Prompts

1. STAYING POWER - Go down to the bunker, they said. You can get yourself amazing powers from the vending machine, they said. Well, you've done that, and you've made your choice, but one thing nobody told you was that unless it's a power you're familiar with, you might be on a teensy bit of a learning curve when it comes to keeping it under control. You have a week to figure it out without killing anyone; have fun!


2. FORGIVE AND... - You poor thing, you've gotten into some dust moths. Not that you can remember that, because depending on how big that swarm was and how quickly you got out of it, you might not remember much at all. Better hope somebody's got some Forget Me Nots on hand.


3. HIT & RUN - Life in the village can be pretty sleepy... until suddenly, it's not. Were you being a troublemaker? Were you disturbing the local wildlife? Because it's now disturbing you, chasing you down the street in front of everyone. Maybe it's a herd of chupapaca or a swarm of fireflies. Or maybe you went old school and it's just a really pissed off badger. Godspeed and good luck.


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.

Hawke studies him as he talks. It must be interesting, to have that kind of certainty. She's the opposite, uncertain at every turn, making it all up as she goes along. The big picture was never her strong suit, which is probably why she never saw the disasters of her life coming. "I've always leaned toward the world is chaos without any logic or reason, but yours does sound better and less nihilistic."

She crosses her arms and shrugs shoulders. "I'm sure you could teach plenty. It wouldn't need to be balanced as long as there's some effort involved, yeah?" Who knows what balanced looks like, really. She certainly doesn't. "I've been offering hunting lessons. Seems like the thing to do. Though I haven't figured out all the options around here worth eating." They had to eat though, and Hawke didn't mind providing it.

I've got this one linked, and the NSFW one. Got some people looking over it before I submit. >.>

The way she spoke at first - having looked into the Apple, having heard the plans of the Templars - put the thought into his mind, and he spoke it without a moment's thought: "You would fit well with my Order."

But then he knew he'd need to explain.

"We've only begun the fight, but we are determined to keep humanity free. There are those who would control our thoughts and our actions by force. Now that we know of them, it's become our task to defend against them - to keep a degree of chaos instead of rigid order. Some structure is good."

Altaïr motioned to the town beyond. "Even here, there is order in providing for others, in keeping the community strong until the full purpose can be found. Order in teaching one another skills so we all may survive. But we teach, we learn, and we act of our will instead of being forced."
