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.

I doubt you'd know him. He's not from around here. Neither am I, for that matter.

Nor I. Me? I'm in town on business. Preferably brief business. But then I walked by and I saw all the...window-chucking and -- hell, what can I say? I'm a curious kinda gal.

I think I'm from a little farther away. To be honest, I don't actually know where here is. I ended up here after a spell gone...haywire. However, since I don't even know what half the things I threw out the window even were, that seems to indicate that I'm definitely in the wrong place, and possibly in the wrong time, hence my frustration.

Well, you do look a little...medieval. No -- uhm -- offense.

None taken, though I'm not entirely familiar with the term.
herotypical: [ happy ] (✝ we have found our solace here)

Well? Look it up and you'd see your own picture next to it.

"I...see." He simply looks vaguely confused.
