Network Prompts
ONE: TIME TO CHECK WEBMD
You've found the pharmacy, which is really convenient, since you're not feeling that great. Actually, you're feeling terrible. Maybe you have a fever, maybe you're coughing up blood, maybe you're vomiting... Whatever it is, you should probably try to get some medicine for it. Well, if you can figure out what it is. Maybe someone on the network can help you out? Alternately, you know exactly what you have--but for whatever reason, the medicine here isn't something you can easily understand. You have to choose between a couple of options, and you don't know the difference. Hopefully someone on the network can tell you which will heal you and which will probably kill you.
TWO: NOT SO HELPFUL AVATARS
Every tablet has the option for a customizable avatar that will talk to you and keep your tablet in order. Maybe you set it up, maybe you never checked it. Either way, it keeps popping up unrequested and being sort of... Odd. Flickering, talking in strange, mechanical voices, offering advice that's unhelpful at best and actively harmful at worst... Maybe it's even telling the entire network some things you've been doing you'd rather everyone didn't know.
Time to call tech support. Unfortunately, the best option is other people on the network. Good luck.
Action Prompts
THREE: SCHOOL DAYS
You've ended up in the elementary school. Maybe you're grabbing more food, maybe you're exploring. Either way, this place is creepy; the atmosphere is the sort that gets the hair on the back of your neck rising (potentially metaphorically, if you don't have hair or a neck). It's not long before strange things start happening. The sound of running and screaming children, doors slamming in far off or nearby hallways, pianos playing... What's going on? It's hard to tell what's really happening from what isn't happening. Maybe someone who's also exploring has some idea.
FOUR: SUPPLY SCRAMBLE
You've just walked into a house, and look, there's fresh fruit sitting right out on the counter! How long has it been since you've had some of that? It'll definitely help provide some much-needed vitamins and maybe it will ward off scurvy and the like. There's even more than one piece!
...And there's more than one person here, too. So, what are you going to do? Are you willing to share, or are you prepared to stab someone over a pear? Time to find out just how badly you want that food.

Harry Hart / Kingsman
[There's always a chance for grievous bodily harm when one is trapped in what is, quite frankly, a snowier version of Hell. Harry is going to be tight-lipped about how this particular injury happened to him (possibly because it occurred in an embarrassing manner, or possibly not), and he'd planned on treating it himself. No need to get others involved, he had thought.
However, once he'd stumbled into the pharmacy and all but collapsed, head swimming and nauseous from pain, he realized he couldn't do it alone.
So, reluctantly, he resorts to the network. He appears on screen looking pale and quite unlike his usual well-put-together self.]
Good afternoon. I'm afraid I've found myself in the rather uncomfortable position of requesting help.
[His voice is strained, but retains a polite level of professionalism.]
I think I've broken my arm. [He knows he has, actually; he'd heard the snap.] I'd set it myself but I can't do it one-handed, so I would be very grateful to anyone who can offer some assistance.
As luck would have it, I've made it to the pharmacy. We should find everything we need here.
[And one last thing, before he's done:]
The sooner the better. Thank you.

It's a relief, then, that he notices a new message on the network and embrace the distraction. That relief turns to worry when he realizes what the post is about, but he's quick to respond. ]
Hey, I think I'm pretty close. Hang on, okay?
[ Then, because he's compelled toward honesty: ]
I've never set an arm before, though.
no subject
[He's thankful for any help, however inexperienced.
There is a very long pause, though, and then:]
You aren't squeamish, are you?
sorry for being such a slowpoke!
No, no, I'm good. I think I can see the pharmacy up ahead.
audio: @compass5565
Guess you're in luck, setting bones is one thing I know pretty well.
You were seriously gonna do it yourself? That takes some cojones.
no subject
He's very embarrassed, if you're wondering.
Still, he appreciates her response, and can't help but crack a smile.]
I've never felt that actions born of necessity were accurate indications of one's cojones, but I appreciate the sentiment -- and the help. Thank you.
no subject
I dunno, curling in a fetal position and twitching is an option. Might even get you more takers from the people who wanna be all heroic.
