Network Prompts
ONE: SOOTHING AMBIANCE
Today in your searches you found a SD card full of ambient noise, primarily in the form of rain sounds. It's actually incredibly peaceful, a great find for those extra-stressful days. However...when you actually relax and listen to it in full, you start to hear what you're sure are subliminal messages peppered in between the sound of droplets and pouring water. Or maybe you really are just that stressed. It's not like you'd ever follow up on anything the messages suggest, like locking yourself outside or sawing through one of your limbs, but you really would feel a bit better if you could be sure if this is in your head or not. Luckily, the music downloaded itself from your SD card to a file on your tablet, so it'll be easy enough to send someone on the Network a copy and get their opinion on the matter.
TWO: AND NOW, FOR THE WEATHER
At first, you were sure that finding WEATHER_FORECAST.EXE was going to be an incredibly useless addition to your tablet's apps. True to your suspicions, the first several days you checked it showed nothing but blizzards. Hey, at least the readings were accurate! Checking it again, however, and you'll be surprised to find that the forecast has changed. It's now boasting fair, sunny weather. You look out the window and it looks like the cloud and snow has all cleared. What are you waiting for? Strip off those unnecessary extra layers and spread the word!
Of course, anyone you talk to will probably be quick to call you on your error. As far as everyone else can see, the weather is the same cold misery that it's always been. Hopefully, someone can stop you before you get yourself frostbite.
Action Prompts
THREE: ROOM FOR ONE MORE?
In a rather delightful turn of events, you and your traveling companion have found a house with a working bathtub! The hot water is only good for one use each night, so you'll probably want to stick around a few days to get the most out of it. It looks like it's your turn tonight, so you settle in for a nice relaxing dip...when you feel your head being pushed forcefully underneath the surface.
The feeling of being held there only lasts for a moment, not enough to cause any damage, but enough that when you come up for air, you're not left particularly happy. And who could have done it other than your traveling companion? You never saw or heard them come in, but it couldn't have been no one, could it? This might be a good time to have some words with them about their idea of a tasteful prank.
FOUR: SINK OR SWIM
In a less fortunate turn of events, the house that you and your traveling companion have gotten stuck in for the night is completely waterlogged. Leaks are springing everywhere and most of the items you find are coated in mold...but, well, it was this or freezing to death outside. Time are tough. You might not be very comfortable, but maybe the two of you can make it work with a bit of creativity...or selflessness. The top of the coffee table in the living room seems dry enough to set up on. If nothing else is certain, it's going to be a very long night.

Prompto Argentum | Final Fantasy XV
@chocobro:
III[ The video opens on a frazzled looking young man, who waves at the camera and tries mostly successfully to force a casual grin before starting. ]
Hey, everyone. So, uh. I found this SD card in a drawer earlier and it turns out it's one of those relaxation tape things? You know, where it's all animal and nature sounds. This one's mostly like, rain and babbling brooks and that kind of thing, from what I can tell, but, uh.
[ He frowns, biting his lip and glancing over his shoulder, briefly. ]
Could one of you take a look at it and see if you hear anything, weird, in the background? Like, voices telling you to do stuff? I mean, if not that's totally cool too, I get it, but.
Pleaaaase tell me it's not just me.
[ There's a pretty notable pause between the burst of distressed gargling and shouting and when Prompto comes stalking out of the bathroom, because as upset as he is about this (it's a lot) he's not nearly mad enough to go running around wet and naked in this kind of cold. He's still more damp than he'd really like to be, but at least he's got his clothes back on. ]
Hey! What's the big idea?
III
He jumps to his feet and runs to the door to listen for any splashing or other sound to indicate that his companion might be in trouble.
He is still at the door when Prompto stalks out and the door slams him in the face.]
What idea?
What?
[He winces and rubs at his nose.]
no subject
You know what I mean! [ He jerks his thumb over his shoulder at the bathtub behind him, the floor around it soaked from when he'd been thrashing around trying to get his head back above water. Something seems to occur to him, though, and he looks at James sidelong, suddenly unsure. ] You... do know, right?
no subject
I was out here reading when I heard you shout.
...Should I know something?
no subject
[ Like okay it is actually a little reassuring that James didn't sneak up on him in the bath and dunk him but that means a ghost or something did and that's way worse. ]
Someone - or something shoved my head underwater while I was in there. Are you sure there isn't anyone else in here with us?
no subject
HAUNTED!?
Is this place really haunted!?
We have to go right now!
no subject
I can't believe this. Cold, I can handle. Ghosts, I can handle. But cold and ghosts at the same time?
no subject
[He draws a breath and tries to regain some calm.]
I've seen this movie, the dashingly handsome one died first.
no subject
no subject
[He throws his hands into the air.]
Now what do we do?
whoops I lost the notif for this
[ Even if he had any elemental flasks on him, it sounds like being here would've rendered them inert. Plus this house is pretty small and full of things that'd probably burn as well as or better than a ghost. ]
Maybe try to hit it with something heavy if it shows up again? Whatever we do, we absolutely should not split up. That's always when they get you.
All good!
[He paces and scratches his head.
Think, Jimmy, think!
What would Jessie and Meowth do?
MECHAS! YES!
Wait, no, there are no mechas here.
Well, he's out of ideas.
James launches himself at the door and starts pounding on it.]
There HAS to be another building out there somewhere!
[He throws his weight against the door but it doesn't budge.
He tugs on the knob and it doesn't budge.
He curls up, plants both feet against the wall for leverage and pulls with all of his might.]
What are these things made of!?
Desidera Jones | Cyberpunk OC
[Just the thing to help get to sleep in a strange place, right? Granted, it's pretty old-tech, just a recording with no holo or anything, but, kinda relaxing.
Except not.
Hello, Norfinbury, have an extremely annoyed redhead practically touching face to the screen as she waves the chip accusingly.]
Okay, your sims here are kinda, just gonna come out with it, reallyreally tripping. Like, seriously. How these sublims got past the FCC are way beyond me.
Unless this is a zombie apocalypse too and no one gave me the heads-up. And even then, it's a fucking rude apocalypse. Even the 2041 zombies were smart enough to try and scam you with some small talk before they tried to eat you, you know?
FOUR: Sink or Swim
"This is really unsanitary."
Des scowls at her boots, then around the room, looking for anything remotely usable, before she shifts her backpack with a sigh and wrinkles her nose. "It thawed enough to actually grow, so, at least we won't die overnight? At least. If the mold doesn't get us."
She tugs off her cap with another frown. "I didn't have my heart set on sleeping anyway, but at least a freaking plug would be nice."
