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.

[...Shit where does she even begin.]

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.

[His eyebrows lift at the mention of Dirk, which is a pretty solid indication that he does mean something.

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?
cyan_maid: (You are EMBARRASSING me!)

[She sighs. Oh, this is going to be complicated.]

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.

[She's right, it is complicated. He can understand why she's being so vague about it, but he's not sure he's ready to pry.]

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.
cyan_maid: (Oh you cannot be serious.)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-01-29 01:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, please don't die anytime soon. You'll just go into your gem to heal.

Really? So we're immortal here and there's no vague heroism or justness clause that encompasses every haphazard death? Interesting. Maybe you should give me a quick stab to test it. [But pls don't.]
cyan_maid: (NO NO NO)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-03 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I can assure you that the God Tier rules can be considered completely defenestrated. [A pause.] And Christ, no, I am not stabbing you.

wanna wind this one up?

Trust me, I know. Don't ask, but I know. They were fucking pointless in the end. Everything is fucking just or heroic by their standards. They're just the judges that give a perfect ten to everyone for trying.

Suit yourself.
cyan_maid: (:O)

Suuuuure

I honestly can't say you're right, but I can't say you're wrong, either. I never got to die in those pajamas.

[Rolls her eyes.] You're darn tootin' suit myself, goodness...
