ʌ < v GAME (IC)

I'm sad the old version of this thread disappeared, because it was one of my fav forum games :0

Anyway, for those unfamiliar, for this game, you post IC, and it goes something like this:



ʌ - [response to the question/statement/action/whatever from the OC above]

< - [related factoid about your OC]

v - [question/statement/action/whatever directed to the character below]


Rules

  • Make sure to keep your posts here SFW! And if in doubt, block it out.
  • Try to leave a little time between your posts (unless the thread gets bogged for a while) — I'll leave the exact numbers to ur best judgement for now but as long as you're not, like, responding to every 2nd person we should be fine
  • Claiming a spot is allowed, however, if someone claims a spot but doesn't fill it in 3hrs, the person below is allowed to skip them and just respond to the post above. We don't want this thread getting stuck :o

That's it! Have fun :v


The Puppeteer syzygyz_starfest

^ "OOH!! I love any rides that have a story or narrative with them, those are so cool! Like you know how fun it is to pretend to be a knight saving a distressed and helpless person by going up the twisty twirling coaster?! Oh oh and- and BUMPER CARS!"

-

< The Puppeteer enjoys creating his own form of entertainment as well! He's an avid theatre kid and you can find him in his own booths or such in theme parks

-

v "You! Yeah you! Wanna meet my friends? I can't really let you in my mind but I can project up the stories I make my friends live in!" 

🛹💣DAMIÁN💣🛹 DAMNFIEND

^ "Are they like imaginary friends or something? I don't really know how that can work. Especially if they aren't real..."

----

< Damian has a really good memory :)

----

v "I think I've lost a couple of my grenades. Can you help me find them? I've got a quest to do in a few minutes."

PADro honeyshuckle

^ "Hazard detected, downloading defusal upgrade, securing explosives for disposal, please stand clear."

< In a case of emergencies, PADro units can download premium information packs to keep users safe.

v "Hello new user, welcome to the estate, would you enjoy something prepared fresh from our kitchens?"

Maveric TrippySnakeBalls

^ He looks at the bot, mildly confused for a moment before nodding at it's question, "Yeah, sure. Got any salads?" He watches the devise, examining all of its features,"You seem much more advanced than most of the devices from this time," He mumbles, observing the tech.

< He, when he was still in his present, did extreme amounts of research on equipment and electronics from different time periods.

v He runs over to n/p, "Hey DONT TOUCH THAT!"

Kra OrcinusOrca

^ Kra seems to have her hands on something Maveric deems important. Mission failed. "WHAT?! I'm just borrowing it, like- forever!"

< When I used Kra in a campaign once, her nickname was "Kentucky Fried Kookaburra". "The Bird" was a popular one, too.

v "So, what's your favorite time of day and what do you like to do during said time of day?"

Webslinger littlered

^ They make sure Chris doesn't fall, ensuring he's stable before answering "All good! I should probably not be casually walking around down here but uh... Ran out of webs. You're a great singer!"

< Webslinger is awful at keeping track of their webs and runs out a lot, so they often find themself having to walk home- after a fight or otherwise.

v They swing up to the top of a building and have a seat, pulling their mask up to uncover their mouth to eat before their attention is caught by someone. "Oh! Hi! What are you doing here? Want half a sandwich?"

DAMIEN💥🌈🎱👁⚠️ DAMNFIEND

^ "I was just scoping out massive beasts from a distance. I heard its great for my hunter training! No worries. I've already got my food right here!" he pulls out a lollipop from his pocket and puts it into his mouth. "I got like 7 more lollipops so I'll be good this entire day! Or however long this hunt is gonna take."

----

< Damien's eyes constantly shift colors

----

v "Hey you wanna see a cool hand trick? It can make you forget every thing that happened in the past 5 minutes!"

vv "You sure?"

"Smiley" denishdraws

^^ "yeah like, uh..... ah..... talking raven"

^ "no need, I have seen better"

< an funny ah entity

v "ah......boring, boring, boring. show me something that can entertain me"

Airiel honeyshuckle

^ "Boy do I have a show for you! I'll show you a match the likes of which you've never seen!!"

< While one relevant takeaway is that they're a performer, they're very flighty and dense, and they often misunderstand what people are asking for most of the time.

v "Oh you look fabulous today sweetie, but how did you even get on the roof anyway?"

Xeno Cherenkov junebuggeryy

^ Startled, Xeno whips over to face Airiel and instantly snaps into a vogue pose, trying to distract her from the rising smoke cloud with a bright smile. "-Why thank you, kind citizen! You too, look like a patron of fabulousity! Do you perform? I bet you'd be a great performer-" The jetpack crash site bursts into flames behind xer.

< I never actually set out to make Xeno  ✨fabulous✨, I just threw a bunch of mismatched kitschy retro bits in a blender and violently shook until something popped out. I think people really took to xer outlandish confidence, though, and xe gets accused of being my fashion icon a lot (And also xe loves trespassing and winding up on people's roofs) 

v "-So don't panic! But my duplicator might be broken, annnd I think some of your stuff got contaminated. Butbut! Don't worry, it just means you'll-- Probably have double the stuff soon! Which- isn't so bad, right?"

Maribelle Burnett Vapor

^ - "Double the-- what?" Maribelle stared at Xeno blankly, as if trying to comprehend what the fuck xe was saying. But, it was simple. She was probably going to have double the stuff soon. "Xeno-- Doctor Cherenkov, what the fuck got contaminated?? Was it my food????? What did you do to my snacks??????"


< - she should be grateful. that's double the melon candy.


v - "..You know that facial cleanser I gave you the other day? I need it back. Right now. I just realized my nightshade droplets are all gone. If you got that in or around your eyes, though, you're probably going to go blind."

Gus BewareOfTheMenace

^ "Facial cleanser?" Gus don't know what that is for a moment, until he realized that she means one of those face cream wash thingy. "Oh, you mean face wash? Uh, yeah sure. I don't use it that and don't worry, my eyes are fine tho."

< Gus don't use that kind of stuff a lot.

v "So, what brings you in Marina del Rey, fella? Wanna ride some boats? Because this is a good time for sailing. Those sailboats have some decent price to rent so you can enjoy the view and all that."

DAMIEN💥🌈🎱👁⚠️ DAMNFIEND

^ "Oh I just came here for hunting purposes. Heard one of our deities turned into a kaiju and is wrecking havoc so I ended up here. I'm not here to relax, but thanks for the offer! A hunter is already taking me and the people I'm working with on his boat!"

< Damien has strange psychic powers that aren't fully developed yet

v "My eyes can see into the future and I predict that you will be soaked in water this week," Damien said as he holds a suspicious bucket in his hand.

Juniper honeyshuckle

DAMNFIEND ^ "I can predict the future too, if your posture dictates anything. Don't. You. Dare."

v "Does anyone have any foundation I can borrow? Just in case..."
