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.

[Gem Temple? Waverly Bay? Those aren't locations he recognizes and he's about to comment, but then-]

[He jerks back, like he's been physically hit. A hand moves to grip the jacket.]


...that's not a very funny joke.

It's not a joke.

*Moving back herself, she waves a hand towards the giant floating gem.* You see that big crystal, over there? That's the Heart. It brought you here. Just like it brought him here, too.

...You can touch it, if you want. Give it a chance to explain itself.
sparereset: (Desperate hope)

When someone calls you out on a joke, you have to admit it's a joke! It's one of the rules! [What rules, who even made rules. He probably did.]

[But while he's saying this, he does go to touch the gem because why not, this can't go wrong. Even if he's still looking for a human.]
Really, it's quite rude to insist it's not a joke, especially when it's so tast-

[Oh....oh wait a minute, that is a lot of information there.]

[Which is...weird and confusing, but one thing is popping out to him.]

[You may have died before coming here, but you won't be here.]

[The words died in his mouth, his eyes widening, because there's a lot to be confused about, but that part, he can understand. He can see what that means, especially when he's never met this monster, even though they know Sans.]

[Was...was it possible...?]

[He wants to believe. He so desperately wants to believe, but today, it had been hard. It had been harder than it's ever been in his LIFE to believe that things could go right, that they could be okay.]

[There might be some tears, and the shock turns into what can only be called desperate hope, his hand gripping at the coat.]


Sans.....

Is Sans...

Really here? You have seen him recently?
strawberry_roll: (Smile brighter than the stars~☆)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2016-01-11 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. He helped me cover the gardens during the big storm a couple weeks ago. An' he's been hopin' you'd show up!
sparereset: (Desperate hope)

[personal profile] sparereset 2016-01-11 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Gardens? Weeks? But how could he have-

[He's frowning, looking at the gem.]

There's...time differences?
strawberry_roll: (Infodump GO!)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2016-01-11 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Sorry, there's a LOT that's kinda weird 'bout all'a this... Like, sometimes the Heart pulls people from different universes, or the same 'verse, but different times... an' it's not really good at clarifying stuff.
sparereset: (Desperate hope)

[personal profile] sparereset 2016-01-11 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[That is a lot that is confusing and it's added to the pile of OTHER confusing stuff he's still trying to sort through.]

But it's Sans, right? He is a short skeleton, with the worst sense of humor, but he is also the most supportive lazybones to ever exist. He has a c....he has a coat like this? [He tugs at the coat he's wearing.]

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2016-01-11 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
*She nods, smiling.*

Uh-huh. An' he asked me... He wanted me to keep an eye out, just in case you ever showed up.
sparereset: (distress)

[personal profile] sparereset 2016-01-11 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sans]

[SANS SANS SANS SANS SANS]

[He's grabbing Ichigo by the shoulders and pulling the other up to shoulder level and very close]

W-where is he?! Where's my brother?!
strawberry_roll: (Dramatic Zoom-In!)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2016-01-11 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
*Whoa, that's a jolt. Especially since she's so little.*

I-I don't know where he's at right now, but I can sh-show you around...? Maybe go check his room?
sparereset: (distress)

[personal profile] sparereset 2016-01-11 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
His room! He sleeps in his bed sometimes.

[He never expected to see his brother again. Monsters don't come back. When they die, they die. The only way that would change was...was if what was said about the Human was true.]

[But he might not have remembered anything then.]

[But he could see Sans again. He could see his brother.]
strawberry_roll: (Infodump GO!)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2016-01-11 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay. I'll show you where our rooms are, then. We won't be able to get in if he's not there to let us in, but we can wait... that's okay, right?
sparereset: (Oh dear)

[personal profile] sparereset 2016-01-11 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Whatever we have to, I am very patient, it is one of my many skills! [This is a lie, Papyrus is not good at patience at all.]
strawberry_roll: (Hovering here)

[personal profile] strawberry_roll 2016-01-11 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright...

*As she floats along, leading the way, she looks back up at him.*

By the way, I'm Ichigo! An' I'm from the Great Cosmos. It's nice to finally meet you, Papyrus!
sparereset: (Oh dear)

[personal profile] sparereset 2016-01-11 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm? Oh! Yes, yes, I am sure it is a pleasure to meet the Great Papyrus! It is a pleasure to meet you as well!

[He's just...a bit distracted.]
geetttdunkedon: (snoople)

((Well, they have their reunion thread, so Ichigo and Pap could just be wandering and looking))
