Prompts

• FULL VIEW - The Observers really do their best to make each villager's wrist device as user-friendly for them as possible, but with all new tech, sometimes there's a learning curve... And sometimes, you just screw up. Like now, when you've accidentally triggered the video option and called someone completely random on the network without realizing it. Yep, you're just going about whatever, totally oblivious. Here's to hoping that your clothes are fully on, and that the person on the other end is nice enough to speak up sooner rather than later.
• SHADOW OF A DOUBT - Being the intrepid (or just bored) villager you are, you've gone exploring and found yourself a very interesting (if moderately spooky) cave. What lurks in the dark? Might it be some shadow dust to turn you intangible? Or perhaps a cave wolf with all of its little goblin-monkey friends? Maybe, just maybe, it's both.
• ILL AT EASE - 'Tis the season for the common cold, and you've got it. Unfortunately, the village doesn't have a corner drug store, so you're achy, miserable, maybe a little feverish. The good news is a little time in bed should do the trick. That is, if you're not the sort who has to be bullied to take care of yourself anytime you get sick. Either way, maybe you'll be lucky enough to find someone to tuck you in and bring you some chicken soup.
• WILDCARD - Choose your own adventure. Maybe play powers roulette.
• NETWORK - All characters are fitted with a smart watch-like device on their left wrist, which they can use to send text and video messages to other villagers. Text and/or video are allowed, any length. Display names may be changed by characters on the fly, but anyone can tap to see someone's real full name.

Please list your CHARACTER NAME, CANON & PROMPT NAMES in your SUBJECT LINE.

Whenever he does feel up to it, Picard is certainly more than willing to explain. It's not likely to be a comforting conversation, especially when no one's managed to find a way back home, just yet. But having been in the village for as long as he has has lent itself fairly well to having at least a passing idea of what to expect from the village.

"It's not impossible that it's a pocket dimension? But if it is, it's one where the passing of time is drastically different to the reality that you or I would know - while I haven't experienced myself, the reports I've heard from the people who do manage to leave and return is that next-to-no time has passed in their reality of origin."

Which doesn't make the theory impossible, mind. But it does through a significant wrench into it.

"Additionally, there are people present here from a wide variety of realities, wider even than I might have thought possible before my own arrival here. If it is a pocket dimension, then it's one that touches an extremely broad selection of realities, and I'm not certain how sustainable that would be."
