LIGHTS OUT
a dark room meme



Uh oh! Looks like something weird is happening, here! Did someone forget to pay the electricity bill? Or has that storm outside caused a blackout? Who knows! Reasoning aside, you are now trapped in darkness. You can't see anything, anything at all! And you can't even adjust to this darkness, for some reason! There's only black, black, black. Something about this room is odd, for certain!

How this is going to go down
♦ You will post as your character as ANON, because you're in the dark!
♦ There is no putting your character's name in the subject line. However, if you like, you can put your character's series/canon. It's no fun if you know who you're interacting with right away!
♦ You're free to set up your character fumbling around in the dark and such, just so you remember which comment is yours in this anon mess, if anything.
♦ Those who reply to you will roll the RNG for the specifics of the situation!
♦ Yay! In the dark shenanigans!!
♦ When you guys are ready, the lights go on, you can log into your character journals, and it's time to admire the awkward in the light.

ONE: WHY IS IT SO SMALL AND CRAMPED IN THIS ROOM? Wait, this isn't a room, this is a closet. It looks like you've been locked inside for Seven Minutes in Heaven, or just for shits and giggles! The door doesn't seem to be opening, and it sounds like some ... Barry Manilow is playing? Oh, talk about awkward.
TWO: BRR, WHY IS IT SO COLD? Looks like your clothes are missing! For some reason, you're only dressed in your underwear, or even commando if you feel like being really mean to your muse. Are you in bed with someone? Just can't find your clothes? Are THEY wearing your clothes? Up to you, because it really doesn't make it any less awkward.
THREE: A LITTLE HANDSY: Did someone just cop a feel? There's a lot of accidental (or... not accidental groping going on, for whatever reason! Talk about an awkward situation, mmmhmm!
FOUR: OOPS, STUCK! One of you is stuck somewhere in this room, and can't get out! Either in a hole in the floor or tied to a bed or something! Whatever you can think of! Hopefully the other person can help you out in the dark.
FIVE: ON AND OFF! Rather than totally darkness, the lights are flashing on and off, creepily. And it looks like there might be monsters in there with you guys?! Or are those illusions?

If you don't want to roll the RNG, that's fine! Go ahead and create your own situation, if you'd like!

Have fun, everyone!

How terribly hard can it be to find the switch? Are you feeling around the door?

...

And are you very certain it's the door?

[Squeaks.]

I thought that was a bit too- soft to be a door.

What're you doing getting in the way of my hands?

Excuse me---sorry, I think I've bumped into the two of you there.

Doesn't anyone have a torch?

[SQUEAK!]

Hands!

Blimey, how many of you are there?

I suppose you're not the door, either.

Sorry.

Ok. We better come up with a system. I'll be #2, since I tagged in first?

Because you're silly! Oh, hello.

Oh, hello, now you've gone and bumped into me! Here, just give me your hand!

[ So why is she reaching for the face level? ]

I'm #1, the original poster~

(Anonymous) 2012-11-10 10:40 am (UTC)(link)
Wait, are you talking to me, or--?

Oh!

[She scrabbles to retrieve the hand from about her neck.]

[ Good thing too, because someone almost caught hold of your hair and has fingers stupid enough to get tangled in it.

As it stands, two hands have now been joined. This one has just a slight hint of nails. ]


Alright, there's one. You, Lonely, come here!

[ Free hand searching, searching....

There's the sound of a splash. ]


What was that?
