Second Chance Meme!

[zouichi.livejournal.com]

Okay, rocks fell, everyone died. Too bad, valiant meatshippers! But the good news is that you've all be reincarnated!

...as baseline humans on modern Earth.

Maybe you're waiting at a coffee shop, and you spot someone out of the corner of your eye that looks strangely familiar. Maybe instead of strangers from universes far apart, you and your close CR are now childhood friends who have always been together. Maybe you meet a former enemy as a friend, or a former friend is now a bitter enemy.

Are you a college student? A high-powered lawyer? A kindhearted schoolteacher?

What would your life have been like had you been born under different circumstances, and you met your fellow crew once again? If you had a second chance? Would you still fall into the same habits, be a victim of the same misfortunes? or would you use the opportunity to be someone completely different?

1. Post with your character, or tag someone else.
2. Set up the scenario you want to explore!

She rolls her eyes. "They are, aren't they? It's because you young people do all the writing. Once you've been married for a few decades you start to realize that 'I love every single thing you do' shouldn't apply to babying your manchild through doing his own laundry."

There's a trace of bitterness there. Her marriage hasn't been going so well for a few years now.

"Of course I'm going to hold you responsible. Smart kids like you should be setting the example, not fading into the background."

Zouichi blinks at her. "When you put it that way, I have so much to look forward to. Anyway, I thought most writing was done by 40-somethings and then performed by 20-somethings." Which made it all the more terrifying.

He sighs. "If people with a lot of time and money on their hands want to pay the price of a house for a sink that doesn't work, there's not really much I can do about it. I just like to draw."

"It's all downhill from there, young man," she says, but she's grinning. "Probably all writers just never matured past being 20-somethings."

She taps his sketchpad. "You're good at it. Trust me about that motion capture, though."

He frowns a little. "What do you suggest?"

"Not to take up drawing comic books, mostly."

He gives her a bit of a dry look. "Guess I'll ask my professor about it, then."
