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!
Can't I even try meet you halfway at least? I don't know that there's a lot to say from what I can tell in here so far. Who's with you? Gogo and the others? What am I supposed to do while you come find me then? Just sit here with my pretty much useless phone and handheld I guess. I think the food should last about a week though? But it wouldn't take that long, right?
[At least. He hopes not. There's still a pleading, an urgency there. Almost as if he won't really be relieved and believe this until he sees Tadashi in person. Because he probably won't. It's still too surreal for him right now. Hiro is fidgeting, nervous. He can't help it. He wants to run out and find Tadashi as soon as he can, but something's not right. His brother seems way too nervous and worried here, more than usual.]
It depends on how far away you are. Hopefully we can make it there in a few days. I know this doesn't make sense, but I need you to trust me. You need to go outside long enough to get a good description of where you're staying and what's in the immediate area. If there's a snowbank, I need to know what direction it's in.
[He takes a deep breath, shoulders slumping as he reaches up to massage the bunched muscles between his shoulder blades. Despite that, his tone becomes even more concerned at the mention of Gogo.]
Nobody you know. I'm with my friend Al and his brother along with some others we met along the way. Has Gogo gone missing?
[Yes. Yes he is heading out just in that hoodie and sneakers and shorts, outside just long enough to get a quick glance and relay the information Tadashi asks for.]
Al? But ah, no. No, She's fine. They're fine back home. As far as I know at least. Unless they just showed up here now like me or something.
[No. He is not going to mention Baymax. Yet. That can wait. Preferably forever in discussing the robot's last act if possible. Hiro is still crushed about it. He sighs, running a hand through his hair before glancing back to the tablet.]
[Tadashi lets out a relieved sigh -- good. If Gogo had gone missing, but hadn't shown up here... he would have started to fear the worst. Alphonse's talk about the Philosopher's Stone is still fresh in his mind, riding heavy in the pit of his stomach like a weight he can't shake every time he catches a glimpse of another hastily abandoned item in the houses they search every night.]
Good. Anyway...
[He subconsciously mimics his brother's nervous movement -- carding a hand back through his hair before tugging his baseball cap back into place.]
Al is a really good friend of mine here. He's not much older than you. You'll like him.
[They had discussed Hiro at length in the past. But always hoping that if Hiro ever met Al, it would be after this was all over.
Tadashi hesitates for a moment, scared for an instant of what he might hear. Then his expression softens as his concern for his family wins out over his fears.]
How've you been holding up? How's Aunt Cass? It's been two weeks now. I couldn't get any messages out.
Sure. If you say so. I guess it sounds like I'll meet him soon enough if he's going to come with you to find me. Which totally isn't making me feel like some useless damsel in distress or whatever, by the way.
[Seriously, bro. He's capable enough. Mostly. Besides obviously being totally dressed for warmer weather as the tablet trails over his body for a moment and he gives a sigh of his own. Debating. And still very confused. How much to tell Tadashi? Two weeks, he says? More like it has been months on Hiro's end of things. What would his brother even last remember if he really is somehow here? Wherever 'here' is, exactly. Hiro's still not entirely sure.]
She's fine. We're all fine. I mean, I'm still kind of cold from being outside in a hoodie and shorts, because it was hardly exactly winter back home and even then it doesn't get this bad.
[Is he being intentionally vague and trailing off there? Yeah, probably. But he'd much rather wait for a more personal conversation face to face.]
What about you? You're all freaking out about me being here, but it's not like if this place is that bad I shouldn't be worried about you going out in this?
