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: TURN AROUND
It's after lockdown, but not early enough to go to sleep. You've got everything sorted out, and now you're bored. Time to video chat on the network! Everything's fine from where you are... But unfortunately, there's something behind you. Something humanoid and creeping closer inch by inch, trying to sneak up on you without you noticing. Maybe the person you're talking to will let you know about that. The only problem? If you do turn around to look, you won't be able to see it. If your tablet friend can convince you to move to a different room and close the door, everything will be fine. If they can't, well, they'll be watching you get dragged off into the darkness before too long.

TWO: CAUGHT ON FILM
Normally, this doesn't happen. In fact, normally it never happens. However, something has gone a bit wrong today, and the tablets are turning on and off by themselves. This makes for some pretty disjointed conversations, with people popping in and out at the worst times. And, of course, someone might see you doing something you'd prefer they didn't see.
NOTE: Please don't post anything sexual in regards to this prompt. While in-game the network doesn't allow for accidental posts, we thought you guys could have fun with it here!


Action Prompts
THREE: HORROR HOSPITAL
After a long trek through the ice tunnels, you've finally reached the hospital! You've just stepped inside to see what there is to see... And the door locks behind you. Looks like it's curfew, and guess where you're spending the night? The atmosphere is oppressive and the tablets don't work quite right, but this is probably better than being outside. Maybe you'll have some company with you? And there are probably beds somewhere.

FOUR: OKAY GUYS QUICK POLL
You've run into some good luck--you've just found a blanket! It's soft and warm and if you fold it right, you're sure it will fit into your backpack. You're sure, but you can't tell, because it's already stuffed full of things. You're going to have to pick and choose what should stay and what should go... But hey, there are other people around! Maybe they can help you sort out your supplies! Maybe you can give them some of the stuff you can't carry! Maybe you can steal their backpack so you can carry more! The options are endless!

[Just going to let his hand hang there. Awkwardly. Such a lonely hand.

And then he'll silently sigh as his shoulders slump and he shakes his head. OH WELL! He tried. Some day someone will shake his hand.

The bow-curtsy-something hybrid does make things a little interesting though. Umm... should he do it back? Was that a thing where she came from?

Zell tries to give an awkward bow-curtsy-something back to her.]
It's nice to meet you, too.

[That was good, right? Mentally patting himself on the back as he folded his hands back behind his head.] Do you have a lot of supplies? [That's not a suspicious question at all.]

[ The loneliest hand he knows~~

She's admittedly a little... weirded out when he acts the way he does. Shouldn't he be afraid of her? Seriously, who else wouldn't be? But yet again, there's another person right there and not even batting an eye at her wardrobe.

...Even going as far as to shake off her uneasy welcome and... mimicking her greeting? She... purses her lips in thought at that. If even.. taking another cautious step back when he raises his arms, but her tension fades out a little when she realizes that he's just resting them behind his head. Okay... She's okay.

Slowly, her hands are dropping. Very gradually. To pause halfway down as she blinks in surprise.
] ...I think I'll be okay for a little. Why do you ask? [ An honest question. Though she's a little curious considering.. ]

[personal profile] goregies 2015-09-23 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
I hear about -

[In its own weird way, the tension settles Josh a little - at least it assures Josh there's something actual and immediate to be concerned with. At the corner of his mouth, his teeth are exposed. A hoo, boy, this is gonna be bad, isn't it sneer...

And the whole room for isn't it still is all the more aggravating, because shoot he didn't even see the thing!]


Ah - all right. Message received.

I-I, like... thanks, man.

[And shutting the door he's gone through the fuck behind him. And shaking his head in restlessness.

Lifts a finger.]


Umm. Hold on, uh, like -- my signal's gonna go dead for a couple, maybe. [He dunno how all this works yet.] I'm gonna -- I'm gonna take a look at that. That -- the footage.

Okay... great! Super great.

[ He lets the silence linger and waits for the stranger to fill it. When he doesn't, Rhys reluctantly prods for more. ]

Soooo, do you have a name?
headjacked: ([rj_0001])

[personal profile] headjacked 2015-09-23 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ No. No no no, Tim doesn't get to leave. That easily, anyway. And not because Rhys is freaked out by this environment!! No. Not at all. ]

...hidey hole? Do you have a secure place in here? 'Cause it's kinda sounding like you know this particular craphole... decently well. Ish.

[ This is a barely educated guess. This is Rhys stabbing in the dark; an attempt to turn things back to Tim. ]

Scared it away. Maybe.

[Doubtful.]

Not sure. Probably still safer to try another room though.

*He shakes his head.

And moves a bit closer, slowly. He's trying not to spook the other man, but wants to see that hand-thing better.*
maskintape: (get so big)

[personal profile] maskintape 2015-09-23 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Secure is giving it too much credit. No - no shadows in there, though. And just one door, so it's - you know, it's easy to barricade.

[ So casual about terrifying security measures. IT'S ALL SO ROUTINE. YAWN!! ]

[Normally Jack wouldn't bother with a post as stupidly pointless as this, but that movement in the background looks potentially interesting. At best it might provide some clues about what's going on in this place; at worst it'll kill Rhys and provide a few laughs.]

Yeah, that's - that's a real problem you've got there, kiddo. Y'know, the kind where there just aren't any easy solutions.

Ever tried drinking a warm glass of milk right before bedtime? You should, it's great. You'll sleep like a baby.

[There may be the slightest bit of mockery going on. Just a bit.]

[If he knew that she was carrying some weird ass cooties that made people disappear painfully, then he would...

still act pretty much the same.]


Well, I found this awesome blanket. Can't figure out how to actually fit it in with the rest of my stuff, though.

[He gestures to his stuff on the floor. Normally, this wouldn't be a trial, but the blanket was SO FLUFFEH.] Man, why couldn't they give us bigger bags.

Nothing can beat me. [Doing his best to give a confident smile to try to calm himself down and the kid.] Name's Zell by the way.

[Hauling his bag onto his back as he starts to head out of the room. The shadow thing seems to still follow after him, albeit rather slowly.

Zell doesn't shut the door as he finds a new room.]
Think this is good?
baymaxing: (If we meet forever now)

[personal profile] baymaxing 2015-09-23 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Pretty sure these things don't care how strong you were back home. Like I said, don't bother trying to fight it. Just get out of there. And shut the door at least, you'll let it in.

[Because Hiro notes the shadow following along.]

Zell then. I'm Hiro.

[And out of nowhere --]

SANS!!! OF COURSE THAT ISN'T ME! WHERE ARE THE RIPPLING MUSCLES THAT I HAVE SOMEHOW DESPITE BEING ENTIRELY BONES!

[Judging by the dopey look on his face, somebody whose name starts with P and ends with apyrus has No Clue how serious things are. Although, the cold is suddenly bothering him, so... that's weird............?]

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU THINK I LOOK LIKE THIS. I'M ALMOST RECONSIDERING BEING GLAD TO SEE YOU!
skelepuns: (free shrugs.)

friend, you are exactly what i needed right now. (Worst End Sans, as a warning~)

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-09-24 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, Sans' emotions usually didn't do that weird thing where they roller coaster up, down, and up again, but it was happening right now and he was getting pretty bad whiplash from it.

Of course, he didn't show it. Instead, he simply turned to his brother with a wink, cracking an inappropriate joke.]


i dunno, you both look like a couple of bone heads to me.
htespagheti: (Default)

with how cagey sans is, tbh papyrus will never even notice (tho he's true end)

[personal profile] htespagheti 2015-09-24 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
HANG ON. I NEED TO REALLY EMPHASIZE HOW BAD THAT WAS.

UUUUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.


[Same old Sans. Papyrus might not really comprehend the severity of the situation, but their usual shtick still helps being benignly confused.]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ANYWAY. ARE YOU REALLY TRYING TO NAP IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS????? UNBELIEVABLE.

[What else are they going to do, Papyrus, really?]
skelepuns: Please check my journal for my policy on use of any of my icons. (chilling.)

yeah, i don't think anyone is ever going to catch on, tbh.

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-09-24 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Sans reveled in that long, drawn out 'ugh', and somehow his wide grin grew even wider.]

i was thinking of 'sleeping', actually. you know, that thing that most people do at night. we're locked in here for the rest of the night, might as well find a couple of rooms and catch some z's to pass the time.

[The shorter skeleton took a step towards his brother and looked him up and down.]

really, what are you doing here anyway?

[Okay, he understood maybe one word in five of that. Shaking his head and holding up a hand to beggar a pause.]

Organics can't digest plastic. [Except, well.....] Most of them can't, anyway.

[And the ones that can generally shouldn't be messed with, as a rule.]

I'm asking what it is. Never heard the word before today.

[personal profile] clockblock 2015-09-24 03:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[What is this. What's happening. Why is a skeleton able to talk. AND WHY DID IT CHOOSE TO SAY A PUN.

Immediately switching to voice, his irritated expression the last thing seen before the video feed ends.]


You've got some nerve calling me a monster. What even are you?

[It's hard to call anyone a monster based on physical appearance where he's from. There, it's just a difference of species.]
clockblock: ❚ commissioned (tolerance for mainstream pdf readers)

[personal profile] clockblock 2015-09-24 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Really.

[Flat and humorless.]

You all look like a mutated strain of Blarg.

[]

Logical, but irrelevant. We're better off finding it first, if there's anything to find at all.

[Nodding, though, and shifting his weight so as it produce hardly any sound when he walks. He's a felid, so it comes naturally enough.

He's also aggressively taking point.]

A species that originated on the planet Orxon. Bipedal, brachial, hairless. Except they have four fingers per hand and eyes that glow.

[Some of the edge leaves his voice. Talking about other species is fine. And since he's here, he might as well talk.]

The last I heard, they also had a penchant for hopelessly polluting their worlds.

[personal profile] htespagheti 2015-09-24 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
YES, YES. "SLEEPING". A VERY CONVENIENT EXCUSE.

HONESTLY. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I'M HERE?

MORE IMPORTANTLY. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE NOTICED. BUT. THERE ARE AN UNUSUAL AMOUNT OF HUMANS HERE. MAYBE WE SHOULDN'T BE SLEEPING. INSTEAD OF STAYING ALERT! AND POTENTIALLY BEFRIENDING THEM AND BREAKING THEIR HEARTS!


[Yeah, clearly not from a world where anyone has had a bad time.]
skelepuns: (rootin' for ya.)

[he's sticking to perma-video]

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-09-24 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[Not a monster then? Dang, and here he thought the guy could've come right out of Snowdin with all that fur. Then again, if he had come from the Underground, especially from Snowdin, Sans would've known him, so maybe that was a longshot.]

i'm a monster. a skeleton. i figured you were a monster too, since you're obviously not human.

Any advice that anyone can provide you with depends on why exactly you're having trouble sleeping.

[ Angel offers a faint, sympathetic smile. She doesn't notice any shifting shadows - flickering light from the tablets tends to create illusions of things moving when it's this late, so she simply writes it off as normal. ]

Is it the cold?
