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?
[Yosuke's been freezing his ass off from the very start of this debacle. He hasn't been affected by frostbite just yet, but he's been on a personal journey of sorts. Playing detective's become somewhat of a habit, apparently, but no one can blame him under these conditions. His tablet's been fairly useful in it's own way, but a tablet's just a tablet. If he could somehow produce flames and set it on fire, then he'd be happy.
But he cannot, and thus he's been searching for answers on foot until, comically convenient as it is, he happens upon a functioning home. Of course, he doesn't really know that it's functioning until he knocks, tests the knob and treads inside, hugging himself and rubbing at his upper-arms in an attempt to create some friction and speed up the thawing process.]
Hey..? Anybody in here-? I knocked, so...
[So please don't try to kill him. He calls out a few more times before testing the bathroom first and foremost in Typical Yosuke Fashion (when you g2g you g2g, and it doesn't seem like anyone's here at all..). Next, he's fussing around with the fire place and searching nearby drawers for a matchbook; figuring out how to start a fire Bear Grylls style has been his main issue since waking up in the morgue -- which is something he's done his very best to forget about!
[The noises Yosuke's sure to hear as he wanders through the little cabin aren't that out of the ordinary. The creaking of floorboards beneath him, the howling winds bearing down on the walls just outside, the occasional plink plink plink of water droplets from the bathroom sink. There's one noise, however, that's not like the others, and after a moment, it comes from a thick pile of blankets seemingly strewn about in the corner of the room.]
Nngh...
[Sounds almost like a groan. A very quiet one that gradually grows in volume... Is there someone hiding beneath the blankets? That blanket pile, it looks like, is more of a blanket fort. One that was set up so that a certain someone could try and keep comfortable while maintaining a watch downstairs. Fat lot of good that did him - all it did was get him to fall asleep!
After a moment, Yu's head suddenly pokes its way out from beneath the blankets, followed by his shoulders. Arms. A torso. His complexion's very pale and his eyes are bleary, bloodshot. He's still half-asleep but he looks more half-dead.]
[There was something always entirely unpleasant about that blanket fort. From the moment he walked in, he knew it was concealing a dark secret...one that he really didn't care for in lieu of his bladder.
In any case, he can't really decide what's scarier: coming upon Yu in a scary ("scary") abandoned house, the fact that he looks like he hasn't slept or eaten in days, or the fact that he walked right past the pile of nonsense without thinking HEY, THAT LOOKS SUSPICIOUS -- especially after all he's been through.]
...Dude?!
[It comes out after his jaw's been slack for far too long.]
Dude! [More determined, this time. Yosuke even moves to close the gap between them.] What the hell are you doing here?!
[Whether he means in the house or in general is up for Yu's interpretation to deal with.]
[Yu just kind of woozily shrugs his shoulders as his vision slowly begins to focus, arms flopping lazily into the surrounding blanket cocoon.]
...Seemed like a good idea at the time.
[Looks like Yu interpreted the question not as "in the house" or "in general," but as in "What are you doing all wrapped up in these blankets?" At least that offbeat way of doing things and that deadpan delivery of his hasn't really changed.]
[Which is precisely the WRONG interpretation of what he was going for!]
Okay -- what did?! Ending up here? You did it on purpose?!
["Here" meaning "in general". Yu's response was simple, yes, but enough to assume that he was clearly referencing the house and their current situation than anything else. He's just stupefied at the moment; suddenly running into him and all.]
That doesn't even make sense. [FTR.] How long have you even been under there?!
