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?

[The fact that Sans at least is giving the surface appearance that he thinks they might be able to make it to morning is reassuring in its own way. Frisk had been holding on to that hope, so to hear it from someone else.

And where they were now... wasn't that far off. Frisk didn't have very many layers, unfortunately. But if they crawled a little further back, the half-fallen floor above actually made decent protective barrier, almost a lean-to like structure. And so Frisk does just that.]


J-j-jokes would be great.

[Settling down against the wall, Frisk re-sets up their tablet then jams their fingers under their armpits. They almost immediately regret it - their fingers are freezing]
skelepuns: (always smiling.)

[Sans wanted to hope that maybe it was possible, to at least last for one night. Even if it had never happened before, there was still time to break that precedent, right? Sans wasn't aware of how bad Frisk's clothing situation was, though... Well, ignorance is bliss.]

alright, stay with me frisk. we're gonna be at this til morning.

you ever hear about the most famous skeleton rock star? his name was pelvis presley.
despiteeverything: (/flex)

I g-get to stay up all night?

[The thought of what Toriel would say to that is funny in and of itself. Well, the thought if they were both back home and circumstances weren't what they were. But it was hard to stay determined thinking about circumstances as they were, so Frisk doesn't.

Once the snicker the joke elicits dies, though, they start thinking about Toriel, and that reminds them of how she and Sans used to tell jokes to each other, though. Maybe...]


M-my turn?
Edited (BECAUSE FRISK LAUGHED AND I FORGOT TO SAY THAT also making text flow better) 2015-10-24 05:47 (UTC)
skelepuns: (you have no idea how this feels.)

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-10-25 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
kid, you don't 'get' to stay up all night. you gotta. falling asleep... ain't really an option for you, do you understand?

[Falling asleep would mean they'd lost.]

yeah, sure thing, if you think you got what it takes.
despiteeverything: (it's a family tradition)

[personal profile] despiteeverything 2015-10-25 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Okay.

[In all honesty they were pretty sure they did remember hearing something about how cold and getting sleepy was bad. Maybe back home, or since they got here. Which... probably meant how tired they were already wasn't a good thing.

For now though, jokes. Like the ones that Frisk had gotten used to hearing on a daily basis back home.]


Knock Kn-knock?
skelepuns: (that's hilarious.)

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-10-25 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Sans couldn't even remember how it worked, given he had to learn all of this stuff fresh since he didn't get hypothermia back before he was stuck into this place. But sleep... he did hear bad stories about freezing to death in your sleep, and he wasn't going to take the chance.]

heh, who's there?
despiteeverything: (but not too close)

[personal profile] despiteeverything 2015-10-25 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Ya.

[He's probably heard this one before, really.]
skelepuns: (free shrugs.)

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-10-25 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
[Sans didn't even care, he'd take all of the bad jokes in the world if it meant keeping this kid around.

On top of which, it was still pretty charming.]


'ya' who?
despiteeverything: (/flex)

[personal profile] despiteeverything 2015-10-25 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
[They crack a smile, even as another shiver wracks their frame.]

You must be r-r-really happy to be here.

heh heh, well, ain't that the truth?

[The irony of that joke was not lost on him, of course.]

alright my go. knock-knock.

[They'd thought it'd be better than any the snow and ice puns they'd remembered. Somehow those didn't seem to be in good taste at the moment.]

Wh-who's there?
skelepuns: (living the dream.)

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-10-25 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
sans.

[Keeping it real original, of course.]

[Biting back the urge to say "I know that" with a small grin. Let's not ruin the joke now]

Sans who?
skelepuns: (free shrugs.)

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-10-25 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
sans you're home, you mind letting me inside? it's pretty bone-chilling out here.

[Hey that should be their line right about now. Frisk giggles softly anyways.

Makes them really wish they were in Hotland right now. Or hugging a Vulkin. it takes them a few moment's silence to remember that it's their turn now. Um...]


Th-this one's got t-t-two parts.

[This one was one of the ones Frisk could remember hearing when they were little, around the school yard. Frisk hadn't been terribly popular there but there were some jokes that everybody heard.]

H-how d'you catch a un-nique rabbit?
skelepuns: (goofy grin.)

[personal profile] skelepuns 2015-10-26 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey, irony could be a bit funny, and maybe making light of the situation would help them both forget how horrible the situation really was. That was how Sans usually approached these things...]

heh, a unique rabbit? you got me there, kid. how do you catch a unique rabbit?
despiteeverything: (actually a rock star)

[personal profile] despiteeverything 2015-10-26 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[And it is working! Frisk is having a harder time focusing on the cold. Unfortunately it's being helped a long in part by hypothermia - Frisk thinks their shivers are starting to get less bad, which gives the deception that they're in less trouble.

They just... gotta stay determined right? They'll get through this. They still do wish they could hug a Vulkin right now though.]


U-unique up on it!

[Pause for the imaginary rimshot.]

And h-how do you catch a tame one?
