MEME #1: RANDOM MAGICAL EFFECTS

[divinefist]

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.

[They've got something in common then. Double bad luck? Pretty sure that means they're doomed.]

It's a spell. I want to see what it does.

[Duh, Neku.]

[imprints]

So you're going to try it on me?

[This is a terrible idea.

Somebody's going to end up as a cat...

or maybe something worse.]

[bedeviled]

Yeah.

[He's not seeing the problem here.

He just doesn't get that Neku could end up in a dress. Again.]

When you get one, you can try it on me.

[imprints]

I haven't agreed to anything.

[bedeviled]

What? Scared?

[Peer pressure, peer pressure, peer pressure.]

[imprints]

You don't even know what it can do!

[bedeviled]

Yeah, that's why I'm trying to test it.

Take a look at it. It's not an attack spell.

[imprints]

[Well... okay, he'll look at it.]

[bedeviled]

[ About time, jeez. Zephyr just pushes the book to him and waits. ]

[imprints]

[Well...

...

it doesn't look dangerous.

And what's that? Neku has a Bravery stat of 999?]

... Alright. Let's do it.

[bedeviled]

[Bravery has been maxed and Neku is now The Bravest Bro Ever. Congrats, dude.]

Alright then. [Zephyr definitely sounds pleased. That might even almost be a smile.] Ready?

[imprints]

[This may or may not work out in his favor]

Let's get this over with.

[bedeviled]

[This is probably going to go wrong.

But Zephyr is already reading it. It sounds suspiciously like... well, at least it doesn't sound dangerous.]

[imprints]

[At least it doesn't sound like it'll blow him up.]

[bedeviled]

[Yeah, at least there's that! Maybe Zephyr's even reading it right!

When he finishes, he turns his eyes back to Neku. Waiting.

Is he about to turn into a princess? A cat? ...naked?]

[imprints]

[Oh hell, a dress? Again?]

...

...

This is the dumbest spell.

[bedeviled]

...


[Zephyr does his best to keep a straight face.


Then he just bursts out laughing. Hold on, give him a second, he'll be able to talk in a moment.]

[imprints]

[It's black, with white lace.

And it's very lacy. ... At least he got a purple ribbon?

Nope, doesn't make it better.]

Shut up!

[bedeviled]

Sorry -- [ It is very clear he is not sorry. He is still smirking and still on the verge of laughing.]

You look lovely, Neku.

[Yep, he's laughing again.]

[imprints]

Argh!

You're lying!

[bedeviled]

C'mon, it looks nice with the cat ears.

[Zephyr's tugging one some of the lace though, trying not to laugh.]

[imprints]

It looks stupid! [bad enough he's worn the stupid thing before!]

[bedeviled]

It... [can he say this with a straight face?]

It matches your eyes.

[nope, he can't.]

[imprints]

Quit it!

[bedeviled]

[He's nice enough to quiet himself, before shrugging off his jacket and offering it.]

It'll cover up some of the lace.

[Because that walk to his room is going to be one long walk of shame.]
