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, GO GO GO.......

Here's some prompts to help you get started, if you need it:
Option 1
[The mid-summer rays are beginning to subside at last, giving way to a few cooler breezes here and there as the sun begins to set and the moons rise in the sky. So what does that mean? Well, for the locals, it means it's time to begin preparations for the autumnal festival! The reds, oranges, and yellows take on a more rustic tone in the streets as the venders set up their outdoor marketplace stands, selling all kinds of treats and delicacies.

From fresh corn and pretzels, to strange fruits that may look like those from home (although different in color, not taste), these vendors seem to have it all! Though in a few stands, it seems as though there are snacks and desserts meant to be split in two or shared with another. They also seem to be very fond of giving discounts to couples...

Oh, my...]
Option 2
[Everything on the riverbank seems to be the norm for every other day: Vendors renting out innertubes for two, others selling ice cream and watermelon during the still warm days, and even a few water balloons still being tossed around or kept hidden nearby.

At night, however, there seems to be a gathering at the water's edge as some hold little paper lanterns, aglow with small candles inside them as they gleam golden in the moonlight. The locals say that wishing on them as you let them float into the air brings you good luck, and makes that wish come true. But that's just a silly rumor, isn't it?

At least it's pretty, along with the small candles floating on the water's surface...]
Option 3
[It doesn't matter where you are or what you were doing. All that matters is you've suddenly been hit with the chills (or did the temperature suddenly skyrocket?) and they don't seem to be going away just yet.

Yep. Those wacky scientists seem to be at it again... At least it should pass soon, but whether it be chills or being far too hot, maybe you should...find someone else with this problem. After all, even the face of the medical community says that it will only be fixed by hugging or holding someone's hand.]
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.]

[So he's been told, yes.]

What sort of experience with machinery do you have? You obviously have it, I'd just like to know to what extent.

[Friendly reminder.]

I'm a mechanic, kinda understudied an engineer for a while. Aside from that I've got a mobile suit I pilot and maintain.

That's what I thought you might have had someone inside of you.

Plenty of experience, then. [Whatever a mobile suit is. Something as big as he is, apparently.

He's still obviously hesitant, but the opportunity to get this looked at sooner rather than later is extremely tempting.
]

I'll let you have a look, but don't be poking around too much, okay? If you're unsure of what something is, ask before you touch it. And if I ask you to stop, stop. Agreed?

[Probably bigger.]

Don't think it'll be much of a problem if it's only one thing. If not we'll hope the fire works.

[personal profile] stillshinigami 2013-09-11 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
You got it.

[Finally on the beach, he walks towards the center with his bundle of sticks and digs small hole in he sand. Pulling back to his pocket, he pulls out a lighter and some paper, an old receipt, and lit it on fire, getting the kindling going.]

I don't plan on getting too intimate with your parts today. Kinda figure I should be able to tell if the components are off or not.
stillbeatingspark: (Without looking aside)

[personal profile] stillbeatingspark 2013-09-11 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Definitely bigger.]

Right. It should be simple enough, I only wanted to make sure that was understood.

[He sits down in the sand to get closer to Duo's level, and with a slight depressurizing hiss his chest plate swings down. What's inside honestly doesn't look too unlike a racing car's engine bay, although in the center of it all there was a large, circular hatch.]

[personal profile] stillshinigami 2013-09-11 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
[He got the fire going good before pulling away and looking and approaching to the hatch.

The center, some kind of power core.]


What kind of energy is this?
