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?

[ there are still some surprises left in this snow abyss, and Ed is traveling when he hears the too-familiar voice. it’s a voice that sends prickles down his spine, because he shouldn’t be here.

of all people, Norfinbury had to drag Colonel Roy Mustang along for the ride? It’s like a bad dream, another torture device. bad enough that he and Al had been forced into a place like this, but Amestris needed the Colonel at the very least. Ed didn’t – not here.

he’s just about to turn the feed on, to offer some help, but quickly changes his tune. ]


You could freeze to death and you're worried about women?!

[Well, that was a voice he was not expecting to hear, although in retrospect it seemed only fitting that Ed would be here if Alphonse was as well. Still, the thought that so many of them were being brought to this place, and incapable of using their alchemy, was a little unsettling, and only served to make this place even more frustrating.]

As I said, I'd hate for someone to be left out here alone in a time like this. [Despite the circumstances, he maintains a nonchalant, and slightly smug, tone in his voice. The sound of crunching snow indicates that he's already on the move.] Besides, the more people there are, the better our chances are at surviving these conditions.

[He pauses, the smirk growing even more.]

Not to mention the necessity of keeping each other warm.

[ seriously how does the guy do it? the immeasurable calm and arrogance, the air of nonchalance. it's enough to send Ed's blood to a boil. bad enough he had to deal with the cold and the monsters and what have you, but now Mustang. ]

Right, just see how long it takes you to find someone to 'keep warm'.

[ because Ed's been here a while and he knows a lot of people and can easily warn them off. not that he will. for all that he dislikes Mustang's presence, he's still useful to have around. and he's from home. the fact that someone else from Amestris has arrived here is troubling. ]

Besides, you can just use your flame alchemy to keep yourself warm. [ so it's a test. does Mustang's alchemy work here, or is it gone, too? ]

Come now, Fullmetal. Who exactly do you think you're talking to?

[AS IF I WOULDN'T GET A GIRL. PLEASE.

There's a pause at Ed's second statement. The true meaning behind it isn't lost on him, and the answer is more frustrating than he would like to admit. He hasn't been here that long, but it only took a few frustrating attempts to realize his alchemy wasn't working.

But like hell if he was going to admit that to Fullmetal...]


So tell me, exactly how long have you been here?
