Jamjars give people opportunities to place their favorites into alternate scenarios of circumstantial bonding, alliance, animosity, teamwork and sexuality! Some encounters are innocuous and some epiphany-spurring, and whether you're interacting with a castmate or engaging in cross-canon CR, there are opportunities for creativity and exploration only made possible through this format. If you are fucking lazy or don't want to deal with activity-checks or want to do a miniature test drive, just meme it. Just... fucking meme it.---
I
✿1. Horror: Your characters are taken from their own worlds and thrown into a terrifying situation! Things are creepy, resources are scarce, and ensuring your own survival is paramount.
✿2. Sex Game: For whatever contrived and nonsensical reason, your characters are forced into a world where they gotta bone. Aside from smutstuff, you have the opportunity to play out how very awkward it is to navigate these agreements and encounters before and after. Lasting bonds can form from something you didn't expect! But so can eternal regret.
✿3. Slice of Life: Characters are forced to live together in familial units. They have an opportunity here -- in spite of being stuck -- to relax and slow down and do some fun, ordinary things. Picnics, dates, school, etc.
✿4. Fantasy: Characters are forced into guilds and roles, given weapons and are made to utilize their powers in coordinated units to complete missions.
✿5. Scifi: Characters are thrust on to the frontier of spacial colonization! Characters on a spaceship! Characters being drafted into an Imperial Earth Army to fight/conquer foreign entities! Characters being in a world where they are assessed, identified, tracked and policed by artificial intelligence! And so on!
✿6. Reincarnation/ New Identity: Your character has been reborn at this game, or given a new identity. Work out their karma or help them come to terms with having to live a new life.
✿7. Asylum/Prison/Institutionalized Identity: Characters are locked up and put under heavy surveillance. Slowly they are institutionalized and disintegrated from ordinary social rules of engagement. They could be told that they've been identified as mentally dysfunctional, or they could be in prison! Are they pleading their innocence, or do they know they're guilty as fuck back in their world?
✿8. Assignment-Based/Mercenary/Survival: Characters have to put their skills to good use as drafted mercenaries. Help your captors assassinate, spy, sabotage, infiltrate, steal, and terrorize for points that will lead up to your freedom or the freedom of others.
✿9. Your Choice!: Do whatever!---
II
✿1. First Impressions: You never forget your first impression of someone. Unless it was entirely forgettable.
✿2. Oh Hey Again: I kind of know you!!!! Hi!!! I hate this place but love familiarity hi!!!
✿3. Event: SOMETHING IS HAPPENING and your characters have either run into each other or sought each other out to stick together during it!
✿4. Living Quarters: Surprise, your characters are in the same house! Or room! Or building! Either way you have to share space and facilities with this person. Enjoy!
✿5. Mystery: Who Did It? Why Are We Here? Characters are disappearing, people are dying, whatever is happening it is FISHY!
✿6. Canon Update/Respawn/"But we know each other, I swear!": One character comes (back) to a game and does not remember previous CR. A relationship or friend or even hateship is forgotten. How will this be dealt with?
✿7. Begrudgingly Working Together: You are so fucking annoying but I guess we have to fight Monster of the Day Together/Get Unstuck-UnLost Together/Find Our Way Back/Help Each Other Out.
✿8. Is This a Date: Gee, you guys sure are doing a lot of things that people on dates do and you're having a lot of fun [sweats]...
✿9. Violence: Characters beat the shit out of each other or help each other out of a gory situation with terrible traumatic injuries or something!
✿10. One-Sided(?) Crush: How do you get their attention? Or, alternatively, how do you ignore that this person obviously is crushing on you and it's totally awkward
✿11. Protecting/Saving: Your character's chance to be a hero or a damsel!
✿12. Network Post: Mandatory bs.
✿13. Inbox: Hey, can I talk to you for a second? In private?
✿14. Your Choice!: Do whatever!
i cannot believe you
he literally has no idea what mike could be talking about because they don't have time to blaze it when their entire world has been blazed ]
A recreational plant? Like a flower?
[ yes, exactly ]
:')))))
wait
[ quickly checking his google brain to see if pot grows flowers.
> google
> "marijuana flower"
> wikipedia entry for cannabis
> Marijuana consists of the dried flowers and subtending leaves and stems of the female Cannabis plant.[60][61] This is the most widely consumed form, containing 3% to 20% THC,[62] with reports of up-to 33% THC.[63] In contrast, cannabis varieties used to produce industrial hemp contain less than 1% THC and are thus not valued for recreational use.[64]
shit, it does. how did he forget that? ]
nevermind, it does in fact flower. it's not really the safest flower though, i guess.
[ using the powers of a google brain for good! ]

Well what does it look like? Maybe I can help you find it. I'm not busy.
no subject
uh one sec
[ after a few minutes, there will be one file being sent to silver's communicator! ]
> sending file sortof.jpg
god wait that's fucking terrible. i am an awful, awful paint artist.
you know what, maybe this is a bad idea? let's just forget this ever happened. just ignore the man behind the curtain, please. he regrets most of his actions leading up to this. they were poorly thought out.
[ smart move, mike. smart move. ]
no subject
You're stopping just because you can't draw??
Wait a second, are you up to something? Is it poisonous??
no subject
BOOM logic. ]
it's not poisonous!! it's purely recreational and by using it, a person can be more relaxed. have you NOT noticed that we are all TRAPPED in an alternate universe with no way to get home? it's a pretty tense experience! the only thing is some people kind of [ uhh ] disapprove of using it but it's totally harmless.
no subject
Also this would be obviously a drug to literally anyone other than Silver at this point... may your hedgehog soul rest in peace, friend. ]
Oh yeah? If it's harmless why do people disapprove of it? You can't fool me!!
no subject
because people suck? it's not that hard to understand.
[ mike is... slowly picking up on the idea that he might not be talking to a human adult. he's also pretty sure he's talking to a girl. ]
no subject
Huh that's not true? Why would you say that? People are the only nice things we have here.
no subject
anyway, what is happening here. guess who is staring at his screen for a long moment before, ]
are you being facetious at me? because i swear to god if you're being facetious at me [ he, uh, probably deserves it, he thinks BUT WHATEVER ] well, i'm not going to very nice about it.
[ YEAAAH threatening ]
