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.
strengthinkindness: (But what if)

[It's not so much that he's a turtle that gets her attention...well it is, but it's more that he's a talking turtle.

Because she had friends who, while she had never seen them that way, said they were turtles back home.

So it's very carefully, very slowly that she approaches him, softly clearing her throat in hopes of getting his attention.]


U-Um...e-excuse me...?
snappingturtle: (o_o)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-22 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's already been startled by Pinkie Pie, so the sight of another talking pony isn't too big of a shock. The wings however . . .]

What the shell . . .
strengthinkindness: (That might've been me)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-22 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[She ducks her head a bit bashfully, her wings unconsciously tucking her wings in closer to her.]

U-Um...I-I'm sorry, I-I don't mean to trouble you, but...y-you, um...You wouldn't happen to know...Donnie and Mikey...would you?
snappingturtle: (Leo and Kurai eloped!!)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-22 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I—yeah! How do you know them?!
strengthinkindness: (Somtimes I'm perfect)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-22 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[She smiles, looking a little relieved.] O-Oh good...! I thought you'd be one of them, but I just wanted to be sure...

[Alternate versions and what not.]

They're friends of mine...! So...do you know Leatherhead too?

[This one she has to make especially sure. Brothers were one thing, but depending on the time he came from, he might not know Leatherhead yet.]
snappingturtle: (O_O)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-22 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
You even know that guy? How?!
strengthinkindness: (So glad)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-22 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I met them...um...

[Okay, how to explain?]

S-So...there are actually...many different worlds out there...a-and by one way or another we're taken there...H-Here, we were drawn to this place...In other worlds, we can be brought there by a powerful entity...or by a mysterious force...

I-I met them...Donnie, Mikey, Leatherhead...in a different world, where we were all taken...And Donnie and Leatherhead were even brought into another world that I've been to...
snappingturtle: (Can we stab THIS one?)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-22 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
No way . . . They'd have said something if that really happened! Mikey woulda never shut up about it.
strengthinkindness: (When you make a change)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-22 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
N-Not...if they don't remember it...Sometimes, when we're returned to our home worlds...we lose the memories we made in other worlds...

When I was sent home from the Digital World...the world we were all sent to...I lost the memories I had...It's only when I go to other worlds like this that I remember...
snappingturtle: (Is that even possible?)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-22 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
The . . . Digital World? That doesn't make any sense.
strengthinkindness: (Thinking)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Yes...Um...it's like a world inside a...computer...

[That's the word, right?]

There were creatures called Digimon...who were made up of digital information...and even those of us who were brought there were converted to be like that...
snappingturtle: (Suspicious creepers fuckin' everywhere)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
That just sounds like somethin' straight oughta Donnie's dreams.
strengthinkindness: (But that's so typical)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
...even if it was just a dream though...I wouldn't know about it if I didn't know Donnie...
snappingturtle: (Nothing but bullshit.)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah . . . This whole thing is just weird.
strengthinkindness: (Don't wanna say)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods.]

Mm....this is the...third time it's happened to me, and...I'm still not used to it...
snappingturtle: (Well that's interesting)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
[. . . Frowns. It's hard to maintain being angry when an adorable flying pony is being sad in front of him.]

If you're tellin' the truth . . . do you at least get to go home in between?
strengthinkindness: (I'm always lost)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
[She has that affect on people.]

Mm...sometimes...there were times when we've gotten to go home before...

It's...pretty random, though...
snappingturtle: (No I'M the best)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Well . . . I'll find a way outta here! And then everyone can go home.
strengthinkindness: (But you find your strength anyway)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
[She manages a small smile. Donnie always said Raph would be like that.]

Mm...a-and if you...ever need any help...I can do my best too...
snappingturtle: (Well that's interesting)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
. . . Yeah, I'll let you know if I think of anything you can do.

[She nodded.] Okay...just...don't push yourself too hard...

[Since this is Donnie's brother, stubbornness might run in the family.]
