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.

Alfie Solomons | Peaky Blinders

[devoutish]

[video]

[The network takes over one of Alfie's ledger books at a little before midnight on a night when he's up working late, and he is immediately certain of two things: one, this is a powerful and fantastical thing, the likes of which he has never seen nor heard of before.

And two, he absolutely does not have time for this right now.

From the way the book is positioned, viewers don't get a view of his full face - just the edge of his mouth and the left side of a full, neatly-trimmed beard. Also in the shot are the dark wood wall panels of his poorly-lit office, a strew of papers across the desk, and a very old-fashioned telephone.]

Fuck off.

[He says, his voice deep and gravely and extremely Cockney.]

I'm busy.

[Wondrous magical marvels can come later, thank you; right now, he has to work.]

[flirtyinventor]

You and me both, especially since this is quite impossible!

Re: Alfie Solomons | Peaky Blinders

[devoutish]

Yeah, it is. You, you that I'm talking to right now - you are impossible.

[so what pray tell the fuck, ma'am]

[silentsummoning]

[There's a dog person in a regal looking gold-trimmed purple robe sitting on what looks to be a throne, looking just as annoyed. And she has a golden crown on her head.]

I'm busy, too. Got mountains of paperwork, the sort I can't just delegate. Clearly some fool is pranking those who has better things to do. I will have to have someone investigate this.

[devoutish]

What breed are you?

[Look, if he's going to hallucinate weird bullshit, he's at least going to have fun with it.]

[silentsummoning]

Me? I'm Auau Ponomumu, one of the Kikin people considered as lowly. But we're more than what people think of us.

[She is gonna brag about her people okay.]

[devoutish]

You're sure you're not a poodle? You do look a bit like a poodle.

She's based off a scottish terrier in case you were curious

[silentsummoning]

And what would be a poodle? Another term for my people?

aaaaaa cute

[devoutish]

Fluffy thing. Often white. Some people take shears to them, and make shapes out of the fur.

[silentsummoning]

There will be no shearing my fur. But they do sound more like pets than people.

[aesopsfunerals]

It won't leave you alone. I've tried.

[ If he hadn't elected to reply through text, Alfie could have seen the exhaustion in this poor man's eyes as he wrote. ]

[devoutish]

You haven't tried everything, surely.

[Have you tried throwing it against the wall yet? BRB, he's going to give that a go. Enjoy the dizzying view as the feed films itself sailing through the air.]

Switching to audio then.

[aesopsfunerals]

[ Yes, this is a lovely view being projected on the wall here by his flying camera "friend..."

Aesop sighs and closes the journal...

... He has to talk to it now, doesn't he? ]

........ If you can hear this, that didn't work either.

[lightnovelexperiences]

Wait, you're not doing this on purpose? I compulsively meme anyway so BadgerNet tends to leave me alone, but uh.

Welcome to BadgerNet, it likes to badger folk?

[notably given her icons... the voice talking is a wavery tenor. And the face in the book is of an overweight mannish-looking fellow in glasses, who definitely has an Ashkenaz schnoz.]

[devoutish]

You compulsively what.

[Explain your newfangled terminology, Deedee!]

[lightnovelexperiences]

Meme. Uh, joke, make pataphorical references to media we've absorbed, sometimes involving putting the words of characters into cats caught in awkward poses. Making obscure-ass triple pun reacharounds that would make Maimonides squint.

For example.

[He posts this... incomprehensible garbage meme, and then winces and shrugs and gets anxious and stuttery.]

This would probably mean more to you if you had ever heard of Another World Online. Or Kamen Rider Build. Or - or, uh, okay, bad example...

Trust me, these wretched scrolls will not leave you alone until you make at least a token effort to, hmn. Badger those people of the myriad realms that now have your full attention, appropriately enough given this Interworld Web's sobriquet.

I see you and I share a profession, of sorts. I am similarly an auditor of wealth. If I told you that I was the Lord Hades, would you disbelieve? You will come to hear stranger things in time.

[devoutish]

You've got half my attention at best, mate.

[Which is honestly more posturing than truth at this point. He scratches thoughtfully at his beard, considering the words on the page.]

Have you got any pomegranate seeds for me?
