It seemed like a good idea at the time.
Where are you?
- At a small town antique store, watching a rooster statue get bought by an 85 year old woman.
- Isla Nublar, or the closest equivalent thereof. You're going to a theme park called Jurassic Park. There's cloned dinosaurs and there's no way this could go wrong.
- An ancient shrine that's rimed with age and full of sacred energy.
- An old motel located in a quieter part of the city. An infamous murder happened there.
- A used car (or closest setting equivalent thereof - horses and spaceships work) dealership.
- In an old shed. It appears to have farming tools. Mistakes were made.
- About to go through a drive-thru liquor store. More mistakes will be made shortly.
- A lighthouse. A storm is coming.
- Kinko's or the closest setting equivalent thereof. ...it makes sense in context.
- Somewhere else.
What are you doing there?
- You just got the wrong number/place/person and all of this was a mistake. Blind dates. Mistaken identity. You were drunk when boarding the boat and meant to go to Brazil instead of Isla Nublar. A teleportation spell went awry. Your spaceship had engine troubles and now here you are.
- You're going someplace you probably shouldn't be going. Espionage? Curiosity? Some other reason? No matter what the reason is, you're tresspassing.
- Dealing with the aftermath of some kind of bitter disappointment, terrible defeat, tragic loss, or horrible rejection. Or maybe it was not that bad, but...still. Gotta go through the process. You're drowning your sorrows in photocopies, dinosaur themed cocktails, or an old shed because mistakes were made.
- Hunting for something! You might be the hunter or you might be the hunted; you might be searching for someone or something like a book, but no matter what it is you probably won't be there for long.
- Gearing down for the last, great, desperate fight before reinforcements/the final boss is defeated/your side loses/some other reason. In more mundane settings you might one of the only employees working for the next five hours. It's probably going to be a long day/night/whenever it takes place. The calm before the storm.
- Dealing with a monster transformation - yourself or someone else. You got bitten by a vampire, or you know someone who has. Or, if not a vampire, then zombies, pixies, werewolves...whatever.
- You got a prophecy- you know, you know, but hear you out. You probably thought it was nonsense but the cat really did do the thing, and then there was that thing with the paint and now you're here. Maybe you want to warn someone before it's too late. Maybe you want to just get popcorn. Or maybe you want to confront the people you're sure are trying to scam you. Or maybe it's something else. Spy intel disguised in the form of a fortune? Who knows.
- There is a bomb, or, if not a bomb, some other situation in which if you fuck up a bunch of people are going to die really quickly. You're the only person who can disarm this situation. Don't screw up.
- You got kidnapped, just woke up, and some evil mastermind is telling you that you need to run around solving puzzles like you're Professor Layton for a few hours. Bomb collars may be involved. Something like that.
- As these options suck? Something the fuck else.

idk i am winging it like a boss.
But the flight from Madripoor to Canada was grounded due to a faulty engine and the airline said they couldn't find a replacement flight for two days. How that was possible? She had no god damn clue, but now the twenty-three year old Mutant was in fucking Gotham City of all places, trying to find a hotel for the night that didn't smell like murder and drugs and God knew what else.
As if the downed flight and delay in her plans wasn't bad enough, Laura really couldn't find any manner of hotel. Most buildings were being repaired from some incident involving a Metahuman and a doomsday device and the ones that weren't were crowded until tomorrow so, after some wandering, she ended up in a seedy bar to get really bad food to eat.
It was crowded. Rowdy. Noisy. Easy to disappear into. She hoped.
Her luck isn't that good yet, is it?
No. Because the rowdy part? It gets amped to Eleven and some guy gets punched, falling into her food and knocking her beer over.
Laura, unphased as she wants to be, shoves the person away and looks at her decimated hot wings. An eyebrow ticks up in anger and she sighs, turning towards the fight to see who started it and how she can end it before anyone gets killed. ]
sounds like a great plan to me!

The closest abandoned building is the lighthouse, and with a storm coming, the people in town won't come here, of all places, to look for witches.
Summer sighs as she bars the door shut. They are, for the moment, safe.]
Any luck finding candles? A couch or two? Blankets?
[It's not the nicest place in the world to stay, but they don't have much of a chose.]

It's not raining yet. It looks pretty okay, actually, but the way Lalli is wrinkling his nose when he settles beneath the roof of the fisherman's house, you could think it's already pouring. He takes a seat and just waits.

Let me know if the Swedish is bad 'cause I'll switch back to English
Honestly, go for it. We'll both learn a few new words! (I'm not a good judge with Swedish alksjdf)
HAHAHA I doubt my Swedish is advanced enough to teach you anything...
It reminds me of words! I like it. shhhh.

At least Clementine isn't a stranger to being locked in places... With... Strangers. Sometimes you have to play nice and work together. Even if they might kill you later. Who knows! ]
Are lighthouses supposed to lock from the inside?

Sometimes your douchebag god complex can't cover for all the bitter, lonely nights you make for yourself.
He turns to his internet penpal, who met up with him after a brief chat on Intergalactic Reddit, which will surely end with one of them posting to /r/LetsNotMeet ]
And you? What's your poison?

That's why, after much prodding and mocking, Leonardo finds himself out with someone he met on the internet, wishing that'd he'd just stayed home or gone to the movies by himself instead of agreeing to this.
He didn't even know liquor stores could have a drive through.]
Uh-- no poison for me, thanks. I'm not actually old enough to drink.
[This might be the first time anyone has even offered him alcohol, as most people assume he's a kid anyway.]

Come on, Poe. You could buy a brand new one for that much. You and I both know that.
Heck, even Beebeeate agrees with me. [Finn gestures to the droid at their side.]
Get the bells and whistles, too. [Another slight tug.] Come on.
[Their mission was too important to waste on a hunk of junk. Then again, he probably couldn't see the star shining under the dust.]
