the DARING RESCUE MEME

THE DARING RESCUE MEME


HOW DOES IT WORK?
1. Post as your character, listing any preferences you'd like respected.
2. The rescuer replies. They can select the scenario, or they can leave it to you to do it.
3. Whoever's doing the picking hits up the Random Number Generator for two numbers: one between 1 and 8, representing who the first character is being rescued from, and one between 1 and 5, representing the reason for the rescue.
4. Alternately, make up your own scenario if you want.
5. Play it out! You can play out the rescue itself if you want, or just the aftermath--or both.
6. Make sure you take note of any preferences a player might have and warn for triggers in the subject line if they crop up.
7. Have fun and make sure you swoon properly!


★★ WHO ARE YOU RESCUING THEM FROM?
1] Their greatest enemy. For whatever the reason, the character's greatest enemy has finally made a move and taken them captive. Who knows what they plan to do to the poor character? Good thing you've come to save them.
2] Your greatest enemy. Your own enemy has decided to make a move against you--but not directly. They've taken this character hostage instead. Show them who's boss and rescue the victim!
3] Natural disaster. Come hell or high water, you'll save the character...and, in fact, it has come hell (in the form of fire, maybe) or high water (perhaps a flood?). Or something like that. Whatever. The point is, nature itself has it out for the character, and it's up to you to save them.
4] Wild animals. Stephen Colbert was right: bears are the number one threat. Or maybe lions. Make sure the character doesn't become dinner.
5] Supernatural forces. Actually, it's dragons. Or evil wizards. Or demons. Take your pick, just so long as you rescue the character from them.
6] Pirates. Just what the pirates intend to do with this character might be a mystery--could be they'll walk the plank, or worse. Time to pluck them from the hook-hands of danger.
7] Vice. The character has sunken into dissolution, perhaps out of despair or maybe from sheer uncontrollable self-indulgence. You're the only one who can step in and give them a new lease on life.
8] Their own bad judgment. The character is committed to a truly terrible course of action. Fortunately, you're here to make them see reason...one way or another.


★★★ WHY ARE YOU RESCUING THEM?
1] Love. The fairy tales have it right. It's true love that spurs the knight to rescue his fair maiden...or vice versa.
2] Friendship. It's not always about kisses and ravishing, you know. Sometimes, you've just gotta look out for friends and family, no matter what sticky situations they get themselves into.
3] Rivalry. Only you're allowed to dish it out to the character! Better make sure no one else gets in your way.
4] Debt. The character owes you, in one way or another. They don't think they can get off easy, do they?
5] Money. Plain and simple: you were hired for the task. It's nothing personal, just business.

[Wild animals. Dizzy wouldn't have much problem with them, if they were nice, little forest animals she knew from the time she spent in the grove.

But those were big and didn't seem nice at all.

But please, do not worry, miss Miranda! One (1) angel-like gear is going to save you!]

[Miranda? Not worry? You might as well ask the sun not to shine. Miranda was definitely worrying.

In fact she was panicking. Very loudly. Just listen to her scream as she clings to the branches of a tree while ravenous wolves circle below her]


OH GOD I'M GOING TO DIE I DON'T WANT TO DIE THEY'RE GOING TO EAT ME PLEASE DON'T LET THEM EAT MEEEEEEEEE!

Miss Miranda, please calm down! I will not let them hurt you!

[Dizzy runs to the tree, then glares at the wolves... Or at least she tries to glare at them. Her expression doesn't really look neither angry nor scary. Her words directed at the wolves doesn't help either.]

Please, leave my friend alone!
aaaiiiieeeeeeeeeeeee: (Afraid: PANIC)

[The wolves take one look at Dizzy, before proceeding to completely ignore her]

No, run away! They'll kill you too! Oh God, I'm going to diiiiiiieeeee...

[She tries again to get their attention, but this time by attacking the animals. Just as much as she hated doing this, she had to. She couldn't allow them to eat anyone!]

Please leave this place!

[Icicles directed at the wolves, she tried to one more time tell them to leave.]
