TEST DRIVE MEME

If you'd like to apply to Snowblind and would like to test the waters first or get a sample set up for your application, this meme is for you! We've even provided some prompts for you to use if you want (but feel free to make up your own). Here's how it works.
✭ Reply to this entry with a character you're considering apping into the game. You can include the name of your character and the fandom in your subject line.
✭ Comment around to others on the meme, whether you're in the game already or not.
✭ Now you have a sample ready for your application!
✭ So go reserve and apply when reservations and applications are open.
✭ Seriously, do it.


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.

[That claim has House raising a brow. Is the guy misinformed, or...?]

And you're the one who needs it. I want to know I'm getting what I paid for, too, before I let someone I've never seen before into the house.

I already told you what I have. It would be stupid to lie when I'm making an offer.

You're the only one who might be lying right now! Plus, I'm not even going in your house!
rubikscomplex: (neutral | looking up)

Everybody lies. And you could be some hulking bro with a machete who decides you want my meds without trading for real.

Don't be that bro, bro. Show me the pills you've got and who I'm looking for.

[House is thankfully spared Raph's loud uuuuugh and throwing of his tablet, because the turtle hung up after the doctor's demand.

This is stupid. He doesn't need this guy's help. Dr. Porno probably doesn't even have the meds. He might be able to just take these, even though they were on one of Donnie's lists of things turtles can't have.

After about a minute and a half, House gets a video message.

Here. You don't need to see my face.

[The screen shows a bottle of pills, with one pulled out for identification (a capsule, half pink and half red).]

Embarrassed? If you're coming to see me we are going to have to look at each other. I'm a doctor. Trust me. I've seen a lot of weird shit. Have you ever watched an eye explode? Super cool. Super gross.

No, I haven't watched an eye explode. What kind of maniac are you? [That exasperated question (followed by another coughing fit) doesn't actually need answer.]

You're not gonna see me. You're gonna put the pills at a drop-off location and I'll get them and leave what you want.

You're going to great lengths to avoid being seen, Not-Kujo. I don't think I want to help you without a peek now.

[Not that he could have helped in the first place. Details.]

Do you always try and get pictures of the kids you're trying to meet up with? Seriously, dude, it's starting to get kinda creepy.

Do you always put this much effort into not being seen? Are you a superhero? Are you the Invisible Man?

... Yeah. [Yeah, sure, whatever.] Let's go with superhero.

Gosh! Now I gotta ask for your autograph and your superhero name. Don't leave me hangin', bro! What am I going to tell the papers when you rescue me from the Joker? Who should I say swooped in?

Who says I'm gonna save you? I'm still waiting for you to show me the meds I asked for.

[Just going to delay and deflect.]

What kind of superhero is that? Aren't you guys supposed to be all about rescuing everybody?

I'm more about punching aliens in the face. [Despite the horrible wheezing, it's pretty obvious he's perked up slightly at the idea of alien-punching.]

Hanging out a lot in Area 51?

New York. [If he sounds bitter about it, that's just because of the next part.]

You don't need to go looking for aliens when the city's full of Kraang.
rubikscomplex: (srs | considering)

[personal profile] rubikscomplex 2015-09-01 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, House would be bitter if he had to live in New York, too. It's an obligation to feel that way as a New Jersey-an, though.]

Kraang. Is that what the kids are calling dealers? Promise they're not aliens, just druggies.
