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.
[ Jim relaxes when he sees something person-ish. None of the monsters he's encountered so far were realistic enough to pass as such. Even if the guy has bad intentions, he's no bigger than Jim. Jim can probably take him.
He eases his tablet out of his duffle and holds it up to show his own face. ]
I haven't found anything to make a fire out of yet. Or anything else useful.

could see these two either getting along amazingly or terribly tbh,
[The other figure is probably a bit shorter than Jim if anything, the mop of hair notwithstanding, given his younger age. He's just cautious, wary. But relaxing a bit more once he gets something of a better look to Jim, assuming the other doesn't have a weapon.
After all, if there's only so many buildings to take shelter in, is there really any surprise that others might happen across the same one to sleep and escape the weather?]
At the very least, it's shelter. We're not outside. There's blankets. We can manage if we have to without one, if we can't find supplies for a fire.
[Hiro's always been very uneasy around fire anyway, since the night of the expo. Even if it would be warmer and give more light.]
if anyone could accidentally on purpose blow up snowhell...
[ The flicker of the tablet shows a wry smile and relieved blue eyes set in a face only a smidge older than Hiro. It's faint, but he's still got his duffle over one shoulder and is using both hands to make the tablet/flashlight cooperate. Hiro's optimism is unfamiliar, but maybe catching a bit; just because the last dozen nights had been miserable didn't mean this one had to be. ]
Best thing to do is explore before we go to sleep. We might find a firestarter, or the house might have running water.
Hiro and Jim would manage. Somehow. With their combined level of sass and sarcasm. Oh yes.
Running water. The things you take for granted back home, right? I don't know if it's the weather messing with the pipes or this place just otherwise sucking that much, but honestly.
[Hiro rolls his eyes, some air puffing a little to play with some of his bangs as he gestures irritably with the hand holding the broom. This place was so frustrating, and he hasn't been here nearly so long as some of the others around.]
it would be adorable right up until everything was on fire
Running water, heat, food that's not in these weird... packaging... things. [ Jim ticks them off on his hands as he goes. ] I tried to tell whoever's running the place last time, but you know, they just weren't interested.
Everyone facepalms and asks who introduced these brats even.
Of course. That would be too convenient for them to listen and throw us a bone in a situation like this. Clearly. But...I'll help look around. See what we can find. Any food or supplies is better than none at least.
[Putting the broom down as he attempts to scan the room a little with the meager light of his tablet, taking more in now he isn't immediately distracted and on guard by Jim's presence.]
