Test Drive 1

Welcome to the beta test of BadgerNet, Multiversal Edition! Settle in and enjoy your posting experiences. Everything in this will be non-canon.

Here're some example prompts to play around with. You can make up your own!

1. An embarrassing moment of yours just got posted to the site. Oops!
2. Post your proudest moment to the site.
3. Hiccup Event: Vampires. Everyone affected is a vampire, your choice of what style of vampire.
4. Hiccup Event: Disney Princess. Animals just won't leave you alone!
5. Hiccup Event: Actor. You believe you're an actor playing the role of yourself as a character and you have the props and everything to prove it. Chill offstage and all that.

Intro

Mom? Is this you? Your dot just showed up again!

Advice

So my brother's friend just bought me a bike? It's actually really nice and I like it, but now my brother is teasing me because that money could have gone to a good cause. I know he's right...but it's a gift! It feels different! Don't you get it?

[britbrat]

I tend to believe that most money spent could go to a better cause, that cause being my pockets. However, if you wish to make up for this misspending, I'll gladly take the bicycle off your hands.

[ valmont you can't even ride a bike... ]

[ Option A: Text ]

[ The following is scrawled in surprisingly neat handwriting, as opposed to normal computer text. ]

Respond to this if you're not originally from the world of Iden. And tell me your location.

This is a survey. Completely harmless.


[ Option B: Video ]

[ This time, there's a tired looking catgirl with a giant facial scar looking curiously at the... camera? She takes a moment to brush her bangs aside... pick some food out of her teeth? ]

Why does a book need a mirror like this, anyway? This is obviously Invader stuff... are they just that vain?

Of course they are. Why am I even asking? ...And why am I talking to myself, anyway?

[ Evidently, her version of the Badgernet shows up as a magic book.... and there's a mirror inside used for the video function.

She has not realized that latter point yet. Oops. ]

Well, my original world was the 435th layer of the Abyss, but then there was Arkadia. I can be at any major city on the mainland in an hour or so.

Why do you ask?

intro

[shslliar]

But I am in Iden. Why are you sending this survey to fellow Idenites?

[ Kokichi is definitely not from this Iden place, fyi. ]

[lightnovelexperiences]

currently along the Rosy Road just outside of Viacruz getting shot at by an idiot who thinks playerkilling and highway robbery is a great idea after an entire server gets isekai'd

none of the playerbase knows if we rez at a church after dying yet

please advise

A

[sassafrisk]

yeah i got isekai'd

Suppose a god* has decided that killing you is vital to the continued survival of the planet**. It's a beefy one, with its own order of loyal paladins and everything. Supposing I'm too weak to win a fight against anything stronger than a twelve-year-old, what's my next move?

* Not actually a god, just a free-floating millennia-old AI with a god complex. Functionally pretty similar, though.

** Not actually true, I just know a bit more than it wants me to about where it came from.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... I'd suggest mastering a Hoplon Blastia and fast, if those existed on your world.

As is... Uh, you need some sort of power I think, but I'm not sure what???

[axmeowder]

[ The following seems more hand-written than computer text. ]

I don't know what an AI is. But if it's not actually a god it can be murdered.
If you're too weak to kill it get some strong friends.

[alchemascot]

Don't be so hard on yourself! I'm sure you could win a fight against a twelve-year-old!




But please don't test that empirically! I'm sure you wouldn't but just in case please don't fight a twelve-year-old.

[sassafrisk]

HM this is a toughie. this is kind of a gamble, but there should be at least someone in the order of a paladins that figures that this is a bit, uh, morally dubious

if any diegetic bishie sparkles don't point you in the right direction i'd suggest just watching, waiting, and once you've id'd a good candidate get your disguise game going and cozy up to them until you've earned their trust and can reveal yourself to them

if the god has em brainwashed or something you might be kinda screwed? speaking as a former twelve year-old in a world of monsters monumentally stronger than i was and who basically all wanted me dead for slightly more valid reasons than the one you listed here, try to find just like. regular friends. that's all i can offer i'm sorry

two truths and a lie isekai shenanigans edition
1. "are you there, god? it's me, frisk" happened to me except she decided to be all tsundere about it and blew me up instead
2. i have legit lost track of how many times i've looped time
3. i once stacked so many buffs i broke the class system and had to redo my build from scratch

also uh just making sure since since seeing so many worlds that didn't give vaikuntha heroes is MEGA WEIRD have any of y'all seen like. weird purple stuff in the sky? or a weird amount of monsters? just checking to make sure some Bad Shit isn't going down nbd

[un: ramshackled]

[areyuuserious]

Ooh ooh, this sounds like fun

Hmm... I feel like 2 or 3 would be the lie and I can't decide which one so I'm gonna flip a coin with it...

Heads, so 2, so sayeth the coin flip gods

Also no purple stuff in the sky that I've seen, not sure how many monsters would make for a weird amount here

[twoasone]

[ ... Hang on, he needs to go check. ]

Number 3, and no I don't see anything wrong with the sky...

What sort of monsters are you talking about, anyway? They don't happen to be nocturnal shadowy creatures with glowing blue eyes, do they?

Yuu (MC) | Twisted Wonderland

[areyuuserious]

The last couple of days have felt like a wholeass week unto themselves.

So here I am, minding my own business, I blink, and I wake up in a COFFIN. And there's a weird fire-breathing cat thing

So I learn I've been brought BY MISTAKE to another world's magic school for dudes! There are two problems with this: I do not have a single drop of magic in me and I am very much not a dude. Headmaster says he's gonna get me home but I'unno, he seems kinda flaky?

So I'm stuck here in a run-down, ghost-filled dorm that I don't think has been used for, like, a decade. I am STILL sneezing out dust from the initial deep-clean and also I'm now apparently in charge of the egomaniac fire-breathing cat???? Plus basically being a gofer...

I keep getting caught up in trouble, too... the cat keeps causing scenes and trying to escape punishment... Someone who was trying to help me catch him threw another kid into a chandelier and broke it! And we were all going to get thrown out unless we got another magic crystal to replace it.

Which, of course, required going to a dangerous mine. There was a monster, don't wanna talk about it

Long story slightly less long, the cat and I are now counted together as a proper student. Yaaaaaay.

People keep looking down on me AND I've been feeling like deadweight. This sucks >:(

... So! How have your weeks been?

[simplythehero]

Less eventful. Killed two demon kings. Negotiated peace between another and humans. Pretty routine for me. Not most people, but for me, yes.

Sorry not of much help. Less experience with your situation. Can give fighting tips at least.

[superstylishsquid]

It's had its ups and downs. Not quite that exciting, though...which is saying something, considering where I am.

Princess Camiel | OC

[antisekai]

[The post is written in very nice penmanship, in a fancy cursive. Obviously handwritten instead of computer-generated.]

Good day, and I hope this missive finds you well.

I am Princess Camiel, heir apparent to the throne of Sengeis, founder and commander of the Invader Defense Force, Thane of Kiladdak-ah-Hahdax, voice of the gods, and protector of the elementals. I am writing in my official capacity in these titles, so that I may impress the importance of my words upon you.

I and my people seek to remove the influence of other worlds from our own, as their one-sided invasion is no less than an act of war, an attempt to erode at Sengeis' own laws and rules. As such, I request the immediate removal of your activities from the world of Iden. Failure to comply will be taken as an act of hostility against this world, and be met with appropriate countermeasures.

I thank you for your time, and urge you to consider what your best course of action is, Badger Net.

[un: notanisekai]

[sassafrisk]

i

hm.

uh, what, exactly, do you mean, by, "appropriate countermeasures,"

[axmeowder]

Great declaration.
Naturally you may use my axe to enforce it.

[nijistaryume]

awww so we have to stop trying to use it to spy on other worlds in case ppl come here? '-'
(hi!!!!!)

...As she lured him on, Miwa wished it would never end. But of course it had to end. She was, after all, the queen of the demons, and he was on the side of those magical girls. All of this-the beach, the brisk cool air of the oncoming autumn, was but an illusion, just like her. She would cast off her human appearance-and meet this boy in battle again. Part of her thrilled at the deception, but the rest of her....

Hmmmm. Should I go crude and talk about how much she wants this guy carnally, or keep it a bit flowery? She's not gonna act on it, but she is a demon so...

[ Mir is writing a romance novel. The main character is an expy of herself. ]

3.
...Okay, now it's nice to not be in a stasis cell. But can someone come and take this stake out of my heart?

6.
Is this-ah yes it is. Hello Badgernet, this is Mir, and I'm about to wrap up things here on Ar Tonelico. If you don't recognize the face, I'm bodyjacking right now, which is why I'm currently wearing Shurelia. Thank goodness she keeps her armor on all the time, it'll make this fight against these 'heroes' easier. As if such an accursed species could ever do anything heroic.

[ Mir is about to do the first 'ending' of Ar Tonelico ]

[simplythehero]

Clarify the situation. Why are you fighting 'heroes'? What kind of accursed species.

Video 1: Tell her I said hi.
[ The man in the green creeper hoodie seemed triumphant at first, but the smile kind of falters as he reads the url of the website. ]

"Badgernet Multiversal?" Huh, this must be that website Surolam keeps checking on...

[ You might notice a familiar white emptiness outside this man's window... If you're not distracted by the mess of steampunk gizmos and more modern computer parts scattered about the room. The man smiles again in greeting. ]

Hello, everyone. This is Luca, reporting from a currently unnamed virtual universe. Please excuse the mess. I've been trying to get a connection to other worlds myself, but... Seems my lover beat me to it. Ah heh.

So! How is everything on your side of the screen?

Video 2: Virtual Princess.
[ It's Luca again, filming from what constitutes as outside and fumbling with the camera... Because, um. He's surrounded by a menagerie of creatures. Mainly birds, mice, crabs, and one chocobo.

Some of the smaller animals are crawling on him and digging their claws into his clothes. ]

Ow! [ He picks up a rat and puts it down. ] Ah, how do we contact Badgernet's maitnence team? I... Think we found a bug-- ACK!

[ And then a chibi lizard man dives in from out of nowhere and knocks Luca to the ground. ]

Ow... [ He'll be fine. ]

Video 2 / Action

[ordinarythings]

Luca! Are you alright? [Surolam has to chuckle a bit nonetheless. She can tell he's fine, so she's not too worried there. Nonetheless, she takes a moment to shift into dragon form and lift the lizard man by the collar of his suit.] And who is this little one?
