Test Drive Meme!


Welcome to the Rekindle Test Drive!
Trying to see if a character will fit or work in the setting? Need some interaction samples? Well this meme is for you!

Make a post, tag around, and most importantly, have fun! Here's the setting page for those who want to learn a little more about the city itself.

Then don't forget to go reserve your character in a week when they open.

Here's some prompts to help you get started, if you need it:
Option 1
[With summer coming, the water level in the river is starting to go down, exposing some of the riverbank. The Riverside Shack is open late, and its restaurant is pulling out all the stops and offering seafood specials (even though a river is a far cry from an ocean). The rental store, meanwhile, is finally bringing out more of its swimming supplies, inner tubes and pool noodles, and a calmer stretch of the river has been roped off with buoys for swimming. They even have lifeguards chairs set up. Clearly this sort of thing used to be an annual event.

It's not quite an ocean beach (quite different actually), but there's still plenty of chance to have fun in the water. Or teach someone to swim, perhaps.]
Option 2
[With a new district available to the public, there are new places to visit. However there are also questions with each new arrival. One may find themselves headed for Saeng Seong's town hall and government buildings in search of answers. Whether it be more reasons for why they're here, or simply looking for an attorney to sue the unnamed scientists that brought you here.

(However, they may be slightly prejudiced to this one. You've been warned.)]
Option 3
[There are certainly a lot of different options for shopping in the city. Perhaps one of the more interesting and eclectic of these options, however, is the outdoor Marketplace in District 3. All sorts of fresh food stalls line the large open area, with different aisles that can be walked down. There's food of all kinds here - fruits, diary, vegetables, and so on and so forth. Some of it will likely be familiar, but other kinds may be so foreign as to be unrecognizable - a orange, seemingly hollow kind of fruit with holes like swiss cheese, for example, or salad greens with leaves the size of heads of pins. You are on a different world, after all.

So wander the marketplace! Discover something new! And perhaps meet other curious people such as yourself...]
Option 4
[Whoops. Looks like you haven't taken the cautionary words of the other NPCs to heart, or maybe you just wanted to take your chances. Either way, the withdrawal symptoms have started and you need to find someone to hug quickly before you get even more sick.]
Option 5
[If there's something else you wanted to play with, that you didn't see here, then have fun with that. You've just arrived in a strange city, after all. There's got to be plenty to explore out and about, not to mention people to meet.]

[ Nabuca never really learned how shops work. He's spent a long time on rationed food in the fortress. He doesn't want to... look snoopy. He idles nearby Emil and peeks out of the corner of his eye, trying to learn what to do... and see what food he's buying.

Food looks so weird to him. Real food, that is. ]
knightofcourage: Laughing, a little sheepish. (Emil - laugh)

[It takes a second for Emil to notice Nabuca's presence, but when he does he automatically moves to give him more room.]

Am I in your way? Sorry.

[ Oh, he was caught. He straightens his back and frowns. ]

No, you aren't. I've just never seen any of this food before. I was attempting to figure out what some of it was by your conversation with the vendor.
knightofcourage: Looking down. (Emil - what's that?)

[personal profile] knightofcourage 2013-07-03 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
None of it? I can help you with most of what I have if you'd like, but I don't really know what this one is.

[He holds up the purple vegetable.]
hopelessdream: (Where kindness is a card game.)

[personal profile] hopelessdream 2013-07-03 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
None that I can remember.

[ He's sure he's eaten them - or something like them - but they're usually beyond recognition. ]

It's... colorful?
knightofcourage: Skit face: talking. (Emil - well...)

[personal profile] knightofcourage 2013-07-04 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Weird. Is food really that different across worlds? If so, then he has to wonder what it means that he recognizes some of the items here.]

Yeah, it is. They don't have anything like this where I come from.

[personal profile] hopelessdream 2013-07-12 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
If it's colorful, would it be sweet?
knightofcourage: Talking; in his Luin clothes. (Emil - I'm not a monster)

[personal profile] knightofcourage 2013-07-13 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Sweet?

[Like fruit...well, it doesn't seem impossible.]

Maybe. Find me again tomorrow and I can tell you.
hopelessdream: (It will kill you in the sunshine.)

[personal profile] hopelessdream 2013-07-13 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
... How should I find you?
knightofcourage: Smile, it's the best ending. (Emil - welcome home)

[personal profile] knightofcourage 2013-07-13 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be here again tomorrow. I can try and make sure I'm here at the same time then.
hopelessdream: (Default)

[personal profile] hopelessdream 2013-07-14 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright. I'll meet you here, tomorrow.
knightofcourage: Talking to Marta. (Emil - conversation)

[personal profile] knightofcourage 2013-07-15 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. I'll see you then!
