what has it got in its pocketses?

Well? Cough it up! The Pocketses Meme comes in three complementary flavors; mix and match to your taste, respect other people's preferences, tag around, etc.

VERSION ONE - The Character Exercise: Post a top-level comment with your character, and a list of everything they're carrying on their person at this moment. Compare and comment. Make fun of other people's choice in gum flavors. Have a ball.

VERSION TWO - The Party(?) Game: Post a top-level comment. Subject line: character / fandom / blahblah. Body: What have I got in my pocket? Whoever replies gets three guesses. If they guess any one item right, they win; if not, you win. Whoever loses pays a forfeit. Cannibalism optional.

VERSION THREE - The Scenario: Roll 1-8. Your character is now stuck in the corresponding setting, with nothing but those pocket-contents. And another character, who presumably has pockets of their own. Between you, you can probably figure out a solution to your problem, right? Right?

settings

1.	A locked room. There is one small window, which doesn't open, and a water cooler. For some reason.
2.	A remote desert island, with no phone reception. Just lots of sand and palm trees.
3.	A small, sparsely provisioned rowboat in the middle of the ocean.
4.	A rooftop at least four stories above the ground. Locked door, no fire escapes. There is a pigeon, though.
5.	A maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
6.	A dark cavern at the bottom of a mountain, likely to be attacked by goblins at any moment. Because.
7.	An open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door. There is a small mailbox here.
8.	Your neighborhood bar. Listen, I didn't specify a survival situation. Shut up and drink your beer. (Or reroll.)

[Let's try versions one and three!

Glimmer has in her pockets a small hank of jute twine, looped and tied around itself, a pocket emergency sewing kit, a wallet first aid kit - the basic kind with self adhesive bandages and a few sealed antibacterial wipes, two handkerchiefs, three interesting rocks, and a very small writing pad in a metal notebook style cover held shut with a pen. Also a few candies twisted into waxed paper.

Everything is purple, except you know. The twine (because she's holding onto it for Bow, so it's just natural jute color). The rocks. And the candies, they're assorted, but they're you know. Pastel. The sewing kit and wallet part of the first aid kit are decorated with Bright Moon's crescent moon heraldry. So are the handkerchiefs.]

[Option 1: 2 packs of cigarettes, 10 bucks, coins, car keys, half a pot brownie, lighter, part of a chocolate bar, pack of gum and a bullet casing.]

[VERSION THREE: A silver cigarette case, a pocket-watch and chain, a half-empty matchbook, a pen-knife, a magnifying lens, and a small lockpicking kit for solving (or committing) crimes.]

[Version one or three! Not that he's got a lot in his pockets; there's basically just a small wallet with money, a pretty thick notebook with accompanying pen, and a silver pocketwatch on a chain. The cover of the watch is pretty elaborate though.]

{Opt. 1: Silver cigarette case, several pencils in various stages of sharpness and length, a silver billfold with a few pound notes clipped in (but like most men of his class, he rarely deals in ready money), his spectacles, little tin of watercolors. And, tucked carefully away in the breast pocket, behind the sketchbook is a Wilhelm von Gloeden photograph of a couple of bronzed youths lounging in quasi-classical dress. He swears it isn't his, but Harry's and he just keeps forgetting to give it back.}
