Test Drive Meme (February + March)


TEST DRIVE MEME: FEBRUARY + MARCH EDITION



Welcome to [community profile] bravenewworld's test drive meme! This post is designed to help players test out their characters within the setting, as well as give them an opportunity to collect samples for their future application. The prompts below are all optional, and can be used to get a feel for the game, but we encourage players to get creative and use this post however best suits their needs. Players are welcome to use either prose or brackets for their threads.

When creating a thread, it is advised that players give their prospective thread partners a bit of information in the subject line, such as the characters name and canon, or a possible typing and Enlightened ability (if this is applicable). These are not required, but will make it easier for any prospective players to thread with you. While not required, we also encourage you to take a look at the most recent AU Planning post.
THIS CYCLE'S PROMPTS

#1 After the events in Union, the settlement of Refuge has decided to make the Shattering a more public affair. People who were impacted by the tragedies that befell the city, or those who wish to pay respects to a lost family member are encouraged to either send a Litwick off into the caves, or go off to find one. Who knows, you may find something out about yourself--or about the others around you.

#2 The Medical Center in Union is in need of volunteers, and has sent out a call. But it's not because of what you might think. The weather has been surprisingly warm this time of year, and because of it, a number of Pokémon have decided to, um, fix the population discrepancy that the Elite Four's attack has caused. Baby 'mon have overrun the Breeding Center, and many have found their way at the Medical Center for overflow. There are going to be a lot of diapers that need changing...

#3 With the warm weather hinting at a full return, flocks of Pokémon have begun their northern migration back into the Verdant Forest and beyond. Unfortunately, a few of the wild Flying-type breeds are less than respectful of old monuments, and the Lake and Forest Shrine have received a few unwanted guests making a mess. Shooing them off only seems to anger them, and the Shrines are filthy as a result of their visit. Ugh, will these rude Pokémon ever leave?!

#4 After the attack from the Elite Four, help has been filtering in from all parts of the known world. As a result, a number of temporary food carts have opened up in the business district of Union. Workers have to eat, right? This is a perfect time to expand your palette, but be warned, some of the delicacies can be a bit... eclectic, we'll say. Eat at your own risk.

#5 Wildcard! Come up with your own prompt!

Come on, we're Fanalis! There's no way a little drinking would make that happen to people like us.
flying_chains: (Chilled out)

[Well...

She does have more drinking experience than Morgiana does. And she IS much older, if rumor is to be believed...]

I supposed just one couldn't hurt...

Then you'll tell me more about Fanalis, right?
partyfog: (Tell me all about it)

[personal profile] partyfog 2016-02-03 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Sliiiiides a mug in front of her.]

What's the worst that could happen?
flying_chains: (Friendship!)

[personal profile] flying_chains 2016-02-03 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[It was true, the one ale she had tried hadn't really done much to her. And this drink was like half that size. It couldn't be that much worse.]

Alright. Just one.

[Sip.]
partyfog: (Can you speak up I'm super drunk)

TWO HOURS LATER

[personal profile] partyfog 2016-02-03 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[The preceding evening is largely a blur. Suika surveys the damage.]

Well... if we can get the statue standing back the right way up, it doesn't look too bad.
flying_chains: (In my butt?)

Re: TWO HOURS LATER

[personal profile] flying_chains 2016-02-03 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Suika...

[Shit what had she been about to say? Morgiana spends like ten seconds trying to remember.]

I think we...I think someone's gonna be mad.
partyfog: (Spiriting myself away)

[personal profile] partyfog 2016-02-03 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
This? Nawww, nobody's gonna mind. I mean, there's broken stuff all over the city! I bet nobody will even notice one little, uh...

[Vague gesturing.]

This.
flying_chains: (Pleased as punch)

[personal profile] flying_chains 2016-02-03 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
[At least one thing Suika had said was true. She didn't feel like she was going to throw up]

Maybe if we just...

[Morgiana grabbed the knocked over statue by the head and heaved.

Naturally, this rough treatment caused the statue to break again into yet smaller pieces.]
partyfog: (Keep it down over there)

[personal profile] partyfog 2016-02-03 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. That's probably pretty hard to fix.]

...It was probably in bad condition already.
flying_chains: (Eh?)

[personal profile] flying_chains 2016-02-03 07:56 am (UTC)(link)
Y-yeah, they really shouldn't have just left it out like that anyways.

[Gonna get in so much trouble later.]
partyfog: (This bottle understands me)

[personal profile] partyfog 2016-02-03 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't worry, we'll just have to be sure and tell someone in the morning.
flying_chains: (Hmm?)

[personal profile] flying_chains 2016-02-04 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
I feel like I wanted to ask you something at some point tonight...
