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.
6. You're livestreaming a dramatic moment in your life.
7. Asking the people on the site for advice on something.

And so on. Be sure to read the rules and FAQ before posting.

Just the way you took it out, but in reverse, of course! It's really quite simple. If you're worried about lining things up properly you could always ask a friend or your local mortician for help.

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't really have either of those...
hemlockgarden: Morticia looking just above the viewer, expression sad and surprised. (Oh no sad)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Now that simply won't do at all, everyone needs a good mortician! You should check the phone book, or I suppose whatever is similar in your world, and find a reputable one!

And as for friends, nonsense! How can a handsome litch like yourself not have any friends? You must come over for dinner. Would a seance summon you?
accidentallich: (with a little prayer)

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 03:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know if it would, no one's tried that I know of - but I would love to come over. If it's not too much of a bother.
hemlockgarden: Morticia looking camera left happily, hands raised as if about to clap in joy. (How delightful)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Wonderful! I'll get Grandmama to get everything together! Do you remember your name, darling? That always makes summoning much easier for everyone involved.
accidentallich: (you gave me everything)

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I changed it a long time ago - too many bad memories. Do you need my birth name, or is what I go by now fine?
hemlockgarden: Morticia looking uncertain. (Uncertain)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
You know, I'm really not sure! Let's start with your name now, darling, and if that doesn't work we can try the other. I think it all depends on how long you've been who you are now compared to who you were then, but I'm hardly a master of the dark arts.

Gershom Alter. I haven't used my birth name since I was in the caliphate of Cordoba.

[So about a thousand years ago.]
hemlockgarden: Morticia looking amused, smiling camera left with her hand held under her chin. (Default)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
So charmed to meet you, Mr Alter, and caliphate - that sounds important!

I'm Mrs. Addams. You might find you feel an odd pull, that would be the summoning. It's quite safe, so don't panic. It always makes quite a mess if we get a panicking spirit unused to travel.


[[It has been literal years since I've done this, how would you like to proceed?]]

It's nice to mee;/gahkgiajf;

[Sorry, he was definitely not prepared for the summoning, and when he poofs into existence in the Addams family home his first instinct is to cower.]
hemlockgarden: Morticia standing, looking camera right, hands raised as if she's gesturing. (hands up Happy)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
It worked! Oh, how delightful! [[Morticia stands at the edge of the summoning circle which is lit with candles. The Addams Family Home is a museum of oddities in all shapes and sizes.]]

Now now, no need to cower, Mr Alter! You're very welcome here, we just have to go through a few rules before I let you out of the circle.
accidentallich: (you gave me everything)

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
O-okay...

[This is a lich who hasn't been out of his apartment in a decade and is not used to in-person contact. It's a miracle he didn't flinch at her voice.

Also he's wearing cat-patterned pajamas.]


Sorry. I guess I'm easily spooked.
hemlockgarden: Morticia stands with her arms crossed, looking displeased. (annoyed Arms crossed)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It's quite all right! Now let's see, no possessing anyone after nine pm, the children have very strict bedtimes and possession always riles them up. Please don't eat any of the family ghosts, not even if they ask you to, and when you want to go home you just let me know and we'll send you off.

[[Morticia is quite serious in her words, even if she's still smiling and pouring on the charm.]

Agreed?
accidentallich: (only god listens)

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed. I don't even know how to possess someone, haha...

[And he's pretty sure he doesn't know how to eat ghosts either?]
hemlockgarden: Morticia looking up, her expression a cross between amused and annoyed. (dreaming eye roll)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
You poor dear, you really haven't gotten out much at all, have you? Well come along, let me show you to the others, perhaps they'll have some advice to get you started, possession really is quite fun! [Morticia breaks the circle and offers him her hand.]

And your pajamas are quite sweet, but did I pull you from bed? I should have given you more warning!
accidentallich: (you gave me everything)

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Carefully, Gershom takes Morticia's hand. When was the last time he held someone's hand...? Maybe when he was alive?]

Oh, no - well, yes, you did surprise me, but these are my usual clothes. I haven't left the apartment in a decade, so there's not much point in dressing up...
hemlockgarden: Morticia looking amused, smiling camera left with her hand held under her chin. (Default)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Morticia pats his hand, completely unbothered by his litch-ness-ness. She's less than unbothered, really: he's just like any other family member.]

A whole decade! Why on earth would you stay inside so long, darling? Don't tell me you're from one of those worlds where everything has just faded away, are you? Those are really quite sad, even if the desolation is beautiful.
accidentallich: (a man falls down before he sinks)

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
No, no, nothing awful like that! But humans where I'm from don't really take well to... things like me. If someone sees me they'll call the police, or an exorcist, or something like that - it's just easier to hide.
hemlockgarden: Morticia looking amused, smiling camera left with her hand held under her chin. (coy)

[personal profile] hemlockgarden 2020-09-30 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, Mr Alter, you won't find any exorcists here, and you're welcome to stay as long as you'd like. Honestly! Some people just don't know how to be good neighbors.
accidentallich: (listen israel)

[personal profile] accidentallich 2020-09-30 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
You're really too kind to me. Thank you for the offer.

[He'd feel like a bother if he stayed, but it makes him happy anyway.]
