In 200 meters, turn left, and take the highway

ROAD TRIP MEME


How To:
1. Post with your character and preferences.
2. Others tag you, and will you look at that, you're now on a road trip together! For some reason.
3. Optionally, roll from 1-15 to get your scenario.
4. ???
5. JACKPOT.

1: LOST You should have made a left toin at Albuquerque, or maybe you've been holding the map upside down this whole time! Whatever it is, you're hopelessly LOST. Will you make it back on the path to your destination, or will you find a new adventure? Try not to open any hatches.

2: Tourist Trap Okay, you're all for seeing the sights, but World's Biggest Doorstopper? World's Smallest Chicken? World's Noisiest Whistle? Do we really have to stop here, too?

3: Car Trouble Maybe you got a flat tire. Maybe your engine's stalled. Or maybe you just overestimated how far you could get on a half tank of gas. Either way, you're broke down on the side of the road and the nearest station is miles away; better get behind it and push!

4: Bad Weather Driving in the rain? No problem. Driving in torrential downpours or a blinding blizzard? Big problem! Better find a way to get out of the storm fast!

5: When Ya Gotta Go... Didn't I tell you to go before we left? Well, even if you did, maybe you shouldn't have had that 44 ounce Super Big Gulp, because there's not another rest stop for miles. Maybe you can find an empty bottle in the back...

6: Road Delays Stuck in traffic? Stuck at road construction? Stuck in a funeral procession? Bridge out? Whatever it is, it's blocking your way. Do you wait patiently, or maybe find your own way around it.

7: Smokey and the Bandit Oh no, those blue lights behind you can't be good. Maybe you should just pull over and accept your speeding ticket like a decent citizen. Or, maybe you should floor it. High speed chase anyone?

8: Night Driving You decided to drive through the night, and now it's one AM and you're all out of coffee. Wake up a friend and make them help you stay awake; falling asleep at the wheel is dangerous!

9: Ghost Town Boy, this town sure is quiet. And... kind of creepy. Oh God, did something in those corn rows just move? I hear banjo music; CAN'T YOU DRIVE ANY FASTER?!

10: Roadkill Good going, you hit an animal. I sure hope you feel good about yourself. Now you've killed the poor- oh, it's still moving? What do we do now!?
10a: The I Know What You Did Last Summer Edition That animal you hit was a little more human than you care for... oh dear...

11: ROAD RAGE That jerk cut me off! How dare he!? I'll make him pay! Or maybe you cut off a less-than-friendly driver of your own, and now he's after you...

12: Carjacked Awww, that was a good lunch. ...Wait, I know this is where we parked... Dude, where's the car!?!?

13: Hitchhiking Who said you needed a car for a road trip? Stick that thumb out and catch a ride where you're going. Maybe you and a buddy are chillin' with the pigs in a trailer, or maybe that nice looking hitchhiker you picked up down the road is not as nice as you thought...

14: Fantasy Car Roads? Where you're going, you don't need roads. If you're in Doc's DeLorean, anyway. Or maybe the car is really Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Or a spy car. Or the Batmobile. Or a Transformer! Whatever it is, this car is NOT normal.

15: Are We There Yet? Roller's choice! Pick your favorite option, or two, or three, or just roll with whatever feels right!

What, you don't think I'm capable? I'm restraining myself right now, my - [ he sneezes, ] right now!

[ . . .

he's also trying to dry off from said rain, so you know. maybe that's the real reason why. ]
brokeassgoing: (i just need to name this)

[personal profile] brokeassgoing 2019-06-23 06:22 am (UTC)(link)
What you're capable of right now are boogers.

[with a flick of his wrist tugs some napkins from the dispenser nearby and begins slapping them to Shawn's face with little fanfare]
unfulfilledpotential: (say that again?)

[personal profile] unfulfilledpotential 2019-06-24 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ he bristles, if only because he's not entirely used to touch despite always draping over his friends, before accepting the napkins with equally little fanfare. ]

By that same logic, aren't we all...? [ yeah, that's not even a good come back. He sighs, grabbing even more napkins - ] Thanks, anyway.
brokeassgoing: (cest la bitch)

[personal profile] brokeassgoing 2019-06-24 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Pfffft-- I'll let you come up with a better one later.

[he waves off the thanks, attention returning to his drink]
unfulfilledpotential: (linefacing)

[personal profile] unfulfilledpotential 2019-06-26 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he grimaces, finally drying off and ignoring how his hair floofs up with all that frizz, ]

You might have to wait a while. All I'm feeling is one big giant brain fog.
brokeassgoing: (i just need to name this)

[personal profile] brokeassgoing 2019-06-27 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Do you mean fart too?

[he's not in a hurry, not anymore. before it was more getting out of the weather, getting this over with, but now this heavy rain has settled over his bones.

or he just doesn't want to look like a drowned rat again]
unfulfilledpotential: (concerned here)

[personal profile] unfulfilledpotential 2019-06-30 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Not exactly. A brain fart's usually temporary. This feels more... [ he frowns, scrunching his whole face up, ] like it's gonna last a while?

I was gonna tell you something else, before we got in, but now I'm blanking on it.

[ ah, well. they're going to be here a while. his original worry, whatever it was in the car, can wait. ]
brokeassgoing: (feel good inc laugh)

[personal profile] brokeassgoing 2019-06-30 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
Mmm, nah I think it'll come back eventually. Your no-farted brain, and whatever you wanted to say.

[and bacon will solve everything too]

[ speaking of - if they haven't already put in their order for real food, shawn definitely does. he can worry about how to recoup the costs later. ]

I don't know... [ he sighs, overexaggerating it for dramatic effect, ] That train might've left the station.
brokeassgoing: (hard boiled)

[personal profile] brokeassgoing 2019-07-01 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Food solves everything. Especially greasy shit. That'll do the trick.

he does gesture for their server to pop on by so they can get something in their systems]
