( MEMES ) TEST DRIVE >> 8
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. Bifrons Annual Gala. All the creme de la creme--and the Immune--are invited to the Bifrons annual gala, filled with food (real meat!) and drink (sunshine in a glass!) and expensive clothing you could want. Do you have anything to wear? Are you going to use this opportunity to schmooze, to sneak around to find some answers while everyone is distracted, or be an awkward wallflower? Or scoff at home about how everyone is so concerned with these silly events instead of cures?
3. Alterations. Feel like you need an edge in the city? Find yourself injured and looking at options? Why not consider genetic alterations or, better yet, upgrading to a better, healthier you? Be warned, some of the side effects can be a little unpleasant.
4. Down with the Sickness. Something's going around. Is it a cold? The flu? Something worse? Are you immune to it, or just lucky? Are you sitting in a hospital waiting room, hoping to get seen, or just holed up in bed with the sniffles? Someone should bring you some soup and keep you company! Or complain with you.
5. Sewer Run. There's something (or somethings) lurking beneath the streets of Proles. You and other lucky people have been picked out, given a gun and a flashlight, and told good luck. What do you find down there? What finds you? Was that a cot and some discarded tablets in that alcove?
6. Outside the Dome. You're out and about without an armed escort, suited up against the atmosphere and dysthropes. Nothing could possibly go wrong...until it does. Was that a dysthrope moving...or a person?
7. WILDCARD. Choose your own adventure or create a cocktail from the presented options! The choice is YOURS.
Bucky Barnes | MCU
To his credit, he does not actually start tearing the place down after he's discovered what's going on. It's a strong instinct, one that is telling him to fight, to tear away from this place because like hell anyone else is getting their hands on him, but he keeps himself from wreaking havoc just yet.
Instead he leaves, changing clothes and collecting what he can and leaves. He has no idea where he's going but he knows the first thing he needs to do is get an idea of the layout. That is imperative if he's going to be able to do anything else.
Moving through the hall, he listens carefully for noise and tracks any shadows he sees under the cracks. He's not going to engage just yet, simply try and learn exactly what the terrain seems to be like, and then maybe he will do something.
He's trying to tell himself that he's going to be fine, that this is one more thing he will survive, but his brain is struggling against the idea, attempting to revolt and tell him he will always be used, always be turned into a weapon for someone.
[Network (Sewer Run)]
[He's been given a mission.
It's not thrilling but it's a purpose, it's something he can focus on and something he excels at doing. A part of him says that this is good, that having orders is what he needs but he knows it's playing into what they ant. He's still not sure if that is a good thing or not.
He's not going in half cocked and, since he knows there are others going in with him, he's not letting them do it either. Thus information gathering.] Who has been assigned here? What are our plans?
waking up
She hangs back, blending into her surroundings as much as she can and staying a corner turn behind where she can, but he's good and in her estimation, he has to know that he's being followed about a second after it started. All she can do is hope that he woke up similarly without weapons or that he's interested in talking.
no subject
"Who are you," he finally asks after a few more paces. "What do you want?" He's not going to lash out just yet but if she proves to be a threat, he's not going to hesitate. For now though, he's going to try and keep things civil.
sorry about the slow speed. I'm on hiatus, but I was excited to see Bucky. :D
"I should be asking you the same thing." Her weight shifts on her feet. To anyone else, it might seem an unsure gesture, but it's purely defensive. "Do you remember me?"
<3333 No worries at all.
Nothing else really mattered to him then and he's not sure if it's supposed to now.
"Do I get answers?" There's a tone to his voice that says he's expecting to be denied, that getting answers is not what he deserves to get. But if he doesn't have answers now, he has no idea what he's supposed to do and he' so, so tired of not knowing what to do.
