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?

"A lone wanderer?" Hope walks out of the next room with her hands up, turns out that works a lot better here then the wasteland.

She'd been looking around the house when she'd heard the door slam. Her hands are up but she's ready to make a run for it if the person seems violent.

Clint hesitates for a moment before lowering his weapon, keeping the arrow notched for now but he was at least more relaxed than he had been.

"Seems to be a common trend around here," he said in an attempt at a lighthearted tone but it was a pretty poor excuse for one honestly. "..You know, I was honestly starting to think I was the only person around this godforsaken place."
vaultexile: (Oh that was irradiated)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-13 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Hope lowers her hands as well and steadies her stance from a less ready to run one.

"I've been getting that a lot. There's a few people but I think it's hard to collect together with the never ending blizzard."

She shrugs.

"I'm used to travelling by myself in wastelands so I've been exploring instead of staying in one place."

Granted her wasteland was irradiated but not freezing.
genuinepleasure: (Child's play)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-13 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"True. Traveling during the day is better than at night but it still isn't good," Clint drawled, taking note of her change in stance and finally un-notching the arrow, tucking it back into his quiver. "Wastelands huh? I'm assuming not a snowy wasteland like this."

Though she did seem rather at ease in this place.

"What's your name?"
vaultexile: (Shit start working)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-13 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, just the regular radioactive kind."

Yes, she's fully serious. Oh right her name. Without the radio she probably can't just call herself the lone wanderer without getting more weird looks.

"Hope Irving. How about you?"
genuinepleasure: (Look at that smile)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-13 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
He can't help but snort softly.

"Even better."

Hear that dry tone? That's the tone of a man that definitely does not find that to be any better than this.

"Clint Barton. Pleasure to meet you."
vaultexile: (Tell me more)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-13 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
It would be hard to be worse then this really.

"You too. I don't suppose you've found anything that explains how or why we're here?"
genuinepleasure: (Birdnest)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-13 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
"Sadly, no," he said with a frown, shaking his head as he reached back to rub at his neck slightly. "Like I said, I didn't even realize there were other people here until I found you."
vaultexile: (Ignore the teddy bear)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-13 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"Mystery it is then. I just hope its not a cult."

She is so tired of cults.
genuinepleasure: (Shades)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-13 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"As long as it's not aliens or a Nazi organization, I'll be fine." Because he'd had enough of both to last a lifetime.

Glancing around, one of the archer's eyebrows lifted.

"Any food in here?"
vaultexile: (I suppose it could be worse)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
"Well if it's an alien Nazi cult we just jinxed ourselves."

She nods at the question though, turning to go in the next room which is the kitchen like area.

"There's some food in here. Not much but enough to get through at least a few days."
genuinepleasure: (Snowy Archer)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-14 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"That would be just my luck."

God the idea of it was enough to make him rub at his forehead.

"Alright. That's better than nothing. I doubt it's a good idea to stay in one place for too long anyway."
vaultexile: (Ignore the teddy bear)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"No that seems to be a bad plan in this place." She's just pulling out what she can find and placing it in the center of the table. It's not much but she's from the wasteland so any food is good in her books.
genuinepleasure: (Birdnest)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-14 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Setting his bow on the table, Clint moves to help her raid the kitchen, wanting to take full stock of everything that's available to them. He'd been on enough missions for SHIELD to know not to be picky about what he had resource wise so whatever they had?

It was good enough for him.

"Have you seen anyone else since you got here? In any of the other buildings or in this one?"
vaultexile: (Also a nerd)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 01:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"I've met a few people. All as confused as I was. Not in this one but if you go out and explore there are other buildings scattered around in the snow.

I think you can use the weird devices that we woke up with to talk to people as well."
genuinepleasure: (Okay I'm stopping you there)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-14 01:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"I heard some chatter from them but I wasn't paying much attention. I was a little worried this was all some HYDRA trap, honestly," he admitted, finishing his raid of the cupboards.

Sliding into one of the chairs, the archer glanced over all of it before grabbing a box of crackers to dig into.
vaultexile: (Say that again)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hydra? The monster from Greek myths?"

She sits down as well, taking a drink from a water bottle she'd filled up.
genuinepleasure: (Child's play)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-14 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Shaking his head, Clint finished off a few crackers before leaning back.

"No, not that kind. I almost wish it was a giant beast instead of a world wide terrorist organization."
vaultexile: (Can I go home now?)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 01:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"Probably easier to kill." If there's one thing that's really obvious to Hope it's that these people she's meeting don't seem to be from the same world she's from. The lack of complaining about radiation for one but the second, stuff like this. World wide anything.

"Do they have an actual goal, or just general terror?"
genuinepleasure: (Shades)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-14 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, he's starting to realize that the more he talks to her.

"They want to cleanse the world of anyone that would be a threat and then take control. At least, that was there last big thing. Lately they've been experimenting on individuals to see if they can harness powers--abilities that a normal person can't," he said with a shrug and a frown, snagging a few more crackers.

"They've been around since at least the forties."
vaultexile: (Scavenging for food)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 02:05 pm (UTC)(link)
"Sounds like a great bunch of people." She pauses slightly though. "When you say the forties ....what years do you mean?"
genuinepleasure: (Uh huh)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-14 02:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh yeah."

Having been about to pop a few more crackers into his mouth, he pauses, glancing at her

"..1940. Why?"
vaultexile: (And then it blew up!)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 02:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"1940?" She looks amazed. "That's ....wow. I thought you meant at least 2040. I'm really getting the feeling that whatever brought us here brought us from more then different places because it was 2277 before I woke up here."
genuinepleasure: (Okay I'm stopping you there)

[personal profile] genuinepleasure 2015-05-14 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"Whoa, whoa, hold on," Clint said, setting the box of crackers aside. "2277? Are you serious?"

And the mysteries of this place just kept getting more and more extreme.

"It was 2015 where I'm from."
vaultexile: (Scavenging for food)

[personal profile] vaultexile 2015-05-14 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"Totally. Also it was a nuclear wasteland."

No she does not even look like she's joking. She thinks back to her history books.

"2015 that's....37 years before the resource wars."
