gen/action meme: Look who's purging now


the PURGE MEME.


rick pretty much nailed it: one night a year, the government has decreed all crime legal, from internet piracy to premeditated murder. and that helps... somehow. how will you celebrate this year's purge?

optional options:
  1. OUT & ABOUT: you live to purge! or maybe it's your first time participating, since you don't have any repressed rage. (spoken like a person with repressed rage)
  2. LOCKDOWN: you've both been prepping for tonight's purge since last year's ended, and you're secure enough that you can watch the chaos play out from the comfort of your own home. popcorn or purgenol?
  3. SEEKING SHELTER: you're not affluent or fortunate enough to afford safety tonight, or circumstances have led you outside your comfort zone. or maybe you're a purger trying to worm your way into a bunker. try and talk yourself into someone's heart and home.
  4. THE LAST PURGE: you've had enough of this purge nonsense. it creates more problems than it solves! alone or with your squad, you're on a mission to find the fatcats who instituted this tradition and show them what it's really about.
  5. OUTSIDE THE BOX: wildcard! these options are just suggestions. take the purge sandbox and run with it. combine prompts, toss in twists, keep it interesting. 'cause that movie sucked.


rules: post with your character's name, canon and prefs; be respectful.

warning: threads may contain violence, death, and who knows what else.
ultraviolents: but that's what i'll do (and that ain't what you want to hear)

'No one dies'.

[ spoken in the same low tone he'd spoken those words to her in. she's only half pulling her punches because of their deal; these assholes aren't worth their full effort. the final assailant's ready to run, but she takes him out for good measure, sending the next knife he tries to pull out ( a bigger one, she's not surprised to find he thinks bigger means better ) into the wall before she kicks his legs out from under him, cracking him in each kneecap to make sure he stays down. then she looks back at matthew, nodding once. ]

I remember.

[ they have a deal. she won't go back on it unless there's no choice. but she remembers very well that they have different stances on whether or not there's a choice when it comes to ending someone's life, even if they're determined to end yours. ]
