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.
Nope, too late for that. I have officially decided to give a shit and I'm not taking the turd back now.
[What is with her? At least John gave up on the idiot move once he came back and told him the business. Does she need to die first to get it through her head, or would she just keep going? Probably would, from what she's said, and the thought irritates him more.]
Isn't there anyone you'd try to stop if you were in my position? Some stubborn asshole tells you, oh what's it matter, I'll come back anyway, and runs off down dipshit boulevard to the danger zone, but the whole thing's completely avoidable if they would just listen for half a second and exercise some basic caution.
[There is. Of course there is. If Madoka was here things would be different.
Sort of. She'd still be risking her life, but it would be to keep the girl right in front of her safe instead of trying to return to her. Either way, people would still think she's a reckless idiot.
... That both of them are reckless idiots, because it would be just like Madoka to run off and do something dangerous in the name of protecting her friends. That's all hypothetical, though. Madoka isn't here and she is, which is the entire problem.
She doesn't like lying, so she opts for pointedly not answering his question. Her hands are clenching into fists and her step is getting more determined, though.]

their issues are just grating against each other like crazy and I love it
[And Davesprite heaves a deep, frustrated sigh. He's not surprised at this juncture, not after the other questions she's dodged, but it sure doesn't ameliorate the situation.]
I'm not going to stop following you just because you decided to stop talking.
[He'll be her stubborn tagger-on until the bitter end, if he has to. Doesn't matter that he doesn't know her; he didn't save John's ungrateful ass just to go nope, never mind, go get yourself killed when some other teen tries it on him. He'd be responsible. They found the message together, no one else, and if he tries to pass it off she'll be long gone before anyone else can do anything.]
[He'd stop her if he had the means, but what can he do? Tangle her feet in his tail? That would get awkward, and stupid, and it's not something he wants to do. Instead as she slows he matches her pace, falling into a spot beside her.]
Not the point.
[He means less than other people, he doesn't say.]
Even if I turn back now, it's not going to stop being dangerous for you.

[Well, that's a bit of a hypocritical answer. That or he secretly wants to see what that message is about, and letting her take the lead absolves him of any responsibility if things go south. Or rather, the I told you so method of doing things.
Hey, for all she knows he just really likes saying I told you so.]
[His feathers ruffle and resettle without conscious decision.]
It's not me I'm worried about.
[There's a stiff edge to his voice.]
Maybe if we weren't nerfed to shit and you had some crazy, jacked up super powers I wouldn't care, but that's not what we're dealing with.
[Everyone back home has plenty of that, ways to defend themselves or the others who need protecting, better than he can. And it's not like they can fight the monsters here, even if he had his sword still. But if he can just out-stubborn her...]
[She decides to remain silent in regards to that remark about crazy, jacked up super powers. For one, it's none of his business. Two, he's right, she's 'nerfed' anyway so the fact that she had them doesn't matter right now.]
No, we're in a situation that calls for a sense of self-preservation. [It might be rude and hypocritical of herself to point this out, but....
[Which is pretty much why he doesn't mention his own. That, and it's pretty easy to guess one he's lost when the bird boy never flies higher than a couple inches off the ground.]
[Instead he stares at Homura, hiding incredulity behind his sunglasses. Did she seriously just flip her hair at him? What does she think this is, an anime?]
[He sighs.]
Can we maybe not argue about who has the most depressing self view?
[They can both be total hypocrites, that's fair. She is also comfortable letting an awkward silence fall around them. Most silences that involve her tend to be awkward, no getting around that.]

it's a good 'Homura pls' icon
['Trying to save everyone is ridiculous,' she'd like to say. 'You'll only hurt someone who actually matters to you.'
But she doubts he'd listen.]
'Homura pls' is a good emotion
Nope, too late for that. I have officially decided to give a shit and I'm not taking the turd back now.

lbr it's the best emotion when dealing with her

fingers crossed for time traveler trauma bonding
... Not that she'd be able to do much in this state aside from be really angry, but yes.
Eventually she slows down a little, more because of the cold and the snow than anything. Her heels were not made for this weather.]
... Are you at all worried about yourself?
[She's starting to wonder that. If he's concerned this is going to be dangerous, self-preservation should kick in, right?]
if we both make it in I would seriously love CR in game
Not the point.
[He means less than other people, he doesn't say.]
Even if I turn back now, it's not going to stop being dangerous for you.
Yessssss please
Hey, for all she knows he just really likes saying I told you so.]
But it'll be safer for you. [Obviously.]
