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 forcosmographia, 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.

So. If I were a room, where would I be?

[She hops up onto the platform and the Door reacts to her gem.]
Ooooooh, my forehead rock is glowing! Aw man, this would be awesome at parties!
[And the door opens! To Star's room, but it's a room nonetheless. If blank.]
no subject
[Time to step through the door!]
no subject
[Star steps in, too!]
Now we need... privacy.
[The door to the outside closes and suddenly they're in Star's room! It's very big, and has a lot of stars going up to little half-balconies and things, but there aren't even any windows! Very private!]
no subject
Okay. I guess... I guess I should take my jumper off.
[So she starts to pull it over her head. Wow, this is awkward. Even if the Western girl with the wand is a girl, she's still a stranger.]
no subject
[Well, except her, but... it hasn't exactly occurred to her that that might be an issue, oops.]
no subject
The gem in question is not on the back of Akane's legs or indeed anywhere now bared by the missing jumper--although there seems to be something a little different about how her white blouse lies on the small of her back than it does elsewhere.]

no subject
Do you see anything yet?
no subject
[She examines Akane's back.]
Just pull up your shirt in the back? I think it's back here. On your back.

no subject
[She probably shouldn't be surprised, given what her name means.]
I'm going to put my uniform back on, then.
[That is a very inconvenient place for a magic space rock.]
no subject
[So is slightly off-center in the forehead for most people, to be fair.]
no subject
Thanks. I appreciate it.
[It's at this point Akane realizes she never introduced herself.]
I'm Akane. Akane Tendo. [Or at least Star would hear it that way. She's actually saying it in the other order.]

no subject
[Where even is Mewni? Is that somewhere in Europe?]
Pleased to meet you, Star?
no subject
no subject
So where's Mewni, anyway? Is it by England? France? Germany? [Uh, what are some other European countries?] Australia? [She's not entirely sure she got that one right.]
no subject
Mewni's in another dimension!
no subject
[Okay. Technically she was from another dimension now. But still...]
The heartstone's taking people from multiple dimensions?
