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.

harper mcintyre | the 100

𝕙𝕖𝕒𝕥 𝕨𝕒𝕧𝕖

Harper is fairly certain she just ate fire because her whole body seems to be on fire as well. She's just added salt to her lunch because it's been a long time since she's had anything seasoned and when in Rome...

Maybe she's in Pompeii because she feels like she's melting.

She's sweaty, fanning herself as she slips outside, plucking her shirt away from her body to see if she get some air on her feverish skin. Is this a heat wave? Is this food poisoning? Is this regular poisoning? It'd be great if she had someone from home here to smack some sense into her, but alas, she'll have to resign herself to asking relative strangers.

"Is it hot in here or...?"

Hot in here, in the outdoors.

( @mcintyre )

Tell about your world. In 140 characters or less I guess.

"It's a little... balmy maybe." Or is it her who's gone balmy? John sizes her up with narrowed eyes, crossing his arms over his chest, still wearing his red scrubs marking him as a newbie. "You alright, luv?"

He doesn't seem overly concerned about her, really, more curious than anything.

[delinquere]

John is probably used to pretty teenage girls fanning themselves in his presence but for maybe the first time it's not because he's hella fly and cute. Harper is just... sweaty. She's doing great, she super loves it here.

"I'm fine. Really hot." She makes a face, deciding something. "If I start bleeding from the eyeballs, just keep me away from people. It'll be fine."

Anyway teenagers are fun.

[nifties]

He's actually going to leave the innuendo for a change, if only because he can't tell if she's legal. Let it never be said that John Constantine doesn't have standards. Of not being arrested. Not that there are laws in pocket realities so maybe he has a bit more integrity than people give him credit for, hmm? Or maybe he's just a lot more interested in why this girl is sweating so much than her pretty face. For the moment.

"Done. But you're not, bleeding from the eyeballs. I'd notice. I'm very observant."

[delinquere]

"And it's hard to miss." Even feeling shades of on fire, Harper is still as cheerful as ever, mouth twisting up in a wry smile. She's probably not dying and she survived Dr Tsing and Murphy's illness from the Grounders and, you know, Earth in general.

She is not going out because of a high fever. That is garbage.

"You think there is a spring here that isn't a hot spring? I could use a cold spring."

[nifties]

"There's a lake, but I'm not sure I'd trust it." Or much of anything around here. Still, he'll turn and start leading the way towards the bridge, not waiting to see if she'll follow. He's not being nice, he was going that way anyway!!

[delinquere]

Well of course she is going to follow, assuming he is leading her to the untrustworthy lake. She doesn't care right now, it's presumably cold and at the very least it's wet so that works for her.

"Why wouldn't you trust it?" she asks, scampering to catch up, fanning herself with her now sweaty grey scrubs again.

He's totally being nice. He's nice.

[oorah]

[delinquere]

I think I can spare 140 characters for each.

[oorah]

1. deal if you return the favor

2. the place i was before was like this people from everywhere came to 1 spot but there were monsters you couldn't make any noise or you'd die.

3. i'm from hell's kitchen new york usa earth 2016 superheroes are real and hipsters are taking over.

[delinquere]

I was born in space and I didn't touch the Earth until I was 17.

I don't know what a hipster is.

[oorah]

of course you did.

consider yourself lucky, kid,=.

[delinquere]

So you're not going to explain what they are? That's not fair.

[morphogenia]

Superheroes are real and they save the world a lot. The best one is Captain Marvel so jot that down.

[delinquere]

Superheroes don't exist where I'm from.

[ just monty. ]

[morphogenia]

Aww too bad! They're fun to watch. :)

[delinquere]

Maybe there aren't any superheroes in space.

[morphogenia]

What? No! She can go to space! Also are you in space? What's that like?

[continuable]

Zombie Apocalypse

[ I mean. It's accurate. ]

[delinquere]

Sounds gross.

[ not that harper really has a reference for zombies outside of the scary stories passed down on the ark about what any earth survivors could be after it died. they called them zombies all the same for lack of a better word. so harper's idea of zombies is kind of

from hell it came. ]

heat wave

[chemethtry]

[ Jesse is standing slouched against the wall by the entrance of the inn when the chick slips out the door. Dressed in light grey scrubs, a hand buried casually in one of the side pockets, he eyes her while taking a deep drag from the joint pinched between his thumb and finger. Watches the way she seems flustered, agitated by something. He's giving her a quick up and down appraisal, when she suddenly turns to him with that question.

A raise of his brow as he exhales a thick cloud of resiny smoke. Damn. Is it just his imagination, or is she sweating buckets? ]

Uh... Like, out here, you mean? Not that I've noticed, yo. [ Bringing the joint back up to his mouth, but not before adding: ] ...You okay?

[delinquere]

[ their scrubs match, which harper idly notes even if she doesn't really focus on that, nose wrinkling at the smoke. she doesn't ask him to put out it and he isn't blowing it at her so she doesn't care. ]

Hot, [ she mutters, fanning herself. ] Really hot. Do you have any water?

[ ignoring the fact that she just came out of the inn which has water, she is too hot to think. ]

[chemethtry]

[ A pause while taking that drag from his joint, followed a show of his hand to demonstrate he's got nothing to offer. A jerk of his thumb over his shoulder, then, back towards in the inside of the inn. ]

Whole bathrooms of running water back in there, just sayin'. [ But, pushing away from the wall, he adds: ] What d'you mean by "hot", anyway? Like... burning up with a fever hot, or ate something spicy hot?

[delinquere]

Right. Yeah. [ harper nods absently, telling herself to go back inside. but back inside doesn't have the outside breeze so she doesn't know how she feels about that. ]

Both? But I didn't eat anything spicy. [ it feels like she did, but maybe her mouth is just as warm as the rest of her and she can't tell the difference because she's melting from the inside out. ]
