Ok then, here goes:


Imagine the scene. You're walking along one day, doing whatever it is you do, minding your own business. Then, suddenly, everything goes a little funny and you find yourself falling through a hole in time and space. When you come to, you are lying on the ground in an appropriate gameworld, and standing in front of you is one of your RPG characters - looking as bemused as you, most likely. What is the first thing that you do?

Pick five characters.

Assuming I'm aware of their existence, but not the other way around, as that's more entertaining:

On discovering Whisp:
Me: "Oh, shit, I'm going to die."
Whisp: "Eh? I'm not going to kill you."
Me: "No, it wasn't you I was worried about."
Whisp: "What then?"
Me: "Oh, I dunno. Undead, Demons, Fae..."

On discovering Thaelin:
Me: "Uhh, soo... you're scaly. You can teach me magic though, right?"
Thaelin: "Hahahahahahahahahaha..."

On discovering Kamali (WoW):
Me: "Huh. Well, at least I can't die eternally now. Nice ears."
Kamali: "Thanks."

Oh, almost forgot. On discovering Raphael (Changeling):
Me: "What are you?"
Raphael: "Aww, crap."

"Oh fuck...I'm *so* one-global, aren't I? Bastard bastard bastard..."

[raphaelcentauri.livejournal.com]

Hee hee, yep, somethin' like that. "Damn, why are all my character points in Literacy..."

[cybertrixx.livejournal.com]

Oh wow. I'm just seeing that one now. "What??? Where! Illini! Argh!"

[littlefeltfangs.livejournal.com]

A human has just fallen through a rift in time and space.
The Illini /ARE/ coming! Hehehehe.

[chalicier.livejournal.com]

Thank you, the last one's just made me grin like an idiot.

Maelstrom:
Me: *jaw drops*

Riftworld:
Ketta: Warprift! Everyone back!
Me: *Complete mental breakdown at the doom*

[cybertrixx.livejournal.com]

Jaw drops in the 'holy fuck...you exist...' way, or jaw drops in the 'holy fuck, I've just popped into the world through a rift and I'm standing in front of a loyal eidolon who will inevitably try to kill me...aaaargh!' way?

Polly...
Swear and run. And probably die, unless she has something more entertaining to do.

Izza...
Try frantically to convince her I'm not an eidolon, and hope she's not under orders to guard the area. Fake a message from Amirah if necessary to survive the first minute. If going home remains out of the question, tell her a huge long list of things she needs to hear, and thereby ensure a fanatically loyal friend with combat skills, and (hopefully) less angst.

Adelaide...
Look around for her lackies, who will probably be trying to kill me for appearing in such an obviously unnatural manner.

Lady Tecalla...
Curtsy as best as I can while keeping an eye out for half-ogres, and do my best to convince her I have information she's interested in hearing. Then sell her ideas for gadgets. "Hey, did you know you can put Helium in blimps? Makes them burn and die slightly less often... let's go talk to someone at the University, shall we?"

Myta...
Look around anxiously for Horrible Monsters. Say how glad I am to have found such a well-respected adventurer, and hint that there might be a reward for getting me home.

Good god. Porting in to be greeted by polly - now *that's* a nasty surprise...

*OOooooOO! Another toy! Daddy will be pleased...*

[clericalkender.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Mostly, people would be at some advantage manipulating their own characters, thanks to knowing exactly what to appeal to (loyalty, curiosity, business sense, ego, etc). Unfortunately, Polly has no redeeming features. The Mother Voice has been known to control her, but I really don't think I'd be scary enough for that to work.

[clericalkender.livejournal.com]

... on the plus side, you know it wouldn't hurt much. It always surprises Polly how easily humans break.

[cybertrixx.livejournal.com]

It would be rather amusing, in that 'oh fuck don't kill me' way to see which buttons you could successfully press without getting killed. Angst-triggers ahoy!

Xelloss...

Try and convince him that I, too, have fallen out of a hellish fae realm and then get very drunk together and try to steal Guido's hat.

Bisse...

Ah, I'd be in good hands, there. I could probably explain things truthfully, too. We'd end up drawing pictures together and she'd make me tag along with her in order to 'protect me'.

Arielle...

Try to tempt her into wickedness and get tornado-d for my trouble.

Barton...

Watch her panic as she immediately assumes I'm an evil spirit and spend half an hour ducking pots, pans and other kitchen implements thrown at my head. Sadly, she'll probably take me up to the captain and I'll be thrown overboard...

Celos...

See if I can sit her down and try to shake her of her elitist, snobby attitude and then get her drunk. Elves are easily made tipsy. ^_^

Varas:
Me: "Holy fuck... you really are taller than me".
However this relies upon me lasting long enough to surive the fact that I'd just appeared out of thin air next to him.

[cybertrixx.livejournal.com]

Yes. I can imagine varas saying "Abomination! Fallen! Stealing my shape...but wait...you got it wrong! I'm far taller than that! Ha!"

Shih Chin, Shadovald.
Me: Aaargh! Lost the path! Fae! Shadows! Help! Help . . . what? Is . . . is this Inselburg? I escaped? The fae don't have me??
Shih Chin: . . .
Hopefully this gets her sympathy. Shih Chin's sympathy is worth having. I have some knowledge of the shadovald alchemy system, so maybe she'd make me her apprentice? Or introduce me to Sharif, at least. And if we don't get on, Guido!

Aislynn, Maelstrom.
Me: I'm not a fallen! I'm not! Honest! There has to be some way you can check this, don't hurt me!
Aislynn: If yer not an eidolon, what the feck are you?
Me: umm . . . a human from another world?
Aislynn: I need a drink.

[cybertrixx.livejournal.com]

I love the fact Shih Chin just sits and doesn't say anything!

Just been been trawling lrpdrabbles to make Event Week pass more quickly, found your maelfroth-riddled LJ, and couldn't resist this 'un.

Pringle (Aberddu, preferably before he Ascended)
Me: Er... shit, it's him. Ah, fuck. That means there's probably a half-dozen assassins around here somewhere looking for someone that looks pretty much exactly like me.

Cornelius el-Qual'da (Aberddu again)
Me: Ah. I appear to have dropped out of a magical rift of some kind. What a terrible shame no-one around here is clever enough to get me home again.
Cornelius: *sound of outraged coughing followed by frantic searching through books*

Sergeant Thomas Mann (RIP)(Maelstrom)
Me: Er. Hello. I've been hearing about this bloke, the "Baron"? I hear he's quite the guy by all accounts. You wouldn't happen to know him, would you?

Brother Farael (Maelstrom)
Me: Er... Hello! I've been thinking of converting to the Teacher, and I have some interesting theories about mana flows that you might want to hear about. And I'm quite happy to listen to people witter on for hours and hours and hours...

I won't bother with my LT character, as it would just be a scream followed by some crunching sounds.

Xochiyotl
Me: Argh! err... Scholars! Mill-en! Illini! Hunapa!
Xochiyotl: ...
Me: Erm... Got caught in Maelstrom and have funny images in my head?

Hiat
Me: I'm not interested! I'm /really/ not interested. (runs away)

Su
Have nervous breakdown. Probably get repeatedly poked by Su in an attempted to work out why I was staring blankly into middle-distance.
Su: Hello! Where you from?! You not wibbly! Hey! Ne?
