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.

"Well...as sure as I can be, since I don't...know what you mean by 'country'? And...AZ...he kind of...broke the laws of life and death, so...'immortal' isn't the right word for it, I guess. It's more...'no matter what happens, he can never die'."

Amelie's disposition gets more and more downcast as she speaks; after she finishes speaking she's almost huddled in on herself.
fusilli: (Sadface)

[Oh. Oh, no. He made a girl upset. It doesn't matter if she's underage, and it wouldn't matter if she wasn't as cute as she is; making any girl upset is the number one thing he shouldn't ever do! It was just awful!

Veneziano looks a bit unsure, hovering by Amelie slightly, shifting from foot to foot.]


Vee...I, I'm sorry, signorina, I didn't mean to make you sad...dying is a sad thing, but not dying is also sad, and...I-I really didn't mean to...we can stop talking about it if you want?

Amelie nods - she has a lot of scary, confusing feelings about what happened to AZ, and she'd like to put them in a box and hide from them for a good long while.

Like the rest of her life.

"um...The lie is that I inherited my title? In Kalos, titles are something you earn..."
fusilli: (Ve...?)

[personal profile] fusilli 2015-06-01 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
O-Oh. Well, that's alright, you know? Not everything is inherited, ve...

Um, where I'm from, there are people like me, and we are countries. We represent the land and the people...and a lot of us have lived a really long time...

Amelie closes her eyes.

"AZ...definitely isn't a country, then."

A pause as she reviews his statements.

"...And I actually am the Grand Duchess; I earned my title fair and square!"
fusilli: (Ssssshoot!)

[personal profile] fusilli 2015-06-01 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay then.

[Obviously this only means that, wherever this girl is from, she just hasn't met her country yet.]

- Oh!

[He quickly makes to bow, though. Gotta show respect!]

Ve, I'm really, really, really sorry, Signorina - or should I call you Grand Duchess??

"Amelie is fine - that's my name."
fusilli: (Of course!)

[personal profile] fusilli 2015-06-01 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh! Amelie is a pretty name!

[A pretty name for a pretty girl!]

My name is Italy! Ve, but my fratello is Italy too, so everyone calls me Veneziano.

Amelie manages a smile.

"Enchanté, Monsieur Veneziano."
