Test Drive Meme (April + May)


TEST DRIVE MEME: APRIL + MAY 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 A naughty Castform is following people around and causing rain wherever they walk. Talk about spring showers!

#2 The Flower Grove is well-known for its spring blossoms. Your character has gone to visit, only to discover Gloom have moved in to enjoy the pleasant fragrance! And now the pleasant fragrance...isn't.

#3 This baby Pidgey has fallen out of its nest!!! What do you do? Do you get help? It's squawking and flapping like nobody's business. Might be hard to hang onto without somebody else around to spot you...

#4 Glacier is excited for the Big Spring Thaw! They will tell this to anyone who comes to see them at Citadel, and will even lead expeditions up to the Obsidian Flats to show off the lovely warm weather......while it's still snowing.

#5 Union is still repairing itself after Kyurem's attack. Construction workers are needed at this site. Humans and Pokémon are both welcome, but the supervisor is a Machoke. Communication could get tricky.

#6 Wildcard! Come up with your own prompt!


If you have any setting questions, or want to do some reading before posting a thread, you can find the setting directory here! Happy tagging!

[ Shizuru's umbrella rotates behind her as she gives the question due thought. ] I was thinking seeing more of the city would be nice. It's not putting out its best foot for me, though...

Perhaps some company would help to chance your mind?

[He would offer his arm, but he's still sopping wet. He didn't want to ruin her clothes as well.]

Though I'm afraid I'm a bit new here myself. An expedition could be in order.

That sounds adventurous.

[ She's game, though. What looks like sunlight might be poking out from the clouds in places. ] I know a good first stop.

Then by all means, lead the way my lady.

[He gives another flourish of a nod, smiling brightly. In the very least, Richard had his manners.]

[ Shizuru begins walking. She can't take very long steps since she's in a kimono, but ah well. ] I'm afraid I haven't been able to place your accent.

[ Deino draws up alongside Shizuru between her and Richard. Must be coincidence. ]

[Richard isn't about to make any moves on your mistress, Deino. No worries. He walks slowly to help her keep up.]

You don't say? I'm afraid everyone sounds a bit different to me as well.

Caldera.

[ For her. Very, very thick. Accent. ] Yourself?

[ That was an admirable deflection earlier - if deflection it was - but she isn't defeated so easily. ]

[He doesn't have anything to hide.]

Sanctuary.

[At least, if he does he doesn't know it. Richard may just be a bit ignorant. He's not yet to run into anyone with any kind of stigma or opinion over where someone else may come from.]

Though I have been in Caldera before. It is a lovely place.

[As for accent, Richard's been through the most rigorous of speech and oration classes. Everything he says is even, nuanced, and very understandable.]

We don't get all this greenery, though.

[ They reach a fork in the road. ] Ah, this way.

[ Speaking of greenery......this particular route is absolutely crammed full of flowering trees. And shrubs. And bushes. But all very well-maintained.

There's just a lot of flowers here. It's overkill. ]
