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.

[oorah]

you're tellin me

anything else you want to know?

[unraisehell]

Other than the obvious "how the fuck do I go home?"

Anything you feel is pressing in terms of life/death or basic human needs.

[oorah]

if i knew that you'd be the first one i'd tell alright?

inn's got food and clothes if you didn't know. sometimes there's an empty room. most of the houses are empty too and free for the taking. don't go too far off into the woods alone. don't get too comfortable. you'll be fine.

[unraisehell]

That sounds distressingly like home.

[oorah]

i doubt this place is like where you're from

[unraisehell]

Well the tech level's a little behind and nobody here hates me yet so that's different I guess.

So just to be clear this isn't some weird Shamalan-y cult in the woods and there's like a highway just beyond the forest right?

[oorah]

that wouldn't be much of a twist

[unraisehell]

that's kinda why the Village sucked, I guess

[oorah]

this village sucks too. give it time.

[unraisehell]

anything you'd advise to make it suck less?

here, not the shitty movie.

[oorah]

find something to do. something you're good at. something that won't break you.

[unraisehell]

all the things i'm good at already are going to break me in one way or another.

any pottery classes up in this bitch?
