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?
Courage? If you think something like that takes courage. I answered the call of nature the only way I knew how. My penis can handle more than a little cold.
[The fact that he cursed and tried to use his yukata to block himself from overexposure to the rigid air was all confidential information. No one needed to know of his grumbled struggles as he tried to find just the way to write his name in the snow. They could use their imagination to fill in the blanks! Much like a text-based RPG game. Yes, yes the audience could build their own perception of the situation, which meant that he would only benefit if they thought he had suffering through it more valiantly than he actually had.]
I didn't expect to get locked out. My timing was off. My whole night has been thrown off. I had plans, you know.
[But instead, he was going to piddle about and freeze to death. An irritating mistake, though definitely not the first time he'd been locked out here. He curls his toes, attempting to bring warmth back to them.]
I was raised in a desert, so surely my tolerance is different. Desert nights are cold but it's easier to build a fire. It's usually not as windy and certainly not as wet.
[He can't imagine anyone had much in the way of plans, really, after curfew in this place, but he's not going to talk about that. He's just trying to sound confident, surely. Put on a brave face so nobody would have to see him suffering. Heaven knows (after his little encounter with corruption, they did) he's done the same many times.]
Speaking of building fires, you should try to find a place sheltered enough from the wind to make one.
Ah! So you are more preconditioned to dealing with sand in odd places. That could be a useful ability.
[Lounging around and flipping through the same month-old JUMP was enough to constitute a plan. Perhaps tonight he had finally decided on a voice to outfit Luchy with as he read the same words aloud to himself for the umpteenth time. It was the little things in this place that had to be embraced.
He does not even give the other's suggestion a moment of thought. Even when the other man had a good suggestion, Gintoki would not be able to move from this spot. He had already begun to lose feeling within his limbs. If he managed to stand, he would only flounder and drop back to the snow. He clenched his fists slowly before extending his fingers. He repeated the action to induce more blood flow within his body.]
A shelter would be too far. This [He moves his tablet to better show the building behind him] was supposed to be my shelter. A shitty shelter, given that it decided to lock me out.
