TEST DRIVE MEME

I. A Mad Tea Party

You awaken to a new message from Zephyr at your bedside informing you that for today only, they're giving the Meadous a little makeover. That makeover would seem to be one that has transformed the Meadous into a Wonderland of sorts. There are sweets on the table that inform you to "eat me" and that will turn you small or increase your size, depending on what you eat. And down in that smaller world, there are all sorts of creatures, like talking flowers. There are also people much larger or much smaller than you now. Maybe you want to crouch down and say hello when you're bigger? Or shout a warning not to crush you while they're walking when you're smaller.

II. Be Careful What You Wish For

Well, that... that wasn't quite to plan. You stare down at the crayon drawing from Zephyr showing you exactly what you wished for. Except you hadn't meant it literally. Or you hadn't meant it quite like that, even if your wording had been vague. Now you're stuck with something you didn't want. Or perhaps you made a big mistake and now you're a different species. Or have extra appendages you can't get rid of. Not without making the walk of shame back to the Wishing Pond to wish away the changes. Why this? Why?

Hopefully, no one will catch you as you steal forth to undo your mistake.

III. Intrepid Explorers

You've found some fantastic ruins in the jungle and delved in (perhaps unwisely) on your own, only to find that these ruins contain not only treasure, but traps. You might find yourself swept up in a net and suddenly dangling from the ceiling. Or you might be on the receiving end of a poisoned dart that's making you hallucinate all sorts of creatures, friend and foe, alike. Or you might have even been smacked against a wall by a well-timed hammer and dazed.

It's not life-threatening, whatever situation you're in. But you might start hoping that someone else wanders into this place soon to help out.

IV. Bulletin Board

Each month, Zephyr clears away most of the notes from their Bulletin Board and adjusts the decorations, leaving it fresh and open for anyone who might wish to post something new. The Meadous is a fairly rural place with minimal technology. Those used to a network may find the Bulletin Board is the closest they can come to something like that again. Who wants to actually talk to the neighbors when you can post a passive aggressive note about someone making a racket at 2 AM, instead? There's also some measure of anonymity afforded. Just be sure to only post up your notes when no one else is around and can catch you at it.

V. Choose Your Own Adventure

Whether it's just waking up in the Meadous or exploring some other part of the Setting, you're striking out with your own prompts to get some action started.

[After watching a few other residents try the sweets and seeing that they aren't complete deathtraps (Renart has had capital-I-Issues with the Alice folk back home okay) she gets an incredibly brilliant idea.

'Brilliant' in this case meaning 'gluttonous', because after getting herself all set up with a couple of normal macarons she's eating one of the shrinking ones, then proceeding to start chowing down on one of the normal confectioneries. It's unlikely she'll manage even half of it but hey, why pass up the chance to eat a giant macaron?

She's a few bites in when she notices Steve, which has her pausing.]

I'm fairly sure I've seen you before on a war bonds poster.

[Her tail flicks back and forth. Said poster was at Bucky's place, so this is interesting. Very, very interesting is this is the same guy.]

[There's a small person nearby, happily attempting some kind of sweet that's bigger than her head. She doesn't appear to be human, or at least not entirely human.]

Ah. Steve Rogers.

[He offers a hand and a smile. It's his practiced, polite, "Captain America" smile, but there's genuine warmth behind it. He's met a lot of good people as Captain America.]

There's a war bonds poster with my face on it around here? This really is an unexpected place!

[ooc: or, y'know, I could READ THE GAME INFO and realise that it needs to be someone from a previous game! I'll find someone else lol, sorry]

((That's okay! Please don't get discouraged, definitely tag the tdm with another character. Also if you want to continue this one regardless I'm down for that!))
