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?
He knows that voice, it's the first familiar one that he's heard here, but it's the last one he expected to hear. He thought Greed gone, or mostly gone, and he honestly isn't sure what he is feeling at finding himself wrong.]
G-Greed?! But... but how?
[Why couldn't the first other person from Amestris have been Ed? Or Winry?]
[The woods? What is even going on here? He thought he was used to this place now and the shenanigans that sometimes came up, but he had never even considered that Greed could be here.]
Uh--
[Engage brain, Al.]
Where are you? Can you see anything nearby?
[Regardless of whether they end up fighting or assisting one another, Al still needs to make sure he's the first to get to the Homunculus.]
[Right, of course. It's only when Greed tells him to stay inside that he remembers he can't actually go out even if he wanted to. The damn cabin has locked down for the night and he's powerless to do anything but wait until morning.
His fingers tighten on the tablet, voice full of suppressed concern and energy.]
Greed, listen to me. We're going to need to talk about-- a lot of things, but you have to make it until morning first. You have to try and find shelter!
[He probably should move. Greed tries to push himself up alongside the side of the building, but discovers after a moment of struggling he can't actually feel his legs anymore.
It's a strange feeling.]
Don't worry about me, Al. It'll take more than a little snow to kill the Ultimate Shield.
[He struggles with that, setting down the tablet as he once again tries to get to his feet only to topple over. Al can probably hear it, and the groan as Greed hits the snow. There's a pause as he reaches for the tablet again.]
I'm thinking maybe I should dig in right here instead.
[He definitely hears it, and it scares him. Maybe Greed as he was back then hadn't exactly been a good person, but he hadn't been the most evil by a long shot and had grown to even become an ally.]
No way! Keep moving until you find somewhere more sheltered, don't give up and fall over there.
[He doesn't mean the words, the words are irrelevant completely, he means the tone. Defeated. Lost. His own tone is half angry and half frightened, and wholly firm.]
Don't you dare give up. I thought you were supposed to be Greed, I thought you wanted all the life you could get... you're not going to let some snowstorm stop you doing that, are you?!
[That manages to get him to snap out of his defeat. He's still cold, still can't feel his legs, still certain he's going to die out here-- but Greed tries to stand again, using the building for support.]
It wasn't anything personal. Kidnapping you.
[His voice is still as distant as it has been, but he knows he has to keep talking.]
Just a matter of convenience for me, and the wrong place, wrong time for you.
[He feels so helpless being able to do nothing but sit inside and talk, but if it even does something as small as keep Greed awake, he'll gladly keep talking all night.]
...Uh, right.
[It had sure felt personal.]
When I see you in the morning, I'll let you make it up to me.
[With the stern implication that he will make it through to the morning.]
[He's aware how awful this is, how bleak it is. He's cold and can barely walk, but the voice comes back to him, the last words he heard Martel say: "Greed, what are you gonna do?"
He hadn't answered.]
Can't promise I'll do a good job of it, but I owe it to ya.
[Greed can keep talking like he'll wake up tomorrow.]

Al...phonse?
[He sounds surprised, but his voice is still dreamy.]
Didn't I leave you in the woods?

no subject
I'm not sure.
I'm right up against a building with a red roof.
[Greed's silent for a long moment.]
Stay inside, kid. No reason for you to get caught up in this weather.

[Greed almost sounds like he believes himself.]
no subject
M-Mm.
[He hopes he sounds like he believes it too.]
Just humour me, okay? Find a snow bank and dig in.

Alphonse.
[Though his voice is distant, there's some force to it. It's entirely lacking Greed's sardonic tone.]
Didn't... think I'd hear your voice again. After leaving you in the woods.
[Maybe delirium is why he isn't making any sense?]
