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?

( Hook has been keeping his distance from the boy, but not a very good one. just like Neverland he seems to need to know where he is, even if Baelfire would likely not favor the idea he's keeping tabs. )

I'm not trying to freeze anyone to death. I'm trying to make a map.
if they don't want to lend aide then I'll make it myself.

[ luckily for Hook, Bae hasn't yet noticed the pirate checking in, keeping tabs. at least, not all the time. but as much as Bae feels the deep mistrust and hurt, he knows that Hook does have valuable skills, and that they should work together, at least in this. ]

What supplies do you need? [ because he'll be the better of the two, and help when it isn't deserved. but he's seen Hook's maps, he knows how useful a map could be here, especially if they found more shelter and food. ]

We'll have to move out, spread out eventually. Before the snow drives us out instead.

paper. pen. at best. I talked to a girl about marking it on a wall but it would be easier to work it as I go with paper, then I can make a larger version after
you and Tink ought to stay inside. faeries don't hold their heat and she won't stay in without you.


( it's absolutely a manipulation. likely one Tink won't like if she sees it. but Bae is right, the cold is deadly, and Hook has already let him die once. he won't do it twice. )

We don't know who else is here -- if there are enemies or... if you put it on the wall then they'll be able to find everything, won't they?

[ he doesn't know who else could be lurking in this place, somewhere out on the borders, watching them. he doesn't even know how they got here, or if someone was in charge of that, too.

but then there's Tink, and Hook is right. he and Tinker Bell haven't been separated long at all. ]


I can find paper. I can fit into places that most people here can't. I will talk to Tink. [ because they both know he is absolutely right. she won't let him go without her. ]

( sometimes he thinks he's trained Bae a little too well how to be a pirate. because he is right, having it on a wall would mean anyone, good and bad, can see it. it might be a risk worth taking but it's very hard to say. )

If we find paper that'd be the best option. if we only have a wall then we can cover it once we have a picture.

( he's not particularly surprised Baelfire is willing to climb into small spaces. he just doesn't want him to. )

let me try and find it on my own first. the two of you can stay where it's safe.

[ as much as he doesn't trust this man now, he has learned a great deal from him. being on the ship and living in Neverland has taught him things that otherwise, he may never have learned. but at what cost? ]

I can protect myself. Tink can, too. We can help, and we don't need your protection.

[ it's not meant to be a barb for Hook to stumble into, but it certainly reads that way over writing. but Baelfire has survived Pan for this long, he can survive the cold with doors that shut at night. it's already safer than the island. ]

Maybe I'll find more food when I look for the paper. I think we're all running low.

( it may not be intended as a scathing reminder that his concern is unwanted, but that's the result. it's not as if he can really protect them anyway. even if he was allowed close, he can't battle cold. he can't protect them any more than he could protect anyone in Neverland. not, in the end, that he tried to protect anyone but himself. )

just keep an eye on Tinker Bell. this is no place to be alone.

( he can't do much, but he can try to keep the two of them together. might be all he can do, except for perhaps giving Tink some food when the boy isn't paying attention. he suspects he wouldn't take it from him. )

if you find paper let me know but don't search for it on my account. I'm sure I'll find something.

I won't let anything happen to her if I can. I promise.

[ and Bae never goes back on his word. he knows the effects of broken promises, has both seen and felt the destruction it can bring. ]

I'll search for it for us. We'll all need the map. With the snow, everything has begun to look the same.

[ and who better to draft a map than the pirate himself. ] If I find something, I'll bring it to you. If we can't find paper, can we use fabric? Can you make maps on that? [ and for all that Bae has grown up in the time he's had in Neverland, there's still a hint of bright eyed boy in there, too. ]

good. she's strong but nobody is invincible.

( excluding a very notable exception but he's not going to bring that up. he does know that Tink and Bae both are a great deal stronger than they look. he worries anyway. and as long as he is too far away to do anything to help them he probably always will. )

aye, fabric would work. a tight weave, preferably, or it'll be hard to write on. we can make do with what we have, it's just a matter of knowing our options.

Maybe we'll find a way out.

[ and really, the "we" part of this comes out too easily. they weren't a crew anymore, after all, but they were from the same world. they had to stick together in some respect, right? ]

I'll take Tink, and we can work together to find something. If we can make a map, it'll keep us busy at least. It might get colder, after all. [ and if it does, how will they stay warm? they don't have much each other at this point, and the houses with doors that lock at night. ]

if there's a way, we'll find it.

( he doesn't know what magic sustains this place, how it can traverse time when that is said to be impossible. he just knows he needs to get back, to save Baelfire's son... somehow. how can Baelfire have a son if he's here, before Henry was even created? )

let me know if you do. I'll keep an eye out myself. I've made maps of bigger places before, but it might take time.
