✠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: 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.

Dr. Amber Volakis | House M.D.
Anyone have a beating and bloody heart they'd be willing to spare?
Consider it a contribution to medical science if sating curiosity isn't a good enough incentive.
I'd use mine, but I don't have the proper tools or extra arms necessary to perform an extraction.
prompt three
[Staring down at the shadowy...potential anomaly after it appears, there's tension all throughout Amber's body. None of it reaches her face. Her eyes are calculating, almost suspicious, like she's trying to figure out everything about it from a cursory glance. She can't, of course, but that doesn't mean she's not going to try.]
Not what I expected when we moved the furniture. Think it's upset we threw off the feng shui?

Claire Temple | Daredevil (TV)
seriously, think about what you're doing. If the next item on your list requires a scalpel to acquire it, maybe you should reconsider. We don't even know what this is getting us, but considering where we are, do you really think it's going to be anything good?
anyway, mine's at 'a dram of black tar heroin' so i guess i'm screwed.
--
action: four
[It sounds like a dog, bark feeble, like it's in pain. And that's what spurs Claire into action; she's not going to let some poor pup bite it because she was too scared of what it might look like.
She sees it, a shadow at the corner of her eye. In times like these she misses Matt dearly, misses how easily he would have been able to tell exactly what was wrong with the dog, just by listening to its heartbeat, or the rhythm of its walk. She can't - but she'll be okay.
She turns slowly towards the dog, seeing it more fully now. It doesn't look real, a little ethereal, shimmering in the shadows, but there's blood coming down its hind leg, and Claire takes a deep breath, steels herself.
She's dealt with more skittish.]
Do you wanna help? Get me the bandages in my pack.
[She's not looking away from the dog as she speaks, voice low and soft. She's made a bunch of bandages, tearing up hand towels and shirts that didn't fit her for it, and she just wants to see if she can - if she can.
She crouches, holding a hand out as she starts shuffling forward, slowly, slowly, slowly. No need to scare it into violence.]

Undertaker | Kuroshitsuji
How curious... I wonder what that was all about?
[The attached voice sounds like it's far, far too casual about the situation. It's also ambiguously 'old' sounding, with a distinctly London working class accent.]
Action: Three
[Undertaker keeps trying to tilt his tablet this way and that, as if he might catch a glimpse of the shadow behind him from the reflection off it's surface despite the thick bangs that fall into his face. He's become entirely distracted by the task, giving up any hope of sleep as the minutes tick by and he just keeps switching positions, whether it's flopping over onto his back on the floor to force it from following behind him, or getting up to pace the area.
For the moment, he's settled with his back against a wall and his legs bent up nearly to his chin, device resting on his knees. It's only a matter of time before he cocks his head at his current
victimcompanion and voices his thoughts.]It's sort of endearing isn't it? I think it's taken a liking to one of us, hee hee.

Guybrush Threepwood | The Secret of Monkey Island
Hey! How are you all doing?
I need a necklace of type-O blood and a pint of human fingers.
[Pause]
Wait. No, reverse that. A necklace of human fingers and a pint of blood...
Gee, that seems like a lot.
Action: 3
[Guybrush has spent most of the evening shoving the furniture from one wall to another on a hunch.
Sure enough, behind a couch is a symbol on the floor. He kneels, pulls a severed hand from his pants and presses it to the symbol with the ease of someone who's done this sort of thing before.
So far, so good....
When he looks up and sees the faceless shade, barely perceptible in the shadows, he mewls slightly.]
Aw, come on, what now?

Alice | Virtue's Last Reward
What kind of crap is this? Who would want half this garbage--some kind of cretin? I'm not doing it. I *suggest* that you don't do it either, it'd just be trouble.
Not that I can stop you.
Action 4
[It's always just out of sight. A flapping of wings that she can't quite pinpoint. Even if she can feel the brush of wings just on her back... Alice just goes to a wall and leans against it so the animal can't sneak up on her.]
No quick movements, now. Whatever the hell this is the last thing we want is it to be startled.

i dont remember if i clicked somewhere or what
but is there a visual im missing here? it stopped

so yeah help a guy out
#4 action
werewolves not swearwolves[ It's taking Matt a while to get used to the whole 'having to turn his head' to get his radar sense to work. He can kinda tell there's some kind of dog hiding behind an upturned table. Animals in snow hell are probably not a great sign... but he approaches it anyway. No fear and all that. ]
Hey there, little guy... [ He shushes, holding his hands out while he crouches down. The "dog" might not look right, but it smells and acts like one, almost. ] Where'd you come from, huh?

Vorin | Battle Beasts
[Some (Merk, for instance, in the dry and cynical voice he knew so well) might question the choice to reveal his...."unique" biology to the human populaton of Norfinbury. Vorin himself thought it made little difference to delay an outcome that felt inevitable. Food and shelter were limited, after all, as was the ability to travel far or fast. The others would cross paths with him eventually...would see him for what he was. Better to face fate on his own terms.]
This isn't what came to mind when I read the term "scavenger hunt". Bottle caps and paper clips, shoelaces, something called a "yoh-yoh"....
[A pause.]
And the femur bone of a newborn infant. What possible use could that have?
[At least the Dread Weapons were absent from this bizarre list. One took silver linings where they could be found, Vorin believed, and he absolutely did not need the fear of "admin" knowing about such incredibly powerful, incredibly dangerous artifacts to gain the knife-edge of confirmation.]
three | action
[Vorin's gaze is flat and hard with wary suspicion and a caged sort of anger, both thinly masked by the terrible patience of a hunter poised to spring. Armor creaks as gauntleted hands curl into fists. His gold eyes track the shadow-creature's presence without pause, as though daring it to try something more ambitious than hovering around his newest companion and being creepy.]
I don't know about you, but the idea of sleeping the night through while this...thing....hangs around seems ill-advised.

Jesse Finch | Original
ayyy alright so creepy fuckin list right
i've got... i think all i got left is a tongue that tells no lies
do they mean like an actual tongue, like...
also key note: impossible, because i'm pretty sure everybody ever in this place has lied at least once
three
[ Jesse is the best at trying weird things. Or at least he likes to think so. After a whole night of playing random tunes on the shitty little recorder he found, he's somehow managed to summon this... shadow person. Said shadowy person is just standing behind him, behind the couch, looking down at him.
Not that he knows it. He's too busy playing the Jurassic Park theme terribly on the recorder because he's pretty sure the stranger across from him is going to eventually say something about it.
The shadowy figure's gonna just slowly... reach to pull the beanie off of Jesse's head. Centimeter by centimeter. ]

Dirk Strider | Homestuck
Is anyone else as appalled as I am about this scavenger hunt bullshit?
It's like the collaborative Frankenstein monster between a spunky soccer mom trying to trick her no good brats into picking up useless garbage, like the act itself might save the planet, and a teenaged girl's first maiden voyage into her Hot Topic phase.
Bottle caps, used napkins, and the still beating heart of a seasoned warrior? Well, if we need a knife to extract said heart, we could use the edge that went into producing this list.
While I'm at it, anyone have a spare "Eye of a Sinner"? Technically speaking, I have double the requirements, but I'm currently using both of mine.

Ritsu Kageyama | Mob Psycho 100
This is in regards to the new "Scavenger Hunt" application on the tablet, but...
I'm not very concerned with finding all the items listed at this moment in time. Does anyone know what they're supposed to be gathered for? Where do we take them if we collect them all?
Though I doubt anyone is going to be able to find some of these...
[Not without a good amount of trouble, anyway.]
Prompt 3
[Well, something was following him. That was great.]
[Apparently all it took was sliding a coffee table out of the way of a cabinet into a chalk-marked section of the floor. Not really a mistake on Ritsu's part, but not exactly intentional, either. There hadn't even been anything in the cabinet of use. What a waste of a move.]
[Still, he was staying calm, calmer than a thirteen-year-old with a shadow following him (and not his partner, apparently) should really be. On the inside, he was on guard, keeping himself alert, ready to move, but still keenly aware his actions would likely not be enough to stop whatever this thing is, esper or not. What even is it? It bothered him that he couldn't get a good look at the creature, and decided at long last, while poking through another area with his compatriot, to bring it up bluntly.]
Can you see it?
Sherlock Holmes | Sherlock
[Sigh. Sigh.]
Nothing happened. That's boring. Try again, make it interesting, I've been here for six hours and already I can see why people throw themselves at the anomalies in droves. At least it breaks up the monotony.
Also @jwatson I gave you until the countdown ended, which was generous, and you still haven't contacted me.
[He's annoyed, he even made the username easy for Watson to guess it was him. Postcode W1C 2DZ, number 309, the Stradivarius shop in Oxford Street. Violins. London. Could he have spelled it out more clearly?]
