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.

[re: icing the ankle, Meg shrugs and makes a vague "I guess so?" gesture. it's not really something she's had to think about for a while.] Ehh... your shed was probably warmer, honestly. Bigass buildings like this are all drafts --
[as if in agreement, a gust of wind sweeps down the hallway, rattling every door and locker on the way. Meg is pretty sure it's just wind, anyway. She halts and turns back to the stairwell too, almost daring something to appear.]
So... what... was up there, exactly?
no subject
[She gingerly takes a step forward and makes a face when a shot of pain runs up her leg from her ankle. This is going to be unpleasant. Her first impulse is to call for Hak and demand that he carry her, but she hasn't been able to find him anywhere. Not in this building, not on the network, and not in any of the other buildings she's passed through, either.
They'll make a slow and steady progress toward the central wing, though. Yona thinks she knows where she's going. She hopes she's right, because the last thing she wants is to lead them into more trouble.]
...it was like... a massive bunch of shadows. But it had teeth and glowing eyes...
[As she speaks, she realizes how childish it sounds and pouts a little.]
I swear, I wasn't having a nightmare or anything!
no subject
[Meg keeps looking over her shoulder as they go, nerves jangling, until she's satisfied that yes, whatever-it-was is letting them go. For now. Her relief is soon replaced with impatience at the slow going.]
For crying out loud -- this is stupid. C'mere, give me your arm. [Meg's of average height, so using her as balance shouldn't be too awkward. As ironic as the sentiment is, she really doesn't want to get caught out after dark.]
Look, I was on the ground floor, alright? I believe you. I might not have seen it, but I sure heard it. Places like this -- [she breaks off, thinking about the Voynich Hotel, and then shakes her head roughly.] I don't want to think about what the hell happened in this school.
no subject
[Yona gladly takes Meg's offer to help her balance, and after a moment or two, they're good to go. Luckily, she's not too heavy at all. This should definitely do well at speeding up their progress.
...she heard it. Well, that explains the earlier question, at least.]
Places like this... what? [She swallows hard, her imagination running wild at all the terrible things that could have happened here. After what she saw and what Meg heard, it really isn't difficult to imagine in the slightest.] Um, actually, never mind... Let's just get out of here.
no subject
[Meg makes a face as well. Picking through abandoned buildings and half-collapsed wrecks, that's one thing, but places like this school reminds her that this town was lived in. This was a town big enough to support a school. Where did the kids go? Where did everyone go?] ...yeah, I hear that.
