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.

I've read stories about them...but I've never actually met a youkai before.
no subject
[Friendship revoked.
Just kidding, could you imagine? That just means Komasan has to be the best youkai representative he can be. Despite his, um, Komasanness, Kaneki probably got one of the better ones...]
Were they at least good stories, zura?
no subject
They were. I wish I had some of them here, but I don't have very many books right now.
no subject
Oh, I see... It sounds like you should find a library, zura!
[Of course, they don't have libraries at sea, so a pirate may not know about those. THEY ARE A PLACE. WITH MANY BOOKS.]
no subject
Mmm...that would be nice, if there were one.
[And if there were, he'd never leave.]
I'm just working on making my own, for now. Just a few books at a time.
no subject
And I will help you write some books, zura! It'll go a lot faster if there's more than one person making them, zura.
no subject
Oh, well...I hadn't thought of making my own...
[He looks back over at Komasan after standing up to put back an armful of apples and oranges he'd collected.]
That's nice of you, but I wouldn't want to bother you with something like that. I've already made a bit of a mess of your day already.
no subject
[Go ahead and guess who didn't catch who caused all those fruits to spill. Go on, guess. As far as Komasan is concerned, Kaneki is a hero.]
And writing books is fun, it wouldn't be a bother at all, zura!
no subject
Ah, well...I guess I can't stop you, if you really want to...I'm sorry for bumping into you like that, though.
[So much for being the hero, um.]
My name is Ken Kaneki, by the way.
no subject
You don't have to be sorry, I barely felt a thing, zura!
[Compared to the fruit, anyway.]
My name is Komasan, it's very nice to meet you, zura!
no subject
[Hm. Komasan-san sounds like a mouthful, but youkai or not, he needs to be polite at least. Especially since he beaned the poor guy with so many fruits just now.]
...can I call you Koma-san for short?
no subject
Eh...It doesn't sound any shorter to me, zura.
no subject
Well...I would be calling you Komasan-san, otherwise.
