TEST DRIVE MEME: JUNE + JULY EDITION
Welcome to
![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
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 Summer means it's time for a vacation! You and your Pokémon have hit the beach only to discover that not only has everyone else had the exact same idea, there's a bullying Raichu and Snubbull wandering around stepping on people's sandcastles! Will you stand up to them or let the squabble pass you by?
#2 A Noctowl has delivered you a message inviting you to enroll in Sanctuary's "Spoinkwarts School of Magecraft". How will you respond? If you say yes, you'd better head there for your supplies....it's doubtful you're able to buy cauldrons and Swellow-feather quills in Union.
#3 Perhaps it's time to beat the heat by heading to Refuge. But you've ventured there as evening is falling, and that can only mean one things: Zubats. Zubats everywhere. All at once. Suddenly. There is no escape, there is no release. There is only Zubat, and this cave.
#4 Aggron from the northern mountains have discovered Glacier music and are trying it out for themselves! Unfortunately, the only parts they've mastered are the grunting, yelling, and whipping their heads (and tails) around violently. Enjoy the concert!
#5 The Verdant Forest is full of pollen this time of year! And it looks like this Petilil that won't stop following you is allergic to....itself. It's also giving off pollen. Everywhere. Seriously, even if you don't have allergies, you're in trouble.
#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!

[Elaine's palms skim downward along the curve of Arachne's spine, probing lightly at the low dip. Yes, there's definitely a lot of pent up tension there too. She presses firmly downward with the heels of her palms, kneading slowly and rhythmically as she coaxes the flow of her patient's chi to continue circulating, as it seems to be building up in a heavy concentration in that area. People carry their stress in different parts of their body, so it's nothing too unusual.]
[A tiny Cleffa toddles into the room, holding up a trio of scented and unlit candles up to Arachne for her inspection.]
Cleffa? Cleffa? Cleffa!
[One smells of vanilla and tropical fruit, the second has a light floral fragrance, and the last is slightly musky and fresh, like sanded wood and fresh cut grass. Clearly she is supposed to choose one. Or none.]
no subject
The arrival of the Cleffa thankfully provides a distraction, even if a mildly irritating interruption, as she lifts her head slightly from where it had been resting on her arms. Being a shifter allowed her to easily grasp the young pokemon's intent, even if it was fairly clear. And it was nice to be able to make a choice.]
Hmm?
[The first scent was pleasing, but... too soft? Sweet? Frowning, she inspected the others in turn, before finally settling to the third one. There was something much more calming about an outdoor scent. At least that was one she could easily identify.]
That third one should do.
no subject
[Annalise nods sagely, as if to imply that she favors that one too and that a good decision has been made. She skip bounces over to the cupboard, opens it up, and carelessly chucks the other two candles inside with a noisy clatter.]
[Elaine winces, while trying not to snicker indulgently. The Cleffa has much to learn if she truly wants to be Elaine's assistant.]
Quietly please, Annalise.
[The Cleffa turns, blinking. Then whispers.]
Cleffaaaaaaaaa~
[Okay. Well. Not quite what Elaine was getting at, but she'll have to do a little training later. She shakes her head, never stopping or slowing her movements since she can feel the natural balance beginning to take shape. Cleffa gathers a bundle of the woodsy candles, setting them around the room and lighting them one by one.]
no subject
Not very experienced, is she?
[Perhaps with some credit for trying. The scent from the lit candles were starting to drift in already, putting her more at ease for her choice.]
no subject
[Elaine smiles, placing the palm of her hand between Arachne's shoulderblades and sweeping downward with a slow, firm motion.]
She's young for her kind. But she's willing to learn.
[Elaine kneads deeply into the muscle tissue just above the rear.]
I'll give you an extra fifteen minutes to make up for it, free of charge.
no subject
For being tolerant of the little one's mistakes, perhaps, and it was hard to deny the benefits of the massage.
She exhales, slowly, as she turns the thought over in her mind, and as Elaine reaches the troublesome area.]
There isn't a catch?
no subject
[She splays her fingers wide apart, spreading a slow, kneading rub that moves up the middle of Arachne's back.]
You were just starting to relax and got interrupted. So that's time I need to make up for, as an apology for the inconvenience. Plus a few bonus minutes since the interruption happened at all.
[She pulls back before choosing a small vial of unscented oil, working a few drops into her hands and rubbing briskly together.]
It's just good customer service, don't worry about it.
