You are a Dog

Post by HerdsCats » Thu Jun 25, 2015 5:37 pm

► Show Spoiler
You are a dog. You enjoy doing normal doggie things, such as sniffing butts, eating cat poop, and rolling in dead things. Right now, you are in the middle of a "wanna go for a ride?" with your master. You love your master very much, for he feeds you, and plays with you, and lets you sleep in his bed, except for when you roll in dead stuff - then he makes you sleep in the garage until after you get a bath.

This "wanna go for a ride" has lasted for a very long time. Much longer than you are used to, so long, in fact, that you and your master need to stop for a pee break.

Choose one:

A) pee on everything, then get back in the car like a good dog
B) insist on sniffing everything in sight. Refuse to pee.
C) SQUIRREL!!

Also, what kind of dog are you?

You are a dog. Specifically, you are a Labrador retreiver, and your are considered to be Man's best friend. You enjoy doing normal doggie things, such as sniffing butts, eating cat poop, and rolling in dead things. Right now, you are in the middle of a "wanna go for a ride?" with your master. You love your master very much, for he feeds you, and plays with you, and lets you sleep in his bed, except for when you roll in dead stuff - then he makes you sleep in the garage until after you get a bath.

This "wanna go for a ride?" has lasted for a very long time. Longer than you are used to, so long, in fact, that you and your master need to stop for a pee break.

Your master pulls over to the side of the road and relieves himself in some bushes. When he comes back to let you out of the car, you realize it is not a road you are familiar with. Your master was so smart to mark his territory here! You follow suit and lift your leg on everything too. This tree, that bush, that patch of grass, this patch of grass, this spot over here where master marked... Oh! And also on that strange stone thingy. Yeah, you pee on that thing real good.

When you're finished, you wag your tail all the way back to the car and go on your merry way.

You drive for another forever amount of time before your master stops the car again. He lets outa relieved sounding sigh, pats your head, and says "We're here, boy. Welcome home."

You leap out of the car excitedly when he opens the door, and then are immediately confused. This is home? This is definitely NOT home. It smells wrong to you, and everything is the wrong shape or the wrong size or in the wrong place. You don't know where this place is, but it certainly isn't home.

The big smelly truck that visited your home and took away for favorite sofa and also your not so favorite vacuum cleaner pulls up to the curb behind your masters car.

Pick 2

A) sniff around this strange place to see what is around?
B) jump back in your masters car and hope he realizes that he drove to the wrong home?
C) try to get into the big smelly truck and find your favorite sofa?
D) try to make the best of it by marking this place as your territory ?
E) stick by your master like glue, sitting on his feet or on his lap or his face whenever possible ?

Roll Results
► Show Spoiler

You opt to make the best of things, and explore this place that is not-home. You're sure your master will figure out his mistake sooner or later, and then you can go back to your real home. But in the mean time... So many great smells! You put your nose into overdrive, and explore the yard within the confines of it's fences. Not-home is bigger than real-home, both in terms of the building, and the property proper. It also has a 4 foot chain-link fence on all sides, though you have to go through a prickly-brushy-wooded area in the backyard in order to find the back part of it. You didn't like that part of the yard. It was too pointy. You did, however, like big mossy-grassy area that covers most of the yard. It feels soft under your paws, and it captures scents REALLY well. You manage to catch a whiff of a family of rabbits (SUPER fresh), a lone deer (not so fresh), some squirrels and several different human smells, three of which are distinctly masculine, two feminine, and two that were sort of faint and unrecognizable. In addition, you can also smell fresh cat-scent, at least three of them, and dog-scent, of which you can smell two.

The dog-scent is more exciting to you, because it is the freshest and most potent. It smells like a pair of small-ish dogs, probably litter-mates, who seem to come into this yard quite frequently. According to doggie etiquette, however, now that you're here, this place is your place, and so you attempt to mark your territory. It, it uh, it doesn't go so well. For starters, you already emptied most of your bladder during your ride with master. And since you haven't had anything to drink, your bladder is mostly empty. You do have a small bit in reserve, which you use to sprinkle on one of the prickly bushes in the back - the one that smells most strongly of dog-scent. The inhabitant of that bush is NOT happy about it.

A scrappy little dog dashes growls and charges at you, hackles raised, and teeth showing. He doesn't appreciate being "marked", and makes it very clear to you that he thinks this is HIS territory. His sister also crawls out of a hole in the ground, filthy and covered in dirt and blood. Your nose tells you it isn't hers.

Thankfully, you know your doggie manners, and apply them accordingly. Wagging your tail, and rolling onto your back, you offer the two every submissive gesture you know about. The sister dog is accepts your apology and enters into a play bow. Her brother, not so much. He isn't overly agressive, but does not want to play, his body language telling you "stay away, don't' bother me and I won't bother you".

Pick 2

A) Try to change the brother dog's mind, and engage him in play?
B) Ignore the brother dog, and only play with the sister?
C) Hunt whatever it is they're hunting?
D) Go back to Master - He should know there are intruders in the yard
E) Run around the yard in circles because it's just SO EXCITING to see other dogs!!!!!!

Lol, not at this time. You're a friendly (though a tad bit dimwitted) dog, and these two boogers haven't done anything yet that would warrant you to attack. You can always force it through an Action, but given that the one is friendly, and the other is angry at you, if your roll fails it could spell trouble. You feelin' lucky?
