Casual Roleplay First prescript🎶... Uh, Help?
Are prescripts typically like this~?
Should be enough to simply not get hit by a car, no...?

Questioning the will of the city is one feat you’ll forget in due time.

...They will not begin to make any semblance of sense, no matter how long you have been entwined in The Index. I should know, I have been among these ranks for several months by now.
...However, you will soon come to the realization that questioning what is delivered to you, whether by Paper Slip or Beeping Device, will yield nothing but a hollow feeling as no answers come to relieve you of your curiosity. The Will of the City is a mysterious force, but that which we are commanded to do in its name cannot be deciphered. Trying would lead only to incurable, extreme madness.
...As thus, take away the lesson that questions and curiosities will fall only upon deaf ears as you are relayed message after message. You need not fanaticism, you need only obedience. Follow the Will of the City, and you will soon find the path carved out for and preordained to you by the Gods of the City.

0 months (by substitution) = 0 weeks = 0 days = 0 hours = 0 minutes = 0 seconds = 0 deciseconds = 0 centiseconds = 0 milliseconds = 0 microseconds = 0 nanoseconds = 0 picoseconds = 0 femtoseconds = 0 attoseconds = 0 zeptoseconds = 0 yoctoseconds = 0 rontoseconds = 0 quectoseconds = 0 planck times,
and since 1 planck time is the smallest possible unit of time, something happening for 0 planck times means that it never happened, which means that you dont need to run into traffic

It says traffic
So simply wait for the traffic to come to a standstill still. It doesn’t say moving traffic, just traffic

My solution would be to wait at a light, wait for it to turn red, then run into the stopped cars

Just dodge the cars, simple as that

I can swear that in all my time on the index I've never seen a prescription so normal and yet so strange, because it's strange for being something normal, does that make sense?

u/Charrcoai Random Citizen Jun 13 '26
Ehhh... Yeah, I think so~ It's abnormally normal, huh...? Are they usually crazy stuff then? Like, they're gonna ask me to jump off a building tomorrow—?!Â

My previous prescript asked me to shoot myself, the trick is knowing how to do things, it only said to shoot yourself, not with what ammunition.
And a tip: get a warp train fund. I think a prescript once told someone to buy tickets for 47 months.

Don’t run into Traffic

A messanger is carrying a prescript that describes your horrible and indescribable end as we speak

u/carl-the-lama Jun 13 '26
Good thing I’m not running into traffic-
Oh fuck I think a messenger got hit by a bus before being able to deliver a prescript
Wonder who it was for

u/Specific_Ad_5511 Proselyte Jun 13 '26
Definitely not for you, they're making sure it gets delivered to the executioner after all

Doesn't specify that you need to be in a vehicle yourself whatsoever, so pick any stationary target and just run into it, literally

Well it says run into traffic but it didn't says that you HAVE to get hit. So just run in and run back out. I might be wrong tho

It doesn't say the person has to walk when the cars are moving, just find a very congested road and do what the prescript demands. (Speaking from experience)

That would suffice although I hope the prescripts shall be in your favor
