( MEMES ) TEST DRIVE >> 6

THE TEST DRIVE




Like it or not, you've been dragged from your world into 
the sanctum. It's a pretty nice city, all things considered--sci-fi, high-tech, glamourous.... Except, of course, for the giant dome encircling it, and the threat of glitching, contaminated zombies at your door. Looks like humanity's built itself a fortress that looks suspiciously like a cage, too. Toss in the odd memory blanks and the everpresent logo of Bifrons incorporated and it's enough to make someone paranoid.

The object of this meme is to get people familiar with the world of the Sanctum, and to try to see if their characters would fit in a sci-fi utopia such as this. Here are your options:

1. Intro: Waking Up. Make your intro post, folks. You wake up in a strange place, and get a strange transmission to go with it. There's a pair of glasses connected to some sort of communications network, but otherwise not much else in the room with you. What are you going to do? 

2. Environmental Glitching. You know the story of Noah? No? Now you're living it.  Sealed portions of the districts are overfilling with water, flooding streets, fields, and select city blocks. Do you climb up to get to safety, shut off the water, or find a way to break down the barrier to the next sector over? 

3. Genetic Altering. What it says on the tin. Except...it's not quite gone right, has it? Are you supposed to spit acid when you hiccup?  Are your insides acid resistant? No? Oh dear.  Warped experiments gone wrong, your augmentation has twisted around on you for horrific or hilarious results.

4. Memory Glitch. No one knows your face. You don't exist on the network. In fact...you're not all that certain you are who you think you are anyway. Haven't you always lived here?  

5. Military Training. Everyone's got to start somewhere. You're training the green folks, maybe you're one of the newcomers yourself. Maybe you haven't even touched a gun before in your life. Either way, you'd better start now.

6. Outside the Dome You're out and about without an armed escort, suited up against the atmosphere and dysthropes.  It's supposed to be a green sector in this run down shell of what used to be a suburb, right? Nothing could possibly go wrong

7. Wildcard. Choose your own adventure or create a cocktail from the presented options! The choice is YOURS.

[She shakes her head. Gale, Peeta, even Haymitch she'd be happy to see, but so far no one else.]

We're the only ones from home. I'll keep you safe here, don't worry.

I don't want you to have to worry about me. I can take care of myself.

[Especially if they were the only ones here. It changed things, made for a whole new set of rules.]

You don't need to worry about me.

[She knows Prim will anyway, but she's the older sister. This has been her job ever since their father died. She squeezes the young girl closer and can't help glancing down every so often. Prim's here, she's really here.]

Well, then... We just won't worry about each other. [Even if she'd be worrying no matter what. It was what she did. She would make sure Katniss was eating and sleeping, be there for her if she had a nightmare. She deserved at least a chance at happiness, or just peace.]

What's the food like here?

WHY ARE THEY SO CUTE

[personal profile] littlecatnip 2014-12-03 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Better than back home. There's enough of it to go around. [Something she's not used to and the inability to hunt has been driving her a little crazier than usual. But Prim's here now. That gives her something else to focus on. Something good.

She tries to manage a small smile as she tucks a loose strand of hair behind Prim's ear.]
I can make you whatever you want, little duck.

I WISH I KNEW

[Enough to go around... It's a strange way to think when it comes to food. She doesn't ask how they pay for it, not sure just how close it might be to home in other ways - especially when it came to extra rations.

Brown orbs look up, curious.]


Is there bread?

[She nods and feels a small wave of relief. If Prim has to be in this place, at least she can provide for her more easily.]

Yeah and no one to fight over it with.

Do you have to put your name in for extra rations? Is it like home?

[Because she wasn't going to get excited over something as rare as bread if it meant having to go through anything similar to the Games... Possibly involving those creatures she'd seen on the screen.]

[And here's where Katniss is unsure. All the information she's heard from others says this is very different from home while her gut feels the Capitol or even District 13 has a hand in this place. She hesitates for only a moment before deciding to stick with what she does know.]

They don't have the Games here. They've never heard of Panem. People work, they get paid, and they buy their food.
