THE DEFENESTRATION MEME

All of my friends are enablers, I swear.

The Defenestration Meme
...it seemed like a good idea at the time.




de·fen·es·tra·tion
noun
the act of throwing a thing or especially a person out of a window: the defenestration of the commissioners at Prague.

- Post with your character.
- Reply to other characters.
- If you need a prompt, hit up the RNG and...

1. You are about to defenestrate yourself. Is this a suicide attempt? Is it merely because you need a quick exit and fortunately the building is only one or two stories tall so it's not that much in the way of defenestration? Well. Either way, you're about to throw yourself out of a window and somebody caught you in the act.
2. You're defenestrating your/someone else's belongings. Is it because it's a messy break-up? Is it a fit of rage? It doesn't matter, because unless someone actively stops you you'll end up defenestrating the contents of the entire room.
3. You're defenestrating/defenestrated a helpless NPC! Or maybe they're not so helpless. They could be an assassin or something.
4. You're defenestrating the person who replied to you! (In the event that person happens to be your long lost brother, your beloved mother, your one true love, or someone equally close to you, you may assume that mind control was involved.)

(...it feels kind of weird to only have only four RNG prompts, but there's only so many ways to throw something out of a window. I mean, really.)

- And kick ass and take names.

[Among the most dissatisfying feelings in the world, to Isaac, is the end of his spear thrusting only through air. A fluke! He muses bitterly as she successfully evades the attacks, his nose wrinkling as his face warps into a savage grimace – and just as he is about to charge, her words have him faltering, his eyes widening slightly before his expression freezes over a split second afterwards. That would mean, to attack her now would be in direct opposition of Lord Dracula’s wishes, and to do so would warrant the most brutal of punishments- -

No, that cannot be possible.

An agreement between his master and this… scum? The very idea was ludicrous… and his Lord would have informed him, if such were the case. No, she was simply seeking his mercy in battle, Isaac concluded - and mercy and sympathy, as Dracula was oft fond of saying, was simply another form of weakness. Damn her smugness… and to think, for a moment, he had almost taken her words seriously!

He laughed. A laugh that begins as a deep, restrained chuckle, growing and growing - and then jaggedly rises in pitch as if he were in agony, a wild, unhinged, unhuman sound.

Persistently, he swings and stabs at her, carelessly knocking things off a nearby table.
