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?

[If it's any consolation, Peggy, Groot is in very much stuck in the same position.

He had been so sure he could get back to shelter in time, and now that he's realized that he can't he's been furiously posting to the network, demanding to be let inside.

He can't communicate out loud, but he's more than willing to reply to her post via text message.

YES! How DARE these horrid beings lock the mighty Groot outside in the cold. Pay heed, human: This misdeed will NOT go unpunished!

Come, join Groot. Together, we may be able to break into one of the uninhabited homes, Or burn it down, at the very least, so that the warmth of its cinders may keep us alive until morning.


[Unfortunately for Peggy, Groot has no body heat to share with her. She might be able to use him as firewood, though, if it comes to that.]

[...Oh dear, this one is a lunatic, isn't he?

Well, she'd rather be alive and with a loony than dead and without one. If he can break into the house or start a campfire, she's in.]


Where are you located, Mr. Groot?

[And why is he calling her 'human'?]
houseplant: (Hmph. I am Groot.)

[personal profile] houseplant 2015-05-12 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Arguably a lunatic. More likely, though, he's just a blowhard.

An alien blowhard, perhaps, but definitely a blowhard.
]

Due south. Groot has a light, and he suspects you will find him... hard to miss, even in the dark.

[He may only be 10 feet tall in this place, but it's sort of tough to ignore the fact that there's a big, angry tree stomping around, shouting his name at everything.]
betheshield: (Take your silver spoon)

[personal profile] betheshield 2015-05-15 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[She goes south because what else can she really do?

And then there's a tree.

There is a tree that is yelling and stomping.

Well. This is an interesting turn of events.]


Uh, excuse me. Mr. Groot?

[Yes, Peggy. Talk to the angry stomping tree. That can only end well.]
houseplant: (I AM GROOT)

[Welp. She's caught him in the middle of his temper tantrum. In his defense, though: He's been locked outside and is probably going to freeze to death. If that's not a reason to throw a fit, he doesn't know what is.

When she speaks up, though, he seems to calm down. He even speaks to her, though he doesn't say much:
]

I AM GROOT.

[I am so sorry you've gotten stuck with this one, Peggy. It's going to be a long night.]
betheshield: (Wake up in the morning)

[personal profile] betheshield 2015-05-19 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[An angry tree is talking to her. This has officially been the weirdest experience of her life, and that's saying something.]

I am Peggy. It's a pleasure, Mr. Groot.

[She can stand to be polite to the tree, even if she does feel like pinching herself to see if she wakes up.]
