THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MEME

Probably the most self-explanatory meme. You know. You got a shrinking laser to the chest, you found a bottle labeled "DRINK ME", you got exposed to chemicals. Or maybe you're Ray Palmer and its Tuesday.

Either way, you've now got some huge problems to overcome. If you'll pardon the pun.

RULES ~Comment to this post. Your character is now of a much more miniscule height. ~Characters who respond have the choice either be fellow bedbugs, or newly-sworn-in citizens of the Land of the Giants. ~Roll for an RNG scenario or make your own scenarios. But honestly, its no big deal to us~ ~Not that we anticipate it, but we may as well include the obligatory. Violence, injury, death, cannibalism, sex, and swearing or just plain you-don't-like-the-concept-of-shrinking is possible in this meme, so be warned, there may be possible triggers.

POSSIBLE PROMPTS

1. Suddenly Small: Well, that was abrupt. Wait, when did the floor tile become so huge? When did the chair turn into Mount Everest!? WHEN DID FLUFFY GET LIKE THAT!? Oh shi-

2. He Can't Hear Us: HEY! HEY!! DOWN HERE!! DOWN HERE, I'M RIGHT HERE!! HEY!! Come on, I'm trying to get your attention!! No I'm not a bug, it's me!! HOW DO I GET YOUR ATTENTION ALREADY!?

3. The Exotic Backyard Death Trap: Its amazing how size can change one's surroundings and the danger it poses. Seriously, who would have thought your bedroom was actually a trap-infested swamp of terror that is trying to kill you in a million ways?

4. Stuck in a Cobweb: Because someone is always getting stuck in a cobweb with a giant, hungry spider bearing down on them. Or getting washed away by a puddle, or trapped in or on something that they need rescuing from, because what are survival skills when you're an inch or so tall. A little help, please?

5. Attack of the Giants: WELP someone is about to get eaten by someone normal-sized. Or stepped on. Or vacuumed up into a Dirt Devil. You can try to get said person's attention. Or try to save yourself. Or try to run the hell away. Or give up, but you've gotten so far!

6. I Shall Call Him George: There are tons of bugs and animals crawling around when you're tiny. So, what's the logical thing to do when faced with one? Mount it and tame it to be your pimping ride, of course! Your friends would be so jealous of you right now if you were visible to the naked eye.

7. Hey Look Mom I Am Totally A Bug: Finally, finally, someone spots you! It took them long enough to figure out you didn't spontaneously combust or hitchhike to Myanmar or whatever it is they thought you did. And...wait, did they even notice you were missing until now?!

7. Normal Sized: Does this need explanation?! YOU'RE BACK TO NORMAL SIZE! WOOO! Now you can reflect on what you learned from your experience...if...you're the type of person who actually learns from your experience. You could also just punch the person who invented the apparatus which shrunk you to begin with. Hey, we won't judge.

8. Wild Card: Mix, match, or make up your own scenario!

He had worked this spell with care and a slow hand, going carefully over the details and the precious bit of the blood smeared across his knuckles after the New Year's Eve incident. He was still entirely too fond of that. So, for now he stepped out to assess the pocket sized Bruce, "Well. What have we here."

YEAH, YOU ROLL

[Yeah this was the guy who did it. ttly an accident though.]

/late to the shrinking party, 1!

[labcoatgirl]

She had only just fallen asleep on the couch, waiting for Bruce to come back from some errand. There was the strangest dream....

The sound of the door opening wakes her and Betty yawns, stretching out as she gets up....wait.

The couch was not this big when she went to sleep.

"Bruce?" He probably wouldn't even hear her, she was about three inches tall and the whole room was now HUGE.

Haha. #5? Who cares, it's crack.

[russianred]

[Natasha doesn't notice that her boot nearly makes a linoleum stain out of Bruce when she enters the lab to ask to borrow a clamp holder. As far as appearances go, he isn't there. Furthermore, she doesn't have time to hunt him down, and figures if he let her use tongs once, surely he wouldn't mind her using a clamp holder. So if she takes it upon herself to (carefully) go sifting through drawers, please don't go Hulk on her.]

[Of all the times to be in Megamind's lair, the shrink ray just had to go off. And guess who was in the way of it? This guy. When he opens his eyes, he looks to see that everything in the room towers over him. No this wasn't-- this wasn't right! Pitch pats at his chest, to solidify that, yes, this was real.

Quickly, Pitch scrambles along the lair's floor, running along it to seek out the blue alien, shouting as loud as he can.]
