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: IT WON'T BE LONG NOW... Well, you made a mistake. You spent too long searching around, or you ran outside near the end of the day for just one more thing, and now you've been locked out. You can search around all you want, but the best shelter you can hope for is pressing against the side of a sealed up building. You do still have your tablet, though. Maybe someone on the network can give you some advice, or at least some comfort while you wait for hypothermia to set in. TWO: CABIN FEVER Maybe you didn't want that mistake of getting caught outside to happen again, but now you've ended up staying too long in one location, and cabin fever has set in. Maybe you're taking to the network to try and ignore the hallucinations. Maybe you want to tell everyone that you've figured out they're all in on your kidnapping. Maybe you ended up wandering off and now you'd really like to know if anyone can check back in the place you were at for your pants. Action Prompts THREE: AN UNEXPECTED MEETING You're going about your business searching what seems like it might be an especially promising house--it's fully intact and there's even a working fireplace with some wood! It looks like someone else has the same idea, though, and you've run into them in the middle of your search. Do you share the potential wealth or try to kick them out? On the other hand, maybe you know who this is, or maybe you're just glad to actually see another person for the first time in ages. FOUR: GOOD MORGUE-NING You've just woken up in a morgue after dying in one unfortunate way or another. You have no idea where you are beyond that, but your tablet is insisting you can't stay here, so you should probably get out of here pretty quickly. Of course, bringing people back from the dead isn't a perfect science, so you're missing something important to you. Maybe you've lost your voice, maybe you can't remember where you're from, maybe you can't remember where you are right now. It looks like someone else is nearby, though. Maybe they can help you out?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Costumed jerk #1, meet costumed jerk #2, who's regarding the staff with some amusement. Rose hasn't bothered to be quiet while she walks around, growing more and more reckless by the minute, and finally it leads her here. ]

Come on. Really? A stick?

[ She knows what a staff is and how deadly Tim is with one, but it's no blade. ]

[ Oh god, and she has no idea who this one might be. Good guy? Bad guy? Morally ambiguous guy? She thought she'd left this kind of crap behind her in Gotham. She keeps the staff at the ready, turning so that she's always defending whatever angle Rose is at. ]

It worked for five assorted assassins. Pretty sure it'll work for you, too.

[ She stifles a laugh. ]

You haven't met one like me, sugar. [ but she shrugs, disinterested in fighting seriously, not when the cold is definitely reaching her bones and she has no food and water ] Ravager. Who're you?

[ She doesn't trust it, but then, she doesn't trust much these days. Harper's starting to grow on her, and her brother's pretty cool. Other than that? No way. ]

Spoiler. Never heard of you.

[ So she is still left wonder who exactly 'Ravager' is. ]

Spoiler?

[ But Spoiler's dead. Her expression shutters immediately to what the hell is going on here? ]

Spoiler from Gotham, right? Works with Robin?

[ Okay, that's not the reaction she's expecting. She relaxes a little out of surprise, but quickly raises her guard again. ]

From Gotham, yeah. I worked with Robin once, if you want to call it that. Just about every vigilante in town was there.

I'm with the Titans. Robin's the current leader — he goes by Red Robin now. What's the last thing you remember?

Red Robin? [ Okay, now she's really confused. And who the heck are the Titans, anyway? She hasn't heard any talk about Red Robin running a team, but then the Bats manage a lot of secrecy for all their theatrics. ]

I just met him, yesterday. [ Which is, incidentally, the last thing she remembers. ]

[ Oops this is timeline shit going on, but Rose has never cared much for preserving it. ]

Titans? The Teen Titans? Go by Nightwing, Troia, Arsenal, Tempest, Flash?

[ What is happen, why is happen, so confuse, much strange.

She pulls the mask down from her face, since they seem to be talking instead of fighting and it's just a lot easier without stuff on your face. She doesn't let go of the staff, though. ]

Nightwing is dead. And I'm pretty sure he's never been on a team with the Flash.

[ Rose unmasks in response, her eye going wide. Nightwing is - dead? That's not — she swallows. ]

Okay, so there's alternate universe shit going on here. Good to know. [ she breathes out ] All right. Can we at least agree to be on the same team?

[ That doesn't really explain things any better, but she supposes Nightwing being dead is related somehow. That evil Justice League had been from an alternate universe, right? That was the word around the net, anyway. ]

Sure. I always like it better when people aren't trying to kill me.

With that mouth, I'm not surprised they are.

[ But they do the same to her too, so she just shrugs again and approaches. ]

I'm Rose. I don't have a secret ID anyway.

They started it. [ It's a grumbled comment, though she can't help but smile. She leaves her hood up, just because it's so cold. ]

Stephanie. My secret ID and I have a strained relationship ever since my dad broadcast it with the price on my head.

[ She offers her hand to shake. ]

And I thought it was worth complaining about when Dad shot me.

[ Completely deadpan, as she shakes Steph's hand firmly. ]

Did you just get here too?

I'm starting to think there's something in the water they're giving Gotham dads. [ Harper's dad is pretty awful too, she's heard. Steph had thought her dad was well enough... right up until he pointed a gun at her head. ]

Yeah, I just sort of found myself here. It can't be New Jersey, no snow in the forecast.

It can't be home, since Spoiler's not an active vigilante where I'm from.

[ She hums thoughtfully. ]

They might've brought us all here to kill each other.

[ She coughs out a surprised laugh. ]

Wow, Hunger Games much?

[ Rose looks at her, confused. ]

What's that?

[ She does not pop culture much. ]

[ Oooookay, clearly not up on current pop culture. Noted. Moving on. ]

It's a book. And we're not killing each other. There's no reason to. It's stupid.

Oh. Not the first time I've been kidnapped to some shithole.

[ She shakes her head. ]

When's the last time you ate?

No?

[ It's Steph's first time, and she's still new to all of this. The weirdness will take adjusting. ]

Uh... [ That's a good question. ] Some time yesterday, I think?
