Prompt 1: Amnesia

[ You woke up, all your memories having vacated you. Well, that sucks. But hey, no time like the present to go out and figure out things. Maybe someone in your smartphone contacts knows you or what's going on. You open up your smartphone's lock screen and-- hey, that looks relevant. Profile pages! It has your unit name, member names, but no pictures. . .

Well, the rest varies. This one says Likes: Industrial Strength cleaning products, Breakbeat hardcore, Volleyball shorts and Dislikes: Roombas, Electro-industrial, Maid Outfits. The next has a thrilling tale that concludes with the idol mud-wrestling God, though it doesn't mention if they won or not. The third says that the member became an idol because they want to use the television and media attention to get the notice of their long lost sister, and reunite their family. The fourth just has someone's three sizes. The fifth has a detailed astrological profile.

Since no one remembers their names and there's no pictures to match it to, this is actually less helpful than you hoped. And furthermore, the doors aren't opening until you and the rest of the amnesiacs on this unit tell it who is who. Looks like you and the rest of these people have to discuss which of you is more likely to have mud-wrestled god, and who joined because they really want to find their long-lost sister. Or you can just use the tape-measure that was left sitting on the main table of the center room, that might be a quick way to settle at least one of these things. ]

Prompt 2: Memory Regain
[ You saved up your points, performing in Games or Lives or Vids, something or other until you had enough points to put the order in.

You didn't really know how to expect a memory to look like, but as it turns out there's just an alert on your app. Once you click it, a playback starts-- on the screen, and in your mind. You remember something now.

However, in buying the cheap version, that just broadcasted to several other people's phones in the area as well as all screens in the area. Cool. That was definitely what you were trying to do. ]

Prompt 3: Game Time
[ Welcome to the Game Tower. Today's game is a sort of mad fake phantom thief free-for-all. You arrived, were given top hats and cloaks, and the inside floor of the tower had been remodeled to resemble an art museum, with a giant roulette wheel right by the elevator you exited. Below that was a little slot, where today's hologram host explained the wheel would spit out a slip with a goal just for you.

So you have a little slip of paper with a goal on it, and no way of knowing what anyone else's goals are, though you did see the big roulette wheel being spun at the beginning letting you know the some of the possibilities:
♚Steal a heart
♚Steal a life
♚Steal an object
♚Steal a kiss
♚Steal someone's clothes
♚Steal someone's shoes
♚Steal a secret
♚Steal the giant statue from the center of the museum
♚Steal the portrait that depicts your true love

...well, waiting around isn't going to get you any points. Get to it, temporary phantom thief! ]

Prompts 4: Fanmail
[ Today, trying to take the elevators up from the lobby to access the apartments you and the other units live in just isn't working. Upon the doors being pried open, you found out why quickly: the elevator shaft was jammed up with fan mail, so it couldn't properly descend. Letters cascades out from between the open doors: letters from people who watch you play games, do lives, make vids, and probably all sorts of other things on those omnipresent cameras.

Are you really going to read these? Though right at your feet, a few have spilled from their envelopes. Now you can't help but read those. Here's one in purple glitter pen that says, jesus just come into my home and strangle me with your hair and one that is written with newspaper cut out letters (alarmingly reminiscent of a calling card written by a serial killer) that reads incongruently hello my soft best child ur good and valid and I love you forever plz be ok don't listen 2 the haterz u have done nothing wrong. Oh, and here's one asking if you can wear tighter pants for your next live, they want a better shot of your ass for their shrine. This one just says MARRIED?

Well, it's just as well you have no idea who those were for. Most this fanmail isn't for you. Except for the few that you just read, they're all labeled in envelopes for different people from all the units. Time to read other people's fanmail. Or try and find them and deliver the fanmail. Or just start a big fire in the middle of the lobby, you could do that too. ]

I don't think I've seen him yet.

[He hums thoughtfully...

Pictures continuing to be out of reach. But it's almost like he's completely forgotten that he's just kinda holding them up in the air now.

liarliarliar: (Mental ping.)

[SHRINKING THEM SO THEY'RE LESS VISIBLE]

You'll surely meet him eventually. Though he's a shy boy.

Unlike you, a rude boy.
bondsofsuffering: ([Surprise] you find amusing)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-10-30 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Huh? I'm not that rude!

[But then the pictures shrink and aaaaaah-]

Hey, what happened?!
bondsofsuffering: ([Hmph] supposed to make)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-10-30 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
That's so unfair!

[But he does lower his hand now, squinting at the now-smaller photos.]

How are you supposed to dangle these in front of your boyfriend if he can't even see them...?
liarliarliar: (One of us has to be educated okay.)

[personal profile] liarliarliar 2019-10-30 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
I can dangle myself.
bondsofsuffering: ([Question] to swim in)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-10-30 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
So you guys aren't really the types to keep sentimental pictures of each other?

[Sentimental lewds...]
liarliarliar: (Mental ping.)

[personal profile] liarliarliar 2019-10-30 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
I mean I'm going to take those too.
bondsofsuffering: ([Heh] misstep to fall)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-10-30 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
[He just shrugs with a smile, lowering them enough so Kano can take them.]

liarliarliar: (And I will turn off.)

[personal profile] liarliarliar 2019-10-30 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yoink!]

Thanks, new child.
bondsofsuffering: ([Heh] Yet why does the)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-10-30 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Since I'm the new kid around here, it's even more important for me to know what to expect in the future, right?

[It's a little late to use that excuse, though.]
liarliarliar: (Yah we're going to fight the sun.)

[personal profile] liarliarliar 2019-10-30 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
The future is lewds and murder and then murdery lewds.
bondsofsuffering: ([Hmph] supposed to make)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-10-31 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Record scratch.]

Murder and murdery lewds?
liarliarliar: (Wow.  Just wow.)

[personal profile] liarliarliar 2019-10-31 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Did people tell you nothing....
bondsofsuffering: ([Question] to swim in)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-11-01 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I've pretty much been surrounded by other newbies since I got here.

[Nope.]
liarliarliar: (Aw geez here we go again.)

[personal profile] liarliarliar 2019-11-01 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh no. Oh dear.

Uh yeah the games the people in charge make us play are quite bad. Although injuries are healed and deaths undone.

Still you know. Hurts.
bondsofsuffering: ([Surprise] all the answеrs)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2019-11-02 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
[......?

???

???????????
]

What do you mean "undone?"

[How????]
liarliarliar: (Yah we're going to fight the sun.)

[personal profile] liarliarliar 2019-11-02 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Magic nonsense.
