procrastinators | MEME ♦ Lights Out!

Uh oh! Looks like something weird is happening, here! Did someone forget to pay the electricity bill? Or has that storm outside caused a blackout? Who knows! Reasoning aside, you are now trapped in darkness. You can't see anything, anything at all! And you can't even adjust to this darkness, for some reason! There's only black, black, black. Something about this room is odd, for certain!

How this is going to go down
♦ You will post as your characer as ANON, because you're in the dark!
♦ There is no putting your character's name in the subject line. However, if you like, you can put your character's series/canon. It's no fun if you know who you're interacting with right away!
♦ You're free to set up your character fumbling around in the dark and such, just so you remember which comment is yours in this anon mess, if anything.
♦ Those who reply to you will roll the RNG for the specifics of the situation!
♦ Yay! In the dark shenanigans!!
♦ When you guys are ready, the lights go on, you can log into your character journals, and it's time to admire the awkward in the light.

RNG http://www.random.org/

♦ ONE: WHY IS IT SO SMALL AND CRAMPED IN THIS ROOM? Wait, this isn't a room, this is a closet. It looks like you've been locked inside for Seven Minutes in Heaven, or just for shits and giggles! The door doesn't seem to be opening, and it sounds like some ... Barry Manilow is playing? Oh, talk about awkward.
♦ TWO: BRR, WHY IS IT SO COLD? Looks like your clothes are missing! For some reason, you're only dressed in your underwear, or even commando if you feel like being really mean to your muse. Are you in bed with someone? Just can't find your clothes? Are THEY wearing your clothes? Up to you, because it really doesn't make it any less awkward.
♦ THREE: A LITTLE HANDSY: Did someone just cop a feel? There's a lot of accidental (or... not accidental) groping going on, for whatever reason! Talk about an awkward situation, mmmhmm!
♦ FOUR: OOPS, STUCK! One of you is stuck somewhere in this room, and can't get out! Either in a hole in the floor or tied to a bed or something! Whatever you can think of! Hopefully the other person can help you out in the dark.
♦ FIVE: ON AND OFF! Rather than totally darkness, the lights are flashing on and off, creepily. And it looks like there might be monsters in there with you guys?! Or are those illusions?

If you don't want to roll the RNG, that's fine! Go ahead and create your own situation, if you'd like!

Have fun, everyone!

But think about it. Where are the people? Everything in there looked as though it's been taken care of until today. But I still can't feel anyone else here. And like I said, someone else who should be here ins't.

It doesn't make sense. There's no reason why only two people should fill such a vast space.

Of course. Especially seeing as I doubt we're really the only ones in this situation.

But if it's a game like the one you experienced already, or a trick someone prepared for me... we could have just been paired up. There might be other people around, farther from here. But the fact remains you and I woke up together. It can't be a coincidence.

[No... way. A partnership... with this guy!? No, I didn't feel anything. Think outside The Game, Neku.

Still, he's probably right about that. It can't be a coincidence.]

So maybe we should concentrate on finding someone else.

I'll guide you through that building again, if the light is still out. Like you said before, that was our starting point. There has to be some hint.

All right. Let's hurry back.

Though just to be on the safe side...

Can you defend yourself?

[He takes a look at his pins]

[Will these work here...?]

...

[I am looking at your pins like you're crazy, bro]

... Stand back a little, okay?

[... sure. Standing back, then]

[LET'S TRY THIS FIRE ONE—!

RNG likes me lately, it works!!]

Looks like I've got it covered.

[holy Father on a cracker]

... That doesn't look like alchemy, is it?

[WERE YOU IMPRESSED? That feels a little good, oh man]

It's called a psych. These pins were given to me when I entered The Game, and each one activates a different power.

That's convenient! Then it looks like in good hands, huh?

[Wait a minute...]

Are you saying you can't defend yourself at all!?

I can defend myself, but I'm not as flashy as that.

[What's flashiness got to do with it?]

Hm. Guess we're even on that one.

I can use a sword [which has totally been with me the whole time you don't even know] and am good in hand-to-hand combat as well. But I'll leave long-distance to you.

Sounds like a plan.

Just out of curiousity... How old are you, Neku?

Huh? 15, why?

Since you said you died, I just wanted to know. But it looks like we're the same age, then.

For serious!?

Why does nobody ever believes it...
