MEME #1: RANDOM MAGICAL EFFECTS

THE RANDOM MAGICAL EFFECTS MEME

"Your teeth turn brick red and then you turn into a bear for a week."
HOW:
1. Start a thread with your character.
2. Other characters reply and generate a random effect. If you need a scenario, RNG it.
     2b. OPTIONAL: generate your own random effect, just because.
3. Tag other characters, generate more stuff, etc.
4. Shenanigans.
5. Yes you still have loveless ears and aren't in your home world have fun with that.
SCENARIOS:
1. ADVENTURE: 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).
2. CURSE: 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.
3. SPELLCRAFT: You have acquired a magical spellbook and decide to test it on yourself or someone else. The results are probably not as desired.
4. OUCH: You were bitten by a werewolf/cat/bear/dog/falcon/tiger/whatever the hell else is in there. There may or may not be some additional side effects.
5. RITUALS: You attempt to consort with demons/other entities of questionable morality and fail spectacularly-- either the ritual backfires, or they just don't like you.
6. THE BEES: It is not actually magic but a science experiment gone horribly, horribly wrong.
7. LOST: You are lost. Loster than the people on Lost. You are lost for words for how lost you are. So lost.
8. DRUG-INDUCED: I'm freakin' out man...
9. LET'S DO THIS: Roll two more numbers. Both of those things just happened at the same time, somehow. If you roll a 9 again, roll two more numbers and keep stacking them (ex. you roll a 2 and 9, then you roll again to get 5 and 6, which means you combine 2, 5, and 6).
10. Writer's choice.

[This is irritating. Mello should have known better than to let her handle the map. He's clearly frustrated and a tiny bit grumpy.]

We have. I know we've seen that cluster of trees before.

[And yes, his tone is a little self-assured.]

Where's that map?

Really? I must have counted them wrong.

Uh... I think it's in my bag. [ 'think' is the keyword. ]
volatility: (neutral suspicion)

[personal profile] volatility 2012-01-10 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Mello stops walking to glare and fold his arms. If that map isn't in her bag, then they're really going to be screwed.]

If you kept better track, we wouldn't be in this mess.

[He tries to mentally retrace their footsteps but it seems impossible.]

Well?
barrette: (Default)

[personal profile] barrette 2012-01-10 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
It shouldn't be that hard to find our way out.

[ searching... searching... ]

It must have fallen out.

[personal profile] volatility 2012-01-10 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, great.]

If it's not hard, why are we still going in circles?

[Mello decides it's time for a break and sits down against one of the trees, sighing as he pulls a bar of chocolate out of his pocket. He made sure to bring one, just in case something like this happened.]

[personal profile] barrette 2012-01-10 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know.

[ she resists the urge to chuckle. Mello, she's starting to believe you really are addicted to chocolate. ]
volatility: (wide-eyed and hand on face)

[personal profile] volatility 2012-01-10 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
[A sigh.]

Sit down, we're not going anywhere anytime soon. [They'll figure it out eventually, but for now he wants a break to think. And yes, eat that chocolate, which he unwraps...

And hesitates.]


Want any?

[Because knowing the way she treated the map, she probably doesn't have anything to snack on herself.]

[personal profile] barrette 2012-01-10 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ a pause, and then she grins, sitting next to him. ]

Sure.

[He breaks it in half and hands over her share. Then he spares a moment to think about how he's gone from chasing Kira to sitting in the middle of nowhere, sharing chocolate. Not a happy thought.

He takes a bite of the chocolate. Maybe after he gets some sugar in his system he can come up with a better plan.]


Maybe if we walk in enough circles, we'll find the map.

[Theoretically it should stand out, unless the wind blew it somewhere.]
barrette: (Default)

[personal profile] barrette 2012-01-10 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
That's assuming we haven't already wandered off the path the map is on.

[ she takes a thoughtful bite out of her piece. ]
volatility: (Default)

[personal profile] volatility 2012-01-10 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
That's helpful.

[Some sarcasm. He really doesn't like their current situation.]

Do you know how long it's been since you looked at it?

[Maybe - just maybe that would help him see how far they needed to try and retrace their steps. It's a long shot, but he's Mello. He was in line to be the next L. He has to be able to find a way back.]
barrette: (Default)

[personal profile] barrette 2012-01-10 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Around a half hour ago.

[ they hadn't walked too far since then. ]
volatility: (Default)

[personal profile] volatility 2012-01-10 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hm.

Mello takes another bite of chocolate.]


I think we can try to get back to where you dropped it.

[He's been paying attention to the brush and trees since they realized they were lost. It seems like they've been going in circles, but maybe he can find some landmarks he recognizes if they head the other way.]

It's worth a shot.
