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.

[Cautious about touching weird luminescent gems? HA. That's Dipper's deal. Strange things happen all the time in Gravity Falls, sometimes they're weird and crazy, sometimes they're AWESOME and get you a boyband harem or a seat in congress, there's basically no reason not to jump into a hole calling your name all drrrr drrrrrr, right?
Of course not.
And then finding yourself in a magical jewel temple with a sparkly new stone embedded in your head is definitely nothing to worry about, and absolutely something you should get your hands all over. Mabel looks around the place in awe.]
Wooooow.
It's so bedazzly!
no subject
It's right in there. Isn't it.
It's right in the head ladle.
no subject
[Pokes his gem]
Boop!
It's right in the head ladle.
no subject
. . .
[wait you have one too. Pokes her gem]
Why do we have weird stones in our faces?
no subject
I don't know, but isn't it cool? What's your journal say about head stones?
no subject
Absolutely nothing? That's weird. It usually has this stuff in it already.
This must be something even the Author missed.
no subject
Huh. Has this ever happened before? Maybe it's in one of the other journals... But now there's only one thing to do.
Investigate!
[By investigate Mabel means jump up and grab at a floating bubble gem]
no subject
[yeah you. You do that, Mabel.]
...investigate.
So uh. What do you deduce about that thing?
no subject
I deduce that it's just as sparkly as first hypothesised, and-- Whoa!
[The inherent problem with grabbing floating bubbles and attempting to crawl on top of them is that they are, in fact, bubbles. And you definitely should not try to sit on a bubble. Because new scientific discovery? Bubbles pop. And so Mabel goes crashing to the ground, the gem bouncing away now free.
Oops.]
no subject
[this is a great time for GEM INDUCED POWERS to kick in.
Which is to say TELEKINESIS. ...which is to say Mabel hovers an inch above the ground]
UH.
[shit did i do that]
no subject
...UH.
[Looks at Dipper, wait a second, I've seen this before. Staring at his forehead to see if it's glowing.]
Dipper, Dipper, oh my gosh. You have Gideon's bolo tie in your head!
no subject
I have WHAT?!
[...she drops to the ground as he tries to pry the gem out his head]
no subject
[There she goes splat]
no subject
no subject
[Rolling over so she's lying on her front]
Maybe we can find some pliers.
no subject
[not saying no though]
no subject
...Leeeet's find some pliers next to a hospital. Just in case.
no subject
You're going to keep yours?
no subject
[Stands up, patting her own gem]
Gideon doesn't have two amulets...
no subject
no subject
Do you think mine has powers too?
no subject
We have magic power stones now don't we!
no subject
We're totally magical now! We've upgraded! Mystery twins levelled up to Wonder twins.
