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.] |

[ Yogi are you trying to become Tommy's new best friend? Because this is a very good way to earn such a ranking in the construct's easy affections.
He swings right back around and hugs the man comfortably tight again. ]
Then as soon as one shows up here in Saeng Seong, we'll go! Nobody here seems to mind me being a construct as much as they do at home, but if you're taking me, I'd have to be allowed in, right? And we'll get peanuts and popcorn and cotton candy and watch the show, but you'll have to do all the eating, of course, since I don't have a stomach!
no subject
Oooh~ Cotton candy! That'd be awesome. And of course they'll let you in! I'll make them.
[Yogi's not trying to prevent him from talking about his previous home by not asking him what he is and all, but he's simply trying to make him feel as welcome and normal as possible. As far as Yogi's concerned, he should be treated with the same respect as a flesh and blood person.]

Talrovian stands back a bit, beaming, his garden glove hands on Yogi's shoulders. ]
You're fantastic! Really really fantastic! The world could use a lot more people like you, you know? Then we wouldn't even need equality rallies!
...I'd miss the signs, though. Oh! But I could just go out with a "Free Hugs" sign for the fun of it!
[ And he laughs again, grinning down at his new friend while placing one hand over the quilted heart on his chest. ]
What's your name? Legally I'm Talrovian, but I aim to change it to Thomas when I get back home!
no subject
Well Thomas, I think you're pretty awesome too!
[A bright smile.]
My name is Yogi! And we should go make you a "Free Hugs" sign right away!
[Yogi's thinking of making him a more permanent one, since he's pretty good at sewing. That is...if sewing cloth on Thomas wouldn't hurt him.]
