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.

[. . . i am not really sure what kind of ritual just occurred, but you are getting this dude(?) who is armed with cookies.]

. . . Don't think I was summoned by the likes of you, before you say anything.

[ You know, Zephyr isn't sure either, but this isn't what he wanted. He only raises an eyebrow at the... girl?]

Funny. Looks like you're here, don't it?

[He casually reaches over to nab one of those cookies.]

Now where's the real demon?

Spell-craft?

[The doubtful look summarizes his knowledge.] Not really. There's nothing like it where I'm from.

[ Adventure time! You and Setsuna have finally reached the end of a long, mysterious cavern, where your treasure awaits — the fabled catnip of legend! Your feline senses are twitching with anticipation! ]

So that's it, huh? [ Setsuna approaches the pedestal, reaching for the pouch. ] How anticlimactic. I was expecting more.

[personal profile] bedeviled 2012-01-11 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh, his feline senses are twitching, alright. After all this trouble, it better be something good and a lot of it. From where Zephyr is standing, that pouch doesn't look like much.]

It's a musty, old cave. [But his ears are perked when he walks closer, stopping next to the pedestal himself. The pouch doesn't look any bigger up close.] I'm surprised there's anything at all.

[ Picking it up, Setsuna gives it a sniff. Immediately, his ears shoot upright, pupils widening to saucers. ]

...it's good. [ He's about to offer it to Zephyr when a sudden noise coming from behind them, like the trampling of footsteps, catches his attention, followed by frantic voices. His muscles tense, body put on alert. ]

We weren't followed in here, were we?
bedeviled: (☠ ➨ disapproving)

[personal profile] bedeviled 2012-01-12 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Zephyr is more than a little interested with the catnip. After Setsuna's reaction, who wouldn't be? Bad timing, though.

He hmphs and turns around, facing the noise, watching the parade of shadows on the cavern walls.]


That or the cavern residents aren't happy to have guests.

[His hand is already behind him, hovering over his holster and guns. He glances back to Setsuna.] You bring a weapon?

[personal profile] ex_reforms251 2012-01-12 08:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ Setsuna nods, drawing some of his knives. ]

Of course.

[ They wait tensely for awhile, as the sounds amp up in volume, until they can be more clearly heard as.. meowing? Setsuna barely has time to inquire what's going on before the duo is surrounded!

"Ach! Eindringlinge!"

Wait, were those—

Yes, indeed they were.

Setsuna and Zephyr were now entrapped by talking, tiny kitten Nazis. They are, without a doubt, the cutest villains you've ever seen.

The supposed leader of the group, sporting a peg leg and an eyepatch, thrusts his (also tiny and adorable) rapier forward accusingly, speaking in an inexplicable German accent.

"Vhy haff you come heah, tall vones? Explain yourselfs!"

Setsuna is dumbfounded. Zephyr is... well, how do you react to this turn of events? ]

[ Zephyr is every bit as dumbfounded. His hand holding his gun sways and his eyebrows knit. He definitely looks back to Setsuna now. They're surrounded by vicious kittens with swords. No, no, he can't bring himself to be intimidated by this. He can't even take this seriously.

Maybe he and Setsuna already had a little too much of that fabled catnip.

After one more glance to make sure the nazi, pirate kittens were really still there and still real, he looks back to Setsuna and raises an eyebrow.]


Do you think this would count as animal abuse?

[It's quiet and in bad taste, but a few dead cats wouldn't make a dent on his conscience. He just huffs, though. He's not going to be the one to start a war with kittens.]

Give me a break. Why do you think we're here?

[personal profile] ex_reforms251 2012-01-12 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ Setsuna just eyes Zephyr warily, shrugging his shoulders without saying a word.

The leader huffs and spazzes indignantly at Zephyr... though it winds up being more d'awwww inducing than anything else.

"Indeed, indeed! Zat is ze question I haff asked you! How fiendishly clever of you to turn it around upon me! But I vill not be fooled by such petty tricks! Not I, Ziegfried, Leadah of ze Glorious Purred Reich!"

Somewhere, a kitten probably died at that terrible pun.

"Anyvay," Ziegfried struts forward on his teensy pair of jackboots, "ve can settle zis peacefully. Just hand over ze catnip, and no vone gets hurt!"

Setsuna looks a little hesitant to fork it over, though... what to do? ]

[All of this over catnip? This situation is so bizarre, his gaze shifts back to Setsuna for some sort of clue. Was it worth it upsetting a dozen cute kittens? The hesitance he spotted on Setsuna could be the answer.

After coming this far, though... Zephyr isn't keen on leaving without a reward. He turns his attention back on the tiny, threatening kitten. Never let it be said that cut could persuade Zephyr.]


Sorry, you're a little too late. Why don't you find your own catnip?

[The sudden feeling strikes him that if Leanne were here, she'd hit him over the head and start handing out catnip to nazi kittens.

It's definitely not a change of heart when he lowers his gun a little and nods towards Setsuna.]
I guess you could ask this guy if he feels like sharing any of it.
