Remember how I went on a trip the other week? Well, I had a lot of time on my hands on the plane and at the airport, and I ended up writing a C&C story on the way. It's from an NPC cop's point of view, and I decided I ought to share it with the community.

It's called Beat )

Katurian's tears got me wondering: it has now been over three years since the Porter was activated, and that time has not been a lot of fun for a lot of people in the Cityverse. Reality-warping, being trapped in their worst nightmares, supervillain murders, cities being destroyed, wars over Porter technology- the people of this Earth have had to put up with a lot.

How many NPC lives have been ruined by Import-related shenanigans? How many have your characters negatively impacted somehow?

The focus here is on innocents more than jailed criminals. I'm curious to see if we can get a rough estimate by just throwing in examples of game events and character impacts on the hapless NPCs around them. Example:

-The game started shortly after the (still unexplained?) disappearance of the original police force, half of which later came back zombified. That's maybe thirty thousand gone right there.
-Jack Bauer has killed 41 people during his time in the Cityverse, but four of those occupy a grey area due to being undead, and one of them was an Import who came back. Also they've all been bad guys!
-The Major caused 114 deaths in Operation Gotterdammerung, and has gotten well over a hundred of his own minions killed in his various schemes. The raid on the HIVE caused a large amount of death and destruction, and the people he has turned into vampires are technically dead as well. The watchman killed in the blood bank raid is on his head also.

This is not a meme or an effort to establish firm game canon, just a bit of curiosity seeking to quantify Katurian's sorrow. Answer as much or as little as you like, and let's see what we come up with!

the "I'M SORRY" meme


HOW IT GOES
☁ you post with your characters.
☁ other people tag your characters' threads with their characters, apologizing to your characters for something.
☁ the apologies can be dramatic and serious or silly and amusing.
☁ they can even be passive-aggressive fauxpologies. Those are the best.
☁ go around having your characters apologize to other people's characters, too!
☁ if it devolves into violence, that's okay. You can just apologize for that, too.

the
ACTUALLY IT'S MONDAY FACE-SUCKING

meme
 

Comment with your character(s).

Other people comment IC, OOC, or Anon, to your character, telling them who to make out with. Younger characters get to go on dates or dance or something idk.

If it's too creepy or cracked out, you obviously don't have to do it. Unless you're Leah

You can never be late. Anyone who says so will be internet-punched by me. Don't worry. It's a punch of love.

• Elle made me upload Edward Cullen icons so I get the meme for tonight.

the ❝ I ☆ WISH ❞ meme



★ Post with your character. Do not have them wish.
★ Respond to other peoples' characters with your own. At any point during the conversation, they must make a wish pertaining to that character, such as "I wish you would kiss me", or "I wish you would dance naked".
★ The magic words are 'I wish'. As soon as those words are spoken, it will happen, whether the person wishes it or not

Hey C&C I'm bored.

Tell me what a typical day in the life of your characters is like. You know, when there's not the threat of zombies, vampires, zombie vampires, Godzillas, or the HIVE hanging over their heads.

No, really, I want to know! I love reading the not-memes and finding out what people have thought up for their characters. DO IT. DO IT NOW.

Also anybody wanna get in chat? I am so seriously bored you have no idea.

WAR.

Now, I have NO idea how this plot is going to turn out or anything, but I'm curious. How would your character(s) fare in a war with the HIVE? I want to know what scenarios you envision them in, how they would fight or not fight, how they might use their powers, who they would work with. Of course, a lot of this depends on information we don't have, like how they're going to attack and what they're going to attack with, but go wild — come up with whatever situations you like and describe how you see your character(s) reacting. It's about the drama! Would they sacrifice themselves to save others? Would they fuck off to Aruba? Would they take care of people and evacuate them or heal them? Would they try to help organize?

It's just for fun, but you may find use for some of these ideas in the future!

FIVE (SHORT-ISH) THINGS YOUR CHARACTER DOES IN THE CITY

So basically just write five story things on five things your character does around the city. I'd say drabble, but I'm sortakinda horrible at staying under a certain amount of words so it's basically as long as you want. Mention as many other C&C characters as you can for extra warm and fuzzies on everybody's side. Maybe slightly less warm and fuzzies if attempted murder is included, but fffff. And before I forget, comment on other people's mutated drabble monsters to perpetuate warm and fuzzies.

If you need an example!

what would happen if...?
► post your characters
► comment to others by saying "what would happen if...?"
► i.e. Tony asks Norman "what would happen if I took a shit on your desk?"
► bonus points for acting scenario out in comments

So I hate the word "drabbles" but whatever, guess what, it's writing time!

Five (Short) Things Your Character Does In The City

Try to mention as many other C&C characters as you can. I failed at that (also appearing: Danny, Ivy, Starfire, & Suzi [don't kill me!]) but I'll try again. Jason isn't very sociable anyway. What are your characters doing to prepare for Christmas? New Year's? Chinese New Year's? Why are they doing certain things they're doing? What does Schrodinger want for Christmas? Why the hell is Jason stalking you? Answer these burning questions and more!

RETURN OF THE LETTER MEME

♥: Comment with your character name
♥: Reply to said character name with a letter addressed to the character-- can be anon or not. Love letter, lust letter, bromance letter, SEKRIT CREEPY CRUSH LETTER, reminder to your girlfriend to pick her underwear off of your ceiling fan-- it's all good AS LONG AS IT'S NOT TOO MEAN (meaning, KEEP IT IC AND NOT OOC STUFF, 'KAY?). We need more love in this world~
♥: No profit. :|


I figured since we have a TON of new characters and it last got posted in October-- letter meme 8D

In an attempt to help you all better understand yourselves, I've created a device that will reverse your entire being, making you a representation of everything you never were. You'll spend the next little while as the opposite of what you are now, in personality, mentality, and worldview.

In short, you'll be a reversal of yourself, opposite in every way that counts. A mirror image, if you will.

There may have been a few... Problems with the machine, since I was working from the Porter schematics, so your memories might be a bit muddled. It's so hard to keep track of which backstory is the real one when there are so many fighting it out in your otherwise empty skulls, isn't it?

This should be enlightening for all of us, shouldn't it? And I'm not even charging you this time.

[BASCIALLY, your character is from bizarro world, and will run around this post acting accordingly. Make a post for others to respond to and then dash about talking to others. It's the Open RP post from hell. Trolls/Spammers/Potential canon characters welcome, if you're so inclined. Also? Despite the fact that nobody is unaffected, your character's memories of the others remain intact, so the friends and enemies that they expect are not the ones they will find here. Now go nuts.]
