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?

I haven't gotten around to figuring out the numbers yet, but it doesn't seem to be the kind of place that allows for easy outs.

[Ring any bells, Hook? For everything she despised about Neverland and Pan's rule, at least it was warm most of the time.

Tinker Bell doesn't know what to do with weather so cold it could freeze her wings off - wings that she hasn't been able to use since she arrived. No matter how hard she tries, she can't seem to make them appear.]


I haven't gotten far, but I'm willing to share what I've seen. Would you like help creating a map? That might be the quickest way to get a sense of what's around us.

[Map it, and find the safest points.]

( oh, yes, that's familiar. he signed up for Neverland again, and instead he's stuck in a frozen version? really not what he was going for. at least Neverland wasn't going to freeze the few fingers he had left off. )

it's familiar
just less clue who is pulling the strings this time.


( he's used to villains announcing themselves, this is very different than that. )

two heads are better than one.

( he says that, but, he probably wouldn't take help from just anyone. )

From the look of things, we'll find out when they're ready. And not a moment sooner.

[ It's enough power to have caught a fairy's attention, that's for sure. She's looked for traces of magic everywhere, yet the only thing she's certain of is her own lack of it. ]

How far have you gotten on your own?

[Likely farther than he should have dared to venture out. That's always the way with him.]

I found an edge of sorts, if you want to call it that
more or less a wall of snow, I've no idea if one could climb it.


( does he get any points for not trying? )

that's to the far north.

I'm surprised you didn't hook into it to see how far you could get.

[Points for surviving, maybe. Points for not risking an avalanche or something equally horrible. It'd be like him to take the risk. This time, Tink is glad he didn't.]

Were you alone out there?

it didn't work as well as you'd think

( hooks and snow and ice don't mix, funny how that works. nevermind, take away his points. )

I had myself, and my charming personality to keep me warm.

Who says I thought it'd work well to begin with?

[ Only that she thought he'd try it. If something terrible can happen, it usually happens to them. Even their brief victory in returning to Storybrooke hadn't lasted long enough for them to enjoy it. ]

You're lucky you didn't freeze to death.

turn of phrase, Lady, but it at least didn't work out as well as I'd think

( because really, he wears a bit of mountain climbing gear attached to his forearm, and it's no good at scaling snow mountains? really, what's the point? )

if you're very worried about my catching a chill you're welcome to come warm me proper, darling

( it's never too cold to hit on Tinker Bell, apparently. )

Then don't try it again.

[She'd be happy to say she told him so if he fails again, but the possibility of a frozen pirate outweighs her potential amusement. As far as she knows, he's the only person from Storybrooke here. They need to look out for each other.]

Then I suppose you're still going to freeze to death.

[ Never too cold to reject Hook, either. ]

if I'm going to die, it's not going to be from nippy weather, have no fear.

( her icy (ha ha?) reception doesn't surprise him. after how he left things in Neverland, frankly he deserves it. he's not sure he wants to know for sure if she means that, that she'd rather he be dead than be close to him, so surprisingly enough he won't push the issue. )

why wouldn't I try it again? it could be a way out

If I were you, I wouldn't put that out into the universe.

[ Especially not here, in a place where they don't know how any of this works. Saying something can't happen is just asking for it to happen. She's done it plenty of times herself. ]

Because to go off alone, without any knowledge of what could happen here, is ridiculous. Even for you.

[And she doesn't want to have to go looking for him if he's going to do something that idiotic. (Nor is she admitting she would.)]

hate to break it to you, but it's a bit late for that. already said. and really, Lady, I can manage a bit of cold.
I didn't realize that exploration required a buddy system. tell me, who is yours?


( if he can't wander around on his lonesome, then she can't either. )

I can take care of myself.

[ She won't be attempting to scale an ice wall until she has more information. As much as he may want to get back to Emma, they'll have to study this place before they can figure out what to do next. ]

right and I've been doing exactly the same for centuries. you needn't worry.

( her insistence is even a bit baffling. since when has anyone cared if he did something stupid and dangerous? stupid and dangerous has pretty much always been his life. pirate and everything. )

Who said I was worried? I'd just rather not be the one to have to break the news to Emma when I find my way back to Storybrooke.

[ If she's worried, it's for good reason. She knows exactly what he'd risk his life for.]

that would truly be a strain, wouldn't it
the man she's known for a fortnight and everything
she would just take my ship and charge into Neverland without me.


( at least he has a fair understanding of the savior he hardly knows. they do understand each other, after all. if he were to die here, nobody would miss him, throwing out names of essential strangers is not going to change that fact. )

[personal profile] trybelieving 2015-06-02 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Why would she go back there?

[The problem isn't Neverland, the problem is Pan.]

how do you even know who Emma is?

( he hasn't stopped to think about the fact there is a fairy present but now he has no option. Pan would never let her out of Neverland. is she even here in the first place? he's hallucinated odder things before. )

[personal profile] trybelieving 2015-06-02 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Are you sure you didn't bump your head out there?

[ How does she know Emma? He brought Emma to Neverland, how can he ask that? ]

that's not an answer.

( and seriously not helping on the hallucination front. )
trybelieving: (Default)

[personal profile] trybelieving 2015-06-02 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Then maybe you should try asking a question that you don't already know the answer to.

[ If he's going to be like that, she might worry he did bump his head out there. ]

I don't know the answer, fairy. you shouldn't know someone who has never been to Neverland, and certainly isn't here.
