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.

[ 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. ]
