Network Prompts
ONE: HUNTING SEASON
You wake up in the morning to find that a new application has appeared on your tablet. It's labelled "SCAVENGER HUNT" and when you open it, you find a long list of items that, if the title is anything to go by, need to be collected. At first, the items seem rather innocuous; things like bottle caps, napkins, Scotch tape, mittens. As the list continues, though, the items become a little more interesting. Where are you going to find "one pint of type O- blood"? How does one collect a "cry for mercy"? Does the "human sacrifice" need to be human? Most importantly, what are you supposed to do with these items once you've collected them all?
Maybe you should check your list with the Network. Some folks might be willing to pool resources.
TWO: ONE, TWO, SKIP A FEW
Sometime yesterday, you noticed that a timer placed itself on the Network. Contacting the Admin about it provided no explanation, of course, and nobody's tablet buddy seems to have any answers. It started from zero and began counting upwards, seconds ticking away like lightning, but nothing was happening, so there was nothing to be done. Suddenly, however, you can't help but notice the count stutter and jump upwards to 99 hours in. And then, at 100, it stops and vanishes. As far as you can tell, nothing's changed, but it's disconcerting enough that you can't get it off your mind. Maybe someone else on the Network has some theories.
Action Prompts
THREE: WHAT WE DO WITH THE SHADOWS
You and your companion decided that, for whatever reason, this house was worth investigating. It took something unorthodox—like moving all the furniture to one place, illuminating certain segments of the room, reciting a message, or maybe something else—but by doing it, it seems you've invited another guest. It's a shadowy figure with no face and no discernible limbs, and it goes wherever you go, lingering behind you just so that you can only ever see it out of your peripheral vision. Your companion can see it well enough, though, and sometimes it follows them instead. It doesn't seem to be hostile, but can you know that for sure? Either way, lockdown has already fallen, and you're stuck with it through the night.
FOUR: WHO LET THE DOGS OUT?
You’ve just gotten comfortable for the night with your traveling companion when something odd happens. You hear an animal. A dog? A cat? A bird? Maybe the sound is coming from outside, or in the other room. Maybe you feel it brush or flutter past you without anything being there. Or maybe you even see it…just out of the corner of your eye, as it darts around a corner. You feel like maybe it’s trying to alert you to something, somehow. Or maybe you just really want to see if you can coax it out. Careful, though, get too close too quickly and you may aggravate it. As phantom as the animal may seem, the claw marks you receive for your trouble feel very real.

You're not sensitive.
no subject
i can totally fake sensitivity
no subject
If you can fake sympathy, why don't you do it more often?
Having as many people eating out of the palm of your hand as possible can only be helpful in a situation like this.
[At least, that's how Amber sees it. She's not one to waste her time being sweet when it won't get her anywhere...but in Norfinbury, it seems like having allies is the best way to ensure survival. Especially considering you can't predict what new horror is going to pop up on any given day.]
no subject
there should have been emmys for that acting
i almost pretended to cry
and it gets boring being that fake
i make myself a useful dick
people come to me for things that matter
not a shoulder to cry on
no subject
[So she's heard, anyway. Not hard to get answers and stories about all of House's escapades.]
no subject
heart, thigh, hands, and shoulder
not the gut
no subject
[Only when you get caught talking behind someone's back it is.]
no subject
what were we talking about?
oh, yes
you trying to fake your way into allies because you feel your intelligence is insufficient to overcome the relative detriments of your personality
i mean
you are a cutthroat bitch, apparently
who'm i to argue?
no subject
I only used that as my username because you're the one who started calling me that in the first place.
[Oh, but that's right. House doesn't know that yet, does he?]
So I guess there wouldn't be any point of you arguing against yourself.
But then, you did also give yourself the username hotstud.
Maybe you should reconsider your assessments based on usernames.
no subject
and you liked it enough to keep it
or is it "ironic"?
and i could be into racehorses and rum
no subject
Although your cripplingly evident self-loathing might balance it out.
So what do I know? I don't gamble.
[At least not on horses.]
It's a good conversation starter.
And if people are going to end up calling me a bitch anyways, I'd rather own it.
That, and it's boring to just go with @avolakis or some other version of my name.
[Sorry Wilson...you're not too imaginative.]
no subject
so that you can't be hurt when they throw it in your face
sorry, who's the one with the cripplingly evident self-loathing?
i do approve of your desire not to be completely lame, though
unlike some people
[Definitely looking at Wilson, here.]
