(Disclaimer: Characters don't actually have to be aware anything's different and it probably works better if they're not anyway, this is wish fulfillment right here)

- SUPERHERO WORLD: Put on your capes and keep your undies on the outside kids, it's time to save the world. Only those with the coolest names and the least crappy powers can survive in a world that doesn't understand. And something about responsibility I guess.
- PIRATE WORLD: Because a whole meme dedicated to pirates isn't enough, it's never enough, never. Swash those buckles and put Errol Flynn to shame.
- COWBOY WORLD: More lawless outlaws and people who don't need no stinkin' badges. Just make sure you're not the kind who wears flamboyant pink or you might mess up the timeline.
- ROCK STAR WORLD: Sex, drugs, and stupid-looking outfits. From Gaga to Mercury to Richards to Jones, these proud innovators of the musical world (and other guys who played music I guess) pioneer new ways to look ridiculous and still get laid all the time. CATCH A PIECE OF THAT MAGIC AND BECOME A JUKE BOX HERO.
- ROBOT WORLD: I don't even know anymore I'm just throwing this in here for the hell of it. You're robots. I guess do whatever robots do when they're not fantasizing about calculators.
- DETECTIVE WORLD: Hard-boiled flatfoots chase crooked criminals in the black-and-white streets of a vaguely early 1900's America because that's the only place that ever had hard-boiled detectives, shut up, it's historical fact.
- POTPOURRI WORLD: ROBOT COWBOY ROCK STARS. WHO ARE ALSO DINOSAURS.

3, because there has to be a pirate planet somewhere seriously
Y'arrr!
There's a planet of hats, so why the hell not?
I didn't actually mean that you should dress like a pirate to blend in. I was joking. You look nice though!

[She paid the heat little mind, of course. That's what the slow-moving ceiling fan was for.
And the modern portable AC unit she snuck in the room just before the scene started.Hat tipped over her eyes, the young vixen kicked up a pair of high-heels onto the desk, leaning back in the chair. Waiting for the next client. Or at least her partner to return with those doughnuts he promised her.][And so help him, he better have glazed, or they'll be a new murder for Gotham's not-so-finest to have to solve.]
WE'RE RP REBELS.
Okay, so the glaze might be a little melted but I got the doughnuts.
WITH FEDORAS
'bout time. What took you so long?
AND TRENCHCOATS
[He sets the box of doughnuts down, flicks open the lid, and grabs the chocolate with sprinkles]
AND SUNGLASSES?
[Too far away. She shifts from her seat right onto the desk, letting her legs dangling over the edge as she reaches back for one of her precious glazed. The gooeyness of the melted sugar coating just made it taste that much sweeter.]
Or did the public pool run out of towels again?
B) Of course. Can't make puns without them.
Nah, I think it has to do with brown-outs all over the city.
B) YEEEEEEAH-!
[She crosses her legs, and looks like she's pondering something in between bites]
Think there's something more to them?
no subject
Maybe. See, they're happening all over the city but only in certain neighborhoods. Like...ones with banks and museums.
no subject
Because that's not suspicious at all.
And you didn't mention that part earlier because...?

[He pops open his Coke and downs some. Aaaah.]

Maybe.

[Finishes off his doughnut.]
Too bad we won't get paid for investigating the brown-outs. Not unless the police get desperate.

1 Make that superVILLAIN world
Did you get me a few stragglers? We need to dump those bodies at the scene, once we take out these guys. Make sure those gang colors are bright and noticeable.

Kanaya Maryam ♍ Homestuck ♍ 6 is my initial roll, feel free to re-roll if you wish
The scene opens to a quiet, modestly organized office. The name on the glass pane reads "Kanaya Maryam, Private Investigator". The owner of the office, one Kanaya Maryam, Private Investigator, sits behind a desk covered in files and folders and pictures, all showing an attempt at organization, but apparently having proven too great a task even for this hard-boiled sleuth.
The detective herself exudes a sense of class and sophistication, with the unlit cigarette between her lips, the bottle of unopened scotch on her desk, and the unloaded revolver safely strapped away on its holster near her file cabinet. Yes, truly a picture of your classic detective story protagonist. She pores over the folders of a case in front of her, one regarding the Midnight Crew's latest crime. She finds a lot of these cases, but it's mostly just meddling on her part, and she hasn't earned many friends on the force by sticking her glowing nose into such things.
>Begin inner monologue
You begin an inner monologue, using as deep and serious a mental tone as you can muster. You muse about the crime of this city, how it never sleeps and how it's caused you to lose sleep as a result. Luckily, you also muse, you've managed to hide the fact well enough with the proper makeup. You adjust your fedora and your hair, making sure both remain perfect, then glance up at the door. Days like this, you think to yourself, there always seems to be trouble around the corner, just waiting to walk right in the door.
