[meme] open voice-testing for prospective players



Compiled from various memes at [community profile] bakerstreet . Deal with it.

How it works:
1. Post as your character with Name | Canon if applicable | Preferences (as in whether you'd prefer no smut, etc.) in the subject line. You can choose the scene and prompt yourself or leave it for others to decide.
2. Others respond to your prompt or after going to RNG and entering numbers 1- 15 for a prompt.
3. Respond and play it out!
4. Play nice though. If someone doesn't want to play something out, respect their wishes.

You may use threads from this meme for your application samples!

1. Morning After; The morning after. You guys may have been drunk or completely sober, or maybe the victim of some unfortunately laced magical brew. You may remember or have no clue who this is in your bed or why they're there. But they're there. And you guys did it. Is this a total disaster or a blissful recollection of a night of magic?

2. Popo Shut Us Down; Oh crap, get to the getaway car! You may be innocent or have actually broken the law, but either way, you've got to escape those sirens because the cops don't know or care that you've got a license to kill. Car, boat, chopper, whatever you want, just flee the scene together and fast!

3. Anger Management; Maybe they said something insulting to you, maybe you just don't like their face, but either way you're hit with the overwhelming urge to punch this person in the face. So you do. And everything rolls on from there. Do you get in an overly dramatic fight full of fiery explosions? Is a friendship shattered? Who knows!

4. Wasted Together; You're drunk. The pair of you. So drunk. Shenanigans ensue.

5. Did the Riddler Design This Lair? You were on a mission, but now you've ended up trapped in a locked room. This room could be a kitchen or it could be a secret laboratory or something in between. Either way, you and your companion are forced to solve inane puzzles to get free...though the next room might be more of the same. Seek a way out!

6. Haunting the Fuck Out of You; You're haunting the land of the living as a ghost, and the only person who can see you is...them. Why are you haunting the land of the living instead of wandering off to the afterlife? I have no clue. It could be unfinished business or revenge, or it could just be a big case of it sounded like a good idea at the time.

7. Groucho Glasses. You're now in a very silly disguise of some kind because maybe there were budget cuts for this mission (Don Paolo you are not) and you just bumped into the other person.

8. OH NO YOU DI'INT. You're hungry and snuck down to the castle kitchen for a midnight snack. The fridge is empty. Someone just made themselves a sandwich with the last of the food, leaving only saltine crackers and a mostly empty jar of mayonnaise behind. Get them.

9. It's a Trap!! You have just reached the end of some ancient, mystical ruins in search of the magical artifact hidden deep within. Weird shit happens as soon as you try to take it (collapsing ruins/boulders/Indiana Jones theme optional).

10. Curses! You have angered a wizard/witch/powerful faerie/omnipotent entity/incredibly stereotypical gypsy/all of the above, somehow, because you're probably a horrible person. The next day you discover you've been cursed. The nature of the curse and whether it affected one or both of you is up to you.

11. That Old Black Magic; You have acquired a magical spellbook and decide to test it on yourself or someone else. The results are probably not as desired.

12. Watch Out, They Bite; You were bitten by a werewolf/cat/bugbear/dog/t-rex/tiger/dragon/whatever the hell else you want to have encountered on a mission. There may or may not be some additional side effects.

13. Cue the Angry Mob; It wasn't magic this time, but rather a science experiment gone horribly, horribly wrong.

14. Texts From Last Night; Either go to tfln, and select one, or make up one of your own!

15. Tied Together; you're suddenly stuck together, probably with someone you hate. What are you tied together by? Could be a chinese finger trap, could be some invisible force, could be handcuffs. Dealwithit.gif.

[CONGRATS. Obviously, you have been seen with Cael after SHE'S done something illegal and now... IDK. You can either throw her to the cops or help her escape.]

If you rat me out, I know people. [Yes, this is an angry fifteen year old girl in your face. DON'TCHA LOVE IT?]

[Val'drin sounds remarkably casual about your ill deeds, either way. More amused than anything.] Are you insinuating that if I inform the police of your behavior, I'll spend tomorrow evening sleeping with the fishes? Because that's ... almost delightfully charming, really, in this day and age. I haven't wrestled with the mafioso in ... oh, decades. [He leans forward with conspiratorial interest] Do they still do that number with the horse head or did Hollywood take all the fun out of the element of surprise?

[ R U SRS.]

....What? No... What? [Her brain is short-circuiting here. Why are you a crazy man?]

Pity. I always thought that held a certain charm of its own.

[He looks her over appraisingly] But on second thought, you hardly have any Italian features, and you look too young to be married into the family, so I suppose that means your threats are meant to pertain to something else entirely. Maybe you'd care to expand, so I don't have to stand here guessing all day. It might get frightfully repetitive, after all.

I was bluffing! [She glances behind her. Oh God, the cops are on their way and this guy is a lunatic.] Okay. Bluff. I don't know anyone and if I did, they'd probably want to see me stomped. Are you going to just stand there like a jerk or are you gonna help me, 'cause I swear what I did's not really that bad... In comparison to a lot of bad things a person could do, but last time I checked, dogfighting is a crime, not person-fighting.

Are those my only two options? Well. Let's see then. Considering you're the minor here, it's likely I'll be the one to suffer for your actions one way or another, so it may be in my best interests to make certain you avoid any messy legal entanglements. [A sigh] Alright then. We'll take my car. Do hurry.

You know, I could just be really friggin' young-looking. Aren't there tons of people who are all secretly six hundred or some crap these days? I mean, would an underage girl just immediately agree to jumping into some British guy's car without checking to make sure he wasn't George Michael-ing it up before meeting her?

[She glances behind her again and then ducks behind him so he can shield her with his body.] But call me Jodie Foster, if you have to- just get me out of here.

[He looks her over with a critical eye over his shoulder] Well, you're certainly too angry to be any elf I've ever met, too drawn for a dwarf, and you'll have to forgive me if I don't see a touch of the ... divine about you, particularly.

[And he'll give her his idea of a reassuring, charming smile] But if it helps at all, it's my job to assist damsels in distress. [He seems to reconsider after glancing over her again] Or... something like that. [Either way, he moves to yank open the door to his little black car] Look lively now.

[Why would he, of all people, decide to teach her to read magic by actually having her say the incantations from a spellbook?! And while she was no mage, being stuck with him on alone this mission gave her enough emotional fuel to fire off even the most powerful of spells. However, that power didn't help any with the finesse of spellcasting.]

What exactly was that spell supposed to do?

[The pair now sit in a suddenly pitch-black room, which luckily doesn't hinder either of their vision. Francesca gruffly crosses her arms across her chest and snaps at him:] You are such an arrogant ass!

[Look, it's not like he was going to do it. Maybe he figured you had more of a chance of some kind of... magical background as a drow priestess. The odds are higher.

He seems entirely nonplussed by the situation, but still jumps to his own defense]


It was an illuminatus spell. I figured there couldn't be much harm in you doing a light based incantation, and I mean, really, at least you still got up the right alley. [He flashes her a tight smile, but at that moment, every single darkened lightbulb in the room explodes and he nearly jumps out of his skin]
