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.

[... Ah, what the heck, she's not gonna break it off until he does! Odd looks from other newcomers be darned!]

Well, not like he does! I live in Ponyville, but sometimes I go back to my family's rock farm or with the girls to Canterlot or the Crystal Empire or Appleloosa for adventures and galas and stuff! But he travels all the time in between parties and I don't think he really has a home home like I do, you know?

You're from the future or some other reality, aren't you.

No, I haven't been to other planets. Except this one.

You're not exactly convincing me not to do it.

[ He will, however, find a slightly less high place to jump from. ]
alittlemystery: (Questioning your priorities.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
If pain isn't convincing I dunno what to do for you.
rattlethestars: (Huh... i'm watching you)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Future? [Yeah, because time travel is real, pfft] Not that I know of, but sure. Why the heck not.

Name's Jim, by the way...
freckledninja: (Seriously?)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-03-23 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
What's a gala?

[...THIS JUST RAISES FURTHER QUESTIONS]

You got that [points at the juice] from that? [pointing at the apple now.]

...And you can... consume this?

[He just smiles a little sadly. It totally happened and he's trying to Not think about it.]

Hey.

[Annnnd then the smile shifts a little because no, wait. He can sort of guess why he's here, but Hiro shouldn't? Hiro didn't run after him did he?]

Wait, how are you here?
microbrobotics: (confidence)

[personal profile] microbrobotics 2015-03-23 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
I'll take a little pain if it means figuring out what I got, okay.
alittlemystery: (You're the worst.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
I'm Dipper Pines.
alittlemystery: (. . .)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't describe that kind of fall as a Little pain.
rattlethestars: (Huh?)

[He's watching the older boy, a brow raised at him and that comment.]

You got some idea of where this is that you'd picture it at all?
spontaneouscombustion: (I can see it now!)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
A gala is a HUGE fancy party! The one we went too was kinda stuffy and nobody was really dancing or having fun, but the girls and I still had a lot of fun! AND Rarity made us these BEAUTIFUL fancy dresses to wear! She'd love it here: her special talent is making really pretty clothing with lots of jewels and stuff in it!

But if Twilight ever throws a gala, I'll make sure it's a LOT more fun!
microbrobotics: (tearful silence)

[ No explanations before hugs. That's the rule. Hiro rushes over to his brother and throws his arms around him, hugging tightly like he's scared to let him go. Because he is scared to let him go, now that he's here and apparently not a ghost or a mirage or - oh god. He's going to start hyperventilating if he lets his mind run away with him like this. ]

What? What do you mean? How are you here?

[ Because he sincerely doubts his brother found a hole the way Hiro did. ]
rattlethestars: (Huh... i'm watching you)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, cool. Nice ta meet cha.

[he huffed again and ran a hand over his forehead, over the stone and giving another confused look.] What's with this anyhow?
microbrobotics: (gotta go fast)

[personal profile] microbrobotics 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be fine. I've done way worse back home.
freckledninja: (Can I have ten of those?)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Would she make something for me?

[Bingo! That little note of hopefulness is exactly what he's been waiting for. He's found his in.]

Weeell... [he rubs his chin thoughtfully, shifting his eye around as if making sure nobody was around to hear before leaning a little closer.] I don't really want this getting around, but you strike me as somebody who can keep a secret.

You're talkin' to a real, genuine bonafide not-a-human here.
alittlemystery: (My sister what even.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Not gonna stop you, man.

[He thinks about that - afterlife? - and looks back to the Heart gem. He knows this isn't what he thinks it is.]

... I don't know. Just, not here.
alittlemystery: (. . .)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that happened to me too when I got here.

They give you super powers?
rattlethestars: (Looking over there now...)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
You can say that again...

[Jim mumbled not far from your left, Leo. He too has a blue stone, but it's in the middle of his forehead, and he hasn't seen that it's blue yet, whoops.]

[Also, talking green creature? So not even blinking at that. Seems normal]
spontaneouscombustion: Feel free to use with credit! (Default)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh, definitely! She's made bowties for Spike before, and he's a dragon. I'm sure she could make you something super fancy too!

Earth, it seems. It's not my first time being here. Even if it doesn't really seem to be the same as I remember it.
tadeadshi: (80)

[After he got his info from the Heart gem, he sort of remembers the fire and a hole in there, briefly considered that was him dying like that's just What Happens, but now he's not sure.

Still. Hugs are great. He pulls him close and tight.]


Iiiii [hahaha 'died' that's not coming out of his mouth] ran into the hall and found a hole.
