:]

Do you have a name?
