CG for short
I don't get the reference but Imma assume it has something to do with things falling down on me.
On one hand, my reflexes and motor skills aren't particulary the best but on the other hand, I managed to duck in time to avoid getting hit in the head by an American football/basketballnote back in middle school, so it might depend.
...Got isekai'd into The Hunger Games and somehow got chosen to participate in the titular contest? Victor of HGS S320 | "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember."
Getting better at learning (He/Him)
I lack the amount of physical ability required for it, so I would probably die early.
... got stranded in the middle of the ocean? Currently Reading: N/A
Cynthia at the Beach
I would try to send a signal flare to call for help.
Found flying, air-breathing sharks swarming their lawn? "My swimsuit fits me well, right?" - Cynthia
Stark Holmes
Just stay inside, call the cops, and constantly jinx myself to go outside.
…woke up in bed, in the middle of a lake?
Discombobulate.
The Sly Snake at Day, A Gentle Bat at Night
I... can't swim, which leads to me attempting to use a bed to escape. How successful I am? Not at all, cue the drown.
Next troper becomes a Latias.
Destiny is not about following a path, it's about creating one as you go.
Knuckles the Echidna
I would try to hide from the wild as long as I can, without attempting to be caught by unpromising trainers.
...woke up with a mountain of millions of dollars in their bedroom?
One thing I have learned in pledging my life to this quest is that I have been betrayed again and again. And again. And again.
Aqua Hoshino
I would call up my bank to move about 80-90% of this to my account. How else am I supposed to get some space to sleep?
…woke up as a chair? "You gotta get better, you're all that I've got / Don't take forever, you're not here for long" - AJR, "2085"
Cynthia at the Beach
I'd freak out, if I could still scream.
...found a Pokemon in Real Life on their bed? "My swimsuit fits me well, right?" - Cynthia
This largely depends on which one it is. Hopefully it's one of the catlike Pokemon, or the Popplio line. Even a Goodra would be great, although I would have to wash my sheets due to its mucus.
What if TNP got to direct a new Pixar movie? I haven't played the particular game that Tango is from, but still... robo kitty. :D
I have little to no film making experience, so it'd be guaranteed to flop.
…. Had to work as an intern for the SCP Foundation for the summer? I want to go to Tonio's.
Knuckles the Echidna
I'd rather meet the most famous heads of the Foundation first before becoming SCP-999's new buddy.
...got an offer to study at Hogwarts?
One thing I have learned in pledging my life to this quest is that I have been betrayed again and again. And again. And again.
LCdr. SPARTAN-D421
Depends on if I can send someone else in my place.
If so, I'll send mom there to live out her dream.
If not... pass.
If you ended up on Family Feud, would you pull the Pork Cupine card?note

Heroes are remembered, but Spartans never die.
No. I'd like to think I would give good if conventional and boring answers, but there's a real possibility that I just say the most ludicrously incorrect things possible. I definitely wouldn't pull the Pork Cupine card though.
...Woke up one morning floating on a mattress in what appears to be the middle of the ocean?
Cynthia at the Beach
I would panic and then try to see if there was any islands nearby that were inhabited to call for help.
...woke up late around noon? "My swimsuit fits me well, right?" - Cynthia
Get cranky as I feel my tongue in my mouth, my eyes in their sockets and my skin over my forehead. Then I wouldn't drink water (the recommended course of action), and I would assess how energetic I felt before either lying awake doing nothing or lying awake scrolling for a moment. It would be a new thing for me since I usually wake up relatively early in the morning no matter when I fall asleep.
...encountered Will Wood at their residence? (He wants a handshake.)
The Sly Snake at Day, A Gentle Bat at Night
Well, I guess I'll handshake them, but wouldn't recognise them. Then have a friendly chat about non-musical stuff.
Next Troper becomes a villain of MLP:FIM
![[down]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/smiles/arrow_down.png "[down]"){kind=icon}
(It's actually becoming a villain of this world.)

Destiny is not about following a path, it's about creating one as you go.I haven't watched this show, but TBH, I would jump at the chance to be a villain in a kid's cartoon. I would love to bring some Laughably Evil, Cartoonish Supervillainy energy, although it would be nice if I could eventually make a Heel–Face Turn.
(Are we saying that I would be voice acting this character, or that I would actually be transported to the cartoon world and become them? I'm not confident in my acting skills, but I think I would at least try.)
What if TNP had to go through some sort of transformation, but they could choose any trope in the "Tropes related to transformations as an event" folder on Shapeshifting? I haven't played the particular game that Tango is from, but still... robo kitty. :D
Aqua Hoshino
I'd choose Becoming the Costume. Fortunately my costumes would be humans, some with cool abilities.
…woke up as a giant cockroach?

Knuckles the Echidna
...well maybe Kafka was right after all.
What if TNP suddenly had the ability to speak different languages fluently at once?

First thing I'd do? Make sure it's safe, and it actually works. Second thing? Set up a nonprofit to give this gift to everyone who needs it.
...found themselves summoned as the USS Iowa in KanColle?
Heroes are remembered, but Spartans never die.
Rainbow Six: Siege (2015)
holy shit i'm a woman now You know how people sometimes portray Iowa as secretly a nerd
? It's gonna be like that, but not even hidden behind a peppy persona.
