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.

At the very least, Pokey doesn't look like he wants anything to do with him. The feeling is definitely mutual, and yet Kafei can't help but keep standing there, watching Pokey's poor attempt to leave.]
There's nothing down that way.
[You stupid moron.
Not that Kafei has any room to talk, but like hell he'd admit it.]
no subject
He looks over at Kafei, barely, as he passes by again.]
Thanks.
[He almost feels bad being this immediately and outright short spoken and dickish towards Kafei in a way that couldn't even begin to be considered an attempt at being playful. Just being an asshole.
But only almost. He wouldn't have minded seeing a familiar face, if he was being honest. That face being Kafei isn't a good start to this adventure, though, as far as he's concerned. Because, in a way, it's just so much of a reminder of how much further and further he's getting from home, from Mayfield, the one place he ever felt he belonged. No reminders of them there, but of someone who drove him crazy back in Horseville? Yeah. He could have that apparently.
Hell. He should have gone ahead and just thrown something at the big stupid dumb gem. Who cares at this point? Maybe it would've gotten pissed off and zapped him somewhere else, maybe someplace a little more tolerable at least.
Still. He stops for a moment, still not having exited the cave, before turning to Kafei again.]
How long have you been here?
no subject
his stupid asshim.Strange enough, it's quite the surprise that Pokey's still bothering to talk to him. From what he gathered, Pokey didn't like talking to him, so why strike up a conversation? Why would he even care about how long he's been here? It's not like he can tell him anymore than that ridiculous Heart thing did.]
Not very long, really.
[So if he's looking for information, he's out of luck.]
no subject
[He is trying to get some bearing on at least a rudimentary timeline. It'd help if he knew if where and when Kafei was from...because.
Well. Okay it's not that helpful in the end, but he wants to know. If the
manchildkid came from the future or something, hell, it'd...be something else Pokey knew.God. He doesn't know why he's asking this crap either. Maybe because there is some weird, awkward sense of comfort in speaking with someone he knows, even if it's someone who hates him.]
no subject
Everyone was preparing for the Gala, last I recall.
[It was a pretty big deal and all, it'd be hard for Pokey to go about not hearing anything on it.]
