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 | [While the days grow longer and warmer and the older, oriental-style of the city would normally make one think that the interiors would not be much in the way of relief from the hot sun, it may surprise the guest to see that the apartments the natives have allocated for them are surprisingly comfortable. In fact, the only modern convenience they may be missing is a television set! At least, outside the media floor on the first floor of Building One - the first of four inter-connected buildings.
In fact, each apartment building seems to have at least one different amenity on the first floor. In Building Two they seemed to even spare a library in another that seems to have the basics and some information packets that are otherwise found in the Welcome Center in District 2. There are even a few restaurants and common dining areas in the Building Three that are open until late at night, and meeting areas and a ballroom on the first floor in Building Four, perfect for setting up small parties or big events.
With the locals gone save those who work in the restaurants and the one librarian, leaving you to your own devices, what will you do? What mysteries could be left to discover in this place?] | | Option 2 | [With summer coming, the water level in the river is starting to go down, exposing some of the beach. 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 3 | [If you're more inclined to explore or learn, the City's Learning Center might be more to your tastes. There certainly seems to be a lot going on here - there's laboratories and libraries and workshops, and plenty of communal areas where you can meet and talk with people. The natives seem pretty absorbed with their studies and work, though they're polite in brushing you off, at least.
Perhaps you'll have more luck seeing what other Guests such as yourself have discovered?] | | 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.] |

Option 4!
Needless to say, Sora isn't terribly sure about where he's going anymore. He's not too worried about it, though - he'd come out here to explore anyway, so what did it matter where he ended up? He'd find a way back eventually.
But it's so quiet that he's a little surprised to see someone else there...and even more surprised once he realizes that it's Riku. That definitely hadn't been what he was wearing when Sora saw him earlier...what was with the coat and blindfold? But Sora forgets about all of that when he notices that Riku looks kind of sick. Oh no...]
Riku? What're you doing out here?
no subject
He is a bit too focused on stopping the world from spinning though, trying to control his breath as he turns to press his back against the wall for more stability.
Until he hears that voice, but... there's no way...]
S-Sora? [Excuse that dumbfound expression.] ...You are awake.
no subject
Well, um, yeah. I've been awake for hours.
[Seriously, he knows he's been sleeping in a little bit more lately, but come on...
Still, there were more important things to worry about! Like the fact that his best friend looks like he's about to pass out.
(Next most important thing is asking why in the world he's wearing a blindfold, but first things first!)]
Are you okay, Riku? You don't look so good.
[Do you need a hug?]
no subject
...Well, better late than never.]
About time. I'm pretty sure you set a record there anyways.
[It's about then that the next wave of dizzy spell hits him, causing his head to tilt back as he groans lowly.]
'm fine.
[...Right. Of course he is.
Alternately, he is just the most miserable liar in this whole city. In more ways than one.]
