image has nothing to do with anything
Random scenario test drive meme! For all you thinking about apping to our fair game. Because all our characters are the modern reincarnates of the people we canon reviewed for, you need a modern AU! Post your character with a couple details about who they are now. Use a prompt to set the scene! And tag around.

RAIN: The weather sucks and you gotta share a bus stop, overhang, or other cozy space with someone.

MONSTERS IN THE PARK: Doesn't really matter what they are, it's time to run and/or fight!

NEW ECHO: augh you were minding your own business in public and now you have feathers for hair, or you just had a vivid flashback to being a wizard, or suddenly you have your preincarnation's clothes on. Someone help! Or point and laugh, that works too.

NORMAL DAY AT THE MALL OR WHEREVER: Slice of life happens too!

WILD CARD: You can't be contained by these paltry prompts! Get out there and combine them or make your own!

Marco Bodt/Marzio Bosco | Attack on Titan

a: the rain;

[There's really probably worse things that could have happened - like, say, it was snowing, or hailing, or something like that. Rain is pretty mild compared to some of the other weather, but that doesn't make him any less miserable and unwilling to leave the safety of the coffee shops awning. Which he should probably do soon, because it's not like there's a lot of space under there, and there's probably some poor soul who actually has an umbrella who wants to leave.

(If he had money to buy a coffee, he wouldn't care, but he's thirteen and broke and he really doesn't want to deal with any dirty looks from the workers just yet....)]

b: mall shenanigans;

[He's not big on shopping. He doesn't really get an allowance, and he's picky as hell. Still, malls are...about one of the best places to go when you're too young to do shit without your parents driving you around.

Speaking of parents, he's not sure where his mom has disappeared to. It's her fault that Marzio is at the mall in the first place. Something about one of his aunt's friend's having a baby so they had to get baby shower stuff or something? (He'd never understand why his mom obsessed over babies so much.) So, he's alone in the mall and he has nothing better to do than wonder around the mall and rifle through clothes racks, staring and judging clothes that are way overpriced for how flimsy they are.

He lives a difficult life, truly.]

d: text post;

I'm pretty sure I'm not supposed to have freckles. I didn't have freckles before.

Is this normal? Did someone draw them on me when I wasn't aware? Seriously, this is weird as hell.

[substitutable]

Probably drank some freckle juice.

Really tho people get weird shit like that all the time. Don't sweat it. Or maybe you just got sunburnt so bad you suddenly grew freckles who knows?

[onlyleft]

Stuff like freckle juice doesn't exist in reality.

And I don't remember getting sunburned!! I normally just...get tan? But I look like a ginger now.

But with brown hair.

[substitutable]

I'm getting flashbacks to guys that can heal after getting stabbed through the stomach by a tree branch who's to say things don't exist in reality anymore.

You can't look like a ginger if you're not redhaired it just means you're freckled.

[onlyleft]

Flashbacks don't necessarily mean that it's a legit memory, right?

Whatever, you got my point.

[substitutable]

It seems pretty legit when you and everyone else and their mom seems to be getting flashbacks.

[stagnantair]

Have you gotten a lot of sun, recently?

text like an obnoxious jerk;

[onlyleft]

I always get a lot of sun! But...I've always just gotten darker, not spotty! Do freckles develop with puberty or something?

[Is this a sign he's becoming a man now.]

[stagnantair]

[Gavin just laughs a little. He just Googled it, and sends over his findings.]

This website seems to think so.

[onlyleft]

[What.

No.

What is this??]

Oh my god, no. This is awful. This is nothing like my life or my experience.

[stagnantair]

So you don't...

[He's not above being a Lil Shit sometimes...]

Go on Mole Patrol?

[onlyleft]

I'm pretty sure asking me that could put you in jail.

[stagnantair]

[Ah, kids.]

I'm just using the terminology the doctor favors.

[onlyleft]

That doesn't make it any less creepy or weird to ask.

[stagnantair]

Fine, fine.

I was just wondering if you'd Echoed your... [He muffles a laugh,] Sun kisses.

[Jamie has been dragging out to the mall by his mother as well-- ugh socialization. Thankfully she always caves in and buys him some new manga he wants at the book store, thinking she's actually giving him valid reading materiel(HA.) Sitting on the floor of Macy's (what is he, seven years-old?) reading his new volume of magical girls before looking up to see another boy around his age.

...Between those freckles on his skin and that shitty mom-cut-my-hair haircut Jamie feels some terribly strong connection between him and this other unnamed boy. However, he is always painful crushingly shy of speaking to anyone out of the comfort zone, you could say he needs more confidence.] Umm... ahhhh I, um..

[Look at that great big horse-face of his, how could they not connect with one another just by those blatant features.]

[onlyleft]

[Excuse you his hair is amazing. Better than...whatever you have going for yourself, Jamie.

But whatever. He's just going to stare, eyebrows slowly making their way to his hairline. He can feel the awkwardness radiating off of the other boy, and it's almost enough to make him feel embarrassed for him. Almost, but he was raised to be mildly respectful, so even if he'd rather about face and leave him behind...He won't.

(Also, he feels like he has to talk to this kid, like...he's someone important to him or connected to him in some way. It's not a feeling he's particularly okay with, but he can't deny it.]

...Hi.

[What is he supposed to do. Or say.]

Do I...know you?

[honestopinion]

Umm... [Is this one of those echo things..?] M-My names... Jamie.. I got to ah- Locke Junior High.. [Eyes locking to the floor at some point in his conversation.

If he didn't know this kid though school than Jamie's pretty sure this is one of those echo things.. yeah. It has to be something like that, what's the name coming to mind? Maybe.. Coco or-- no, that's not a boys name.. (or at least, not a real boys name. Don't watch an anime called Boku.)]

[onlyleft]

[The Lord is testing him.]

Oh. Do we have any classes together?

[Why are you staring at the floor gdi you're just making this encounter more awkward than it needs to be.]

I'm Marzio, by the way. In case you didn't know.

[Is this how you make friends with people who aren't your neighbors. Will his mother be proud of him.]

[honestopinion]

I-I donno ah..

[Marzio..? No, he doesn't know that name.] We might.. hey, ah- do you know what the network is? [Jamie's talking about the super secret members only club, he can't help himself however this really does feel like one of those echo things.

-And yeah, congrats this conversation only gets more and more awkward. His sweaty palms are going to ruin his new manga.]

[onlyleft]

...Okay.

[Christ.] Do you mean the like...Bunch of numbers thing? [He's a wordsmith, truly, but he does know what Jamie means.

Sort of. Vaguely.

He has an idea, anyways.

It would probably be less awkward if it didn't feel like he knew this kid and like he was about to trip face first into an echo. It was kind of awful all around.]

[honestopinion]

Yeah! So you do know! That means..! That means I do know you!
[Finally facing the person he's making conversation with, a-m-a-z-i-n-g.] We must have known each other in our past lives.. when I, or my reincarnation-- whatever, was in the military!

[onlyleft]

[!!!]

The- the military? You mean, the 1-4th? [Those numbers have to have some significance, and it's not that string for the network or anything.] I don't think I, or he, or whatever, actually served. [He's pretty sure he didn't do anything amazing with his life. Oops.

But hey, at least Jamie is getting a smile now and not the "oh god what a weirdo get away from me" look.]

[wirsinddiejager]

thats way more normal than some of the other things people get here. you cant really talk about weird unless youre turning into a robot or something.

[onlyleft]

Turning into a robot would be cool ngl. Cooler than sudden freckles anyways.
