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.

[ His smile is a little strained. Her enthusiasm reminds him of some of the younger Suresh's naive rants. ]

Right. That's why I thought I'd reach out. From what I've been hearing, though, it would've been better to contact one of the doctors first. I just...I didn't want anyone to be missing it too badly.

...what's your name? I don't think I've talked to you directly before. I'm Zane. You're pretty new here, too, right?
domybest: (a ) i only looked)

The doctors?

[Uzuki lights up at that. She is rather new, has barely met even five people. Hearing that there are doctors here is definitely good news!]

[At the question, Uzuki looks a little surprised - mostly out of embarrassment, so she answers before she can ask further.] Oh - I'm sorry! Yes, my name is Uzuki Shimamura! It's nice to meet you! Sorry, I'm still trying to meet everyone and get all my introductions out of the way - But you said doctors, didn't you? I wasn't aware there was anyone like that! [That's wonderful news! Any good news in this situation would make her smile right now, but that especially makes her expression light up.] What kinds of doctors are there, do you know?
termineur: (Attentive)

[personal profile] termineur 2016-09-03 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I was looking through some guides to the town, and one of them mentioned at least a couple doctors. I'm not sure of the types, but I know one had trauma in the description. I think you can ask them questions if you have any. Uh...

[ There's a rustle as he clicks around, looking for what he'd been reading. ] Dr. Watson and Dr. Stein? And there's a Dr. Wilson, too. So we're not completely on our own.

[ He shakes his head, as if to clear it. ] Nice to meet you though, Uzuki! I'm not great with introductions myself. But we're all stuck here, so I'm trying to learn who's who. It's always nice to see a friendly face on the tablet, I think.
domybest: (b ) at the stage I dreamt of)

Dr. Watson, Dr. Stein, Dr. Wilson...

[Uzuki nods, fumbling around in her bag to retrieve a notepad to jot those names down in. It feels a little underhanded, but those are names she's sure will come in handy if trouble erupts.]

Thank you very much! [She's back to smiling, both at the praise and at the apparent niceness of her conversation partner.] Yes, it's nice to speak with someone polite and kind, as well! Especially in this kind of place... You never know what you're going to stumble across... I'm glad I spoke to you, though! I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for the owner of that medicine, I'm sure it's very important to them.
termineur: (idk)

Sure. Thanks.

[ He could send her the guide he'd found with all this information in it, but it wouldn't do anything for him. This way he could drip feed her info, if he needed her for anything. She'd be pretty useful in certain situations. ]

You be careful out there, won't you?

[personal profile] domybest 2016-09-04 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely!

[Probably. Hopefully. In the slimmest chance, but - she'll be fine. If there's one nice person, there's bound to be more!]

I wish you the best of luck in your search!
