Keep calm and idk



Some of the coolest threads come from just putting characters in situations! This meme is a chance to do just that.

How to Play:
  1. No blank top-levels. Put a "don't panic, but..." statement in your top-level. Examples:
    • "Don't panic, but my father's coming and I need you to hide me."
    • "Don't panic, but everyone's throwing up."
    • "Don't panic, but I think something just exploded around the corner."
    • "Don't panic, but there's someone following you."
    • "Don't panic, but your shoes clash with that purse really badly."
  2. Respond to other people's statements. Maybe you can help them. Maybe you can make the situation worse. Maybe you can't help but panic.
  3. ????
  4. Profit

Don't panic, but I'm leading a revolution and I'm going to need your help.

You don't understand?

I can define the word, if you like.

No I definitely understand the word. I'm just having a hard time understanding why you need my help.

We need all the help we can get.

You're not an exception.

That's new. Azula I understood, she took anyone with any kind of skill. Is that the way you are too?

If you think I would help you with anything other than putting a bullet in your head, you’re a phcking idiot.

[ Ah. Hm. His LED flashes yellow - he hasn't quite had the time to remove it yet. Now a folly he recognizes. ]

Even if you choose to do so, it won't stop anything.

I'm not alone in this.

Bold claim from a tin can. If I kill you now, maybe it’ll stop you from infecting other freaks with your fucked up virus.

At least there’d be one less of you pricks running around.

[ Markus tilts his head and does a quick bio-reading by adjusting his eye filters. He then, shrugs in an exaggerated mimic of a human. ]

I believe you are the one with some sort of virus? It's the only thing that could explain the state of your body.

The fuck is that supposed to mean, you piece of shit?

[ Gavin takes a step back. Fists clenched at his sides.

It’s just android bullshit. The plastic freak doesn’t know anything. There’s no way it can see all the bite marks on Gavin’s body: down his chest, thighs. All the hickeys.

It’s just trying to mess with him — and succeeding. A little. ]
