Instructions:
Your character has been arrested, out of the blue.

For what? Who knows.

When and where? Up to you.

Your character has been dragged into one of those little interrogation rooms - the ones with the big one-way mirror (where your character can stare lovingly into his/her/its own reflection while creeping out the people beyond the glass). If your character has super-powers or advanced technology or has some forceful means of retaliation these cops don't care. They have whatever means necessary to keep your character where they are. You're supposed to know just as much about why your character has been arrested as your character does, so answer this all entirely in-character. No exceptions - don't fill this out if you don't plan to answer IC.

Remember your character has been arrested and hauled in for interrogation while doing nothing crime worthy. They don't know why they're in this situation, unless they are a criminal and might have an idea, and the cops have revealed nothing. Even if they have done nothing crime-worthy, ever, they've been arrested and must act accordingly.

If you have some sort of inseparable duo then, I'm sorry, but they've been separated. Answer for one of them, at the bottom you'll get to dictate the end (which may tie to your other character) anyway.

Bonus points if your character is on the police force and there's been a tragic mix-up.

To help with your answers:
The room is pitch black, other than the light shining directly into your character's face to make it possible for the cops to see your character but impairs your character's vision (if they're blind this isn't a problem to begin with).

There are two cops in the room, one is seated across a table from your character, for all intents and purposes his name is Fluffy. Fluffy has had a bad day and is seething with irrefutable rage at your character's alleged criminal activities (and the coffee he had earlier. It was half-cream. He loathes cream.). The other cop is by the door, your character will not know he's here until he speaks (unless they have some sort of ability/power/sense that would allow them to notice him), his name is Kroc. He is in an excellent mood, as he's indulging in sadistic fantasies starring your character.

They will both ignore any and all questions your character asks of them

This is a transition:

[1] Fluffy: We can do this the hard way... or the harder way. You give me any cute remarks and I get to have a field day with your face, ain't no good cops here to save you.

[2] Fluffy: Yeah. I've seen that look before. You're thinking that was the lamest thing you've ever heard, weren't you? Bet you think you're awful clever, huh? Think I'm stupid? Well we'll just see who the stupid one is when you're behind bars. How you like that, smartass?

[3] Fluffy: Let's start with the basics. Where were you last night 'tween ten an' eleven?

[4] Fluffy: Hah! You got the look of a killer, but nothin' happened last night 'tween ten an' eleven, but you knew that, didn' you? I saw that confused look in your eyes. Nah, we wanna know what you were doing at one in the morning last Wednesday.

[5] Fluffy: Just digging yourself a deeper hole. You think you can get away with that? We already know what you did last Wednesday. All you criminal folk are the same, thinking you can look all innocent and avoid persecution. Not while I'm around. Since we already know what happened and all why don't you tell us the truth?

[6] Fluffy: Gonna stick to the lies? Fine, fine, it'll make you look that much worse in court. Compulsive liar, adding it to the list. You've got quite the hefty file, did you know that?

[7] Fluffy: May not realize it, but everything piles up. Shoulda joined the police force before it was too late for you; the things we get away with! Hey, we could've been friends! [From the corner, Korc, there comes a low chuckle.] Yeah, probably not, I'd never be friends with scum like you. Speaking of scum, know who we got as a witness? No? C'mon, it'll be fun, just give it a guess.

[8] Fluffy: Not that I thought you'd figure it out, but I thought a criminal mastermind would be smarter. You ever even go to school?

[9] Fluffy: I don't believe it. Oh, look, it says here you're a compulsive liar, I guess that fits, then. Well, it was easy enough catching you, no matter your education. Think you can learn from the experience? Think you could do better next time? Make it a little more interesting for us?

[10] Fluffy: Yeah, yeah. Save it. Want some advice on how to do better next time?

[11] Fluffy: How about being less dense? I realize that's a lot to ask of you, but it might work out better if you really tried. What? Surprised? Thought I'd really help you out?

[12] Korc: State your name for the record.

[13] Fluffy: Really! This compulsive lying thing is really going too far, think you're cute, Vitamitamassimo? Think again.

[14] Fluffy: You don't... really look much like these mug shots from the past. But... it does say you're a master of disguise. You got a number I can call? Someone to contact? I'm so fired if you're actually a civvie.  

[Fluffy gets up to leave the room, pushing past Korc to investigate whatever information your character has given him, whether it be a phone number, address, identification or just their name. Below, write out the rest of the scenario using what you know of Fluffy, Korc, your OC and the environment. There may still be limitations on your character's powers and abilities, and any weapons they might have had on their person would have been taken away, but whatever was restraining them is now gone.]
Made with LadyKylin, tons of fun to make. Hopefully just as fun to do.

Anyway, instructions that are important are at the top, when re-posting feel free to get rid of the instructions and just link back to this (the blank). Would appreciate it if you linked back to the blank, anyway.
