FIND THE AIRPORT: THE MEME



FIND THE AIRPORT: THE MEME
1. You are in some random part of the world. Instead of random.org go to MAPCRUNCH.COM and see what location you get when you search a random location. Your character and the character that they respond to are now on a quest to FIND THE AIRPORT.
2. Finding the airport is the only way out of this meme.
3. We don't care if you end up in the middle of Russia, you must FIND THE AIRPORT.
4. Hard mode: No airport finding superpowers may be used.
5. This is based on a tumblr meme, in which users had to find the airport on mapcrunch, no matter where they ended up. It is a hellish game of pain, and now you can play it ICly!
6. art is from http://paintdoktahwho.tumblr.com/

(( mapcrunch gave me Luční, Ostrava, Moravian-Silesian Region, Czech Republic ; you can choose somewhere else if you prefer, or go with that! ))

I'm not even sure this properly counts as a road. [He is inspecting the path before them.] I could tell you. If certain parties weren't preventing me from doing so.

ahahaha that location!

[This road is so long. They've been walking down it for easily twenty minutes, and that's twenty long minutes in which Shrieky has allowed himself to stew in a growing pool of directionless indignation at their plight. Even in the best of times, walking is pretty much the most terrible thing in the entire world, and this is not the best of times.

Finally, he can stew no longer:]


We should stop! We should just give up and get jobs and live here forever!

[Fuck the airport. He doesn't even fully understand what an airport is]

total accident.

[personal profile] pyr 2012-09-15 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
[A soft, almost annoyed sigh escapes his lips as he stops in his tracks, waiting for his companion.]

And why should we give up? I didn't think you were of the faint-hearted.
wontturntofoam: a wet, unhappy looking man (lol went for a swim)

mapcrunch clearly thinks he should get in touch with his heritage.

[personal profile] wontturntofoam 2012-09-15 10:00 am (UTC)(link)
I am not!

[He is a bit. But the insistence that he isn't sends his voice high with outrage.]

But we don't even know if we're going the right way! And if we aren't then we could just be walking forever and never know that it is on a meaningless fools quest!
pyr: (ᴏ ᴘʀɪɴᴄᴇ ᴏ ᴄʜɪᴇғ)

ah, last time he was there, his father died. been there, killed that.

[personal profile] pyr 2012-09-16 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Then we should continue on. [He starts to walk again. Following him?]

Yet, we shan't know if we aren't unless we find out by walking and exploring.
wontturntofoam: a man in profile, looking to the side (Profile.)

I hope you enjoy your extremely depressing life, victor.

[personal profile] wontturntofoam 2012-09-16 11:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Shrieky makes an agitated noise, but he does follow.]

Why do you assume we can find out by walking? I have it on good authority that there is so much space on the earth that we could literally walk until we died without finding what we are looking for!

[He hurries a little, so he can walk beside Victor. Because every argument is more compelling when it comes from the side.]
pyr: (Default)

oh he will /forever alone

[personal profile] pyr 2012-09-17 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
I, on the other hand, have it on good authority, as an explorer, scientist, and native of Geneva, that we will find our destination before we die. [Though, if Shrieky keeps on, well, shrieking, Victor's patience and pacifism might wear thin and he'd kill him.]
wontturntofoam: a man making a bit of a pissy face (feeling a little pissy)

[personal profile] wontturntofoam 2012-09-17 10:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh Victor, this is only the pre-shriek warm up. It's barely a 1.5 on the shriek-o-meter!]

If you're a native of Geneva, then what's your problem with getting jobs and staying here forever? And how does your being a scientist help us in any way?

[Hey, Tony. You know how you were in need of a ride? Yeah. Barton's got it covered.

He rolls up and pulls alongside, beeps the horn once, and leans over to unlock the passenger side door to let him in, looking rather pleased with himself.

Get in, loser.]


Not a bad view.

[As if seeing it for the very first time and clearly more interested in it than anything Tony's got to say.]

[personal profile] fun_vee 2012-09-15 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ Tony takes a minute to eye the car, raising an eyebrow at the driver.]

You have got to be kidding me. We're in the cradle of civilization for classy cars, and you show up to get me in a Plymouth.

[ He can't deny it's got flash, though, even if it sticks out like the sorest of sore thumbs in an orthopedic surgeon's operation records. As to the comment about the view? That gets a casual shrug. ]

It's been better. And it's even better from the air, which you'll never know if we don't get moving, birdbrain.
forgothowtomiss: (lolwhut)

[personal profile] forgothowtomiss 2012-09-15 12:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Come on, it's a sweet ride; I'm not gonna rent one of those tiny Italian things just because we're in Sicily, there's no leg room. This is a classic.

I could've grabbed Vespas, so. Keep that in mind.

[He rolls his eyes and maybe if you were IN the car, Tony, you'd already be going. But once he is they're off, by and large ignoring posted speed limit signs completely.]

Do you always whine this much?
fun_vee: (pic#4060582)

[personal profile] fun_vee 2012-09-15 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Classic, yes. Subtle, no.

[..yeah, he's not one to talk, but still.]

Nah, it's special for you. Take a left up here.

[personal profile] toxic_tsarina 2012-09-15 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
[What had been official business between employee and employer had of course resulted in holidaying and...pleasurable relaxing. The conference meetings had ended three days ago, but they weren't scheduled to be back in New York for another few hours, and Tony has seized the opportunity to enjoy Italy and its neighboring island.

Only...they couldn't quite seem to find where they needed to be going. For the umpteenth time, Natalie scanned the map she had spread in her lap, frowning.
]

Either you're trying to surprise me again or we're lost, Tony.
fun_vee: (Default)

[personal profile] fun_vee 2012-09-16 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Or we're taking a scenic drive through the wonderful countryside before going back to New York. Clean air versus smog fumes.

[He totally knows where he is. Ish. Approximately. Don't doubt him, Natalie.]
toxic_tsarina: I'm still part of this machine (Stressed)

[personal profile] toxic_tsarina 2012-09-17 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
Being your assistant takes years off my life, I sometimes think.

[Little does she know the nearest airport was two hours away on the east coast. Natalie sighs and drops the map, arms folding.]

And if we miss the plane because of this scenic route, boss?

[ Someone is not happy to be in Moscow. Not happy at all. But they had what they came here for, and now the issue is getting out of Russia.

Bucky turned the map (folded to palm-size) over in his hand, looking at the neatly marked black 'x' that was their extraction and the equally neat red one that was their target and current location. ]


We're looking at about thirty kilometers, that way. [ He added in a directional-point to demonstrate. After a second of silence opened his mouth to make a smart-ass comment about Hawkeye having wings to go with the getup, but broke off; no way they're close enough for cracks at each others' identities yet. ]

[She always seems to come back to the Motherland, and that it's with Barton again, well...déjà vu doesn't quite cover it.

The plane is set to leave that evening, but as for its location, that is anyone's guess.
]

Since when does SHIELD tech fail us? Something's not right here...

[Nat frowns and purses her lips in though, eyeing the landscape.]

[ So being surrounded by scooters wasn't exactly what Junko had in mind for this kind of despair filled invasion with one of her reluctant second in command(s), but she'd make do with this kind of expedition. ]

Enma! [ She'd call out, turning to the other before putting her hand on her hips. ] Did we take a wrong turn?
mischancer: dns! (♚.o3)

[personal profile] mischancer 2012-09-15 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ While he had absolutely no idea as to why she decided to drag him around for the mean time, Enma did not bother to even openly question it. Instead, he submitted to her taking him from one place to another without even noticing where they were at all.

Which... lead to something bad happening.
]

I dunno.
sixfaced: ( pixiv id: ??? ) (☆ look at it!)

[personal profile] sixfaced 2012-09-15 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
You don't know? Well, that's fine, y'know!

[ She'd even wrap her arms around his head in a show of " affection " before saying. ]

Then you can lead us out of here no problem! ~
mischancer: (♚ .1o)

[personal profile] mischancer 2012-09-15 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
How is it fi--... ?!

[ And he's immediately going to jump as soon as she wrapped her arms around him. He didn't ask for this. ]

I'm not going to be able to get us back home if you hold onto me...
sixfaced: ( pixiv id: ??? ) (☆ hand holding.)

[personal profile] sixfaced 2012-09-15 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ As soon as he'd jump she'd simply move back as if she never touched him at all, taking quick enjoyment in his reaction to her touch. She'd pat him on his back! ]

I fixed it, so go ahead!
mischancer: dns! (♚ .o2)

[personal profile] mischancer 2012-09-15 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He sighed once she had let go, but had almost twitched when she patted him on the back. ]

Alright, alright... I guess we'll go... that way?

[ It seemed that they were in some kind of city, despite not being able to read any of the signs. And it's not like they can just take one of the many scooters that lined the sidewalk, so there's not much the two of them can do. ]
