[discontinued lmao] Object Character Roll (OCR)

Three figures floated in the vast, cold, infinite abyss of space. One slammed down a card with their leg, a blue six.

Unknown 1: Haha, loser.

The second person looked confused.

Unknown 2: What? I thought we were playing chess.

Unknown 3: We're playing a board game?

The third person was holding a connected XBox controller in their hand. The other two looked at them.

U2: What?

The first one flipped the Monopoly board they were playing on into the air, scattering the cards around the vast space.

U1: WHAT THE HELL ARE WE EVEN PLAYING?!

U2: Calm down, Digital. No need to get angry over a game.

The first clock, Digital Clock, looked annoyed. They glared at the third object, who gulped and turned away quickly, clutching the controller tightly.

Digital Clock (U1): Well, I'm bored.

The triad of clocks sat in silence for a while, enjoying the sound of nothing. Suddenly, the second clock had an had an idea.

U2: I have the perfect idea to cure your boredom and restore energy!

DC: What, Wall? It better not be stupid.

Wall Clock (U2): Say, Digital, have you ever heard of an object show?

The third clock perked up.

DC: Nah. Sounds lame.

U3: Oh, I know! It's a gameshow, but using sentient and anthropomorphic objects as contestants!

Wall looked.

WC: Yeaaaah... Yeah. An object show!

Digital scoffed, still uninterested.

DC: Pfft, still sounds boring as heck.

WC: Well, I don't mind sitting here for an eternity doing nothing and wasting energy. What about you, Alarm?

The third and final clock, Alarm Clock, quickly shook their head. The trio remained like that for a time, Digital Clock shifting uncomfortably every few seconds. Finally, they gave in.

DC: Ugh, fine! We'll do your stupid object show.

WC: Wonderful! Does anyone have a good location to set it up?

Alarm Clock (U3): U-Um, we can set it in space! On a floating island!

Wall thought for a bit.

WC: Splendid idea!

Wall Clock stood up from their sitting position, stretching their long limbs. They snapped their fingers sharply, which created a large, green island. The island was surrounded by smaller islands, each with a plain flag and empty house on them.

WC: We'll host the main show in the centre island! Now, for the co-

DC: GOT IT!

Said clock ran over to Wall, handing them a whole file with their foot. As soon as it fell into Wall's arms, they oofed, leaning down due to the weight and amount.

DC: I've got many challenges for these idiots to do.

WC: I admire the enthusiasm, Digital! Now, to actually get contestants. How do we do that...?

DC: WE KIDNAP THEM!

WC: NO! We need a much more... *ahem*... peaceful resolution.

AC: U-Uh, we could send out flyers to d-different worlds?

WC: Great idea, Alarm. Could you possibly be in charge of that?

AC: Y-Yeah!

Alarm dashed off through space, readying the advertisement method as Digital lingered around the island. They turned to Wall Clock.

DC: Oi, Wall! What are we gonna name this thing? Every good show has a name!

WC: I've actually been thinking about that... How does OCR sound?

DC: OCR? The 'ell does that stand for?

WC: It stands for Object Character Roll!

DC: That's the ****tiest name I've ever heard for a show.

WC: A- Well at least it's not MOSS!
