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?
[This is getting more and more disturbing, but then he mentions Aerith and Yuffie. Aerith. Tifa inhales sharply. It doesn't make sense, that he can know all of them and she doesn't remember him at all, but Aerith's loss is still so fresh that Tifa can't even focus on that. Aerith's body, covered in insects... The thought is so horrifying that her mind recoils from it immediately. She has to take a moment to collect herself before continuing. ]
There's nothing there.
[She's repeating herself, but this time she sounds shaken.]
It's just because you've stayed in one place for too long.
[He curls on the couch trying to press his forehead with the (for him) uncomfortable mess that are its pillows. He remembers something about not staying in a cabin for too long and maybe if he doesn't look at the girls he won't completely freak out. At least until morning when he will be compelled to abandon the house and find another shelter before the fever goes away...]
Are you sure? I... It's possible. Why did I stay here for so long anyway? ... But it makes sense, I spent so long in this room, if they arrived I... I mean, it's not like you can't ignore Yuffie, right? And I would have... you see when someone kills someone else right in front of you, right?
[Leon is so confused he doesn't even notice her tone of voice, but he seems a bit calmer now.]
[You definitely notice when someone is killed in front of you. And the way he talks about Yuffie cements in her mind that he really does know her. Does this place tamper with memories or something? She can't remember ever meeting a Leon, though, and she's certain she would remember someone with such a prominent scar.
When he apologies, she shakes her head and smiles. She's mostly gotten herself under control now.]
No, it's all right. We'll just have to get you through the night. Stay strong, okay?
[She's willing to sit and talk with him for as long as he likes, although she's a little nervous about saying something wrong and making him think she's some sort of hallucination again.]
[Okay, he can try to trust her. Her voice still feels familiar and she... she loved Yuffie and Aerith when thy were alive, didn't she? Oh, Gods, the smell of their bodies- no, he had to stay focused ]
Yes. Thank you, Tifa. I will try to sleep and ignore... them. Can you just.. keep the tablet with you? I may need some company. And be careful, you can trust no one here.
[Not going to happen, someone here is going to spend the night walking around and mourning his girls, often waking up people to ask what they can see in certain dark corners of the room. Sora, Riku, Cid, Cloud, Rinoa... everyone will show up at some point, some will even talk with him. It's going to be a long night for everyone who is willingly to listen.]
[ooc: Shall we eventually skip to the next day? When he's lucid again?]
[She's not sure about not trusting anyone. She doesn't think any of them are going to get through this without a bit of trust, but it's not really the best time to argue that point.]
[There are sounds, short videos and empty messages sent randomly during the night, he can be heard screaming at some point, then only silence as soon as the doors are finally open.
Another video starts later, in the evening, and this time it's a private recording for Tifa: he is sitting in what seems a different house and he definitely regained control over himself. The man still seems a bit awkward, embarassed perhaps, but who wouldn't be afer last night?]
I was experimenting. Moving back and forth from a building to another, only sleeping in the same building everytime- it didn't work.
[He frowns and looks away from the camera, the images of Yuffie and Aerith are still vivid in his mind and it's not pleasant even if he knows it was all a massive Hallucination. He's sure he saw Cid and Rinoa's heartlesses at some point, Sora called from help, but his mind was already so broken it only took bits from those visions. His sisters? Their corpses? Shit, heartless killed people everyday but they never left dead bodies behind, how long had it been from the last time he saw one?]
I won't repeat the same mistake. [He pauses for a moment and sighs] Thank you for your support, Tifa. I didn't know you were trapped here as well. Have you see anyone else?
[Experimenting? Tifa wouldn't do it, herself. She understands, maybe, wanting to see if what everyone is saying is true or just a rumor. But she doesn't feel it's worth the risk.
She shakes her head at his thanks. She'd want someone to do the same for her, and they have to help each other to get through this. But there's that familiar tone again, and now that the cabin fever is gone, she's not sure what to think of it. With Zack being alive, and the situation with Cloud, she doesn't know how to approach this. Is it her memories that are wrong? How can so many of them have experienced things differently, or not at all?
She decides to probe a bit before just jumping in and telling him.]
Zack and Cloud are here. I haven't seen anyone else, have you?
[If he recognizes their names, as well, she is going to be deeply thrown off.]
[Oh, he still has to realize that's not his Tifa. He knows so many people from Tifa's world and at the same time he never met them... it will be fun to figure out what's going on and it will only add to the general confusion. Leon seems very pratical for now, he just listens and nods- he is not happy with what he just heard but he's keeping a neutral expression for now.]
Cloud is here too? [Who is left home? Aerith isn't a fighter and Yuffie is a healer and supporter, with Tifa and Cloud in the city... who is left protecting home? Leon doesn't like it one bit.] Stick with him, keep this Zack person around only if you can really trust him and be careful. I know you're both strong but enemies here seem to be worse than the ones we have back home and they seem immune to physical attacks.
[He sighs, if they're all in Norfinbury they may as well try to work together, after all they've been a team for a long time... right?] Is Cloud traveling with you? I'd like to speak with him as well.
