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?
And that is the first impression Tony has of the people he's run into in person. The instant he grabs onto the stranger he's sent flailing on the floor thanks to the fist to the face and he can't even yell about it. Luckily, the stranger just punched him. Tony picks himself off of the morgue floor and reminds himself that he doesn't know what he's going to run into in this town. For all he knew, the other guy could have been armed.
Okay. Try again, then.
He stands up and tries to tell this person that he doesn't mean any harm. He's just trying to find a way out of the morgue, damn it, because they have to go according to his tablet. But what he actually does is wave his arms at Shin in a silent mime of exaggerated gestures - searching with a hand shielding his eyes, waving toward the hallways in various directions, and pointing at Shin and then at himself - with a serious expression. He might stomp his foot in all of that, too. He's frustrated.
He'd tell the guy that he didn't mean to startle him, but he did just get punched so he doesn't really think he owes him that much. Instead, Tony holds up his tablet that is still beeping at him with its message. He stares impatiently at the stranger. Maybe he'll figure it out. If he doesn't, this time he's going to be ready for the next incoming punch.
He hears beeping, heavy breathing—after his fist connects, that is, which sets him a little more at ease. If he can land a hit even in this darkness, he's not at a total loss.
Speaking of the darkness, Shin tries again to blink, but nothing works. Even the flurry of movement he can hear happening in front of him (but at a safe distance) can't be registered.
A suspicion rises in his mind. Shin turns his head toward the beeping, and... nothing still. He brings his hand to his face, then nearly pokes himself in the eye in his attempts to see his fingertips.
Ah, dammit. He really can't see right now. Shin scowls mightily before turning his head back toward where he thinks the beeping is coming from.

"Hey, you there. Who are you?"
