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.

Sure, Arrival
Please, don't touch that...
[Usually, Naomi would be a little more firm with people attempting to touch the bubbles when they arrive, but... she can't to a kid this young. Funny how much she looked like Alyssa. Perhaps they were around the same age... then again, those pigtails reminded the doctor of her own daughter's stay in the hospital.]
no subject
She looked intense (pretty, but intense), even if her tone of voice might not have initially conveyed this. The young girl frowned hesitantly, taking a moment before speaking. ]
Okay...
[ A pause, as she tried to swallow down her shyness. ]
What is this thing?
[ There were probably better questions she could be asking first, like where she was, or who this woman was. It wasn't necessarily a good idea to talk to strangers, and her dad would probably get mad at her, but, well... ]
no subject
It's a gem; however, as beautiful as it appears, there's something wrong with it, and the other ones in this room. Until they can be fixed, we need to be careful not to pop the bubbles, alright?
[She wondered if the girl would understand that.]
no subject
[ Her brows furrowing in thought, she looked up again at the bubble thoughtfully. Is that why was it in a giant soap bubble like that? ]
What's wrong with it? Is it broken?
no subject
[Well, she's getting the idea. That's good.]
no subject
[ How can a stone be sick? Her frown grows as her gaze lingers on the gem before she turns back toward Naomi. ]
Then we just have to find a doctor that can make it better, right? Then it won't hurt anybody.
[ Dream logic. It totally makes sense. Trust her, it'll work. ]
no subject
no subject
A gee-alligist?
[ Small words, please, she's only seven. ]

I hope so. Then they don't have to be sick anymore.
[ She knows what it's like to be sick in bed, unable to do anything. Nanako might not remember much, but... ]
no subject
[Turning slightly, she watching the young girl. This girl... actually, now the comparisons are side, she was at the party. Though, just to make sure (she didn't get the girl's name after all).]
You know Yu Narukami, correct?
no subject
You know Big Bro?
no subject
[Given the apparent wariness earlier, Naomi is trying to figure out how to have her come along without worry.]
... I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Naomi Kimishima, one of the temporary residents in this Temple. I'll take you to his room, but only if you're alright with following me. Otherwise, I'll get him myself to come get you here.
sorry for the lateness, event at my other game + suddenly all the papers
Temple?
[ Oh, wait, she was going to take her to Yu? That supersedes her curiosity, at least right now. Her dad might not like her suddenly going off with someone she didn't know, but he didn't have to know, right? ]
It's okay, I can go with you.
All good. Take your time when that comes up.
Yes. This isn't the only room in this place, but it's the center.
[Well, at least this girl wasn't too nervous, but Naomi will still take it easy.]
This way then... [Walking over to the door, it opens without her touching it. However, when she looks back to Nanako, the star on her chest is glowing.]
no subject
Okay.
[ Following at a safe distance behind Naomi, she kept her hands close to her chest. There was a funny weight there, something that felt both natural and unnatural at the same time. Nanako felt it the moment she "woke up" in this strange place, but there were more pressing concerns for her to be worried about.
Like how Naomi opened that door. And WHAT IS THAT ON YOUR CHEST. Even for a dream (this was a dream, right?), nothing really made any sense... ]
