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.

[~~not quite a guinea pig, but how about a rat instead?~~]

[Freya had tried to listen quietly at the front door when she'd heard someone's voice, but quickly realizes she's failed at stealth this time. She swears under her breath, pushes the door open, and pokes only her face inside.]

Of what?

[she looks over the young person at the table, then notices the apple. Her eyes get very wide.]

...Oh. Gods, is that—you've found fruit?

[Faris takes the arrival of what appeared to be a Wererat with stride. She was hardly the strangest thing the pirate has seen.]

They look good and fresh. Think fast, lass.

[Just going to toss the apple at the other occupant of the house. Pawing through the other pieces of fruit to inspect them.]

Wonder if someone is growing them. [Just thinking out loud. It would be amazing to find and monopolize an indoor or underground garden.]

[she catches the apple on pure reflex, not looking away from this stranger. She's cautious, but curious, and also it's freaking cold outside, so she steps into the house all the way and shoves the door closed with her backpack. She brushes snow off of her coat with her free hand.]

Ahh; that's better. Didn't mean to let in a draft.

[she looks from the stranger to the fruit. Her nose twitches. She keeps her tone light, if cautious, but doesn't move from the door.]

Someone's got to be growing them somewhere close by. ...That's the most I've ever seen left at once, though. You haven't eaten anything yet?
