Second Chance Meme!

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!
3. ???
4. Meme!

Lords' cuts to funding for public services such as schools and community centers have made him understandably unpopular among educators, librarians, and through some odd connection, military vets. He gets at least one angry letter a week from a retired Captain Wyvern, who makes liberal use of phrases like "neighborhood vitality" and the occasional Dostoevsky quote to get across points he suspects Senator Lord doesn't actually read.

Well, that isn't entirely true. Occasionally Zeke will read one out loud in his most melodramatic voice to his snickering staffers.

One of these days, Garreth is going to plow right into the Senator's office and show him the meaning of melodrama.

Today just happens to be that day.

There's a commotion at the reception desk, where a large scary black man is insisting that if the Senator is too busy to speak to him at the moment, then he will wait.
