 t h e   TRAPPED TOGETHER   m e m e
(expanded edition; originally from memebells @ lj)




Ever wanted to tag a character yours has no good reason to know? Ever wanted your character to be forced to interact with someone they're supposed to hate? Now's your chance!

You character has been trapped somewhere-- and they're not alone. Pick the scenario(s) and genre(s) you're open to, and post with your choices and character's information in the subject line. Use the random number generator or your own discretion to reply to others' posts.



SCENARIOS:

1. TRAPPED IN AN ELEVATOR The old standby. You're stuck until someone can rescue you, or until one or both of you can get this box moving again.

2. TRAPPED IN AN UNDERGROUND BUNKER Maybe there's a nuclear winter, or maybe you were just exploring and wandered in here. Either way? Right now, you're stuck.

3. TRAPPED IN A CAR You were driving long-distance when your ride broke down, so now you're stuck in the middle of nowhere until else someone happens by.

4. TRAPPED IN A MALL AFTER HOURS Somehow, you managed to get stuck in the mall after closing. Maybe you fell asleep in the bathroom, or were hiding in the back of the bookstore, but now the doors are locked, and you've got the whole place almost to yourself.

5. TRAPPED IN A MAZE Entering that maze seemed like such a good idea, didn't it? Only now you can't find your way out, and you're pretty sure you're not alone in here...

6. TRAPPED ON AN ISLAND You should have known better than to trust any three hour cruise or any last minute flight over the ocean. In the chaos you've gotten stuck on a different island from the rest of the survivors (there are others, right?), but you'll probably still be close enough for rescuers to find you if you build a big enough fire. At least you have the island to yourselves... don't you?

7. TRAPPED IN THE WILDERNESS It was a great idea to go trekking out into the wilderness until you got separated from the group you were on, or you lost your map in a mad escape from something... unfortunate. If you're lucky there's a cabin to stay in. If you're less lucky, one of you brought a tent. If not... then you better get trekking home in a hurry. There're animals out there, you know.

8. OTHER/COMBO Any other scenarios that tickle your fancy.

GENRES:

i. Survival Horror
ii. Smut
iii. Gen
iv. Fluff
v. Crack
vi. Action
vii. Other/Combo

[At least he brought his! Gosh, didn't your parents tell you to never leave the house without your phone, Wally?

Anyway, he shrugs.]


I'd actually rather be out of here instead of racing to a furniture store against a speedster...

[YOU'D NEED A HANDICAP TO RACE BART okay, sorry.]

At least walking there sounds more fair.

[Duh, Wally doesn't come from a family of barbarians or anything.]

I think we're stuck, unless we try breaking the doors down...

[Then run like hell, since that's bound to raise an alarm or two.

Wally jumps back up and grins.]


Let's go then, we can test out the mattresses.

[By jumping on them, obviously. Possibly making a fort too, hmmm. Anyhow Wally starts walking in the direction of the store.]
angroy: (Not sure what this is for.)

[So, Wally's the only barbarian then.]

Fine.

[Today just happens to be the day Roy doesn't feel like dealing with the police's crap, so he'll follow along. Who knows? Maybe the jumping and building a fort could be fun after all. Hmmm.]
runrightround: (Season 2 doesn't make any sense tho.)

[...excuse you.]

[Walking through an empty mall is really weird. Almost spooky.

Wally will keep that thought to himself though, uhhhhh. Hey look at that, they're at the store. There's one of those metal grate things blocking the entrance though. Ah man.]


Huh. You don't have a lock pick, do you?
angroy: (Was that a drug joke?)

[personal profile] angroy 2012-12-06 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[You're excused.]

No. Left it in my other jacket.

[If he had one, he would have been using it on the exit doors.]
runrightround: (I was not listening to J Biebz get out.)

You should look into getting a utility belt.

[And then carry it everywhere like Robin. Even to the bathroom.

Wally has the really genius idea of kicking at the grate. It wasn't very effective.

Unless his goal was to hurt his toes, then it was super effective!!!]


Ow.

That's Batman and Robin's thing.

[Besides, he has his quiver, although carrying that around 24/7 would be ridiculous. Maybe he should get a utility belt. Hm.]

That was smart, by the way.

I don't think they have it trademarked or anything.

[Yet.]

I didn't see you trying anything.

[YEP. HE SURE IS TRYING NOT TO LOOK EMBARRASSED.]
angroy: (Not sure what this is for.)

[personal profile] angroy 2012-12-09 08:52 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if the gate's pulled down over it and we don't have a lock pick, our next idea is to keep it moving.
runrightround: (Duuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.)

[personal profile] runrightround 2012-12-11 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
...So, you want to walk in circles until the mall opens in the morning?

[Gee that sounds.]
angroy: (Not sure what this is for.)

[personal profile] angroy 2012-12-11 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, of course, I call dibs on that bench over there if the rest of the stores with beds are gated.
runrightround: (That means I can keep the helmet right?)

[personal profile] runrightround 2012-12-11 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Glancing over at the bench in question. That doen't look very comfortable at all.]

Okay, but you realize there's a couch upstairs too, right?

[The really ugly one outside the bookstore. It's not all that comfortable either, but it's better than a bench.]
angroy: (Man how is she related to someone)

[personal profile] angroy 2012-12-12 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
...then let's go upstairs and see if there are anymore couches.

[Because that does sound more appealing than a bench.]
runrightround: (See this spoon?)

[personal profile] runrightround 2012-12-13 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, but if you really want to sit on a bench all night, I won't stop you.

[Hehehe. Heading towards the escalators anyway... or just the stairs, since they're not moving.]
angroy: (Was that a drug joke?)

[personal profile] angroy 2012-12-16 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I'll pass on that.

[He heads for the stairs, too.]
