VOICE-TESTING POST

Hey there! So I have characters, you all have characters... and I need some experience threading with some of my characters! Help a guy out? I'm gonna put some headers for different characters in here, and then toss prompts up in response to them! They... will probably be entirely murdergame-themed prompts, I am a simple creature. Feel free to respond!

If you want to do something that isn't a listed prompt, let's plan something out quick and one of us can drop a Bespoke Starter in response to the character toplevel! I am, perhaps, A Sucker for things like. You know. Shipping. If a character isn't ota, I'll mention it in the umbrella! But please do contact me elsewhere for other prompts. We can figure something out!

Uh... have fun and stay safe out there?

1 - fade in on some real upsetting shit

[ This is. Well, this is definitely a school, she can tell that much from the way it's laid out. This is a dorm room. But the vibes are solidly more "horror movie private school" than "cool art college."

Long story short, she is not a fan!

The small comfort she has, at least, as she gangles into the hallway, is that this is pretty definitely not robots. At least she hopes it isn't robots. Unless this is some kind of Matrix situation?

She can worry about the possibility that she is in a Matrix 4 mockbuster later. There's already immediately way more to be worried about. ]


Hello? Literally anyone? Is there... an RA around here? A professor? Another, more knowledgeable student? Another less knowledgeable student? ...A particularly intelligent squirrel, maybe?

2 - regains

[ Okay, so! The regain vending machine. Mostly she's gotten normal stuff - a couple things from home, that's weird, but she's not thinking too much about it - and you know what? She wants to have a normal time. She saw a dead human last week and she's sort of managed to get that compartmentalized, but something nice has to happen eventually, right? Right?

... Nope. Judging by the way she chucks whatever she got down the hall, that's not today! ]


Not today, demon!

[ That's a harsh way to greet this little friend! ]

Can you... would you mind checking to see if it's [ okay? ] on? I'm not letting one of those just exist loose in here.

This is what pity feels like, isn't it. Fuckin' trash-heap pathetic-

[Caius does not approach the Furby, just stares it down from around the hallway corner for a moment.]

[And then fluidly pulls a large dagger from the holster at his side, flips it to grip the blade between two fingers, and throws it down the hallway in a whizzing blur.]

[The crunching of metal into plastic and a distorted electronic warble herald the Furby's end.]

[Caius stalks into the hallway, returning a moment later with the skewered toy, holding it by the dagger's hilt.]


THIS little wad is what passes for a demon in your world?

[ It's... been an interesting sort of experience, getting to know the other people here. Some, like that Billy Loomis guy, seem pretty normal! And then, in camp "weird but cool but also definitely A Lot," there's this guy. ]

Um... yes and no?

[under no circumstances should Caius ever be told he's "cool," it would make him immediately several orders of magnitude more obnoxious]

[Also he's just standing there, arms crossed, with a skewered Furby. Calling it 'cool' is probably both pretty generous and kind of telling on yourself. Plus there's the smell of leaking battery fluids and corroding plastic, it's not great.]


It can't be yes and no, that's not how anything works.
