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.

there are other ways to go about dealing with issues then just resorting to murder.

so, what, you'd just go off hunting people for fun then?

[No, Ramsey. No, that does not make this any more okay or make you much more redeemable.]

[flayerhater]

Not "just for fun," no. Occasionally, I'll go off hunting people because they're boring, irritating, or otherwise not "fun" in any manner of speaking!

Though, killing irrelevant men and women for sport hardly constitutes as murder.

I DO believe that you're being a bit culturally insensitive at the moment.

[baymaxing]

killing people is not a sport at all. you can't just go around doing that. if you kill someone, that's murder. even here, pretty sure talking about it like this won't out you as a team player. regardless of how it might have been back home in your culture or whatever.

[flayerhater]

So what you're saying is... that I shouldn't kill people? Because "murder" isn't fun. Yes?

[baymaxing]

regardless of 'fun' factoring into it. also, it's illegal.

[Like Hiro hasn't engaged in illegal hobbies himself. He may have gambled, may have come close to committing murder via taking out Baymax's healthcare chip, but still.]

[flayerhater]

[You are one step away from being written into a George R. R. Martin story arc, Hiro. Look out.]

By whose law?

[baymaxing]

um. everywhere has a law against murder last i checked.

[Completely ignoring that they have no clue on what the rules or laws might be here at Norfinbury. Details.]

[flayerhater]

What a cruel and merciless world you live in.

No matter, I've never been fond of happy endings, anyhow! So I suppose this works in my favor.

[baymaxing]

more like a lawful and civilized world, actually.

you keep telling yourself that.

[flayerhater]

There are fates more heinous and painful than death. I would hardly consider a world without mercy a civilized one.

But as you implied, I certainly wouldn't want to start myself off on the wrong foot by unlawfully murdering people!

I thank you for your sagely advice, stranger. You've been most informative.

[baymaxing]

not that we don't have mercy. we just don't go around killing people for being boring or whatever is all.

but sure. you're. welcome i guess.
