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.

Stepping closer, Evie reached out to take her brother's arm. Even just leaning against him made being upright a little more manageable at the moment. And if she got him sick, well, it wouldn't be the first time some illness had jumped from one twin to the other. She tilted her head up to watch his face, any attempt at looking thoughtful interupted by the sniffle of her nose.

"Nonsense. I'm delightful. You're the difficult one." she sniffled, leaning her head against his shoulder. "If you don't tell me I'll figure it out anyway."

Jacob is not at all worried about getting sick. Not if it means helping Evie, even if he won't admit it. Admitting it would give her the upper hand, and he can't do that.

"It's funny how you define those words," he teases, grinning at her. Though it's slightly hollow at those words, and he leans his head in against hers. "It's nothing really. I was expecting too much for a man like me. Perhaps the universe reminding me of my place." He's a man for fun, not for emotions.

She leaned up to press her head more firmly against his. It was a connection between them, together even as they started to live apart. Because no matter where he was or where she was, there was always them. And to hear words like that from him, it broke her heart in a way that it never did for herself. "Then the universe is wrong." she answered, her voice a bit nasally from congestion. "And you're going to spite it by proving it wrong."

[relentlessness]

Despite all of their sharp words, and the fights that might come between them, none of that matters when they decide it no longer matters. In other words, they can fight as much as they want, but in the end, they are twins, connected, and love one another.

"Oh hush," he says in a low voice, giving her a one armed hug. "It's nothing to be worried about," he murmurs, guiding her towards the house, taking their time so she doesn't find herself coughing and choking once more. "Not all of us can find an assassin like your dear Mr Green."
