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.

It quickly becomes clear that there's no threat and that Bull is unharmed. The tension running through Steve dissipates and curiosity takes it's place. Tilting his head, he watches as lightning sparks from Bull's fingers to the door. Eyes going wide, he grins at the other man. "I take it this wasn't a special talent you could do before...?"

Bull shakes his head. He would not have been where he is had be been a mage. "Only mages can do that in my world. What, is it common here?" He studies Steve for a moment and then glances around to see if there is anyone else who seems to be able to do something similar.

"I wouldn't say common..." Steve shakes his head in the negative. "So what's happened to give you that gift... Eat any funny tasting fruit lately?"

"No, I was just walking through the fields, so unless there is anything out there that could do it." He looks around, then he remembers the flower crown. "This maybe?"

Looking up at the flower crown, Steve nods. "A while back certain fruit was making people mute, so flowers that give you lightning skills really doesn't seem all that far fetched. What happens if you take it off? Can you still do it?"

Bull takes the crown off and puts it aside before he tries to do it again. The lighting still crackles from his fingers and he shakes his head. "That is odd."

"Unless there's a delayed affect or proximity related to it... " Steve narrows his eyes suspiciously at Bull. "You didn't eat any of it did you?"

Bull shakes his head. "Maybe it just lingers. The easiest way to test would be for you to put the crown on."Then he wouldn't be alone in this at least.

Looking at the crown, Steve raises an eyebrow - it's not really his thing. But then Bull has a point, it would be the best way to test it. Taking the crown in his hand, Steve aims the other at the door... When the sparks come flying out he jumps back.

"Holy shit!" Then he grins. "Where did you find these?"

The Iron Bull laughs. "I can show you." Then he grins and reaches for Steve to see if the sparks would fly between the two of them. "Maybe we should get some more, hm?

As Bull reaches out, a small arch of electricity jolts between them. Steve's grin widens, he can see this could be very useful. "I would say that's a very good idea. How far out do we need to go?"
