TEST DRIVE

Maybe you've been here for a while, or maybe you just got here. Either way, you're all in the same situation - you've been turned into a magical gemstone and stranded in a foreign world! And all you've been left with is the clothes on your back, stripped of all powers except one.

Clearly, you’ll just have to make the best of it.

How this works:

☆ This is a test drive for [community profile] cosmographia, which means you should get a little familiar with the setting and premise.

☆ Otherwise, this is just meant to help you feel out how you may play and serves mainly as a chill interest gathering and get together kind of post! No app necessary, and you don't need to play in this post to apply - or vice versa.

☆ Everybody is welcome! There are no character limitations; pg au oc canon pigeon whatever. Just toss up a topcomment and/or jump any threads that pique your interest.

☆ Rules-wise: Be cool to yourself and others, and keep in mind the other game rules too.

☆ If you do apply to the game and are accepted, and you want to keep the CR, you may so long as what you did isn't setting breaking and everyone involved agrees.


YOUR OPTIONS:

☆ You find yourself in the Heart of a ruined temple. There is a large glowing gem that thrums with some kind of rhythm, and jewels scattered all over the room, kept in strange bubbles. At the very least, touching the large gem will give you a standard info-dump, but some of you might be a little cautious about touching weird luminescent gems. Good thing that there are other people there too!

☆ Or perhaps you already know everything there is to know, and are there in the Heart of the Ruined Temple to greet new arrivals. Or perhaps you simply had business there already, like storing away a corrupted gem from a monster, when someone new seemingly dropped in from no where.

☆ It's Farmer's Market day in the plaza of Waverly Bay! Perhaps you're there perusing the goods and strike up conversation, or accidentally bump into someone and get to know them that way. It's a fairly standard day.

☆ There's an event! You don't really know what else to call them - missions, perhaps? But something in the temple was triggered, and the glowy Heart gem has something new to "tell" you: If you want a new power, you should try telling other people two truths and a lie. Those who you interact with must try and divine the lie from your statements.

You have no idea how something this simple will get you a power, but hey.

[Yup, she's a pony alright. And still hugging you!]

Yup! Me and Fluttershy have been here for about a month now, and Sunset arrived just a short time ago too! It was on the same day as my birthday party, too!

[That voice... could it be? She wasn't a pony, but her hair... and skin... everything just screamed 'Twilight' to her. But no. She couldn't assume that... that'd be rude.

But then she hears the word 'Equestria', and her curiosity gets the better of her. She approaches the girl... albeit very slowly.]


U-Um... hello... this is a little awkward, but... your name wouldn't happen to be Twilight Sparkle, would it?

[Give Twilgiht a second, she's taking this in. Still, she returned the hug.]

I'm glad that you're alright. [She bent down] So you, Fluttershy, and Sunset are all here? Umm... are you and Fluttershy the same Pinkie and Fluttershy form my world?

[Twilight turned around at the sound of the voice. She didn't recognize the person, but apparently they recognized her.]

Yes, my name is Twilight Sparkle. Can I help you?
tsukurimasho: (Thinking: I have a question!)

[personal profile] tsukurimasho 2015-05-04 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Waverly Bay... [Committing that to memory.] Well, it's nice of them to prepare homes for us... [It made her feel a little better.]

I guess it's better than what it could be. Like being trapped in a city that's hostile.
tsukurimasho: (Normal: Oh?)

[personal profile] tsukurimasho 2015-05-04 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
W-Well, um... kind of? I guess more of an unwilling one... This is the third place I've wound up in. [But the first where she actually physically brought herself here, even if she didn't realize where that hole led.]

I know you through my neechan-- um, through Fluttershy.

[...She doesn't recognize her. Which doesn't shock Juniper all that much, considering this Twilight's a human. Maybe... alternate universes? Is that what the other Twilight called them?]

U-Um, I'm sorry. I just... I've kind of met a Twilight Sparkle before. She was a pony. I-I don't mean to cause any confusion...
spontaneouscombustion: Feel free to use with credit! (Hi!)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-05-04 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Well, yeah, why wouldn't I be?

Aaaaand depends: which world are you from?
spontaneouscombustion: (I can see it now!)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-05-04 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Wait, you know Fluttershy too?! That's FANTASTIC, the Fluttershy that's here now is a world hopper too! Maybe you two remember each other!
most_awkward_human: (7)

[personal profile] most_awkward_human 2015-05-04 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Umm... the same one where we're normally ponies?

[How else could she explain it?]
tsukurimasho: (Surprised: Whaa!?)

[personal profile] tsukurimasho 2015-05-04 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Sh-she is? She didn't happen to have a... dragonfly pin in her mane... did she?
spontaneouscombustion: (I can see it now!)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-05-04 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Then YAY, we ARE from the same world! Well, kinda! THIS Fluttershy's from a SLIGHTLY different Equestria, AND she's been to other worlds before!
spontaneouscombustion: (I can see it now!)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-05-04 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
She DOES have a dragonfly pin in her mane!
tsukurimasho: (Happy: Good luck!)

[personal profile] tsukurimasho 2015-05-04 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Say hello to the brightest grin ever to cross this girl's face.] Neechan... big sister is here too!

[And failing to hide her excitement, she's almost bouncing on her feet!]
spontaneouscombustion: (The Element of Laughter)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-05-04 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Pinkie's bouncing as well!]

Yay, world-hopping buddies! And that means WE can be buddies too now, right? I'm Pinkie Pie, by the way!
cyan_maid: Jane determined to bake (Baking is the best!)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2015-05-04 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Jane truthfully has her own reservations about her friends appearing, what with how she had treated them before she arrived, but to meet the other kids, the ones John knew? That would be fantastic.]

They could! It feels like almost anything is possible here!! [Especially now.]
tsukurimasho: (Excited: Welcome to my home!)

[personal profile] tsukurimasho 2015-05-04 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Whoops, looks like she got so excited that her big sister was there that she forgot her manners!]

Of course! My name is Chiyo Mihama... but many of my friends call me Chiyo-chan! It's nice to meet you, Pinkie!

[personal profile] burningbrighter 2015-05-04 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, most people are pretty nice!

Do you know why we're here yet?

[personal profile] most_awkward_human 2015-05-04 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Fluttershy... she's been too... what?!

[She look even more confused and ready to lose it now.]
most_awkward_human: (7)

[personal profile] most_awkward_human 2015-05-04 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh it's okay! I understand. And... well I am a pony actually. I had gone to a human version of my world before being brought here and I remained in this form.

... when I have to use the same icon three times cause one expression that's like this...

[personal profile] sunshineandpinecones 2015-05-04 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
R-Really? This is a little strange then... [Even being told about alternate universes, Junie can't... really parse it.] All of the explanations I've been told are over my head. Or maybe if you were the same Twilight, you can't remember the city. I-I don't know. Either way, my name is Juniper Woods, and in another place, you were a friend of mine.

[You're just going about your day in Waverly Bay when there's actual peace and quiet. You might find yourself in the central plaza or park, walking slowly through it and just enjoying what you hope won't be a stressful day.

It'll be at that moment that a pink haired woman just rolls out from under one of the benches, blocking your path and just kind of smirking up at you.]


Hey. Hey buddy.

It's quiz time.
strengthinkindness: (Somtimes I'm perfect)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-05-04 08:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Fluttershy nodded.] Mm...she really is. And she's good friends with everyone...

[personal profile] kindergartencop 2015-05-04 10:43 am (UTC)(link)
What? No.

[Peridot is, like with most things, surprised and irritated to find this strange, probably filthy human laying right in her path. Ugh. Of all the things to put up with today.]

Get out of my way.

[Instead of doing the reasonable thing and just stepping over her, she instead nudges her a couple times with her foot.]

Exile | Road Rovers

[personal profile] lambs_jiffy 2015-05-04 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[When he had gone through the hole that was oddly shaped like him, Exile certainly hadn't expected to find himself in a strange temple, or to find some kind of gem on his forehead while rubbing his head. And he definitely didn't expect to find some answers to his questions from the big gem in the center of the temple.

This is probably why curiosity is left for cats.

But it was too late to change it now. All he could really do was explore the rest of the temple and maybe try to see if any of the other Rovers were here as well.]


Comrades? Hunter, Colleen, Blitz, Shag...? Is anyone being here?
