Test Drive Meme (June + July)


TEST DRIVE MEME: JUNE + JULY 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 encouraged to use either first person or third person 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.
THIS CYCLE'S PROMPTS

#1 Refuge has opened its gates to the people of Union, Caldera and Citadel, in the most hospitable way they feel possible: A party. Some have come to explore the expansive underground city, but mostly, word has spread about how Refuge's brews are on point. They don't seem to discriminate on age, either.

#2 The city of Caldera is starting a major production project and they need workers. The forges are constantly going day and night and the pay's good, but it's hot, hard work that'll leave you tired and achy to say the least.

#3 The Summer Solstice festival has begun in Citadel. The tree is in full bloom, with flowers of every color dot its branches. This week-long celebration brings together the various tribes that call Citadel its home through music, dancing and, of course, fighting. There is a tournament set to begin, boasting some of the strongest Valkyries that Citadel has ever known among the combatants.

#4 The heat has really gotten to the people of Union, and as a result many have moved south for a weekend get-away in the Archipelago and the larger Island. The sand is warm and the water is too, but doesn't the beach seem a bit crowded for a once seemingly deserted area?

#5 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!

[ Cress honks even louder at the water jet, apparently taking that as some kind of personal insult. luckily, she also takes Polly's swimming away as surrender, and contents herself with hissing menacingly in the other Pokemon's direction before settling down a bit, eyeing James with a beady eye.

Bilbo rolls his own eyes at these antics and shakes the water from his hair. ]


To answer both of your questions, yes. This one's not as bad as she used to be, but she's dreadfully anti-social and seems to think I'm her mum. [ he sighs, but there's some fond mixed in with the Done. ] But yes, Bilbo Baggins at your service. Apologies for interrupting your peace and quiet, goodness knows there's not much of it here...

[James does his best to not look the duck in the eye. Don't want to accidentally issue a challenge or anything. He tries to keep track of Polly, though, in case she decides to make another run at things. Wouldn't be the first time.]

I know what you mean. [Sighs deeply.] Polly's... she never seems to listen to a thing you tell her, and she's always getting into trouble. [Honestly.]

I'm... a little surprised it lasted as long as it did. [Depending how long he's been out here.]

Ah, I know the type. [ best never introduce her to Teasel, actually, or the murkrow would probably have a relapse. ] She might just need something constructive to focus on, you know.

Mm, it's very, well, lively here right now. Feels like the entire city's come out here and then some.

You think so? [Never thought of that. Maybe part of him likes the trouble, too.] Things have been... difficult lately, but maybe... I could find some time. [He found time for this, didn't he?]

[Let's talk about something else. He doesn't want to be asked what's wrong right now. He wouldn't be here, if he did.]

It's too hot to do anything else, I think. Maybe the crowd'll thin when the sun goes down...
