Network Prompts
ONE: LISTEN, DOLLFACE
It's no secret that dolls have been the talk of the town, lately. People have been finding them all over Norfinbury: some rag dolls that seem particularly relevant to the Prophet, and some that are unsettling without the apparent connection. Still, it's surprising when you found a doll that looks like another one of the residents. You turn to the network, feeling unsettled, unsure what this could mean. Maybe you aren't alone, or maybe someone has a theory? Come to think of it, you're pretty sure that someone else mentioned finding something similar.

TWO: TIPTOES.EXE IS HERE
Sometime today you find an SD card that downloaded an app to your tablet. It's titled HIDEANDSEEK and has the picture of a doll as its icon. When you open it, it seems like it's a game to play against a digital opponent: a doll. The game appears to have two stages. In the first stage, the doll hides, and you need to travel around the house (is it just you, or does the layout of this house seem to always be the house you're in when you open it?) to find the doll. In the second stage, you need to hide yourself from the doll, and listen for its movements so it can't catch you.

If it does catch you, it will be holding a knife. The screen goes red and the game crashes for the rest of the night. Somewhere on your body, a gash appears. It's nothing fatal, but maybe you should talk to someone about this on the Network.


Action Prompts
THREE: STRANGE THINGS DID HAPPEN HERE
The house that you've found seems promising in terms of useful items to take with you, so you and your traveling companion have spent all day scouring the house for items. At first, everything's fine. Neither of you find or feel anything out of the ordinary. Lockdown approaches, you go to sleep without any additional trepidation...but an odd creaking noise fills your dreams. It gets louder in your ears until you can't stand it anymore and snap awake. When you open your eyes, it's there hanging just above you, swinging in a nonexistent wind: a doll with a broken neck, a noose tied around its neck. It looks just like you.

FOUR: LOOK BEHIND YOU
Maybe you're not unsettled by dolls--and maybe neither is your companion--but one thing is for certain: this house you've been locked into for the night has an odd, oppressive feeling to it. Maybe it's just because it's full of dolls, though they all seem ordinary enough. Nothing strange happens at first, but as the night goes on...you finally notice: wasn't that porcelain baby doll on the other side of the room the last time you were in it? Didn't you turn that other one to face away from where you were sleeping?

The more the night goes on, the more obvious the movements become--sometimes, you even swear you hear the pitter patter of little feet. But nothing ever happens when you're watching. Maybe it's just your imagination. Or maybe, you realize in frustration, your traveling companion is trying to scare you. But is your paranoia worth the confrontation if it is? And will you even believe them if they swear their innocence?

[One: @epsilon | text]

So who's the bright guy that made a doll of me and put the symbol for alpha on it? Wrong guy, people.

At least they got the face right.


[Get him to switch to video or audio. You might hear someone you know.]

[Three]

[Waking up to find a doll of yourself hanging above you is not how Church wanted to wake up. Especially since someone went through the trouble of making it look like you. He doesn't even know what it feels like to be killed like that, but he touches his neck anyways to make sure that nothing was actually physically wrong. Maybe it was some omen.

Maybe the person he's traveling with is being a dick.]


What the fuck, man! That's not funny!

SCREAMS; three

Yes. Because when things are funny, people laugh, instead of getting mad, and it is -- everybody has a good time.

[ Caboose's voice is even drowsier than usual, since he's still half asleep. Some people might be startled into full wakefulness by Church-esque yelling, but he's used to it. It's pretty much soothing.

Meaning yeah he's not even opening his eyes to see what's up. A+++.

:D somehow i picked the same pb as the other church despite me not knowing them

[personal profile] mylittlesniperrifle 2016-11-24 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[... Yup. Expected that one. With an annoyed sigh Church stands up and pulls the doll down before nudging Caboose with his foot.]

When the fuck did you have time for arts and crafts? And why did you hang it up like that?

[He gets the whole looking like your other bff who happens to be named Church, but really? This just screams you want him dead. Probably.]
blueteamsproblem: (I think it was mister jonkins)

[personal profile] blueteamsproblem 2016-11-24 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhhhmmmmm.

[ He stares blankly - is there any other way for Caboose to stare? - for a few seconds before offering a shrug. ]

I... do not know. Or remember doing any of those things. but I probably had a good reason! Oh my gosh I am so talented.

[ Seriously, that doll is so neat. Maybe he'll be able to keep it, and then there will be three Churches to be his Very Best Friends Forever! And he thought having two was as good as it gets. ]

[Caboose. You're the only one here he's worried about getting him killed, but he knows enough that you really, really suck at lying.]

So it wasn't you. [...... Well fuck.] Did we check to see if there was anyone in here other than us? If not then we've got killer dolls and no priest.
blueteamproblems: (SO I FIRED AGAIN)

SCREAMING; one

@fuckyou; voice

Sheesh, they can't even tell us apart? That's just sad.

[Come on, they're totally different people! How could anyone ever make that mistake?]
mylittlesniperrifle: (11)

Oh hi there

[personal profile] mylittlesniperrifle 2016-11-28 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha. We look like twins to these idiots here. [Can he request a new face?]

Maybe it's a voodoo doll. Because if it is, be fucking glad Caboose didn't get it.
