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.

[ Nanako's expression suddenly grows very grim, and she looks down a bit before shaking her head.

Did he just not remember? ]

[...oh. Oh no. He's starting to get a bad feeling. Is this what Dojima claimed was detective's intuition?

It'd be easy to just assume she must have been at a friend's. But... that grim look and the fact she didn't seem to know what he'd done...

This place had all sorts of people from all sorts of timelines after all. He and Labrys had very different accounts of the show down with Hi-no-Kagutsuchi and Rise was... well, Rise was just plain weird but...

He swallows a hard lump in his throat.]


Nanako-chan... Sorry, this is going to sound a little silly but what month is it? Do you know?

[well that's... a bit easier than just saying HEY WERE YOU IN THE ICU]

[ Looking up at the sudden question, Nanako's expression was uncertain. It was... The more she thought about it, the harder the question seemed to become. What was the last thing she remembered?

A bit of fear starting to settle in, she bit the inside of her lip, and balled her fists up at her sides. She... she lost track, didn't she? Big Bro and his friends came to visit her, but she could't remember the last time... ]


I--

[ She tried to keep the panic from seeping into her voice, but it was a bit too late for that now. ]

[OH NO he's screwing this up already, shit. WAY TO GO DETECTIVE DINGUS.

The last thing he wants is for her to get upset, so he's going to try and mitigate this as best he can.]


Uh... haha, sorry! Sorry! Just ignore that, it was a really weird question! Haha...

I-I only asked because um... well, this place does some real whacky stuff with timelines. Erm... that's probably really confusing for a kid your age but...

B-Basically, it was summer already when I came here. And last I spoke to your dad, he said you'd gotten aaaaall better and weren't in the hospital anymore! S-So that's why I was trying to check!

[Izanagi help him if it turns out she's from an even earlier time point and hasn't been to the hospital yet because then he's SCREWED]

Y-You follow? O-Or did I use too many weird words...?
