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.

HAS IT BEEN THAT LONG?

[when WAS the last time he saw flowey? Well, there was that whole wacky battle thing where all their souls got ganked or. something. Maybe?? It's all pretty fuzzy to Papyrus to be honest and Flowey seems to be himself NOW so there's no problem, right?]

Who actually knows? I haven't been keeping track of time in the ruins...
strawberry_roll: (Oooohhh... 'kay.)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2015-10-02 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh? What're you going to make?

*Asks the girl who looks rather like a large, flying strawberry. That may not be what she actually is, but it's an easy mistake to make...*

BECAUSE IT'S BORING THERE. WHY DO YOU LIVE IN THE BORING PLACE?

{That is perfectly normal and acceptable when you come from monster land. Papyrus has met a few lovely vegetoids in his day after all!]

I AM GOING TO MAKE SPAGHETTI! MY FINEST RECIPE!

[and after only a second of thought, points at Ichigo]

AND YOU WILL EAT THE SPAGHETTI!
strawberry_roll: (...What?)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2015-10-02 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
*...Well. She wasn't expecting that.*

......Um. O-okay...?

*Seriously, what's she supposed to say to that?*
coolskeleton: (OH HUMAN YOU DO CARE)

[personal profile] coolskeleton 2015-10-02 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[yes!!! another friend has been made!!]

TONIGHT WE SHALL ALL DINE IN MY MAGIC ROOM. YOU. MYSELF, THE GREAT PAPYRUS. MY BROTHER IF HE IS NOT BEING LAZY. THE HUMAN. POSSIBLY OTHER HUMANS.
strawberry_roll: (Hovering here)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2015-10-02 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
...Papyrus, huh... I'm Ichigo! From the Great Cosmos~!

*Okay, she can roll with this. Maybe.*

So, your brother's here, too? That's nice. And, um... which human do you mean, exactly...?

Someone needed to tend to the flowers there.

THE VERY SMALL ONE IN THE STRIPES.

[gestures to a child's height]

A LOVER OF PUZZLES, SPAGHETTI, AND CONTINUING FORWARD TO REACH THEIR DREAMS.

THEY SHOULD LEARN TO TALK LIKE YOU DO.
strawberry_roll: (...What?)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2015-10-02 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh... You mean Frisk...?

...They'll never be able to.

[Alphys won't do that type of stuff anymore.]
coolskeleton: (DID I DO THAT??)

[personal profile] coolskeleton 2015-10-02 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
YES. THE HUMAN WHOSE NAME I TOTALLY DID NOT FORGET AGAIN.

FRISK.
coolskeleton: (NYEHEHEHEHEH)

[personal profile] coolskeleton 2015-10-02 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
THEY JUST NEED TO TRY HARDER LIKE YOU DID.
strawberry_roll: (Infodump GO!)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2015-10-02 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
...Right.

You know, there's a lot more humans around here than... what it sounds like you're used to, so... Well, some of them might get offended if you just call them that. Or confused.

*That's not even really getting into the fact that technically, most of them are gems now. Or at least gem hybrids. But that only applies to everyone the Heart called in, and she's already starting to get the impression that bringing that up won't help. At all. Better to keep things simple, right?*

[personal profile] coolskeleton 2015-10-02 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I WILL REMEMBER ALL THE NAMES! HUMANS COME IN A VARIETY OF SHAPES AND SIZES. JUST LIKE SKELETONS.

YOU ARE NOT A HUMAN THOUGH!
your_best_friend: (Worried)

[personal profile] your_best_friend 2015-10-02 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Papyrus, please...

...

I'm unique... I...

I used to... I used to be Asriel.

I don't know how, but I'm a flower now.

[Best to let Alphys explain everything.]
coolskeleton: (WHATEVER)

[personal profile] coolskeleton 2015-10-02 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
. . .

. . .

BUT ASRIEL IS SO MUCH TALLER.
strawberry_roll: (Hovering here)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2015-10-02 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
...No, I'm not. I'm... Well, I guess you could just call me a child of the Great Cosmos.

...Or the Princess of All Strawberries, if you prefer titles.

*After all, he called himself 'The Great Papyrus', didn't he...?*
your_best_friend: (Wat)

[personal profile] your_best_friend 2015-10-02 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
No he's n-

...Wait, you remember that fight?
coolskeleton: (WHATEVER)

[personal profile] coolskeleton 2015-10-02 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
NO? YES?

I REMEMBER MANY BRIGHT AND BLINDING COLORS AND HUGS. LIKE A WEIRD DREAM.
coolskeleton: (NYEHEHEHEHEH)

PRINCESS STRAWBERRY! DO STRAWBERRIES GO WELL WITH SPAGHETTI?
your_best_friend: (Wat)

[personal profile] your_best_friend 2015-10-02 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
...

Just imagine Asriel as big as Frisk. Or me. That's how I used to be before...

...

Stuff happened.

...Not... by themselves? I mean, they could go into a side-salad or a dessert, but...
