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!

...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.]

[honestopinion]

W-was it that number? I didn't know the military had numbers and stuff. [Talk about canon blind, the number did seem familiar though..] I think he served, I remember he joined for some reason but I don't know why. I think it was for free college or something.

[onlyleft]

I think it was? And of course the military has numbers, that's how they keep things organized. [Don't you know anything.] I...don't know if college was a big concern for...whoever I was? It just doesn't feel like it was a big deal, going to school.

[honestopinion]

Yeah, school blows... to think he must have been a huge nerd or something. [UNLIKE JAMIE, YOU KNOW] ...Hey ah-- actually.. I think I do know you, like, not from just the network. Doesn't your mom sell that Avon stuff?

[onlyleft]

[Do you know how hard it is to not go "Seems like nothing's changed"? Do you?


Oh no. Jamie, we don't talk about Avon.] She does, yeah. [And it's super embarrassing to watch her try to sell to people sometimes.] Oh, God. Doesn't your mom sell that shit too?

[honestopinion]

Yeah.. I think they sell it together.. [His mother would kick his ass if he said 'shit' in public. He would over text or something she couldn't see but that woman could be right around the corner. Fear has struck this ones heart...]

Is she a really loud Italian lady..?

[onlyleft]

[Oh, poor Jamie. He's almost sympathetic, but. Nah.]

Loud is subjective. [Which is about as good as a yes as you'll get.]

[honestopinion]

[Ugh, this is that kid his mother keeps telling him about, how 'he's a little boy about Jamie's age' and 'they should be friends.' Gross, Jamie doesn't need friends unless they understand and appreciate the value of anime.]

Oh.. [Awkward as ever, switching his manga between sweat palms knowing it had to be getting warped in someway by now.]

So, ah, I guess that's what we have in common or something..
