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: BUMP IN THE NIGHT It's dark out, and congratulations - you're inside! What's not inside, you might ask? Monsters. Shadowy monsters that have surrounded whatever house you've taken shelter in. They can't get in... or can they? From time to time, the doors and the walls creak as if under an unbearable pressure. Who can sleep when it's like this? Maybe you should take to the network to find a distraction. Or maybe someone has advice for getting rid of those things. TWO: BRING OUT YOUR DEAD We mourn the loss of those who have died in the time between the last announcement and this one: ...is that your name on that list? It might be. Maybe you should let the others know you're not actually dead. Or, you know, if you happen to spot the name of someone you know and love on there, it might be time to ask around and see if anyone knows what happened to your dearly departed... Action Prompts THREE: KYRIE ELEISON You've found yourself in a small chapel, complete with bolted-down pews, an altar devoid of symbols, and stained glass windows depicting various saints. It's quiet... one might even say dead quiet. Which is a really awful pun to be making, considering if you follow the stairs down to the basement you'll find a morgue. Explore to your heart's content, but you'll be forced out at 7 PM. Hopefully you don't find any unfortunately familiar faces among the dead. FOUR: LIGHTS OUT Against all odds, you've managed to make it to shelter for the night. You pull the door shut behind you and turn to look at your surroundings - and that's when you see it. A ... person. Is it a person? It's hard to tell, because a moment later, you're plunged into darkness. ...better hope that's another unfortunate visitor to Norfinbury you've been locked in with, and not something more threatening.

You do look dead tired. [She offers back with a laugh, her pun game is a bit off at the moment. She finally moves to take a seat next to Sans on the pew. The boss monster leaves him enough room to wiggle around as he sees fit.

There are many questions she wants to ask, but asking feels wrong in this moment. She just wants to be happy to see a friend again.]

[bonefriend]

You've got me there. [ it's... true... and honestly it's practically impossible to tell with that skeleton smile, but. ugh he's glad she's around. danger and all. probably a selfish thing to say, but he's too lazy to overthink it.

he just grins up at her while prone on the pews, tucking his arms behind his head. ]

But I mean it. You're a sight for sore eyesockets, Tori.

[inruins]

The feeling is mutual. [She reaches out to pat his slippered foot fondly.] I was worried I was alone here. It is very selfish I know, but- I've just gotten used to company again.

[She realizes that is a bit too honest to keep things light hearted as she had wanted to. It's clear enough on her features as she tries to shift topics.] I hope you've been staying well.

[bonefriend]

[ he finally sits up properly, grin flickering momentarily as Toriel confides her own loneliness. if he had any confidence in his comforting skills, he'd try.

the one thing he could offer to cheer anyone up, though? jokes. the best fall-back. ]

Hey, there's no shame in feeling bonely. Anyway, you've bumped into me now, right? [ grins guilelessly up at her-- ] I'm keeping it cool here. It's snow problem, if you get my drift.

[ ......... no, it's dangerous and a struggle for survival here, way to go sans. he'll warn her. later. ]

[inruins]

[The series of puns earn a laugh from the boss monster. Loud bleating kind of laugh. Hardly dignified but Toriel doesn't really care.] I see! Good as cold, then!

I hope you can snow me the ropes later.

[bonefriend]

[ not going to lie, he loves goofy laughter and just snickers into a bony fist at her response. a lack of supplies is nothing compared to lack of joke-offs. ] Hey, I wouldn't flake out of something like that. I'd be on real thin ice with you then, huh?

[inruins]

I'm glad, it wouldn't be ice of you to leave me out in the cold. [Toriel is just relieved they've fallen into this. The familiarity makes her more comfortable than anything.]

I would hardly expect a chilly reception from you of all monsters.
