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.

B-But...you cut off your head, all of your heads and it was like WOOSH and you and Lady Ragyo was like "Cast off your body" And you merged like sploosh! And splorch and some swoop! And then off into space where Ryuko finally defeated you both or...was it just one of you...

[Naturally in her typical fashion she explains this with frantic gesturing, complete with choking herself to indicate head cutting off, jazz hands, a sort of...mid air swimming motion? And then jumping up on a chair and into the air to indicate flying into space where she swings wildly a few times imitating Ryuko's fighting style. Then gravity kicks in and she crashes to the ground]

But here you are laughing and smiling and being rude and not dead and...oh your hands!

[Here Mako reaches out to take one of Nui's hands and inspect it closely, getting out a pair of glasses from...somewhere to study them carefully]

[Even Nui has to sort of... blink in surprise by the end of that. And now she's tOUCHING HER HANDS DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH HER HANDS ARE WORTH THEY'RE WORTH MORE THAN THE LIVES OF A MILLION OF YOU-

No. Calm. Cheer, even! After all, her hands are perfectly fine.]


Those sure are my hands, yep! But... I don't remember any of that stuff you said. I think I'd remember cutting my head off, silly!
fromnostartojostar: (Objection!)

[personal profile] fromnostartojostar 2015-11-01 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Well at least she's being gentle with the one she's inspecting. Yep! It's not some kind of scary claw or cheap plastic fake hand that's for sure]

Are you sure?

[Leaning closer to her face now looking her in the eyes eye.]

After all if you cut off your head then your brain would go with it along with all your memories wouldn't it!?

If I cut off my head I would probably die! And I won't say that nobody wants that, but I sure don't!

[We're leaning in towards each other now, huh? Okay~]

I remember a lot of things, don't worry!
fromnostartojostar: (Pondering?)

[personal profile] fromnostartojostar 2015-11-01 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh I'm not worried! Oh I mean I am worried about you but not about that...I mean more about you are here and not there and there's no Ryuko or Lady Satsuki or her mom or the Academy or anyone really yet just you here and me here and the other gems.

[Oh and she's still holding your hand. She drops it sheepishly]

Not worried about what you remember, but what do you remember?
heartsfibers: (08)

[personal profile] heartsfibers 2015-11-01 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Other gems? Oh, like this?

[She lifts her eyepatch and... yep, that's a bright orange gemstone there. An orange diamond, even!]

But hm... I remember up to where Ryuko went off to kill you guys on your boat! Ah... [Look, she's even blushing. Her... well, it wasn't her first kiss, but still~!]
fromnostartojostar: (LOL!)

[personal profile] fromnostartojostar 2015-11-01 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oooo that looks painful! Can you see out of it?

[She's poking that diamond for good measure, then getting flustered as Nui brings up that particular little memory]

Ara...w-well I Remember what happened after that! How we came together and beat you guys, and how Ryuko saved the world and everything was happy again and we all had to leave because the Academy was closed! And I got to go on a date with Ryuko and Lady Satsuki!

If I could I wouldn't need the eyepatch, silly! But it doesn't hurt.

Huh. Whatever you say, I guess! It's not like I remember that, and the ending seems a liiiiitle teensy bit too convenient for someone like you, but like I said - I don't remember!

[She laughs happily, at least Nui isn't mad she lost]

Have you figured out what your gem does? They're supposed to give us MAGIC POWERS! Isn't that so cool? Mines right here!

[She lifts up her shirt to show a peach colored egg shaped stone where her belly button should be.]
