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.

Cool beans! Just wanted to send a head's up your way~
[Well he's never called her that before. A...a hot mom, what? She's never been a mom! Well, unless you count apparent ectobiology shenanigans, but still!! And why would he call her such a weird, silly, untrue thing? It's her, Jane! Jane!]
no subject
It's a long story. Point is, I don't know your name so apparently I've mentally assigned you an unrelated nickname that you probably shouldn't read into? I don't think it's a big deal. But.. You know my name? So I guess I'm being rude.
no subject
Also no, that's not how Jane's mind works. That weird nickname is now in her steel trap of a brain, forever affixed to the idea of one Dave Strider, and she has Questions.
Well, other than the most important question:]
What do you mean, you don't know my name?
no subject
Uhhh, I mean. I don't want to sound rude, but you weren't really a big factor in my life as far as I know? I think I saw you once, maybe twice. Both times you were in your pajamas and kind of off. Unless time shenanigans are afoot, in which case, God help us all.
no subject
Fuck.
Jane seems to visibly wilt, her mouth drooping to a frown. She suddenly wishes she hadn't asked.]
I...but, you've been here, before. You were here before, and...you really don't remember any of it?
no subject
He's insecure over himself, awesome.]
Well, I'm not going to call you crazy, but in my eyes you're kind of bananas. I've never been here before, we've never had a real conversation, but that isn't to say some other Dave didn't beat me to the punch. [He shrugs.] I dunno if I should say sorry?
no subject
No...no, you're right to think it's bananas. And you don't have to apologize, it's...definitely not anybody's fault.
[Just a misunderstanding. And a load of bullshit. Fuck you, Heart Gem.]
no subject
Is there anything I should know? Any baggage?
no subject
Baggage...oh, like, ends left loose, or something?
no subject
no subject
Well, first thing's first - your brother's here. Dirk. The one from my universe, if that means anything to you. And second...there was a bit of an...incident? Involving another person here. I don't think the other you was very keen on talking to him again after it.
no subject
Though he doesn't say that, of course.]
What person? What incident? Are we talking didn't come to my birthday party or murdered my friends at my birthday party?
no subject
A boy our age...Shun Kurosaki. He...something happened between him and the you here before, and you...that is, the other you...could have been severely hurt. If the rest of us hadn't come to help, I don't know what would've happened, but after that I know the other you wasn't keen on palling around with him anymore.
no subject
Sounds like some Lost Boys nonsense. But hey, whatever it is can just die with the old Dave and I'm just gonna keep this Shun guy at an arm's length. I'm pretty keen on not dying.

wanna wind this one up?
Suit yourself.
Suuuuure
[Rolls her eyes.] You're darn tootin' suit myself, goodness...
