The In Media Res Meme, already in progress.

  • ...-g other people.

  • Assume that a scene's been going on for a while and you're starting in the middle of the action. (If you don't know what in media res means, Webster defines it as, "In or into the middle of a narrative or plot.") If you need an idea of what might've happened/is happening/will be happening then...

    You know. RNG. Numbers.

    1. And that was when the small animal tried to jump on your character.
    2. And that was when your character realized that what they just ingested tasted horrible.
    3. And that was when your character was informed that recovery would take longer.
    4. And that was when your character got shot at.
    5. And that was when your character turned the corner and saw something or another.
    6. And that was when your character ruined the story/joke/information they were trying to tell and just messed up on the delivery.
    7. And that was when the plan backfired.

  • And have fun.

The brave and perky Rikku tried to fight off the oddly handsome slime-boy, but she was finding out that striking against an amorphous adversary isn't as easy as it seems.

"You're pretty feisty, aren't you?" He asked. "It's not often I run into a thief girl as daring as you, y'know?"

Rikku was also finding out he was rather sticky as well; since her boots were currently stuck in a thick mass of his gooey slime on the ground...slime capable of holding someone 10 times as strong as Rikku easily.
