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.

Mystery | Mystery Skulls Animated - Ghost
Hey, uh... if you see a girl with blue hair and purple glasses, a blonde guy with a robot arm, or a big dude with purple hair and a vest, can you let me know?
[... or the fact that he can talk. That's cool too.]
Thanks.
no subject
[Hi Mystery. Guess who didn't hear you talking to that other person just now and only saw DOG, DOGS ARE GREAT. Billy doesn't do too well with most animals, sure, but DOGGY. Commence getting in your space and unsolicited, excitable petting.]
Whosagooddoggy?? I bet it's you, yesyouare!
no subject
Do you mind? Personal space, buddy! [ESPECIALLY WITH STRANGERS. If he was around people he knew then he could accept that but... in a foreign place under strange circumstances? Noooo touching.]
no subject
...wait. Diiiiid you just talk?
[Someone give him a gold star.]
no subject
Also, what, "labrodor"? I'm at least a "shibro inu". Come on.
no subject
[Congrats Mystery, you've dispelled any freaking out he might have done over a talking dog by bro punning back at him. Billy is now your best friend good luck with that.]
Oh hey! And you've got one of those gem thingies too! Pretty sweet bling, huh?
no subject
At that, he looks down at the sunstone, pawing at it.] "Bling". Yeah. It's, uh... it's certainly something. [He has no idea how he feels about the whole process. At least it mostly matches his overall color scheme.]
no subject
[He settles a bit after his momentary celebration, reaching up to tap at the blue gem on his throat.]
I bet the ladies will be all over this, too! I look exotic! About time I changed up my image a bit anyway, y'know what I mean?
no subject
[Pure speculation. Also, he's stalling for... no good reason. Not that it matters because Billy just blows right past that conversation point on his own.]
no subject
[JUST TOTALLY CASUALLY. YUP SURE WAS A GHOST. COMPLETELY NORMAL OCCURRENCE, RIGHT?]
I dunno, I feel pretty all right! Kinda miss being able to fly and stuff, but eh, whatever, I'm awesome either way!
[Truth be told, Billy would really only flip out if he lost his ability to sing or something.
...or his access to smooth peanut butter. They're about equally important.]
no subject
Y'know, considering some of the other powers some other people have gotten, I wouldn't be surprised if you could end up flying. Again.

no subject
[Though those are some pretty interesting descriptions. He doubts he'll have any trouble noticing if does to run into them.]
Where can I find ya if I happen to bump into 'em?
[Not that a talking dog with spiky red and black hair would be hard to spot either. Still, compared to the usual, lately he's a little lacking in the "always knowing where someone is at all times" department.]
no subject
[Though... something about this new guy rubs Mystery way the wrong way. He's not outwardly showing it, but alarm bells are warming up in his head.]
no subject
Good point! Then I'll make sure to look and ask around for ya!
You know, it might be easier if I knew the names of your friends!
no subject
And Lewis... might or might not be a skele-ghost. Just... heads up. [Depends on exactly when he came through his hole. If he ever comes at all.]
Re: Mystery | Mystery Skulls Animated - Ghost
<Sure thing, Comrade. And who should I tell them is looking for them?>
[Cosmo doesn't even bat an eye at the talking canine before him. He's seen enough weird stuff in space that another talking dog doesn't even register as something strange to him.
Plus, y'know. He's a dog too.]
no subject
Uh... Mystery. That's... wait, should I talk, or think, or... [He's not sure how this particular interaction is supposed to work.]
no subject
<Either or. Cosmo has working ears, in addition to telepathy.>
[If Mystery can talk, Cosmo sees no reason not to flaunt it.]
no subject
[Mystery. Mystery. It's weird that you're having any conversation at all.]
no subject
Sure. Uh. They gonna be looking for you, maybe? Should there be a direction I point them in, or something?
[He lifts a hand to the back of his head and scratches it, giving the dog an awkward smile.]
no subject
[Sure, the temple is technically where he's "living" but he likes roaming around.]
no subject
You got a name? I'm Bran. Not a flake, either. [With the tone of one who's heard that joke a bit too much in his lifetime.]
If I see your people, I'll do you a solid and get them to you. If you find 'em first, introduce me? [Because why not. Knowing more people here couldn't be a bad thing.]
no subject
Hey! Blue hair, purple hair, and a robot arm? I'll try and keep an eye out.
no subject
Hey, thanks. It's a slim chance that they're even here, but if they are, I'd love to know.
no subject
Believe me, I understand. I'm still hoping some of my friends will show up too. Think you could keep an eye out for a girl with long black hair and a red headband? [She lifts one hand off her leg, as if to reach out and start petting him, but she stops herself before she does. Teddie was always kind of weird about who he let pet him, so maybe Mystery would be the same way?]
