Prompts

Happy anniversary, villagers! Buckle up!

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.

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!)

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.

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.

"Most here don't know what they're in for," she points out, rolling her eyes as she shakes her head. "And I don't want to see any of them find out either," she adds, holding onto that at the very least. She isn't sure if it is a concern, but if people like her that know how to watch for these things don't take the chances, what happens to the rest of them? She isn't going to find out. Not if she can avoid it.

"Isn't that comforting." Huffing a sigh as she considers that. "A warning sign might be nice," she notes, though it's frustration with herself more than anything else. Learning was one thing, rushing in was another.

"So despite how they talk around the Inn about things being normal here without weapons or abilities or anything of the like, they just leave a machine laying about that gives out abilities to those that never had and have no idea how to handle it." Kind of herself included in that because who knows how many people felt that rumbling. "Not to mention, let me guess, giving you full access to anywhere you want with a whim and a wish?"

Not reassuring at all. And she's isn't sure which bothers her more. Civilians being able to play with abnormal abilities, or him having access to teleportation in a place where best she could tell, no one could stop him if he wanted to harm others. Yeah, definitely a rock and a hard place thought.
