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: DRUG PUSHING
What luck! You've found a bottle of medication...only, oh, it looks like it's a prescription for one of the other people trapped here with you. You have a lot of power in your hands now: you could do the right thing and give it back without a fight, demand a worthy trade to see how badly they want it, or auction it off to the highest bidder. They're not the only ones who could use a painkiller or an antidepressant, after all. If you don't need it for yourself, you're sure to be able to fetch a high price (or bank some high gratitude points) for it from someone.

TWO: CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS
After a long day of traveling, you reach into your bag to scrounge up some dinner but you find that all of your food has gone bad. Everything, including the rations you stocked up on just yesterday, is covered in a thick layer of mold. Even the packaged nonperishables are somehow spoiled. Your whole backpack reeks of rot, and nothing edible has been spared. Maybe you can restock tomorrow, but what if you're not the only one whose food has been tainted? And what about the meal you had for lunch just hours ago? Your stomach turns. You'd better take to the network to get to the bottom of this


Action Prompts
THREE: WRITING ON THE WALL
You've just settled into a building for the night with your traveling companion when you notice a message left somewhere on one of the walls. It's signed by a username you don't recall ever seeing before. It tells you discoveries and facts about the town you don't think are really real or should be followed. Tells you that they're heading in a direction they're convinced has the exit, and urge you to follow their lead. One of you thinks it's worth consideration. After all, why would anyone leave a message like this if they didn't mean it? But there are risks involved in chasing the assertions. Do you have the resources left to try?

FOUR: CORPSE PARTY
Just before lockdown, you and your traveling companion are about to seek shelter in the nearest building when you spot a huddled figure nearly buried in the snow. When you get a little closer, you see that it's a person wrapped tightly in a blanket. Neither of you recognizes them, but you can't be sure; the blanket covers their face. They seem to have succumbed to the elements, but it looks like they're still breathing! You manage to drag them into the building with you with seconds to spare. Good job, you've saved somebody's life! But, as you pull apart the blankets to check on your new companion, you realize that they're not a "somebody" at all... And you're locked in with it until morning.

I mean the empty bottle, not the pills.

Do what you want. I don't see a reason to try and change your mind.

I see. Well, your reputation doesn't matter to me either.


[But she does have an answer as to whether the people here are completely indifferent or not. Thanks.]

what the hell do they want the bottle for?

and you must be great at parties
charming all the girls
or all the boys
or both

so what does matter you, great sheik of indifference?

[ Well, this is insane and will probably get them both killed. But what risk isn't worth taking if you're immortal?

He will follow. What a terrible pair they make. ]

Awwww, but he's a such a colossal dirt bag....

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't ask.

[Yeah, as if she's answering that honestly. Sadly she doesn't like to lie, so have a mysterious, vague answer that's basically the text version of her signature hair flip.]

I wonder.

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
It is what it is, if you want the empty bottle you'll have to take it up with him.

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Exactly her thoughts. Best team? Best team.

Even if she is side-eyeing a cat being here. Animals don't seem to be a common occurrence here and, well. She's understandably cautious about critters that choose to follow her. This thing isn't an Incubator though (maybe) so she's fine with its presence for the moment.

After taking a picture of the message and bundling up (in a coat that isn't quite warm enough) she'll push the door open and head out into the snow, keeping her pace at one where the cat can easily keep up.]

Couldn't you just give it to me? Please?

[Well, you just went from vaguely interesting to someone to screw around with until he gets an answer on that, Homura. Congratulations!]

do you have some aversion to asking questions?

and wow
don't you sound cool?
i'm picturing you putting on sunglasses
walking away as an explosion goes off
the who starts playing in the background

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
You seem to be obsessed with asking them.

[Taking out witches does require a lot of explosive weaponry.... Not that she's going to confirm any of his smarm.]

Trying to provoke me won't get you an answer.
rubikscomplex: (childish | tongue)

[personal profile] rubikscomplex 2016-08-26 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
i've heard curiosity only kills cats
i'm in the clear

trying not to provoke you hasn't gotten answers
and this is more fun

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
No, sorry. I won't.

Pretty please?

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
How confident of you.

You'll get bored eventually.

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
No.

Pretty please with sugar on top?

[He is doing this, yes.]
rubikscomplex: (bored | innocent)

[personal profile] rubikscomplex 2016-08-26 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
well, y'know
even if it does
the whole no one stays dead thing
that's a thing

you'd be surprised what can interest me
so, let's come back to why you're doing this
we've established you're not a complete moron
if you're a bleeding heart
you're the kind that hides it
if you're looking for favors
you're doing a crap job
combo a/c?

[ See, this is exactly why he doesn't talk to mortals. They can be so touchy about these things.

The door closes behind the cat, whether Homura shuts it or not. He walks at her heel, as though he does this sort of thing all the time. ]

[personal profile] phaseshifter 2016-08-26 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Not touchy, either! Just a stickler for accuracy. As for my rations, um. I'm in the southwest? Near the fast food place. The food here is fine, if a little gross after it goes cold.

I mean, it's. Also about as far away from you as possible, so, um. Not so useful.

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I've heard that. Still, overconfidence leads to carelessness.

[Not that she really expects anyone to take her advice at this point.]

I'm neither.

[If this was a verbal discussion that response would be half-hearted at best, because she also doesn't expect him to stop bothering her.]

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[She isn't budging.]

No. This is a waste of time.

But I need the bottle, it's a matter of life and death!

[personal profile] perfero 2016-08-26 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Then take it up with him, not me.

Hey Snowhell Fam, I know one of you lost something really important. I don't want to cause a clamor about it, so let's assume for the sake of argument they're someone's glasses.

I found them out in the snow and you probably need them back if you want to continue functioning like normal. If you know what I'm taking about, hit me up and I'll give them back. If you don't, imagine me giving you something useless, which is what I'll do if you try anything dumb. Hope you like spam in a can.

I don't like this.

[kate shifts her weight from one foot to the other. she's not used to being the wet blanket of the group, but something about this is just not sitting right with her. the nagging voice in the back of her head says they need to get back soon.

she's not usually this cautious, that doesn't sit well with her, either, but she's used to following her gut instinct.]


We could come back when we have a fresher start, but going down this rabbit-hole now...

[she frowns. curiosity starts biting at her heels. what if, though, kate? aren't you a detective? don't you want to solve this case? curiosity and self-doubt. great.]

I just don't want to get locked out.
