Prompts

Summer is here, villagers! Sunny skies, warm weather and plenty of weirdness are on the horizon. Don't forget your sunscreen!

1. THE MILK FOR FREE - Somehow, someway, you have been wrangled into milking one of the GROFFLES recently rounded up by your fellow villagers. Maybe you felt guilty for not helping, or maybe you owe someone scary money. Point is, it's just you, a bucket, and your green milk-giving friend. Just a tip: Groffles are good-natured, but you probably shouldn't squeeze too hard.


2. LIGHTNING ROD - Earlier today, you made your way into the upper foothills — Were you hunting? Maybe just roaming? — and you came into contact with a BLUE LILY. Maybe you thought it was so pretty you've carried it back to the village with you. If your house didn't have electricity before, it definitely does now!


3. MEET CUTE - It's a classic: You've gone down into the 6I INN'S dirt-walled root cellar off the kitchen. Maybe you needed supplies or were dropping off some fresh produce. Whatever the case, someone's followed you down for a similar reason... and the door has jammed shut behind them. Seriously, it's not budging. Enjoy getting to know your new best friend in the cozy light of the furnace!


4. WILDCARD - Choose your own adventure. Maybe play powers roulette.

Texts

All characters are fitted with a smart watch-like device on their left wrist, which they can use to send text messages to other villagers.

- Texts may only be 140 characters long
- No video or voice, text only
- No usernames, everyone is listed by their name

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

Comments

[righteously]

There's a loud, solid, dull thwack as the ax head imbeds itself into a tree, but it's the sound that follows afterward which startles him around: the sound of a basket dropping and things rolling askew from it. He whirls, eyes wide, caught frozen for a second in an utter oh shit moment. It only lasts a second though before he springs into action, dropping to help her scoop her belongings back into the container.

"I am so friggin' sorry," He scrambles earnestly, apologetically. "That- I don't know what the hell that was, it just- came right the hell off, didn't it?"

[pharmakis]

He spoke in terms she didn't recognize, but the alarm was genuine, easing her initial nerves and shock. It was a twist of fate, not intentional, she told herself. Though she knew how harsh the fates could be.

A few of the flowers were damaged and no use to her now, so instead of putting them back in her basket, she simply left them on the ground. His frantic efforts allowed her a moment to regard him and calm herself again. "No harm done." Thankfully. How fragile mortals were. That axe would normally cut her skin, which would instantly he heal itself again. But now, her body would crumple and collapse, as though it were nothing more than a ceramic bowl.

"You must have been focused on your work." Chopping in anger? "We know now it needs to be repaired at least?"
