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.

o7 After this one I need to go to bed but I'll keep going

[Cirno stops and turns, looking slightly confused...and apprehensive]

I guess. It'll be something to do..but why are you helping me? It..It's not a good idea to get close to me any more...I..

[And yeah, clamming up again because she knew better then to think that way. Without the strong voices to remind her that it wasn't true, it was going to take a moment to squash that back once more.]

...It's just better.

Something's... changed. I'm not even sure what, but it's something to do with my gem.

[ She's starting to give half a damn about Cirno and is blaming the gem. ]
frozenmemories: (Timid and Chilled)

[She stares for a moment, as if trying to decide that if she believes Remilia or not. In the end Cirno seems to either shrug it off..or is suddenly distracted by the fact her eyes as starting to well up in tears.]

If you say so..I..I'm just gonna go.

[Yeah..She just wants to go curl up and cry. Try and deal with everything. She reaches up to wipe at her eyes, trying to be a bit sneaky about it.]

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-10-18 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ A pause, and she tries to reach out to Cirno and well... She's never really tried to comfort anyone other than Flandre before. ]

Go where, exactly?
frozenmemories: (Crying)

[personal profile] frozenmemories 2015-10-18 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I...I dunno. Just...somewhere.

[There is a moment where it looks like she wants to just bolt but Cirno stays and tears slowly start rolling down her cheeks. At least she tries to hide her face in her hands.]

I..just want to go back to my family..and find my friend.
scarlet_devil: ([Adult] Neutral)

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-10-18 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Remilia is, frankly, at a loss at what to do here, other than just awkwardly hug Cirno. And kind of hoping someone else could help her out here. ]
frozenmemories: (Apologetic)

[personal profile] frozenmemories 2015-10-18 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sadly, it's just them and Cirno just stands there, quietly crying..although it might be of some note that she slightly leans into the hug. The ex-vampire might not be her sister of best friend..but she's glad someone is there.

It's not very long before she can calm down enough to stop, as she is trying to remind herself to hide how bad she is mentally and emotionally
]

I..I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get upset like that...I'm okay. Thank you though..

[ Well, she figures it's a good thing nobody else is here. No-one that knew her, at least. Can't have people thinking the Scarlet Devil's going soft, right? ]

Hmn. Maybe we'll bump into people we know here if we look around?
frozenmemories: (Innocent)

[personal profile] frozenmemories 2015-10-19 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe. If you want to go alone it's okay.

[Cirno would never tell. That's one thing Remilia can count on.]
scarlet_devil: ([Adult] Into her eyes)

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-10-19 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ She looks around, and decides, with a small shrug, then offered her hand. ]

You can follow me... if you wish.
frozenmemories: (Eh?)

[personal profile] frozenmemories 2015-10-19 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
[There is a moment of her deciding and staring at that offered hand.]

...You really are a lot different then the Remilia I know...I'll come along.

[Although Cirno is unsure about the offered hand, she reaches out but then pulls back, putting her hands behind her for now.]
scarlet_devil: ([Adult] Huh?)

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-10-19 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
How so?

[ Well, in any case, she'll lead the way. ]
frozenmemories: (Thinking)

[personal profile] frozenmemories 2015-10-19 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Going to follow]

You don't seem to be as...indifferent to others as I remember her.
scarlet_devil: ([Adult] Into her eyes)

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-10-19 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
I... may have a weakness to crying children.

[ She's not sure she wants that to be spread around. But anyway, Remi will make her way outside... ]
frozenmemories: (Just here to look cute)

[personal profile] frozenmemories 2015-10-19 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not a child...technically..but if you say so.

[Cirno will quietly follow along, glancing about as she does.]
scarlet_devil: ([Adult] Oh what the fuck.)

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-10-19 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ She then leads Cirno outside, into sunlight, and... Well, she can't really help it, but at first she panics a little. ]

Parasol! I need a... wait. I've lost my weaknesses... it seems...
