Network Prompts
ONE: DISTORTION
Something is wrong with the video feed. You're not sure what it is, but it seems that whenever anyone tries to post to the Network using video, their faces warp and distort like they're being ripped through with static. Odd, since it's only the people who show up blurry, and not the surroundings. Maybe you want to test it out with more people to see if everyone is experiencing the same problem, or maybe you just want to toss theories around about what the issue might be, but either way you turn to the Network for answers. Fortunately, the text and audio features are working normally, so you can still have conversations with the others without any problems.
TWO: STRAIGHT TO DETENTION
You had to head to the school in order to grab some more rations, but before you head out for the day you decide to explore around a little more. You've heard that people have had success in the past connecting with the Prophet here, so you head to Samantha's classroom and sit at her desk. When you speak up, though, trying to make contact, it's not the Prophet who answers.
Instead, you hear the sound of a sharp crack and there's a sting on the back of your hands, like you've been whacked by a ruler.
Raise your hand! If you don't follow classroom rules, I'll have to give you detention.
A shadow flicks behind you, the looming outline of the teacher that reprimanded you disappears before you can get a good look. The problem? You can't seem to find the exit to the classroom. Your sense of direction warps every time you get to where it should be, causing you to become disoriented and turned around. The neatly-lined desks suddenly seem to form a maze. If you want to skip detention, you may need a little help from the Network. Maybe someone can guide you out.
Action Prompts
THREE: NO SOLICITING
You're running out of time. You finally found a building you can stay in for the night...but it seems that someone else has found it first. And this someone else appears, for whatever reason, unhappy with the idea of letting you in to share the space. You know there's plenty of room for the both of you, and you don't have enough time to duck into another building for safety. You keep glancing nervously at the time on your tablet. It's cold, and you don't have much more time to argue before you're stuck out here.
If talking isn't going to get you much farther, maybe you can offer something that will make it worth their while. Or maybe you can even force the issue. You probably have something on you that you can use as a weapon if you're not confident that your own strength will do the trick.
FOUR: HOUSE AT THE END OF THE LANE
The house that you and your traveling companion have stumbled across has seen better days. As soon as you step through the door, it's easy to see what's happened. Everything has blackened and burned--every object and decoration charred to oblivion, a snapshot of some family's unwitting last moment together. The only proof that it had ever been occupied at all is the creamy white silhouettes that light up the kitchen wall: the perfect outline of a mother, father, and young child holding hands as they pray together before the meal they'd never eat.
Maybe you can still find some useful items stowed away inside the cupboards.

[ Not helping, Steph. ]
But no, this has happened before. I mean, usually there's other stuff going on, but still.
no subject
[ Maybe it isn't that helpful, but at least it's making him laugh. That must count for something. ]
What kind of other stuff?
no subject
Like, personalized anomalies stalking us, losing our identities, that sort of thing.
no subject
Really? I don't understand half of what you said, or at least I've never experienced anything like it, but- What kind of place is this?
[ Oh, he gets the general idea, that this place might not be the nicest one, but Stephanie's response paints a kind of grim picture. ]
no subject
[ She's very matter-of-fact, cheery even. It's practically coping. ]
Welcome to Norfinbury.
no subject
[ It sounds to him that this Norfinbury, wherever it is, is a difficult place to live. Great.
Still, he intends to make the best of it, if he can. ]
Thanks. I'm James Wilson. [ Formalities don't seem terribly important right now. ]
What's your name?
[ Might as well start making some connections here. ]

For whatever it's worth, coming from a near stranger, I'm glad you're not dead.
no subject
Well thanks. I'm pretty happy with it myself. I've been dead before a few times, it's the pits.
no subject
That's a very mild way of putting it, but yes, it is.
no subject
I mean, that second part is pretty limited to Norfinbury, but it does kinda suck.
