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.

[Look Tharja, you could be Walhart and he'd be happy to see you right now. It's hard to tactician with no army.

He's about to greet her when she notes he's... different? He reaches up and fiddle with his hair]


Am I? How so?

[He hasn't even noticed the stone on his hand, set into his Brand just yet]

[man this is awkward]

...Your body.

[good thing that's something she's good at]

??

[He opens his coat slightly, checking for wounds, and turns around as he tries to see his own back.

Sorry Tharja, there's not as much booty as you remember but it is still a fine example of Plegian breeding right there.]


You're going to have to be more specific.
sallya: (say my name)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
[holy fuck

OK SHE MIGHT HAVE WATCHED A LITTLE LONGER THAN NECESSARY BUT GODDAMN

GODDAMN.

but great now you've got her all flustered]


A... A w-woman.

You're not a woman! There! Don't me say it again or I'll curse you...!

A w-woman?!

[He pats at his chest, as if boobs were just going to sprout there.]

I've forgotten a lot, but I'm sure I'd have noticed that...
sallya: (you know who i am)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Definitely a woman.

...Actually. This could be the work of a hex. Even altering your memories of being a woman.
tippingfate: (7)

[personal profile] tippingfate 2015-12-29 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
[honestly he doubts her memories more then his own. But that's a risky statement he's not willing to die for]

But for what benifit? Unless...

[Tharja s so getting eyes narrowed in her direction]

sallya: (you know who i am)

1/2

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Who can say? An elaborate prank maybe.

You and Averesa are the only ones with the skill and ability to get close enough.

[...and maybe Henry. But this didn't have enough head exploding to be him]
sallya: (make a dragon wanna retire man)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't do that. I liked you as a woman.

[a pause]

I like you as a man too.

I like you no matter who you are.

[personal profile] tippingfate 2015-12-29 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ his eyes widen a little and he smiles, nodding]

No, you're right. I believe you.
sallya: (you know who i am)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
Good. Doubt me again and regret it.

[all bluff when it comes to Robin though]

...If you want to change though I could try and cook something up.

If.

[he winces and guestures at the room at large]

Let's not get too hasty. Look around.. doesn't this place look a little like something from the Outrealms? Maybe there's something other then a hex at work here.
sallya: (make a dragon wanna retire man)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. Point taken.

...Separated from the others in the Outrealms then, huh.
tippingfate: (16)

[personal profile] tippingfate 2015-12-29 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
It would explain why I'm different from what you remember as well. I could be from a different timeline, or well... this place does strange things regardless.
sallya: (you know who i am)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
Possibly.

...I still think my hex explanation is just as likely.

[which is her way of saying she does't want to admit she was wrong]
tippingfate: (5)

[personal profile] tippingfate 2015-12-29 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
I can't really argue it without more clues, honestly.

...I'm a little curious about this female me, too.
sallya: (HOT DAMN)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ah yes, there's that familiar dark chuckle]

Well, if you'd like to know her measurements I do have that information.

[because of course she does]

...But I'm afraid I can't share that with you.
tippingfate: (17)

[personal profile] tippingfate 2015-12-29 07:09 am (UTC)(link)
W-well I was more interested in what she's like as a tactician...

[Though she MUST look quite a bit like him for her to know him by sight...]
sallya: (you know who i am)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
[please, she knew you by smell aura

...well and ok, facial features too]


Honestly? Probably the same.

[do you think she actually gives enough of a shit about the actual tactics to be able to tell you that]
tippingfate: (Default)

[personal profile] tippingfate 2015-12-29 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He sighs. Images of playing strategy games and sharing tactics with this other him are a little dashed. But what can you do?]

Still, I'm pretty sure my measurements are very different.
sallya: (HOT DAMN)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
[...

......

.........]


...Well there's one way to find that out, isn't there.

[LET HER SEE THE D]
tippingfate: (4)

[personal profile] tippingfate 2015-12-29 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
...

What's that? I think I hear Chrom calling me, I should probably go...

[RUN AWAY!]
sallya: (saturday night)

[personal profile] sallya 2015-12-29 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
[nice try, but she's already at your side (when did she get there?) and has a grip on the sleeve of your robe]

We are in the Outrealms alone, you know.
