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!

[ A mascot costume?!

She's willing to pay her dues. She'll do those dues. She'll do those dues like they've never been done before. Heck maybe her Caterpie will help her do a duet! If it's not too busy fretting over how immodest the curtain is.

When Ranka returns, looking exceptionally ridiculous, there's only one more question: ]


You want the traditional work song, right?

If you could.

[There's no reaction for the costume. Kyosuke is a solid, stoic man.]

[ Come on, sing back-up? she pleads with her eyes, to no avail. Caterpie is sitting this one out. Way, way out. The forge is too hot for the poor little bugger.

Ranka gathers her courage. It's so loud! How could she ever be heard over all this? Maybe they should have invested in a speaker system.

No! The first rule of starting out is not criticizing your lack of a professional set-up. This gig is a gift. She is going to be disciplined and professional and-- ]


A- A- Ahhh---!

[ The costume's large ears might look cool, but boy, the headband they're on is poorly constructed. If she doesn't hold her head at just the right angle, it'll start sliding to one side and fall off.

She catches it just in time. Takes a deep breath. The fires of Caldera are little comfort to one attuned to the greener parts of nature, but Fire types need love and support to grow, too. ]


One, two, three, four-- [ It's no use, she's got to be louder. She throws a hand up in the air to pose, barely managing to keep the headpiece on in the process. ] Everyone, it's time to Rock ♪!

[There's some scattered applause, which grows a bit more pronounced as Kyosuke gives the troops a sharp look]
