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

You already got somethin' in mind?
1/2
Let's see...
[may as well get the lie out of the way first:] I've never been bitten by a dog, [fuck that dog fuck that case... now truths] Um... I can do simple magic tricks and uh... uh...
[.....]
no subject
[ADACHI NO]
no subject
[ thinking it over... ]
I guess if you'd lie about anythin', it'd be somethin' weird... so, are you lyin' about going to oh my god, you're Adachi-san!
[ SHE KNEW SHE RECOGNIZED YOU FROM SOMEWHERE ]
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE IN JAIL!
no subject
[OH FUCK WHO THE FUCK IS THIS HE RECOGNIZED HER FROM SOMEWHERE BUT WHO THE FUCK]
D-Do I know you or something...?!
no subject
[ busy getting BEAT THE FUCK UP ]
R--remember Sho-kun? You remember him, right?
no subject
Y-Yeah but...
[and then it clicks]
--Oh! You're that axe girl!
no subject
it was the axe that stuck in your mind and not everything else. really, adachi. actually to be honest that makes her kind of glad that he said 'axe girl' and not 'that robot' or something... ]
Y--yeah! I ain't seen you since Sho-kun was done--
[ pounds her fist into the palm of her hand ]
-- an' Elizabeth zapped everyone outta there-- where'd ya end up?
no subject
Uhhh... in the TV world? With Yu-kun? [and Clockwork Orange wannabe]
And then I crawled into one of the TV portals and made it back to jail.
no subject
[ furrowing her brow a bit... ]
She musta sent you a little further away! Like, if you needed to get back ta jail, I bet she sent you to the TV that'd take you there!
[ just... chattering away without considering that he might not have a clue what she's talking about ]
no subject
Uhhh... sure.
[no seriously who the fuck is Elizabeth, also you weren't there]
Guess those are kinda crummy truths and lies then, huh.
no subject
... Is it gonna happen right away? D'you feel any different?
[ PEERING AT HIM.CURIOUSLY... ]
no subject
Maybe it doesn't work until you figure out which one's the lie?
no subject
[ going quiet and thinking... ]
Well, I know you've been to jail, so it ain't that...
Maybe the magic tricks thing? You don't look like a magician... You ain't got a hat or nothin'.
[ she may have seen a terrible magician show on TV at some point. May have. ]
no subject
Wro~ng! I'm actually pretty good at magic tricks, I'll show you sometime!
But nah, it was the dog one. I got bit once on a case. Haven't liked them since.
no subject
[ she absolutely is imagining him in a cartoon wizard's get up right now ]
Dogs are nice, though! If you're nice to 'em, I mean. All they wanna do is play and get tummy rubs...
[ ... She misses Snowy :< ]
