the UTTER CHAOS meme



Quick! Run! Hide! Scream! Flail uselessly! That's about all you'll be able to do against... whatever we're all afraid of. Um. What was that, again? Well, nevermind, it's scary anyway.

If you're a character in this meme, you have suddenly found yourself amidst a group of people, all of whom are panicking about... something. For the moment, it's not immediately obvious what that something is, but it seems like they all know something you don't. Maybe there's a tornado coming. Maybe there's a sudden flea infestation and you just haven't gotten swarmed yet. Maybe Cthulhu is just around the corner. Maybe everyone but you is mind controlled and trying to get away from crazy delusions of aliens landing and all singing Nyan cat in about fifteen different keys.

Or maybe it's all just a false alarm that's gotten out of control. But can you really afford to assume that?

Will you join in the flailing, try to snoop out the root cause, or be the one trying to get everyone else to just calm down already?

Rules
1. Your character will run into other characters in the midst of the panic.
2. Write the reason for panicking in the subject line, or label it as open for responders to make up. (Or leave everyone clueless, that works, too!)
3. ?????
4. CHAOS!!!!! And, you know, profit.

Just remember, when in doubt,
run in circles, scream and shout!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!

They do? Really? I haven't seen anybody get as angry as I do before...

[tooshytofly]

Oh, yes, everypony has bad days! If yours are a little worse, it's okay, because you're still a very nice guy in the end!

[Ralph smiles at this.]

Thanks. And thanks for giving me a chance. I just wish that everybody else understood the way things are like you do.

[tooshytofly]

[There's quite a bit of shy blushing.]

Oh...oh, I do try to understand, I'm so happy I helped. You take care of yourself when you go back to your game, okay?

[wreckingduty]

[Ralph nods.]

I'll do my best to.

And, uh, sorry about the mess I made here.

[tooshytofly]

Don't worry--my critter friends will help us clean up. Even Mr. Bear!

[wreckingduty]

[Ralph chuckles slightly.]

Hopefully it won't be too much trouble for everyone.

[tooshytofly]

I don't think it will be.

[wreckingduty]

[Ralph smiles.]

I'm thankful for that.
