the ACCIDENTAL EXTRADIMENSIONAL TOURIST meme

the ACCIDENTAL EXTRADIMENSIONAL TOURIST meme



This meme was inspired by those who wanted more memes in which posters are required to make a start up post.

Have you ever wanted to travel to another planet? Another REALITY? Even if this is something that has never crossed your mind, It's about to happen. For reals. A giant wormhole has opened up beneath you and dropped you elsewhere. You have no choice in what world you're heading to, or even where you'll be landing. Luckily (or unluckily) you'll be dropped near to a resident of the world who will have no choice but to play your tour guide and help you get to know your new home.

How it works

1. Post with your character.  In the body include a little bit about where your character is, and what they are currently doing.  You can write as little, or as much as you want! Just a simple sentence saying something like [John Doe is sitting in his office at the paper company goofing off and playing call of duty while his boss isn't looking.] is fine, or you could go into more detail and write a paragraph or two describing a key place in your world's canon to really set the scene for incoming tourists.

Do not leave your initial comment blank! Set up a scene, no matter how short. 

2. Find someone else who's world you are invading and post dropping in on them.  Maybe you just opened a door and found yourself there, maybe you fell into a worm hole.  Either way you are not where you were a moment ago.

optional: The wormhole might have handily provided you with the means to blend in to your new environment.  If you find yourself hopping out into a school, you might be wearing an appropriate uniform, if you happen to fall out into a swords and sorcery type world you might find yourself sporting plate armor or wizard robes, and if you find yourself on an alien planet... well you might look just like the aliens who live there.

3. Remember that with this sort of meme it's probably best to tag outside of canonmates.  But, either way, have fun and try not to kill the tourists!

Comments

Loki ♦ Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok

[silvertonguedgod]

[ You'll find yourself in the study of a certain banished Norse god by the name of Loki. It's a spacious room lined with stuffed bookshelves. The carpet is thick and in the middle is a coffee table flanked by two very comfortable and expensive looking couches. Right next to a huge picture window is Loki's antique and hand carved desk. Loki himself is sitting behind it in a high backed chair, a cup of fragrant tea in one hand, a newspaper in the other. ]

Well now. I certainly wasn't expecting any guests today. Certainly not ones who didn't come through the front door at least. Care to explain yourself?

[ He doesn't look particularly surprised or concerned. If anything there's a bit of mild amusement glimmering in his green eyes. ]

Have a quiet 13 year old boy from Baccano!-verse

[mode_gears]

[The child who popped in doesn't seem all too startled by this.

More confused, though it barely registers on that face. Golden eyed gaze glancing around before looking to the one who talked to him.

Shaking his head at that question, not really sure how to explain himself. Someone, somewhere, did something very wrong.]

Signless ♥ Homestuck

[trolljesus]

[ Signless is just chilling here in his respiteblock in his caretaker's hive so he still lives with his mama stfu working on his next sermon.

Congratulations lucky tourist. You are probably going to drop in on one of the only trolls on Alternia who will not immediately try to cull your ass for popping in uninvited. ]

[morethanamatch]

[ Suddenly, there's a twelve-year-old human boy standing in the room, looking around nervously. ]

...Er.

Charon Walken | Baccano! | Child Stuntman of few words

[mode_gears]

[A 13 year old boy is sitting in a cafe being interviewed by a few reporters about some movie that he is in.

He is answering most questions with a nod, a shake of his head or a shrug.

The reporters seem a little frustrated trying to get a good scoop out of the kid.

If only something strange would happen to give them something to report.]

Loki Laufeyson | Marvel Cinematic Universe/ Comic Universe

[you_have_heart]

[You literally drop into a rather spacious library. It is decorated in lovely tones of green and accented with gold. A warm fire crackles in the stone hearth, and large windows trimmed with green velvet curtains give you a lovely view of the night sky.

You also have a very irate god of mischief pointing a nasty looking...well, you're not sure what it is, but it looks nasty and pointy, and it its almost touching your nose.]

Who are you?

[bindsthedead]

[Sabriel would be vaguely reminded of Abhorsen's house, if she wasn't too busy being startled. She was reaching for her sword, but she yanks her hands away from the sword and the bells and holds them up in a gesture that she hopes won't be taken as threatening.]

I- Abhorsen!

[It comes out as more of a squeak than anything else as she takes a step back, already trying to put a spell together in her mind.]

jörmungandr, the midgard serpent | norse mythology or mcu au

[worldserpent]

[ whoever you are, whatever you were doing, well.. you probably didn't expect to find yourself in a cave beneath the ocean, did you? it's rather pretty, at least, and surprisingly bright from some sort of luminescent algae on the walls. someone seems to maybe live there, as well, because there are various fabrics and cushions over near the back of the cave making up a sort of nest, and there are odd bits and baubles and trinkets everywhere. most of them probably came from shipwrecks if their varying states are any indication.

the entrance of the cave leads directly into the water, and it laps gently against the stone, quiet and serene.

and by the way? you're not alone. there's a figure staring from the water, slender pale arms folded over the stone floor, nose and eyes and dark hair just visible over the tops of them. --the eyes are sort of odd, though, aren't they? a bright, vivid, almost poisonous green, with slit pupils. and-- is that the glint of snakeskin on the curve of the figure's upper arms?

huh. what do. ]

[womanwhobeatyou]

[She thought she'd tripped, stepped into a bit of sodden ground or a pothole, but then there had been that utterly unsettling sensation of a drop and... Well then.

Irene gets her feet back under her and looks around the room-- the cave? with seeming calm. Her eyes might be a bit wide, though, and she smells salt in the heavy, water-laden air. Ocean? But it doesn't seem to feel right, and she spins around slowly, taking in every inch. And as she does, she notices the figure staring from the water, eyes bright and the glint of water making odd plays of pattern across her upper arms.]

Hello, dear.

[It's easy to fake calm.]

Sabriel | Old Kingdom Trilogy

[bindsthedead]

[The Old Kingdom is not a safe place, most of the time. But for now, the clearing where Sabriel's sitting down against an immense stone monolith is free of the walking dead. For now, anyway.

Strange, shining symbols flow over the stone as Sabriel looks up at the stars- although one of her hands is resting on her sword hilt as she stands up. The Dead are not close, but she can sense them in the distance as she stares into the gloom of the forest before suddenly turning, drawing her sword at an unexpected noise.]

[most_exalted]

[He was visiting some old friends in Egypt. Of course, while he was there, he wanted to see how developed his former homeland has become and to see the sights. You'll find him very close to the Temple of Philae, where he's very tempted to go into a blocked off area of the ruins. Are you going to join him, or stop him from going in?]

[thesmallesttrickster]

[A small boy, no older than 12, suddenly appears by Yugi's side. He smiles up at him.]

These ruins are fascinating, aren't they!

jane foster / thor

[fosterjane]

[Jane really does not mean to hit you with her car. She will assure you, once you're conscious, that she is actually a really good driver and she absolutely passed the test on the first go. Sorry. She's so sorry about this. She had just been backing out of her parking spot in this small New Mexico town, after all. Maybe her mind had been elsewhere.]

[berserkerbutton]

[ When he's conscious? Shizuo is a guy who can take two bullets to the stomach and one to the leg and not notice until he slips in his own blood and falls. And then he'll just get back up and walk three blocks to his doctor friend's apartment to get patched up.

Nope Shizuo is pretty much WIDE AWAKE right now. And after a moment of trying and failing to process what just happened he just gets up from under her car... which of course means lifting the car right up... and then maybe not so accidentally tearing the bumper off because his sleeve was snagged and stuck on a rough edge and like hell was he going to rip his shirt.

He can't see who's IN the car but he puts it back down, probably not as gently as he could have. ]

Hey PUNK. Are you trying to kill me?!

dorothy gale | oz (modern au)

[redshoed]

[It was a rare occasion when Dorothy visited home. She had missed her family something fierce during her time at school, however, and the quiet of the farm is a welcome change from the usual hustle and bustle of her daily life. Anyway, nothing ever happens anymore in Kansas.

Well, except for a thud she's just heard in the barn late at night. Quickly, she drops the book she's been reading and hurries in, grabbing the shotgun and pointing it directly at you.] Going somewhere?

Eliot Spencer - Leverage - District 12!AU

[retrieverchef]

[Eliot scowls at Sae. He knows full well what his game is worth to her and damn if he's gonna take a penny less. Not when he has Kane and Willow to provide for. And he's really not in the mood for this with Kane's twelfth birthday tomorrow. He's not letting his nephew take out tesserae.]

Lisbeth Salander: The Millenium Trilogy

[thegirlwhofoughtback]

[Small, crummy apartment, with dirty clothes on the floor and cigarettes crushed out in ashtrays everywhere. And the girl who has just started awake in bed is pointing a knife at you.]

How did you get in here?

[And why shouldn't she put this in your eye?]

Re: Lisbeth Salander: The Millenium Trilogy

[viraltentacles]

[The hooded man stared at her for a moment or two before letting his eyes wander over her appartment, apparently bored.]

...You should really clean up.

Sigyn Freyasdotter | MCU Canon AU

[fotlenke]

[The cliffs of the Vanir fortress are silent this day. Usually, they whistle and coo to the ocean they look over, but this one day, they only echo the crashing of the tides coming to the shore. They bring broken and pieced shells and stones, made smooth by the lull of the waters pushing against the sands. To the shore of the beach lying below old Vanir King Njord's house, the waves bring less shell and stone, and more fish. Fish that swim unknowingly into the woven nets laid out by the docks.

Every morning, afternoon, and night, a daughter of Njord's house would clamber down the docks and pull in the nets, collect the fish, then set the nets out once more for the cycle to repeat the next day. This particular morning, the daughter, Sigyn, sees to the nets, carrying in a carrier on her back her baby, Vali, who is rocked to sleep by the repetitive moments his mother makes pulling in the nets.

Sigyn pulls the first net to the dock and estimates the fish catch.]

Twenty. That will be enough for a week's worth.

[She pulls the net against one of the dock's supports, and ties it down so that it won't fall away. She crouches down next to the wide, straw-woven basket, and picks the wood club from inside. Turning to the netted fish, she moves to reach forward and start the beating process, but a loud KerSplash! interrupts the routine and she turns her head.]

Nice day for a swim?

Rudy Dewclaw || Kevin & Kell || OTA

[wolfwithagarden]

[Rudy had been about to leap upon an unsuspecting doe, when a loud, crashing noise startled practically everything within a mile radius. The eighteen year old let out a soft growl in frustration, watching as his prey took off in the opposite direction. Man, he is hungry! Can't he catch a break (or at least a squirrel)?! Slamming a fist against a nearby tree, he walks through the forest in the direction where the noise came from.]

Look, could you please go bother someone else? I'm busy hunting here- Whoa.

[That is definitely not what he was expecting to see. He's more bewildered than ready to attack the stranger, though.]

mylittledoormat: (Startled) Fluttershy ♥ My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic ♥ OTA

[mylittledoormat]

[Fluttershy hums a song under her breath as she goes about her cottage, doing her morning chores. She had already fixed the breakfasts for the various animals in her care, and she has moved on to cleaning everything up. The pegasus holds a duster in her jaw and lightly trails it over the furniture...

Only to drop it when someone knocks on her door. Within seconds, she is underneath the coffee table, hooves over he teal eyes.]

[stillshinigami]

[Have an equally surprised black pegasus tripping over himself and knocking over the table. Appearing very suddenly, infact!]

Ishtar :: Vampire Game

[xroyal_bratx]

[ For anyone who happened to be falling into this one's world, she's currently sitting cross legged on her throne with a rather bored expression on her face. The throne room was covered in expensive curtains and ancient architecture. There's about a good hundred or so people in that room speaking all at once. One of the voices happened to belong to the princess' guardian. He never knew when to stop talking, always nagging and nagging.

She sighed looking at the group of people trying not to yawn. It's been way too long since she's had to deal with this and there's quite a number of complaints, suggestions and empty marriage proposals. Either way the throne room was vast and endless with people dressed in old medieval robes. ]

[shadow_hands]

[ Here is Itsuki. He's actually been here for a few hours; the trip was surprisingly disorienting for the yaminade. He was used to traveling across dimensions and--on one or two occasions; though it was rare and took a lot of concentration and power--different worlds, but he had never fallen into a dimensional wormhole without meaning to.

And for whatever reason, he can't seem to get back. He can only travel between the dimensions of this new world; which is terribly unsettling, but he supposes that he can try to figure something out. Once he knows in full what's going on, that is.

After all... he's not incredibly keen on leaving Shinobu's side for long--though it doesn't appear that he has a choice in the matter. Something similar happened two years ago. Two years. Such a long time for humans and a short time for demons.

Two years isn't nearly enough time for any demon to waste away. Though Itsuki is well on his way. He's much thinner than he used to be, he's lost a lot of the muscle tone that he once had in his arms and legs, his cheeks are very slightly sunken in, and his complexion is a little bit blanched. Two years was enough time to do that much--but not enough to kill him. Not yet.

But there he stands--or rather appears behind the crowd in Ishtar's throne room; blending in thanks to the sudden wardrobe change that this little predicament gave him--though he's wearing an awful lot of white. Even with his hood drawn up, it's easy to pick out the few strands of long teal hair that hang down against his chest.

What a coincidence that he should end up on her world. Though it's a relief to see that she has returned home safely. Even if she's being bombarded with an overload of work. At least if he has to be in this situation... it's to see someone that he cares about. Shinobu isn't going anywhere anyway.

He stands quietly at the back of the crowd, looking straight at her. ]

Oenone Zero | The Mortal Engines Quartet

[themomentoftherose]

It's dark on the steppes tonight, but the rumbling you hear isn't from storms. Great shapes are moving in the night, like mountains, sillhouetted against a moon that struggles to shine through their exhaust. They're not mountains at all, but cities, armored and bristling with guns, a bunch of beetle black ten mile tall hedgehogs, callous to anything beneath. Ahead of them, men and women are in a route. Their commisars shoot a few, below for them to hold the line.
They cannot. More escape than are shot and soon the commissars are also killed, crushed under the treads of the moving, armored cities or shot by their guns.
You arrive watching this scene, next to a short, thin girl, of Japanesep-Inuit descent. She can't be more than 19 but she wears a labcoat with twin green lightning bolt insignia above a death's head on each shoulder. Nearby her are the burning remains of an airship and a number of figures that look only vaguely like men, and a lot more like monsters with their rusted metal skin and eyes that glow green like swamp gas.
The girl looks despairing.

"They advanced too quickly...I'm cut off."

Tom Paris | Star Trek: Voyager | OTA

[goingtoenjoythis]

[Tom is playing on the holodeck right now, which means whoever happens to stumble into the program will find himself in a virtual reality - currently a black and white setting of some ridiculous 1930s sci-fi movie.

It's all metal and bad props and yes, those are the most futuristic control knobs on his jacket.]

Freeze! Your villainous scheme is thwarted!

[stillshinigami]

What...

Wha?

What the hell is this? [Did they swear in those old movies?]

Nayomiy Vevinus ♥ OC

[starberries]

[Transdimentional travellers are no strangers where this gal's from, most of the time it's her home world that makes an effort to steal them over. Too bad for you those holes in it's space-time veil could never be properly patched up.]

[Welcome to planet Fortis. You're surrounded by tall Victorian era housing sparse of weeds in the walls and a bustling crowd of commuters on their way to classes or markets. If you're lucky you can avoid the wildlife, including scavenging gryphons from the rooftops and some of the shadier residents of the Scarlett University, not all of them can be tamed and they know a tourist when they see one.]

[The possibility of you falling on this one pink native of the planet in particular is slim, though it's happened before and given your unknown to her circumstances, she's not too happy to be underneath of some stranger or as she sees it 'some college pleb'. Maybe you should introduce yourself before things get unsavoury?]

Duo Maxwell [au]/ Gundam Wing/ OTA

[stillshinigami]

The hell?

[Okay, his security has got to be better than that. You just pop out of nowhere literally right in front of his work table while he was welding something. He turns the device off and pulls up his welding mask and just staaaares.]

AU!Ganondorf | Legend of Zelda (OoT timeframe)

[deserthero]

*The gerudo desert is a pretty big place. It might take this guy a while to find you. Better have some water on you or a shady place to hide, because the midday sun is sweltering.

And here this guy comes on a black horse, like living in the desert ain't no thing.

Because let's face it. For him, it isn't.*

Sariel | El Shaddai

[fallenforlove]

*You find yourself in a pastel paradise of a playground for these strange creatures. Seriously. They're everywhere. On see-saws. Rolling balls. jumping around fun music-box levers that make neat sounds when they're touched. Spirits of women floating around, making sure there are no squabbles for balls and blocks.

What is going on.

WHAT ARE THESE THINGS.*

Ghirahim | LoZ: Skyward Sword

[evilisfabulous]

*welp. That wormhole has a shitty sense of humor. Because it just dumped you into a massive nest (camp?) of bokoblins and moblins. Depending on your level of expertise in dealing with similar creatures, they might tie you up and take you captive or die in the fashion all mooks seem to share. Either way, this guy will make an appearance.*

Well. I have to admit, I thought intruders were well kept-out. Part of me wishes to congratulate you on finding this place. The other part wants to know how.

Helios Sprensonne | Original Character | OTA!

[folklorist]

[ If you're arriving at the academy today you might find yourself in several rooms. The library. The Spresonne family living quarters or the great hall. Either way where ever you end up there will be three indistinct shadowy figures all up in your busy as the sound the alarm for an intruder or unknown guest inside the school's walls. But don't worry about them though! They're rather harmless though they might try to touch you with their pitch black, cold, hands and stare back at you with black empty eyes. Nothing to worry about! Just your average, everyday, phantoms! ]

Living quarters it is! You can pick which part. :P

[lostinmyway]

[Grune really had only been intending to go pick some flowers, but it seems she might have gotten just a little bit lost. She certainly doesn't remember going inside--especially into someone's house--but maybe she was thinking about something else at the time. That could be it.

The phantoms don't bother her in the slightest; in fact, when she first sees them, she smiles and picks out a few wild roses from her urn to offer them.]

Hello. Is this where you live? It's a very nice place.

Rupert Giles | Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Post S5 pre S6

[consultmybooks]

[You find yourself in a graveyard at night. It's a bright night, with the fat full moon making the occasional street lamps more or less unnescesary, and what stars can be seen through the light pollution are also making a spirited effort.

It's not a bad graveyard - the headstones are clean and show signs of recent care, the grass is fresh, there's no mist on the ground like you might expect to find in a horror move. A little ways off in the distance, the gate is visible, and beyond that gate a peaceful, suburban looking town that's obviously settled down for the night.

Obviously.

Except for whatever is staring at you from the top of that crypt.]

[dictatorially]

[ It's nothing like the towns he's used. Amnesia had long since had towns like this...or perhaps Helios hasn't been to one in so long that he just never got used to seeing one. Like a novelty shop he'll look around at the headstones in the cemetery with a flippant and uncaring gaze, as if they meaning little to him. He sees the gates up ahead and heads for them with a steady gait. He doesn't really pay attention to his surroundings nor does he notice the thing staring at him from a top that crypt. ]
