ROAD TRIP MEME

How To:
1. Post with your character and preferences.
2. Others tag you, and will you look at that, you're now on a road trip together! For some reason.
3. Optionally, roll from 1-15 to get your scenario.
4. ???
5. JACKPOT.

1: LOST You should have made a left toin at Albuquerque, or maybe you've been holding the map upside down this whole time! Whatever it is, you're hopelessly LOST. Will you make it back on the path to your destination, or will you find a new adventure? ~~Try not to open any hatches.~~

2: Tourist Trap Okay, you're all for seeing the sights, but World's Biggest Doorstopper? World's Smallest Chicken? World's Noisiest Whistle? Do we really have to stop here, too?

3: Car Trouble Maybe you got a flat tire. Maybe your engine's stalled. Or maybe you just overestimated how far you could get on a half tank of gas. Either way, you're broke down on the side of the road and the nearest station is miles away; better get behind it and push!

4: Bad Weather Driving in the rain? No problem. Driving in torrential downpours or a blinding blizzard? Big problem! Better find a way to get out of the storm fast!

5: When Ya Gotta Go... Didn't I tell you to go before we left? Well, even if you did, maybe you shouldn't have had that 44 ounce Super Big Gulp, because there's not another rest stop for miles. Maybe you can find an empty bottle in the back...

6: Road Delays Stuck in traffic? Stuck at road construction? Stuck in a funeral procession? Bridge out? Whatever it is, it's blocking your way. Do you wait patiently, or maybe find your own way around it.

7: Smokey and the Bandit Oh no, those blue lights behind you can't be good. Maybe you should just pull over and accept your speeding ticket like a decent citizen. Or, maybe you should floor it. High speed chase anyone?

8: Night Driving You decided to drive through the night, and now it's one AM and you're all out of coffee. Wake up a friend and make them help you stay awake; falling asleep at the wheel is dangerous!

9: Ghost Town Boy, this town sure is quiet. And... kind of creepy. Oh God, did something in those corn rows just move? I hear banjo music; CAN'T YOU DRIVE ANY FASTER?!

10: Roadkill Good going, you hit an animal. I sure hope you feel good about yourself. Now you've killed the poor- oh, it's still moving? What do we do now!?
10a: The I Know What You Did Last Summer Edition That animal you hit was a little more human than you care for... oh dear...

11: ROAD RAGE That jerk cut me off! How dare he!? I'll make him pay! Or maybe you cut off a less-than-friendly driver of your own, and now he's after you...

12: Carjacked Awww, that was a good lunch. ...Wait, I know this is where we parked... Dude, where's the car!?!?

13: Hitchhiking Who said you needed a car for a road trip? Stick that thumb out and catch a ride where you're going. Maybe you and a buddy are chillin' with the pigs in a trailer, or maybe that nice looking hitchhiker you picked up down the road is not as nice as you thought...

14: Fantasy Car Roads? Where you're going, you don't need roads. If you're in Doc's DeLorean, anyway. Or maybe the car is really Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Or a spy car. Or the Batmobile. Or a Transformer! Whatever it is, this car is NOT normal.

15: Are We There Yet? Roller's choice! Pick your favorite option, or two, or three, or just roll with whatever feels right!

Not that I'm complaining, but are you sure this is the right way?

Sure I'm sure. Never been - [ Oh. That sign can't be right. ] Never been more - we'll get off at the next exit and ask for directions. Nothing to worry about.

[He seems slightly distracted. He's looking out his window in awe.]

Huh? Yeah. Hey, what kind of trees do you think those are?

[doppelganger road trip, y/n?]

[ best road trip ever. ]

[Okay, this is definitely not where they were supposed to end up. Well. it looked that way, at least. Last time Oswin checked, the place they were supposed to be getting to had, y'know. People. And buildings that didn't look like they were about to collapse if you breathed on them wrong. And it wasn't surrounded by five miles of cornfield on all sides.

Definitely a problem, especially considering how dark it was getting.]

Not exactly the cheeriest place. [But it's been a good five hours, so regardless of potential creepiness, Oswin needs to get out of the car and stretch her legs.] D'you know exactly where we are, or have I got to try and guess?

[ The Doctor wanted to get more use out of that bike of his, so a nice little roadtrip through the countryside to see the biggest ball of twine was in his agenda. He was not exactly sure Clara thought the same. ]

This trip is going to be wonderful! I might have all of space-time at my disposal, but there's nothing like a ride through the countryside!

[ Cool bike was cool, couldn't argue with that. And there was nothing wrong with a more mundane adventure in the spirit of some down time, and Clara had been fine with letting him have this one, but... big ball of twine? ]

You sure you don't want to see the world's largest office chair?

[ Sarcasm. Fond sarcasm, because he was weird and this really wasn't a huge surprise, but she was going to rib him a bit anyway. ]

[ He enjoyed the black Triumph as it roared down the country road, and sure The Doctor did not look like a big burly biker as he continued along the highway. He loved it, and he was even more interested in something so mundane. ]

Ooooh! I would love to see the world's largest office chair! You wouldn't happen to know where I could find it?! [ He shouted out from over the roar of motor. ]

[ Sorry, Doctor. She absolutely, thankfully, didn't. But he'd probably find something to fill the disappointment. Like the world's biggest pair of scissors, or hat, or any of the other 'this is absurdly huge' things that littered these kind of roads.

Clara leaned her head somewhat, as not to yell in his ear. ]

Might be too much excitement for one day, don't you think?

[ He looked over his shoulders, and he had what seemed like a wonderful idea. ] Nah! There's never too much excitement for one day!

[ The Doctor continued to ride down the road, and he got a brilliant idea. And, an even better idea came to his mind that was far better than seeing a ball of twine. ] Ooooh! How about we stop at a diner? I love a good diner; they always have the fizziest of colas in there!

The pickup truck? Had broken down somewhere on Route 66,. No town for miles. Luckily, Casey was no slouch when it came to auto repair, but the truck's engine wasn't really cooperating, as evidenced by the oil that had just squirted into his face.

Casey let a out muttered oath, and kicked the vehicle. Not enough to damage it more, but enough to show his displeasure with it. Somewhere in between those two points was the point where kicking it just plain hurt, and Casey spent the next couple moments hopping around muttering more cusswords.
