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!

You -- uh... ...friendly??

[ There's an upward lilt in his voice as he tries to project his own friendly intentions, but he's backing away at the same time. The hologram stays put and sets his hands on his digital hips. Not speaking for now, just observing. ]

*Friendly? Well, he wasn't planning on violence at the moment, he was just curious. That was close enough, right?

He lowers his arm and nods.*

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?

*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.*

[ "D'aww. He really likes you." ]

No??

[ Unfortunately, Rhys is easily spooked. He's backing up again, almost tripping this time, and he pulls his cybernetic arm to his chest, as if sensing Brian's intent. ]

Well, whatever, Mr. No-Name, just -- say something. You're kind of really freaking me out.

*He shakes his head again, because that is totally the best way to communicate "I'd prefer not to talk, thanks" to someone who's clearly afraid of you.

He does stop moving forward, though. And points at that nifty hand then cants his head.*

My... hand?

[ Rhys seems to calm down a little, confusion overshadowing everything else.

"Yes, genius. Your new bestie wants a look at the cybernetics. You're dealing with a bunch of cavemen, remember?" ]


...oh, yeah, uh. I guess you can look, just. Don't touch, okay? Or come any closer.

[ He extends his arm and rolls up the sleeve of his coat a bit. The flashlight is off, but a light is still running up the palm, illuminating much of the sleek metal limb without blinding Mr. No-Name. ]

*He can't get a very good look if he can't come any closer, can he? He would line face as Rhys so hard if that didn't mean removing the mask. Or maybe he's doing it under the mask and it just can't be seen.

Either way he peers at the hand as its held out. He knows what prosthetics are but is pretty sure this is not how they usually work. Its fascinating, so he's just gonna take a couple steps closer to see it better.*

Wow, nice job at following basic directions!

[ Rhys can't go any further back. He hits a wall and holds both hands up.

"Ahhh, solid obstacles. What a pain. Shame you can't do this!" Jack steps halfway through the wall Rhys is pressed against, just to rub it in. "Yep, that would really come in handy. Oh well, I'm sure you have a plan. Right, Rhysie?"

Rhysie's plan is, apparently, to shove at Brian. At least it's... better than trying to meld with the wall? ]

*When Rhys backs up he stops moving and holds up his hands. See? No weapons, he just wants a look. Maybe a touch. Its really very interesting, you'd think this guy would be used to this by now.

He backs away, out of reach, when Rhys enacts his clever plan. This is getting to be more trouble than he originally expected. He's going to have to figure out exactly how to handle this. Was it better to just let the other man go and move on or come back later, or would it be easier to try and overpower him so he can look on his own terms?*

[ Since the shoving failed, he's sent stumbling forwards, but, miraculously, he catches himself. As soon as he does, he bolts. The Plan had a second phase.

The second phase is just running as fast as humanly/cyborg...ically possible. He doesn't have the best start, but good lord, he is trying!! Super!!! Hard!!!!! ]

*He just sighs and shakes his head as Rhys bolts. Its too much trouble to chase the weird guy so he doesn't bother. Maybe some other time.*
