You're waiting for a train...
This is an Inception AU Meme
The rules are quite simple:
Step 1: Comment with your character's name and title in the Inception-verse in the subject line (The fandom too, if you wish, but it's not necessary)
Step 1a: Titles and descriptions are as follows:
Architect: The Architect is the one who builds the dream locations, whether it's a mock up of a real place, or somewhere completely from scratch, it's their job to make sure that the mark doesn't know that their environment isn't real
Chemist: The Chemist is the one who supplies the Somnacin, the dream-machine drug, whether they mix their own or get it from a reputable distributor. Generally the one who keeps an eye on the sleepers topside.
Extractor: The Extractor is the person who does most of the intensive work, they're the ones who actually collect the information from the mark within the dream, whether it's by talking it out of them or breaking into their safe to get it.
Forger: The Forger is something of a wild card, Forgers can change their appearance in a dream, this is not a skill most people have, appearing only as themselves. Generally it's a Forger's job to take on the appearance of someone close to the mark, get the information needed from them as smoothly as possible.
Mark: The Mark is the person who has the information that the extraction team is after. Rich businessman, government drone who's been embezzling from the company coffers, cheating spouse, you name it. Someone's paid big money to get the information you have.
Point: The Point is the one who pulls all the information together, on the mark and on teammates, it's up to them to make sure the job goes as smoothly as possible.
Tourist: The Tourist is someone who's just along for the ride, whether they're the one who's paying for the extraction and they're along to protect their investment, or whether they're someone's Yoko Ono, they shouldn't be there, because they aren't trained, but circumstances have thrown them in as well.
Shade: The Shade is a memory of someone, lodged in the back of one of the team's minds. Not always malevolent, but sometimes so, they may be dead, they may be otherwise lost, but the Shade is a person who only exists in dreams.
(of course, if you already play someone from Inception, you can change their title or stick with the canon one, it's up to you!)
Step 2: Tag around with one of the following scenarios (or make up your own, I'm not the boss of you)
Planning stages: This is the part where the whole thing looks a bit like Oceans Eleven, getting the team together, making sure everyone's available, pinning down a timeline, setting up surveillance of the mark and so on.
Practice run: Now the job is well underway and testing is required to make sure everyone knows what they're supposed to be doing and when, this is also when plans get finalized, and is the best time to weed out any potential problems.
On the job: It's go time! Hopefully everyone knows their part and nobody's going to crash the party. But of course it can't be that easy, can it?
After the job: Well the job's over, was it a success? A failure? Did everyone survive or did someone get left behind with their brain leaking out their ears? Is it time to celebrate or time to cut and run?
Step 3: Have fun!
[The fine print: Blank comments will NOT be deleted, but starters won't be frowned upon either even if they're just a couple of lines.]
