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.] |

There's a chair nearby. [Just nearby, lined up in front of a small cafe.] I'll help you there.
no subject
Thank you. I... [She heaves another breath.] I'm sorry... I'm not usually like this at all.
no subject
It's okay. I think I might've done the same thing you did, back when I first came. You new around here?
no subject
But it was not like she could just ask this boy to touch her again. They just met after all. Not to mention it was a bit presumptuous and weird to ask something like that in the first place.]
Yes... I've only been here for a few days. [She smooths her bangs back, trying to cool her face with the gesture.] I didn't think it would be this bad...
no subject
Happens pretty fast, huh? [It sounds like she gets why she suddenly felt sick.] Did you not have contact with people for a few days? I thought I could handle it. It got pretty bad before I got some help.
[Oh, right. She still looks pale.
...He's so not used to this. Clearing his throat, eyes traveling down, he brings a hand over the table, furled open.]
Here. [His eyes dart every which way towards the table. She should take it.]
no subject
[Mami looks down at the table, her gaze flickering to the boy's hand to his face. She feels her cheeks heat up even more, not quite sure if it was due to her fever or something else.
After a short moment of hesitation, she reaches out, taking Roxas' hand into hers and gives it a gentle squeeze.]
... Thank you. [She sighs, curling her fingers around his.]
no subject
He swallows, clears his throat, eyes cast down towards the table.]
You thought you could handle it, right? [Just like him.]
no subject
As she spoke, the pad of her thumb absently strokes the skin at back of Roxas' own thumb. Out of habit really but the tiny gesture was helping with her recovery just a bit.]
Yes. Yes, I thought I could. [She frowns.] I... remember being more resilient than this.
no subject
He was thrown into this new and uncomfortable city where he was forced to do this one thing he had never had any experience in doing. It was only fortunate that Mami had found him when he had only just become comfortable with holding hands.
And- And now she's brushing his thumb. What would normally be an uncomfortable shiver instead comes as gentle relief. He lifts his eyes to her again.]
Did something like this happen to you before?
no subject
no subject
[A little tactless. He means no offense by it, Miss Tomoe. uou]
no subject
Oh goodness! [She lets her giggles die down before speaking again.] I'm afraid it's a bit more complicated than that.
no subject
How's it more complicated? [You're either human or not, aren't you? That's how he'd always understood it.]
no subject
It is something I don't usually share with other people.
no subject
Guess this sort of thing happens to everyone no matter what, huh? Good thing I found you before it got any worse.
no subject
Yes, it was a very good thing indeed. Thank you...?
