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!

[Once she was a decent distance away from the vermini, he glances Angeline over to make sure she wasn't harmed.]

You're not hurt, are you?

[His attention is pulled away by the sound of a shopping cart coming down the aisle and witnesses several of the critters being crushed by the wheels. Well, that was kind of disappointing since he was expecting some sort of guts to expel from these things -- wait, why was he disappointed about that thought? That made no sense! There was more pressing matters to attend to! Like explaining what those things are and why they didn't die like any normal thing should!]

[sugarslice]

No, I'm-- I'm fine.

[ NOT FINE. Certainly unharmed, but definitely nerve-rattled.

She's still staring at where the vermini had been squished into vapor and the rest had, apparently, climbed into the meat... case...

Contamination... ]

Should we... tell the manager...? [ Of course, right? She feels dumb for asking.

She hasn't the slightest idea that those were paranormal creatures to keep mum about. ]

[dominateartimus]

That's good to hear.

[There's a small nod from him, before he pauses at the mention of speaking to the manager.]

I think it would be for the best. We don't want anyone to get sick from a vermin infestation. You can go get the manager, I'll try to get rid of a few more.

[With that, he'll move to put back the things he grabbed and turn his attention to the other vermini.]

[sugarslice]

[ Nodding eagerly (because this is a great excuse to get away from the scene of the what-the-fuck and gather her wits), Angeline starts off. Unfortunately, she makes the mistake of looking down into the meat case.

SWIMMING WITH BLACK FUZZ.

She jerkily turns back at Xander, pointing into the meat case with the most grossed out, open-mouthed grimace on her face. ]

[dominateartimus]

[He was watching Angeline to make sure she gets away safely, but at the sudden gesture of being grossed out, he chuckles slightly. That wasn't suppose to be amusing.]

I see them. Don't worry, they won't get away.

[With that, he moves towards the case of meat. He could easily burn these things with his flame, but doing so would cause himself some pain.]

[sugarslice]

[ They scuttle this way and that, like they can't decide if they want to go right, left, or up in an attempt to get away from Xander's attention. ]

How are you going to catch them...?

[ Maybe she could, gee, offer to help? Like a helpful person would? ]

I can, um, get a basket...

[dominateartimus]

I'll try to set up a trap for them.

[He kneels down in front of the case, noticing their fleeing behavior.

Then again, he's not sure if they would bite through a woven basket. He'll take his chances with a metal bucket or a plastic container.]

...A metal bucket or a plastic container would work better. If you could get one or the other, I would greatly appreciate it.

[sugarslice]

[ For a moment, she's rooted to the spot.

Where the heck would she find a metal container? No, no, plastic bucket. Janitor's closet.

She keeps herself from making a face. ]

Okay. I'll... be right back.

[ Off she goes to fetch said bucket and possibly another coworker, longer than life ponytail swaying behind her.

God bless employee discount. ]

[dominateartimus]

I'll be right here, waiting for your return.

[He states without looking at her as she leaves. His attention was focused on the vermini inside of the case. He considers his options of rallying them in to the container with the food in the case and fire -- since his lighter was with his things in the back-room of the bakery. There was a possibility that they would get charged with having to cover the spoiled meat, but he would have to make it up to Angeline for helping him out.]
