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.

[His screen lights up, red blocks filling up to form a heart.]
A rather one-of-a-kind one, too, if I do say so myself!
no subject
That. Is so. COOL! What else can you do?!
[She zips around Mettaton, trying look at him from all sides.]
no subject
[The only real thing of importance is a giant on/off switch just beneath the gem on his back. Otherwise, he's a basic, box-y robot on a single wheel with ridiculous noodle arms.]
The miscellaneous things might be a bit too... interruptive. For a setting such as this.
no subject
Hmmmm... Entertain, huh? So do you sing? Dance? Tell jokes?
no subject
Of course, there's the devastating anti-human combat capabilities, too, but who ever needs those?
no subject
no subject
Some people. You know?
no subject
[Because she kind of fights monsters. In fairness they're typically pretty evil where she comes from, but she's willing to keep an open mind here.]
no subject
no subject
[At least she hopes so. It would be really disappointing if this cool robot she just met turned out to actually be a bad guy. Good reason to change the subject!]
Oh man, then I would totally love to see you perform sometime! What's your name, Mr. Robot?
no subject
[Luckily, he only plays a bad guy on television.]
The name is Mettaton, darling! And once I settle in and get performance-ready up here, I guarantee you'll be the first on the guest list!
no subject
... Maybe she should still keep an eye on him. Just in case.]
I'm Star Butterfly, Princess of Mewni! Awww, thanks Mettaton! Oooo, I'll have to go pick out something special to wear then!
no subject
[Namely: wearable basketballs. Don't ask.]
Ah -- but you're royalty, then? An honor to meet you, darling. A shame this form doesn't have lips.
[Namely because he'd kiss her hand if he did. Alas, he just takes her hand in his and shakes it as delicately as a giant robot hand can.]
no subject
You have merchandise?! You didn't mention you were famous!
[Star giggles when Mettaton takes her hand. Lips or no lips she appreciates the gesture!]
That's OK! Luckily, I'VE got them!
[She bends down and gives the robot a small kiss on his screen! He deserves it for being so sweet and gentlemanly!]
no subject
Oh, you're going to make me blush, sweetheart!
-- Ah, yes. I still getting used to surface life. The monsters of the Underground don't have much in terms of entertainment except for me, so yes, I'm quite the celebrity back home~.
no subject
[She reaches down the collar of her dress and in a flash of light, summons a magic wand!]
Though most of the spells aren't working... and I'm stuck in another dimension with no way back to Mewni or the other Earth. That part's not so awesome.
[Star sighs, looking at the wand forlornly.]
no subject
Well, you do at least have that, darling. This 'gem' of mine didn't seem to give me anything I didn't already have -- which is fine by me, since it's gorgeous and perfectly flattering just the same.
no subject
You know what, you're right! I should be grateful! Besides, I'm sure I'll make it back home and see Marco again eventually!
[Star kneels down again to get a closer look at Mettaton's gem.]
Ooooo, no kidding! Your gem is pretty cool! Even if it hasn't given you any magical powers. What's a robot need magic for anyway? You've got... robot stuff! Right?
no subject
[He has no idea what she's talking about now but hey, they're talking about him again!]
Magic is certainly helpful -- I can do a little of it myself -- but that's right! Just rocket boosters and my other form.
no subject

[A mp3 of a drum roll emits from his speakers while components fold over and shift, until --]
2/2
Star, meet
Legs McGeeMettaton EX. He flourishes dramatically.]Tada!! ~♥
no subject
You. Look. A-MAZING!! Those BOOTS!
[She drops to her knees and starts coveting Mettaton EX's bright pink go-go boots. Or are those just part of his legs? Star doesn't know and doesn't care, whispering with envy.]
So fabulous...
no subject
Ah, thank you, darling. This form's energy consumption is still a little excessive so I don't get to show it off as much as I'd like.
