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.

[Yeah, one could say that.]

Oh, my apologies, it must have slipped my mind.

I'm Adrien Agreste. [He holds out his hand to her.]
cyan_maid: (Oooh lookie here)

[She shakes it in return.] Jane Crocker. Sorry to meet you in such odd circumstances.

Ah, no, no, in Paris, we're used to strange circumstances. The other week, I got kidnapped by a horror movie monster and put into a slime cocoon.

But it's always nice to meet charming, sensible young ladies.

cyan_maid: (Oh my!!!)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-02 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah - really, now? You promise you're not pulling my leg? The Paris I'm used to has nothing of the sort going on, and at the very least something like that would make the news.
modelcatizen: (Why anything)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-02 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I would never pull someone's leg about being shoved into a slime cocoon.

It should. I understand that we're not the only city with superheroes, but Paris is a pretty popular city. At the very least, tourists need to be warned. Or advertised to, it can go either way.
cyan_maid: (:O)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-02 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm...well, then, either I hadn't been paying much attention to the news back home, or we're thinking of two entirely different cities - just with the same name and location.
modelcatizen: (Why anything)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-02 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...no, no, I don't think so. Paris is pretty distinct. City of lights. Romance, art, the Louvre, the Effiel Tower.
cyan_maid: Jane is pleased to help bake in all red (Happy to help!)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-02 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
No no, that's the one. What I mean is, it's very likely we're from different worlds. As weird as it sounds, it's a possibility.
modelcatizen: (welp...)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-02 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh.

Oh, right, the whole....multiverse thing.
cyan_maid: (Oh you cannot be serious.)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-02 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that thing.

[My doesn't she seem peeved that it even actually exists.]
modelcatizen: (Why anything)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-02 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose I should get used to that.

[Paaaaause.]

[Wait a minute.]

How....often are people from the same universe?
cyan_maid: (Mm...I dunno.)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-02 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
If you'll forgive my language? Frankly, it can be kind of a crapshoot. I consider myself lucky for having two of my close friends here.
modelcatizen: (Precious Cinnamon Roll)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-02 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
.....

[His]

[His eyes may have just lit up like you told him it's Christmas.]

Which means...it's highly unlikely anyone will know me. Will know the Agreste name.
cyan_maid: (Eerm)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-02 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Well that's not the reaction she expected.]

Most likely not...
modelcatizen: (Precious Cinnamon Roll)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-02 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Eeeeeeeeee]

[He has his hands together in front of his face and he may be bouncing a bit.]

Which means I can do what he want and he'll never know. This is even better than-

This is great!

[When freedom to act how you want without daddy disapproving is one of your greatest desires...]
cyan_maid: (You are EMBARRASSING me!)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-02 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[A...hah.]

I...er...that sounds pretty great? I...I do hope those things you want to do aren't dangerous, or...

[Translation: are you secretly a bad egg did she acquaint herself with a bad egg it's happened before]
modelcatizen: (Mister Cool)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-02 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
What? No! Well, okay, I suppose kind of dangerous, do they have bungee jumping here? Always wanted to bungee jump.

[And his smile has turned more into a manic grin because oh my god, I can be Chat without being CHAT, this is the greatest day ever.]
cyan_maid: (Oh boy! Mail Time!)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-03 01:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Oh, oh, okay, that's a relief. Just bungee jumping? So he's a thrill-seeker then.]

Not that I know of, but if you do find some, just take care of your gem, alright?
modelcatizen: (Mister Cool)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-03 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Thrill seeking is certainly part of it. At least he is a good egg. Just super eager to live life.]

Got it. [At least he's used to keeping that hand safe so no one could steal teh ring.] No trying to catch myself hands first.
cyan_maid: Jane is pleased to help bake in all red (Happy to help!)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-03 01:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Thank goodness for good eggs]

Well, besides that, I'm sure you'll have a grand old time, if you find some bungee jumping!
modelcatizen: (Precious Cinnamon Roll)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-03 02:00 pm (UTC)(link)
If nothing else, I'll figure it out. [Adrien, no.]
cyan_maid: (Aw shucks)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-03 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Good to hear.

[Eh, even if she tells him no, he'll do it anyway, won't he]
modelcatizen: (Mister Cool)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-03 02:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh yes. This is what happens when you spend like fifteen years being told what to do constantly and then have a bad decision enabling spirit cat give you freedom.]

So, what is around this place?
cyan_maid: (Give me all of the bacon and eggs you ha)

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2016-02-03 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
The sea, mostly. And then Waverly Bay, which is nothing like Paris at all.
modelcatizen: (Mister Cool)

[personal profile] modelcatizen 2016-02-05 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
A shame, that. It is a lovely city.

But a seaside village has it's own charms.
