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.

[Gaige, you've completely thrown the stoic bear off his A game. He's actually blushing a little upon hearing her kind voice. Why can't all girls in San Francisco be kind like her? He quickly calms down, regaining his composure somewhat.]
...Oh...Ice Bear was just trying to be helpful.
[He starts stacking the items back into the cart carefully, not wanting to break anything valuable.]
Ice Bear was worried that you might have thought Ice Bear was stealing your items.
no subject
[Once his arms are full she'll try to hug him. Because yes he is a bear, but Gaige is kind of insane when she gets excited.]
You're very helpful! I would have had to double back and get all those if it weren't for you!
no subject
[Ice Bear finishes putting everything in the cart, only to be hugged suddenly by Gaige. His composure has completely gone out the window, as the bear finds himself blushing once more. Holy crap this is new territory for him what's going on. His speech is still very stoic, but it's clear that's he taken back by all of this. In a good way, of course.]
...Ice...Ice Bear is glad that you're happy.
no subject
Nice to meet you Ice Bear! I'm Gaige!
no subject
Pleased to meet you, Gaige. Ice Bear is happy to have met someone nice like you.
...
Ice Bear is curious why you're collecting scrap metal though. [And he points to her cart with one fuzzy paw.]
no subject
I'm like a super genius engineer, and back home I never went anywhere without my trusted buddy DT. But he's not here so I need to make a new one.
no subject
Ice Bear likes the idea of building a robot. Ice Bear accomplished this once as well.
...Would you like Ice Bear to help out?
no subject
...would be...
SO METAL!
[She raises her metal hand to the sky and strikes the universal symbol for rock and roll before she grins brightly]
Check me out universe, just Gaige and her new best buddy Ice Bear building robots! Could that get any cooler? I don't think so!
[She's practically bouncing out of her shoes she's so excited.]
What did your robot do?
no subject
[Ice Bear is still speaking in his usual stoic voice, but he raises one paw in the air as a sign of victory.]
Ice Bear likes Gaige's ideas. Ice Bear can get used to this friendship.
[The bear blinks for a moment, then feels compelled to tell Gaige his own building stories.]
Ice Bear made a clone Ice Bear robot. Robot was very destructive. Ice Bear approved of his destruction for dealing with annoying koalas.
no subject
That is so cool! What are Koalas? What did Ice Bear Bot use to destruct them?
no subject
Koalas are a small fuzzy bear. Ice Bear met one before. Nom Nom. Internet sensation, but Ice Bear thinks he's a butt.
...
Robot Ice Bear showed up and started hugging Nom Nom. Tightly. Ice Bear doesn't know what happened after that.
no subject
I love it!
[Leading Ice Bear into her room, it's set up like a massive work shop with platforms, work benches, some rock and roll posters as well as pictures of her friends, and a wanted poster with Gaige's face on it. The girl is apparently worth $820,000,000,000]
Home sweet home.
[Promptly turning over the wagon and scattering machine parts so she can see what she has to work with.]
This is good...I think this would be a good start.
no subject
[Ice Bear follows Gaige back to her humble abode, immediately finding himself looking around the room curiously. The environment reminds him of a cross between a mechanics garage and a punk rock club basement. It's something he'll have to get used to, since the bear is a clean and organized type.
He stops and looks at the poster with Gaige's bounty written all over it. Just what type of world this this girl come from?]
Ice Bear is curious to know more about where you came from.
