Network Prompts
ONE: BUMP IN THE NIGHT It's dark out, and congratulations - you're inside! What's not inside, you might ask? Monsters. Shadowy monsters that have surrounded whatever house you've taken shelter in. They can't get in... or can they? From time to time, the doors and the walls creak as if under an unbearable pressure.
Who can sleep when it's like this? Maybe you should take to the network to find a distraction. Or maybe someone has advice for getting rid of those things.
TWO: BRING OUT YOUR DEAD We mourn the loss of those who have died in the time between the last announcement and this one:
...is that your name on that list? It might be. Maybe you should let the others know you're not actually dead. Or, you know, if you happen to spot the name of someone you know and love on there, it might be time to ask around and see if anyone knows what happened to your dearly departed...
Action Prompts
THREE: KYRIE ELEISON You've found yourself in a small chapel, complete with bolted-down pews, an altar devoid of symbols, and stained glass windows depicting various saints. It's quiet... one might even say dead quiet. Which is a really awful pun to be making, considering if you follow the stairs down to the basement you'll find a morgue.
Explore to your heart's content, but you'll be forced out at 7 PM. Hopefully you don't find any unfortunately familiar faces among the dead.
FOUR: LIGHTS OUT Against all odds, you've managed to make it to shelter for the night. You pull the door shut behind you and turn to look at your surroundings - and that's when you see it. A ... person. Is it a person? It's hard to tell, because a moment later, you're plunged into darkness.
...better hope that's another unfortunate visitor to Norfinbury you've been locked in with, and not something more threatening.
[ steve makes a face at his tablet when he sees what she's called him, and then is very glad that he's switched from video to text. sorry, gaige, that epithet's been used for evil back in steve's world. ]
Vault hunting, huh? I don't think I know what exactly that entails, but it sounds exciting.
I'm Captain Steve Rogers. US military, if you know what that is.
[ let's not get into the whole "captain america" thing right now. or maybe ever. it might be nice to see who he is without the shield. ]
It wasn't and I am so mad because its so perfect.....
[ On her end, she's oblivious of course. Happily tapping away on her tablet. ]
Eh, pretty straight forward. Hunt treasure, kill bad guys, got those sweet dollar bills. The usual stuff. Guess it's a bit like mercenary work?
Wow, damn that sounds official. Yeah we don't really have america anymore but I hang out with some military dudes a bunch? If that counts. Oh and nice to meet you and stuff.
All sorts of stuff? Most of the time its just guns. SooooOOOOooo many guns.
Nah this is pretty normal for me, don't sweat it.
Oh hhh man that's like ancient history now I guess, are you sure?
Like, idk, I dropped out of school a little so this is just what I got from high school and they were like super biased about it? and there haven't been governments for like ages. Space colonizations kinda makes a "government" impossible. But I've never been to earth, we left there like ages ago.
But the short of it is that there was the first corporate war? And they took over from governments, like fought them and then fought each other, yeah it was pretty messy. Mostly you'll find planets are like owned by corporations in particular, or they'll change hands, or like will have shares in particular planets. They freaking run everrrrything, and they're all rich jerks. Well, most of them.
But yeah that was like forever ago? So don't sweat it dude.
Unless I just did that thing where like I told you the future and it'll be a self fulfilling prophecy and by like trying to avoid it you'll cause it to happen
but its probably fine
steve was bucky's psycho child once upon a time, he deserves to have the tables turned
Guns, really? I was expecting... I don't know. Jewels, or money, or art.
[ hold on while steve processes all of this. corporations going to war with america? corporations owning whole planets? steve rogers does not like the sound of this, he does not like it one bit. ]
Yeah, that's not happening where I come from.
[ he'll make sure of it!!!! ]
Where did you go after Earth? My best friend was kind of a sci-fi nerd back when we were younger, he'd get a kick out of hearing we made it to different planets.
gunna fight everything steve, everythiiiing, especially when they are twice her size
Uhhh, I guess that too? Money, guns, eridium. The big prizes, the vaults? What everyone wants out of those is ancient alien tech. That's what my friends are hunting at the moment.
Oh man, we've colonized so many planets I can't even remember which one was first. Whole galaxies are colonized now, not just a few planets. Humans are everywhere in space, jumping between planets, huge fuck off space ports, the whole deal that you see in all those old movies.
I grew up on a planet called Eden-5, it's super colonized, went to school there and it's where my dad still is, but I live on Pandora now. It's in what they call the borderlands of planets, right on the edge of like "civilized" space. It's an untamed, rough sort of place, but it's the place to be if you're a vault hunter.

i think i like it better this way tbh
Nice to meet you too, Gaige. Sorry it has to be under these conditions.
What happened to America, where you're from?
poor steve u do not deserve this psycho child who is going to become dependant on you
Nah this is pretty normal for me, don't sweat it.
