the survival meme

Acts of nature, vicious monsters, merciless enemies, and treacherous worlds. These are circumstances which put your skills and your wit to the ultimate test: the struggle to survive. Maybe you're fit enough to make it on your own, or maybe you're in over your head. Either way, can you afford to help a friend or stranger in need? That's a decision you'll have to make in the moment.

scenarios

1. wilderness
Whether you're stranded, adventuring, or simply camping, the wild has been known to turn on those who would appreciate her splendor in an instant. Wild animals, inclement weather, hazardous territory, and food that fights back are just some of the things you'll need to contend with to survive.

2. natural disaster
Earthquakes, floods, avalanches, and more. These forces of nature are hard to predict, and even harder to control. You may need more than just your own wit and ingenuity to make it through this.

3. post-apoc
The world has met with some disaster - be it war, a climate event, an invasion - and for most, all the comforts of modern life are a thing of the distant past. How have the stragglers survived so far?

4. alien planet
You've landed on a strange and unknown world, and you have no idea what dangers could lurk ahead. The very air could be poison, and on some worlds, even the plants have teeth!

5. zombies
Whatever you do, don't get bitten. No one can afford to spare your life when the virus takes hold.

6. robot uprising
Humanity has been pushed to the very brink of existence on their own world, as AIs rise up to take their place as the rightful stewards of the planet. Do you even stand a chance against intelligence and physical ability far superior to a mere fleshy being?

7. monsters
Take care and stay on your guard, for this territory is crawling with foul beasts who will come for you at any sign of... fear, sound, movement, blood... or what have you!

8. battle royale
In this nightmare, your enemies are the very people who are trapped here with you. Do you team up to survive, or do you take no prisoners?

9. enemy territory
This is your most dangerous mission yet: you're heading right into the enemy's lair.

10. wildcard
Anything goes!

Especially fond of post-apocalypse, alien planet and monsters. Things where action can happen. I would love a situation where J’onn and partner are on a mission to set things right and these darn survival situations keep getting in the way.

[ Option 1: He IS the monster you're running from.

Option 2: You're in his house (his territory), and he's the enemy.

Option 3: You've taken shelter from something, and you're not alone. Which is worse, the threat or your new company? ]

[ Being an intergalactic do-gooder, it was no surprise that J’onn would eventually be part of the efforts to do-good in the galaxy and prevent mass extinction events.

Getting shot down by those pro-extinction is also not surprising but it is frustrating. ]

This may take some time.

[ Having lost all vehicles in the crash, J’onn examines a fritzing handheld computer, attempting to establish contact with… anyone, really. And failing. ]

[scoopstrooper]

[Obviously she has experience with monsters, battle royale, and a little bit of enemy territory but would be down for any of the prompts. Voice testing but OTA, F/F for shipping if it comes up, would love canonmates but entirely open to cross canon, etc. Robin comes from the very end of s3 so let me know if you'd like to avoid spoilers.]

[moon_heroine]

(OoC: Team up with a magical girl to survive? I'm game for monsters, but if there's one you like I wouldn't mind hitting that instead!)

kazan yamaoka; the oni | dead by daylight | ota

[bloodbaths]

[ open to all scenarios, cross-canon and AUs loved! canonically the threat people have to survive, but a situation where he has to work together with somebody to survive something else would be excellent. Who doesn't want a 7+ ft tall demon samurai on your side? ]

[onewaytohell]

[demon samurai + demonologist uneasy truce to survive something worse? possibly more traditional demons, monsters, something like that? Eldritch horrors other than the Entity...]
