Prompts

Happy anniversary, villagers! Buckle up!

1. HEAT WAVE - Poor you. All you were trying to do was get yourself a little something to eat from the kitchen at the inn. Maybe you cooked it up yourself (The inn does, after all, have an electric stove — FANCY!), or maybe you just grabbed some leftovers. By accident or on purpose, you ended up with way more RED SALT in there than you maybe should have, and this is no ordinary seasoning. Whether you like things eye-wateringly spicy or not, it's August, you're sweating buckets, and it's only getting worse.


2. SKUNK DRUNK - Isn't that just the way? You're out and about, minding your own business, and you get sprayed by a BROWN SKUNK. The good news? It doesn't stink like a normal skunk. The also possibly good news, depending on who you ask? You're now in for about 5 hours of being very, very friendly. (Just remember to keep the test drive PG!)


3. BRAIN CANDY - Whether you made it to the anniversary party or not, you've gotten your hands on a piece of leftover candy from the big bash. Careful, though, these treats are more than meets the eye: Whatever COLOR it was, you've now taken on the associated personality traits. (Not the power, just the traits.) At least it only lasts 10 minutes.


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
- 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 in your SUBJECT LINE.

[succored]

Evening better for you then?

What did you do before you came here?

[connatural]

Probably. Trying to readjust given the lack of nightlife here.

Security and acquisitions for a private firm. You?

[succored]

It might not have mixed drinks and EDM, but hopefully it'll be a decent substitute.

Sounds exciting. What did you usually have to acquire?

And studying to become an ER doctor.

[connatural]

EDM? Most of my nightlife is less mixed drinks and more fun. At least to me.

Whatever my boss points me at. Usually those that need medical attention, or who are without help in this world.

You can get that, right? That there's some that won't come in for medical help but doesn't change they need it, you know?</font

[succored]

Now I'm curious. So what do you do for fun other than sparring?

I get it. That's pretty selfless of you, looking out for those who need help.

[connatural]

Harass people in the criminal underworld. Practice at the range. Ride recklessly through town. Depends on my mood.

You? Do share.

It's what we do. What my mom does. So we try and do what we can for others.

[succored]

That first one sounds like quite the hobby. You ever get in over your head?

Nothing half as exciting. Mostly go to concerts, go running, or read books.

Not everyone would see it that way. Your mom sounds like a good person. You both do.

[connatural]

Where you get the best information. And yeah, from time to time. Always found my way out one way or another.

Nothing wrong with that. What do you do? For a living.

She is. An amazing woman. I'm just the person that does the grunt work.

[succored]

Working as an EMT. It's demanding and fast paced, but I love it.

Hey, someone has to do the grunt work. Without that, it might be more difficult for your mom to be amazing.

[connatural]

Well aren't you useful around here then? Good to know.

You're kind. I like that. Thank you.

[succored]

Yup, so if you manage to get in a scuffle with some shady criminals here, you know who to turn to.

You're not so bad yourself, so no need to thank me. It's always good to have people to trust in these kind of situations.

[connatural]

Promise I will. I won't even hurt them too much first.

We'll talk soon.
