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.

W-woah, Steven! Dude, what's going on? I-
[She pauses, letting her head fall back against the Temple floor so she can look up at the holes again upsidedown.]
...I've never seen this place before.
OMG Sorry for taking so long, life happened ;w;
[Steven got off his fun mom and helped her up, gesturing to the temple as he did so.]
I guess this is some kind of Gem Temple or something. Pearl doesn't seem to know anything about it though...maybe Garnet does?
[Because when all else failed, ask Garnet right?]
It's no problem!
Garnet! Where is she, is she here?
[If Pearl doesn't know anything, Garnet would. Of course, she hasn't had any luck finding either of them yet.]
no subject
[He hadn't seen her and he knew Garnet well enough to know that she definitely wasn't hiding or anything. Garnet wouldn't hide from anything!]
But I'm sure she'll show up! And now that you're here, things are already looking better!!
[He's just going to get his hug on right now because boy he's missed you Amethyst.]
no subject
Well, what are we waiting for, then? Obviously, we need to go look for her! Who knows, knowing Garnet she could be at the bottom of the ocean or something.
no subject
[And oh boy does he sound excited about that. That excitement quickly fades though.]
No sign of Jasper though...I'm not sure if I should be happy or scared...
no subject
no subject
[Can you see how uncomfortable he looks right now? Jasper still gives him nightmares.]
no subject
Okay, so...it's me, you, Pearl, Lapis. Who else?
no subject
[Steven's too young and inexperienced to understand the gravity of what he'd just said, so he sounds SUPER excited about it.]
no subject
[She runs a hand slowly through her hair, looking back at the wall of people-shaped crevices.]
You...don't know exactly how many others are there, do you Steven?
no subject
[Because that totally helped!]
no subject
Well that's ten too many. C'mon Steven- can you take me to wherever Pearl is?
no subject
[Just follow Steven! ...No wait not that way, this way! Okay, now follow Steven!!]
no subject
[She sighs, folding her hands behind her head as they walk.]
How's she taking all this, anyway?
no subject
[And that bummed Steven out because he had no idea how to go about cheering her up.]
no subject
no subject
[Because that's not even a LITTLE bit dangerous!]
no subject
[She will dive in headfirst, don't think she won't.]

[Making things more
dangerousfun was Amethyst's forte!]no subject
