TEST DRIVE - Part 3

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 [community profile] 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.

☆ This post will remain open until it begins to approach 5000 comments! Then a new test-drive post will be made.

☆ 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.

Oh, I got you. I know how that is.

[She'd totally break a window for her baby.... at least she would have, before he turned out to be lying scum!!

...But SONiKA doesn't trust humans that much anymore, especially not so called masters, so she's feeling a little concerned about Clear now.]


Do you live with your master here?

[Does he know?

No, probably not. But it's nice to have his bro back, and maybe it could be like old times. Old times, before the Underground began to go empty.]


I don't have to ketchup on anything, do I?

[Somewhere in the distance, there is a ba-dum tsss.]

[Trixie takes one look at that hopeful smile and begins giggling. It reminds her so much of her old life and how everyone used to look up to her. All those fans that would go to such extreme lengths and beg to see her perform even the simplest of tricks.

Trixie adopts a haughty pose, probably the very one the other Trixie might adopt so often.]

Trixie doesn't normally give out private performances.

[A second or two later, she begins laughing again.]

Ah, the things I used to say back then... You sure you want to know? It's a very, very long story. And I haven't performed for a job in such a long time...

[personal profile] domeinion 2015-11-17 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
So you're afraid of something, but you do it anyway? I guess a lot of people can say the same thing. Not all about being an idol, of course.
domeinion: Alice frustrated (do something for a change)

...Actually, I just thought this was something you did. I mean, that person over there is trying to convert everybody to their religion. Maybe I'm doing it wrong?

Sure, sure! Though it's probably gonna be hard. You go!

[ Sometimes, the vampire has that effect on people. And that's quite a blush! ]

I seem to detect a note of... interest. Would you like to be shown around?

scarlet_devil: ([Adult] Smug)

Naturally.

If I were you, I'd take note of everything this vampire says.

I guess so, eheh. You can say I sent you—

[ And then suddenly, she blinks and laughs, a little embarrassed. ]

Oh, u—um—I didn’t introduce myself, did I?

[ she bows as best she can, with all those groceries still in her arms. ]

I’m Yamamoto Sonico. It’s nice to meet you...!
torya: [soniani] (and decide to give up)

[ blink blink. stare. ]

Ah... um...

[ just give her a moment, that's a lot of information to get in the space of a few seconds ]

Sorry-- um-- w--what was that about 'marbled meat'...?
calystegia: (like. super duper plain.)

[personal profile] calystegia 2015-11-17 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhh... w-well you see, i-it's part of my idol gimmick! Introducing myself as a cow, describing my assets... so I just sort of fell back into it by instinct! Figured "hey, I'm not actually a cow and I don't know if my meat's actually marbled" so it'd be perfect for the lie! But then I realized I can't present that information as untrue: it'd ruin our image! So, um...

My meat's definitely marbled! Most definitely! And I totally sleep off every meal! For realsies!!

[personal profile] geetttdunkedon 2015-11-17 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Some people are big 'ol cheaters and do it with people they know. Not us, though.

Soo… is it the first one?
therealrisette: (Even idols can't be perky all the time)

[personal profile] therealrisette 2015-11-17 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you feel like touching it too?

[Still sounding super nervous here. Also she might be leaning a little into Kanami, because it's a totally normal friend thing to do. There is absolutely no part of her that's comforted by being here with someone bigger than her. Not at all.]

That's weird, isn't it?! Feeling like touching a big kinda creepy glowing gem thing?
geetttdunkedon: (sneeze)

[personal profile] geetttdunkedon 2015-11-17 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh, hey. it's… a human.

Calm down, Sans, the one you were fighting wasn't remotely one. That soul was empty and stolen.]


Well, I've got nothing better to do. You got any ideas?

[ she opens her mouth to say something in response but finds herself just closing it again because. well, there's really no reply to that, is there? but she doesn't just want to leave this poor girl hanging so she'll just latch onto the one part she can formulate a response to -- idol work. ]

Ah, th--that's... that's a really unique image for a group...! Do you have a cute stage name to go with it...?
geetttdunkedon: (snaz)

Re: event

[personal profile] geetttdunkedon 2015-11-17 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright, here goes.

My name's Sans.
I love doing work.
I lived under a mountain.

[Of course he'd be lazy about picking out the truths and a lie.]
calystegia: (happy days)

[personal profile] calystegia 2015-11-17 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[OH THANK GOD SHE'S NOT BEING TREATED LIKE A WEIRDO..... hopefully.........]

Yes, we do! We're called "Kamamin Kitchen"! It was my manager's idea!
torya: [soniani] (send them out)

[personal profile] torya 2015-11-17 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, really...? So it's like a food theme, then...

[ honestly all the talk of cows was making her a little concerned like... was this a bardyard themed idol group...

forcing a smile, though, in an attempt at making things less awkward...! ]


Y--your manager's got a good eye for that kind of thing...! It's a cute kind of theme... what kind of work do you do? Is it mostly singing and dancing or...?

[personal profile] trixupmysleeve 2015-11-17 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Well of course! Before coming here Trixie did not even know that Unicorns were real! And now I find out that not only are you are real but you are...well Trixie. And a space pirate to boot? The possibilities seem endless at this point!

[ It doesn't hurt that the more amazing this Trixie is the more amazing human Trixie feels]
geetttdunkedon: (snaz)

[personal profile] geetttdunkedon 2015-11-17 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[He touches it. There's a short beat of silence as he takes it in. And then, Sans turns back to Griet. Quick recovery time, huh?]

Okay, I touched it.

[sans...]

[Trixie giggles again.]

Just because it's improbable doesn't mean it's impossible. But as you wish, human Trixie.

[And thus began the very long story, beginning with her arriving on the ship and her adventures on it before she actually became the space pirate.]

Yes, nice to meet you. I'm Naomi Kimishima. [She doesn't say much else on it.]
