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.

Protag ahoy!
[And TADA! It's a pink, talking pony with a VERY pink, VERY curly mane bounding up to him! And a blue, balloon-shaped stone in her chest, but that's not TOO noticeable, right?]
Hi, there!
Helloooooooo
Oh, hi! Are you from around here? ...Wherever here is?
Re: Helloooooooo
Nnnope! I've been here- and "here" is in Waverly Bay, by the way- for a teensy WENNSY bit over three weeks! I'm from Ponyville, which is back in Equestria!
no subject
Huh...I've never even heard of Waverly Bay or Equestria. Could you tell me about them?
[And before he forgets his manners any more, he'll pull his brain back in enough to remember he was supposed to actually introduce himself to new people.]
Oh yeah! Right. I'm Steven Universe, it's really nice to meet you!
no subject
I'm Pinkie Pie! Nice to meet you, Steven! [Then her face lights up even more.] WAAAAIIIIT a minute, are you Connie's Steven?!
no subject
[If Pinkie Pie was Connie's friend, that meant that Pinkie Pie was automatically an awesome person! Cause that's just how things worked.]
I am Connie's Steven! Or...a Steven that Connie knows. Maybe she knows other Stevens?
[That's...gonna get a head scratching from him because heck if he knows what Connie does when they're not hanging out.]
no subject
[Oh, yeah, there IS that blue piece of indicolite stuck in the pony's chest, isn't there?]
no subject
[Because he was sure that wasn't the Gem Homeworld, but maybe just a planet under Gem control? Who knew, but it sounded cool enough to him if it was full of people like Pinkie Pie.]
no subject
no subject
The Crystal Gems are super awesome alien space warriors who've sworn to defend earth and beat up the bad guys and protect humanity!
[That is literally ALL the pride you're hearing right now Pinkie. All of it.]
no subject
Oh, wow, that sounds so cool~! And a lot like what the regular gems have been doing here! Oh, so does that mean Pearl and Lapis are Crystal Gems too? Or do you know them?
no subject
[Well that was good news. In fact that was great news! Pearl he figured would probably have at the very least been here soon after him, but he wasn't sure if he'd ever see Lapis again!]
Oh, oh! Do you know where they are? I gotta let 'em know I'm here!
no subject
no subject
[Because if his name was important enough to pause at, then he must be totally important right?]
no subject
[Nope. Nope nope nope.]
no subject
[Poor, poor, innocent Steven. You know not what you're trying to get yourself into.]
no subject
Sure! Buuuut only if Lapis is there, though. He's... honestly not too nice. But Lapis seems to like him and I don't know her well enough to try and stop her sooo... just be careful around him, okay?
