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?
[ once her communicator's on, there's the sound of a fire cracking, and a warning tone in her voice to who she thinks is in the house: ]
Listen well, darling. It's rude to enter someone's home without knocking or giving out your name, so it's completely appropriate to punish such a rude person. Say hello.
[ a short sigh, and now back to her rather casual tone, ] I don't suppose any of you happen to have something sweet in hand, do you?
( .o3 )
[ angels. demons. she's fought with many different monsters before, and intruders that decide to be rude will be dealt with the same way. that's why, when bayonetta hears a strangers footsteps grow louder and louder, she stays on the wooden chair with one leg crossed over the other. elbow on the knee, chin on an open palm — ]
I don't suppose you have a name to share, do you? Because I'm not quite fond of people who decide to come in without knocking.
[ the tone of her voice is casual, and she dons the leather catsuit she favors in a fight. if it were warmer in the world, she would have kept her dress on instead. ]
You do have a name, don't you?
[ if the answer is no, prepare for a nickname, stranger. ]
[ Helios thought finding the house was a godsend, due to the horrible storm raging outside. He didn't even think to check or consider if anyone else was around inside it's warm, protective, walls. But when he happens upon Bayonetta he will pause startled and slightly wary. He doesn't look intimidating at all at least? He's kinda harmless in a derpy sort of way so Bayonetta's tone definitely makes him jittery. ]
Ah! I-I'm sorry. I was just...trying to get out of the-the cold.
[ He's so awkward now because he didn't mean to piss anyone off. Ahh how does this keep happening to him?! And right, yes, a name. A name would be good. ] Helios! My name is-is Helios Sprensonne...I apologize for-for all of this.
[ there's no change with the look on her face, no change of the attitude she gives off as the witch studies him from her seat. the man doesn't look intimidating, and he certainly sounds far from it with the stuttering, but there are always wolves in sheep's clothing.
standing up on her two heeled feet, bayonetta begins to walk over. hands on her hips, a sway with every step. ]
Sprensonne. [ testing his name on her tongue, and she doesn't give hers in return because he doesn't ask for it, ] You seem like a good boy to apologize so quickly. Did you just wake up today?
[ Good boy indeed. Helios is just easily flustered and without his magic he's been turned around quite a bit since arriving here. He does nod in reply though a sigh escaping him. ]
Yes, um, I did. I mean this morning it was...6am when I woke up in an unfamiliar cabin with this... [ He'll slowly reach into his jacket pocket to take out the device all of them have been given. ]
Did you arrive this morning too? Ah, I-I never caught your name... [ Right he should probably ask for that, huh? ]
[ not exactly giving helios an answer just yet, she's always one to scrutinize during the first meeting. eying him, bayonetta starts from his boots all the way to the top, and she stops her tracks once the man is just a few feet in front of her. this is the part where she tilts her head and looks down —
if helios looks close enough at her attire, there's enochian writing around. a hum escapes her throat, ] You can call me Bayonetta.
[ of course no one gets cereza out of her. not yet, because that name is earned when one is in a new world. ]
As for your first question, no. It's only been a week, but I suppose whoever's decided to bring us to this boring party wanted more company.
Bayonetta...well it's nice to-to meet you. I wish it was, ah, under different circumstances however. [ The enochian writing doesn't go unnoticed, not at all, if anything Helios tilts his head curiously back at her before he takes a slight step backwards. ]
It s-seems like they have ways to tamper with our powers as well. My magic doesn't work at all here. It hasn't worked since I arrived.
[ it's the second he says magic that piques her interest. so she isn't the only one who couldn't light a fire with a snap of her fingers, then, the witch thinks to herself. the three questions that come to mind are why, how, and who the hell is it? because she would like her hands on them the ost brutal way possible.
preferably ending with them under her heels. ]
A magician with no magic to show off. Like a rabbit without luck... [ there's a slow shake of her head. ] You're better off arriving somewhere else before the sun sets, if you haven't received the notice yet.
[ as if on que, 8 o'clock comes and there's a click that echoes in the air; the doors are locked. ]
[Rosethorn's usually a lot more careful about checking buildings for inhabitants or other scavengers before she enters them, but the cold was so much worse today that she rushed the job and missed the obvious. Now she's standing in someone else's house, dripping melting snow on the floor, and feeling like a fool.
Her mouth presses into a line at the tone of the other woman's words, but for once she keeps her words in check. It's a much warmer welcome than what Rosethorn would have given, had their positions been reversed.]
My apologies. If I'd realized anyone else was here, I would have moved on.
[ a witch she may be, and even a wicked one when in the mood, but there's no need to be unnecessarily cruel in some situations. bayonetta is a survivor of the cold just like her, in a world where she's unable to make a flame by rubbing two fingers with the thought of heat. that's why she's quiet at first, rubbing a gloved thumb against her chin.
a name will come to mind eventually. for now, bayonetta finally says something after looking rosethorn over. alone in the world again, just like on the day she wakes up twenty five years ago. ]
I suppose I can do you the favor of sharing the fire, but I certainly hope you have something to make it brighter.
[ like wood, of course. ]
And that you've shut the door. The breeze is far too chilly for my taste.
[Heat is at a premium in this town. And besides, leaving a door open is just plain rude. She brushes off the last of the ice on her habit before setting her bag on the table.]
Thank you for letting me in. I don't have any fuel to offer, but I have other things I can share.
[Rosethorn's not as strong as she used to be, not after her bout with the blue pox, so she can only carry so much. Wild horses would have to drag it out of her before she'd ever admit it, though. She starts taking out some of her hoarded supplies, food and snacks she's managed to scrounge up. It's the least she can do to return the hospitality.]
[ grey eyes look over what her new guest, and now no longer that much of a stranger, has to offer in exchange. when she spots something sweet, a gloved hand reaches out and takes it with two fingers.
all right, she can stay, bayonetta thinks as she rolls the treat between her fingers. ]
Bayonetta. [ and it is simply that. the rule of telling someone her name is cereza changes in this new world. ] And you have good luck, then, because I have enough wood to last for the rest of the evening. I can't say the same for tomorrow, but that's what playing scavanger hunt is for.
[ there's a small pile of broken pieces nearby the fireplace, though covered by a bit of shadow. bayonetta may be a witch with no magic, but she's also a survivor that actually feels the winter's bite against her skin on the first day of arrival. that's different, the cold. ]
Where are you from?
