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?

[...Okay, that one, that one gets him to laugh. Even if Demyx can't hear it, the relief that washes over Lea's features is unmissable.]

Ugh, you're terrible. [And he means it in the most complimentary way possible, of course. As for what to do... he just looks around and shrugs, before seeming to remember something and turning back to Demyx.]

Oh, one thing. Do ya mind calling me Lea from here on in?

[Riku doesn't. Because Riku is a jerk. Don't be like Riku. :C]

[melodiouspacifist]

[He grins, quite proud of himself at getting Lea to laugh. It seems important.

He tilts his head when he makes his request but he doesn't quite catch it.]

What's that? What do I call you?

[He can guess it'd be his Other's name, but he doesn't know Axel's.]

[firewheel]

[Lea considers this for a second, and then straightens up, using his pointer finger to write a word in the air. Fortunately, it's only three letters: L, E, A.]

[Demyx will probably start calling him "Leah" until he can hear again, but that is a risk that Lea is willing to take.]

[melodiouspacifist]

[Three letters are easy, and when he reads it out it does sounds like "Leah".]

I'll try Lea. Not really good for nicknames though.

[He taps his chin, thinking about it.]

Ax was great 'cause I could call you Ax. Lea doesn't seem as good. I'll think of something though!

[Knowing Demyx means you get a nickname. You're welcome.]

[firewheel]

[...Yeah, he probably should have expected that. Lea just puts his face in his palm for a moment, snickering.]

Close enough. And hey! Maybe making up stupid nicknames for me is the best way to pass the next couple hours 'til lockdown.

[melodiouspacifist]

[He smiles and mulls it over. Three letters huh? Clearly he doesn't want to be called Axel so keeping it isn't an option unless Lea is being particularly annoying or something.

Then again, it'd be a little too mean to take his name from him again.]

Guess I can't really use your name. Could be stuck calling you Red or something.

[He smirks.]

Flame maybe, but that's getting into stuffy work titles. Too boring.

[Something to keep his mind off the chill is more than welcome.]

[firewheel]

Red? [He scoffs, waving an arm.] That's weak. I would expect 'Pyro Jerk' or something, at least.

[Come on Demyx, you can make up better nicknames than that.]

[melodiouspacifist]

[He snorts, resting his chin on the palm of his hand, leaning his elbow onto his thigh.]

I can go with 'Hey Asshole!' if you prefer.

[He smirks.]
