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 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.
☆ 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.
Clearly, you’ll just have to make the best of it.

Re: C
[Sunset knows there's no fighting her by now, so she'll just do as she's told, emerging with a little smile.]
I think I was starting to miss this.
Re: C
[She paused and leaned over before checking Sunset's shoulders with a measuring tape.] Oh dear, it's just what I thought. You went up a quarter of an inch on your shoulders. More muscle definition by the look of it.
These will simply not do!
[And Rarity tableflipped the entire clothing line into non-existence as she pulled out a new rack of cloth.] Really darling if you insist on training your body, you could have at least told me before I started fitting you for the clothing for this year!
no subject
I didn't really mean to! It's just...life here's a little weird. We're kind of like part-time superheroes. And there's a lot of dancing. You'll see.
no subject
Oooh I feel inspiration coming on!
[Throwing cloth aside, she held up a roll.] TADAH! What do you think?
[It was a flame patterned one, in muted colors but Rarity stretched it.] It's made of some kind of space age material I haven't identified but created a while ago! I think I got the idea by watching those funny sentai shows that Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie makes us watch.
And no, it isn't spandex. Heaven forbid you start throwing fire everywhere and melt it into your skin!
no subject
I'm sure it'll be gorgeous. With you it always is.
no subject
Just please promise me to NEVER rip your clothing off to get down to the layer. A ninja toss will suffice.
no subject
no subject
[Putting needle to thread, Rarity began working on Sunset's outfit.] I refuse to let my friends go out unprotected. I might have offensive powers, but as you know I thrive behind the sewing machine!
no subject
I know, Rarity, I know...so you know your gem power already?
no subject
[Translation, she whined about not having her supply of cloth before a few rolls poofed into existence in front of her.]
It seems I don't have an upper limit. Not surprising because it isn't offensive.
no subject
[Sunset's impressed, and pleased. She'll have to tell her about a certain plan with a certain friend of theirs later...]
Though you could use it offensively if you wanted to. If it's really unlimited, you could smother a monster.
no subject
[Rarity sighed.] As much as I don't like the idea of fighting, Sunset, I do appreciate the thought of you and the others looking out for me.
no subject
Not that I'd let myself forget.
no subject
We don't forget either, but we forgive. These people have seen the true you. And never take that for granted, because they are all lovely people.
Well... the adults need to learn a thing or two but that's besides the point.
[And swing and a miss with the backhanded comment.]
no subject
What happened?
no subject
I don't know, it's something about some of them that make me uncomfortable. Call it a lady's instinct, but I'm worried they might be those irresponsible people we warn about.
Nothing dangerous, but as it were? I would trust several, like Steven's parents of course but I worry about those in charge as it were.
[Rarity shrugged a little as she palmed her cheek in thought.] I wish not to speak ill of them, but something about some people here worry me. Call it nerves.
no subject
[She shook her head.]
But don't worry. We're all strong, and you'll find more good than bad.
no subject
Thank you Sunset. Now come, try on your new super suit!
[It's a surprisingly tough looking suit, all leather-like material with a jacket that could be zipped open and shut, and a bodysuit made of that outfit. There was no helmet, not yet but there were subtle flame patterns slid into the suit which could be seen with the shifting of the light.]
I took inspiration from that show Fluttershy was watching a few weeks ago, um... Go-Bus I think it was?
no subject
[Sunset changes as quickly as she can and re-emerges, looking content as she smooths down the front of her outfit.]
...you know? It's perfect. I could really get out there and help like this.
no subject
[Rarity is doing her little eeeee expression as she's grinning widely.]
