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.

[No...no Trixie must resist...she is never in the wrong...is she?]

B-begone from my sight and think long and hard about your mistakes today! And be thankful that The Great And Powerful Trixie chose to overlook your transgressions!

[Because she's not sure he much longer she can keep balance on two legs AND keep her ego bright and blazing.]

[You're a stubborn one, aren't you? Fine then. Flowey will wilt a little and generally look miserable.]

Okay... I'll just go. Why do I even bother trying anymore when everyone treats me like this...? I'll never have any real friends...

[NOW FEEL GUILTY ALREADY.]

[Oh no...oh he used the F-word. Even Trixie can't deny the allure of Friendship. She knows how important it is, she knows how powerful it can be. She clutches at her arm as though she's been wounded and trembles, her legs giving out finally and sinking to her knees]

Y-yes well...T-trixie is...

[Teeth clenched this actually seems to be causing her pain.]

Trixie is sorry to have upset you...Perhaps she...got carried away.

[And there it is. But Flowey wants t twist the knife just a little bit farther.]

No, it's fine. I'll just leave you alone now.

[Flowey turns to leave. Trixie might be able to see the gem embedded where the receptacle meets the stem.]

[Urgh! This is torture and she can barely focus on stuffing down these feelings of guilt now that they've crept in.]

What more does it take for you to hear Trixie's apology!? Are you truly so pathetic that you shrink away in such a manner even when someone else is wrong?!

[Well other then calling him pathetic that sounded sincere. Twilight would be ashamed of her surely]
your_best_friend: (Wat)

[personal profile] your_best_friend 2015-11-17 09:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, okay, he's done now. Flowey turns back around to face Trixie.]

You... you really mean it?
trixupmysleeve: (I so want this!)

[personal profile] trixupmysleeve 2015-11-17 09:05 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! Oh sweet Celestia yes! Trixie is apologetic for coming off so harshly. She was easily confused by your poor communication skills! Clearly I should have known better.

[And she does in fact, sound like she's finally ooming around to blaming herself. After all isn't she a performer? Shouldn't she be able to read people...or flowers better then this?]

[Hee. This is so amusing to Flowey. He perks up considerably.]

Golly, thanks for the apology!

[...A little bit too perky, but Flowey doesn't care about that.]

Looks like you learned a very valuable lesson there. Do you still want me to help?
trixupmysleeve: (:()

[The true answer is no, she just wants him to go, but she's already this deep she can't really back out now.]

Yes of course, how can you help?

[This entire exchange has been exhausting. She longs for an oat smoothy right about now.]
