Inspired by a tweet I saw on Twitter a few weeks ago. Makes for an interesting character study - do they simply open the gate and go through, or do something else? Feel free to introduce different variables/situations when answering, but keep it centred around the idea of needing to cross the fence. Also feel free to explain their decision making, or not (your choice!)

Ray: turns around and tries to find another route
Amar: climbs a tree taller than the fence, then hops over (he fell)
Ceres: races her friends to see who can climb it fastes
Tethys: attempts to race but just goes through the gate with ray
Renier: races
Noa: checks to see if Amar is okay (he's fine)
Val: picks the gate's lock

I saw this, and instantly thought; “this’ll be hilarious.” I’m currently imagining something like a ten-foot chain-link fence, so here it is:
(These guys are all superheroes/supervillains, btw—)

Tabi: Leaps over the fence like nobody’s business
Khepri: Also jumps the fence; ignores the gate
Blue Hawk: Checks the gate; if it’s locked, she breaks the lock
Furocity: Yells “PARKOUR!!!” as she sails over the fence
Matador: Doesn’t see the fence in time and barrels straight through it; yells “Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry!!” to absolutely no one
Red Admiral: Kicks the gate to make it fly open dramatically
Man-O-Boar: Checks the gate; if it’s locked, he just climbs the fence
Buzzkill: Doesn’t see the fence in time and crashes into it; gets offended, “WHAT IDIOT PUT THIS HERE?!?”; kicks the gate open out of spite
Nezumi: “Barriers are beneath me”; SPROING
Mistress Mouse: Scrambles up and takes a second to crouch in a dramatic Spider-Man pose at the top

@Rabbi_Arsonist group

Milaka: She'd jump over it. She had a very high jump (6ft)

Levi: Smash it- If Milaka was there. He'd pick it until it unlocks

Abree: Smash it, doesn't matter whos there

Lisha: Go another way

Loki(Yep, finally included the antagonist): Absolutely Destroy the home itself

Adelaide(The antagonist wife): Push it open

@bonpyre ac_unit

Maki: Picks the lock or climbs the fence for the "experience". If she finds an open door she'd probably close it and do the same thing.
Thoma: Just opens the door. Probably the only one with common sense. (and the key)
Cherry: Literally blows it up. She has a c4 on her at all times.
Onyx & Venus: Onyx would break the lock off, and Venus would pick the lock or jump the fence. They'd leave the broken ankle for Onyx to deal with once Onyx takes over the body.

@AnxietyGremlin group

Quinn: finds the gate and throws it open dramatically

Oscar: tries to scale the fence but being the lazy bean he is, falls and just lays there

Robin: Scales the fence no problem

Cody: picks the lock on the gate and walks through

Circe: throws an acid potion on it and walks through the hole it makes

Azami: scales it, no problem. in a dress, because she an adventurer like that

Finn: Uses his wolf form to rip through the gate, or at least trys but feels bad after

Rainnee:r uns into the fence

@Nightmare_Eclipse language

Blade: Yell "WHAT IDIOT PUT THIS HERE?" And absolutely destroy both the fence and the home itself
Bracken: "Wow, dummy." Opens gate, if it's locked she picks the lock
Marigold: Scales fence no problem
Tiger: Runs into fence, realizes she ran into fence, then murders anyone nearby 'cause she ran into the fence

@Cecil-sixx-gold17 group

Simon: (had super speed) phases through it and only kinda gets his jacket stuck in it
Dean: climbs it l i k e a m a n
Henry: goes back to the base or makes dean open it from the other side
Chloe: (pyrokinesis) burns it down

Ava: (has wings) flies over it
Becky: turns around and goes back to the base
Julianna: tries to climb it, struggles, Ava ends up flying her over
Faith: picks the lock or cuts the chain because they don’t have time for tomfoolery

@IcarusFightsTheSun book

maddie: 'jumps, flips, back flips, climbs or tears a giant hole though the middle' to impress koco
beake: go to the front of the group opens it then closes it in duke's face LIKE A JERK!

@Pepsi-spilled-on-the-pages

(If the gate is unlocked)
Hector: Opens it
Kenzo: Would attempt to jump over it (then realizes its unlocked)
Silvia: thinks its locked, throws a fit, then realizes its not

(if the gate is locked)
Hector: Goes around
Kenzo: Jumps the gate
Silvia: Throws a fit and starts kicking the gate. then cuts a hole in the gate and crawls through

@trainwreck404 group

Simon: Superspeed vibrates himself through, looks back at his friends, and just goes "what?"
Sarah: Checks to see if it's locked first, because she's smart. If it's locked, she has Chloe lockpick it. If it's not, she just opens it.
Chloe: Lockpicks it and then gets annoyed if it was already unlocked.
CJ: Slashes through the lock/latch with their gauntlet.
Asia: Tries to open it and then turns away, so she's not a witness to Chloe lockpicking it.
Logan: Uses his powers to destroy the fence.
Lucas: Also superspeed vibrates himself through but did not mean to and just ends up confusing himself.
Adam: Tries to superspeed vibrate himself through but can't so he just lockpicks it. CJ did not know he could do that and is just vaguely concerned.
Noah: Yeets his entire body into the fence at his max speed and just ends up breaking an arm.
Dean: Tries to jump it and most likely fails miserably or at least masterfully fumbles the landing. Definitely isn't embarrassed when he finds out that it was unlocked.
Henry: Uses his powers to blast a hole in the fence and probably set an alarm off somewhere.

@tazu group

Andrew: he kicks it to see if it's locked, if it is jumps and flips over it with ease; if it's unlocked he literally kicks it open the gate, sometimes it just breaks
Canarie: the same as Andrew except she's not as aggressive
Jackie: he's never the one to open it. (see Iris)
Iris: slices the gate open with her knife (locked or not)
Leo: burns/melts it down
Benny: does that gag where he climbs it over only to see the gate open right in front of him

SkullFace

SkullFace: looking the fence up and down Hmm. This should be easy. looks and finds a lower part of the fence and digs there because the fence is kinda broken there and slips under Easy, just as i thought.

@Avhira-The-Eldritch-Horror group

Mira: …. climbs a tree, jumps over
Emilie: Tosses a phone over it, teleports to the phone
Dawn: climbs it, but falls
Mira: catches Dawn
Amelia: You are all idiots. Casts a spell of unlocking on it, opens the gate, walks through Really, you could've just waited for me.

James: can't find the gate.
Ben: runs into it. "WHO PUT THAT THERE?!?!?!?" runs into it again.
