What would your character do in the above situation?

Rose: Seriously! First my vacation gets interupted. Twice. And now I can't even eat lunch without an attack! -transforms and curb stomps it, then continues eating as if nothing happened-

Your character has been waiting for video game/book/whatever to come out. They finally go to get it, waiting in line for hours. They get up to the counter only to find out they just sold out.

Tina shrugs it off, asks when the next shipment would be in, and waits another day, As for Heidi, however...

Heidi: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Your character is about to bite into their lunch at a restaurant, but sees the dreaded "C" rating on the wall of the restaurant.

Stella: "Aw, Fuck it. If I get sick, at least I can miss work." *NOMNOMNOM*

Your character finds a lamp in a genie. What do they do?

Ian (to genie): "Y'right, mate? Y'might wanna get that looked at."

Your character is suddenly able to have a week off from everything (their quest/universe/job/whatever is not going to fall apart while they're gone) what do they do?

Aragaki Hato: *sleeps*

Your character suddenly becomes god for a day, but any changes he/she makes would be reversed after a day. What would he/she do?

Cora: If she were a goddess, she would want to make some changes for good, and if they won't stick, the offer feels pointless to her. She doesn't like having to be in power anyway. If she doesn't reject the offer outright, she probably does some waffly thing like let everyone enjoy a day or total world peace and contentment while showing contempt for whoever made the cheesy offer to her in the first place.

Ran: It's not thew changes she's interest in, it's the chance to find out how this whole "godhood" thing works, and maybe push the limits to see what the rules are and how omnipotence works. She probably does weird experiments in the name of figuring out the exact nature of divinity. She trieds to avoid harming people, but otherwise, the world is gonna be a little weird for a day while she plays around.

The next character is goaded into buying some stocks. How do they choose what to invest in, and how good would they be at playing the market?

Lottie: Dartboard and about average at playing the market.

David: Pick what his parents recommend and above average because he's pretty good with money.

Mel: Dartboard and awesome at playing the market because of her powers. Would not stay in the market for very long so she isn't in a situation where she'd have to either break the masquerade or go to jail for insider trading.

Your Character is forced to take some classes at a Community college (or closest equivalent). What classes do they take and why?

It was a dark and stormy day. The alarm clock started bleeping furiously at, precisely, eight thirty. Amy punched the horrible time demon off her nightstand. She got up and made her way into the kitchen, all the while trying to avoid piles of laundry and pieces of said alarm clock... There was a post-it note one the fridge which read: milk, eggs, meeting with the Dean for class picking.

Amy:Oh man! Is this today?!

Why am I doing this again?, Amy thought to herself. Oh yeah, 'cause I'm a Registered Nurse who likes to torture herself by shoving more irrelevant stuff in her already full schedule, her inner voice responded.

She got at the Redgrave campus at ten thirty, half an hour late that is, and immediately made a beeline, coffee in hand, to the Dean's office.

She knocked twice.

Dean Felton: Come in.

Amy: Hello sir, I'm your ten o' clock. Sorry I'm late.

Dean Felton: It's OK honey, it's not like I have a school to run or anything.

Amy: Um...

Dean Felton: Ha ha ha! I'm just messing with you! Please, take a seat.

Amy sat down quietly.

Dean Felton: So, Miss F—

Amy: Please sir, call me Amy.

Dean Felton: OK then. Amy, have you decided on the classes you'll be taking?

Amy: Yes sir I have.

There was an awkward five second pause.

Dean Felton: Amy?

Amy: Yes?

Dean Felton: Care to name your classes?

Amy: Ah! Yes! Sorry sir, I'm still sleeping on the inside. So, that 'll be Filmmaking 101, Advanced Home Economics, and your Acting Workshop.

Dean Felton: Excellent choices! May I ask why these courses in particular?

Amy: Um, Filmmaking 'cause I love movies and I want to discover the inner workings of the craft, the Acting Workshop 'cause I haven't been in a drama club since High School -I was the Caterpillar in our production of Alice In Wonderland- and I remember it being fun like hell, and as for Home Economics, well, I guess I'm a bit of a slob and I'd love to learn how to be more organized house-wise. So, there you have it.

Dean Felton: Well, Amy, you picked a fine school! And I love your MO's by the way! Here's your schedule, classes start on Tuesday! Nice meeting you, have a great day, and I'll see you next week!

Amy took that to mean the end of their conversation, she got up waved goodbye and left. Apart from the class schedule, the paper she now held in her hands also had a Redgrave Community College watermark and the school's slogan on it: Welcome to Redgrave, you're already accepted!

This 'll be fun, Amy thought, making her way through the slippery parking lot, toward the battered 73' Oldsmobile Delta 88 that awaited patiently in the rain.

The next character finds herself in the Overlook Hotel foyer in the middle of the night. There's a man in the far side of the room. His face is covered in shadows. A fire-axe can be seen clenched in his right hand. He quietly starts walking toward said character. What do they do?

edited 21st Nov '12 5:13:24 PM by Basterd

Alice, Lucas, and Bert would all wrestle the ax out of his hands and knock him out/kill him.

Your character(s) have to make a dinner. What would they make?

I think Sano would make Flying Jacob.

Your character really really needs to do #2, every second counts. But (s)he finds a 15 feet anaconda in the bathroom. Now what?

Changed the question.

FYI, questions that refer to a specific work are generally discouraged.

Einstein *stabs with spear* HOW THE HELL DID THIS THING GET IN THE BATHROOM?! IS THIS HOW YOU TREAT SOMEONE WITH AMNESIA, WORLD?!

The next character swaps bodies with their crush. What would he/she do?

edited 22nd Nov '12 3:05:46 AM by danna45

Depending on the time frame of my story, it'll range from awkward to really awkward.

Cue freak out from Jonathan, while Cain takes it very stoically, somewhat amused that Jonathan has a crush on him.

Your character wakes up in a dark forest in the middle of nowhere. Very quickly they find out that they are in fact the main character of Limbo, trying to find their sister. And they only have one life.

edited 22nd Nov '12 4:18:35 AM by Tehpillowstar

Captain Kurtz would care very little for his sister. He avoids his upbringing at all costs, but would charge throughout the world, unexpectedly defying the odds to spite whoever had slighted his honor and enter guns akimbo, then quickly drop his sister off home.

Jonathan Swiftmouth has often lived as an accessory to others. In the world of indie platformers he is less the hero in limbo than the narrator from Bastion. In setting begrudgingly out on his own he might learn a valuable lesson on taking control and mail it to his superiors via his dragon assistant. Did I mention this is for a certain fanfic of the equestrian variety?

Your character wakes up to make a fresh brew of coffee and finds his mug full of worms. Any thoughts on this intrusion of their daily routine?

Anita: AUGH!!! -throws pot away, runs up stairs and hides in her bed until her father gets home-

Your character is riding the bus. The passenger sitting next to them is on the phone, talking about how to commit the perfect murder. How does your character react?

Lennik follows the passenger off the bus and commits the perfect murder. Provided he could be sure the passenger was guilty of something and not just speaking hypothetically.

Takon follows the passenger and gets all the information he needs to report the passenger to the proper authorities.

Your character is accidentally responsible for the deaths of thousands of people.

edited 24th Nov '12 3:13:43 PM by Lennik

Chief Sorgo, possessing a strong sense of honour and justice, takes it hard, but is quiet about his pain. Years later, some especially compassionate person may convince him to forgive himself, but until then, he suffers in silence.

Vaul Kizer, on the other hand, is embarrassed—thousands of people isn't nearly enough.

Your character thinks it would be funny to play a prank on someone. Somehow, the prank goes wrong and ends up with the target spending a few nights in the local jail. He/she could come forward to clear their name, but this would result in a much larger sentence for your character, and after all, it's only a few days... Do they own up?

edited 24th Nov '12 3:58:01 PM by Alma

Che: Depending on who the person is. If it's someone he likes, sure he'll own up, but if it's someone he hates, have fun rotting in jail! A character has to find a replacement for something they borrowed and lost. Do they do it?

June would build a new one entirely out of random crap, which somehow manages to be even better than the original.

Jillian would either a.) begrudgingly buy a new one just to get the other person out of their hair, or b.) tell them to piss off. However, if the item belonged to June or Jerrod (her boyfriend), she would more than willingly buy the replacement and apologize for losing it.

Your character is taking an art class. What form of art do they want to learn first?

edited 29th Nov '12 12:55:12 AM by Twentington

Patrick would want to learn oil painting. He'd never admit it to anyone, but he's always had a soft spot for late nineteenth century art, especially Monet and van Gogh.

Ian would want to learn to draw manga-style, since he's obsessed with the stuff and acts like he's the main character in a shounen manga anyway.

Your character inherits a submarine from a rich and eccentric uncle they didn't know they had. What do they do with it?

Harlan would stay the hell away from it. He's encountered enough beasties in the water for a lifetime, thank you very much. He'd probably sell it for parts—maybe keep it as a conversation piece. If anything, this supposed "uncle" would be the real surprise. It'd open the door to a whole new set of questions ...

As drowning is one of the few things that can kill Owain and it's not a fitting death for a hero, at the outset he will do all he can to seek higher ground within the system - stairs leading upwards, anything - figuring that at the very least an air pocket could sustain him until a more long-term plan can be formulated and put into effect.

Failing that, he would die bravely.

Your character's most-loved other person is dying of a disease that will kill, painfully, within 6 months. What does your character do?

Specter: What is this I am feeling? I am........unhappy with this. This is unavoidable, so why do I feel sad?

Your character has been forcefully implanted with cybernetics.

edited 3rd Dec '12 1:54:01 AM by LDragon2

Che: Who the hell did this to me? I bet it was Evita.."for your own good".

The character has a choice between a dangerous task or starving. Which one do they choose?

Both June and Jillian are Big Eaters, so the answer is obvious. Besides, the work is named "Confused Continuity", so if something harmful happened to them during the dangerous task, they'd be okay in the next strip and probably lampshade it.

Your character's best friend has been gender-flipped somehow. How do they react?
