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?

Y'know, Cecil, I don't think I've ever heard someone be that psyched about freezing to death. Gotta admire that attitude.

[He sounds more amused than impressed, though.]

And hey, I hear freezing isn't such a bad way to go, all things considered. Definitely not even close to the worst.

I know, right?

[He sounds pleased as punch about this. A fruity punch, probably containing pineapple and a hint of coconut.]

The hidden and mostly silent administrators of our forced captivity are so generous that way, it's easy to see why so many people are choosing Norfinbury as their involuntary incarceration spot this year. I know that I'll be giving it five stars on Yelp.

[youarethebandits]

Ehh, I dunno if I'd rate it that high. I mean, sure, it has its advantages. Not being on Pandora is a pretty big one. But the lack of electronics makes it kind of a dump, if you ask me.

[The low level of technology is making it so difficult for Jack to take over. :c]

[staytunednext]

That is a definite downer, but I am sure that the administration has very good reasons for why such technology is banned. I am sure they have good reasons why we cannot update our tumblr blogs or, say, telephone our boyfriends.

[Does he sound mildly annoyed? Maybe mildly.]

[youarethebandits]

Yeah, the greatest reasons. Experimentation, torture, just being frickin' insane... Hell, maybe we're really lucky and it's a combination of all three!

[staytunednext]

It would probably be dangerous to speculate.

[But do go on.]

It may be that we are chosen for sacrifice or experimentation not through a random lottery or the threads of fate that bind us unmercifully tightly, but by our words and thoughts of dissent.
