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.

[ There are two very clear options here. Either take what Gary says and use it as a means to be disgustingly pleasant to show he's not bothered at all, or take it and just add to his frustration without thinking things through.

Guess which one he's going to choose? ]


I'm not getting defensive, I just want you out of my way. I have other things to do than listen to a brat like you. [ IV he's like the same age as you shut up. ] You did what I wanted, so scram.

I'm not in your way. The only one in your way is you. If you want to run off and cry then do it. Don't boss me around.

[Like who do you think you are, IV??]

Go on. [Waving him off casually as if he's some little kid.] Run along now! You're no longer entertaining me.

[ He opens his mouth to say 'I was here first', but then promptly shuts it, because even he realizes how juvenile that sounds.

Fuck. Just take a deep breath... Okay. Good. ]


No longer entertaining you? Heh. You'd think otherwise if you knew what I was capable of.

[ With that, he smirks and turns away (maybe a little too dramatically shh) with a hand lifted in the air as if in a wave. ]

Next time we meet, I'll let you have a taste of my fanservice!

[ Always needing to have the final word, there he goes. Or tries. ]
relaxfriend: (you gonna play nice or what)

[Of course Gary is always interested to see what people are capable of. But that's going to have to wait. He's looking forward to really making this guy crack in due time.

For now he'll just stand there smugly with his hands in his pockets, looking absolutely pleased with himself as IV turns to leave.]


I think to be effective that would require someone to give a rat's ass about you.

[He also has no desire to find out what his "fanservice" is. Ew.]
