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
[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.]

A Morph?

[She takes the fox-girl's hand and stands up, her regular robes now drenched with water. What a pain, she doesn't really have any other clothes to change into right now.]

I'm Saft...

Can't really say I've ever met a morph before, but you look like a fox.

[Mani nods, yep, a morph, short for anthropomorphic...and she sooooo wants to shake the water out of her fur right now but that would be bad behaviour.]

That's what kind of morph I am. There are dog morphs and wolf ones too...at least there are where I come from.
whitescalesbigmouth: (Saft - Wide eyed innocence)

[personal profile] whitescalesbigmouth 2013-05-20 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds interesting...

I mean, I've met dragons and fairies and giant spiders before but never morphs. Where did you even come from?

[personal profile] rabbitheartedfox 2013-05-20 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
And I've, never heard of Dragons or Fairies Ma'am.

I come from Future Generaton Gentic's Island Facility.
whitescalesbigmouth: (Saft - Oh now I'm embarrased!)

[personal profile] whitescalesbigmouth 2013-05-20 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
You don't have to keep calling me "Ma'am" you know. Saft's just fine that's my name afterall.

[personal profile] rabbitheartedfox 2013-05-21 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
O-okay M- I mean Saft.

Can I ask where you come from?
whitescalesbigmouth: (Saft - Did I mention I'm awesome?)

[personal profile] whitescalesbigmouth 2013-05-21 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
From Dragonsbayne.

It's a place full of dragons and other weird creatures but it's pretty cool.

What are dragons? You've mentioned them twice now.

...Do you miss it?
whitescalesbigmouth: (Saft - Not impressed by your BS)

[personal profile] whitescalesbigmouth 2013-05-21 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I seriously can't believe you've never heard of a dragon...

Even in books?

[She rubs at her arm.] I do. There are people I need to get back to. Family, Friends...you know.

[personal profile] rabbitheartedfox 2013-05-21 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Art doesn't give me books to read any more.

...I'd like my friends to come here instead. I think they'd like it.
whitescalesbigmouth: (Saft - Neck Rubbing)

[personal profile] whitescalesbigmouth 2013-05-21 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Art? Is he a friend of yours?

Hey, I hate books as much as the next person who'd much rather go out and do something fun. Why wouldn't you be allowed to read them though?
rabbitheartedfox: (Default)

[personal profile] rabbitheartedfox 2013-05-21 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
He's my handler he looks after me.

It's not to much that I'm not allowed, as I have to spend most of my time training for shows... Maybe I'll read some while I'm here.
whitescalesbigmouth: (o.o)

[personal profile] whitescalesbigmouth 2013-05-21 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Your handler?

I'm not sure I understand.
rabbitheartedfox: (Shy Smile)

[personal profile] rabbitheartedfox 2013-05-23 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
A handler is the person who looks after me, trains me and evaluates my temperament to make sure I'm put to the best use.

He's the one that said I should be a show morph. My creator wanted me to be a mom but... actually Art wouldn't tell me why he didn't want that, but I'm sure he had a good reason.

[personal profile] whitescalesbigmouth 2013-05-23 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
So, you're not your own person...?

You belong to someone?

[And that whole "mom" business doesn't exactly sit too well with her either.]

Y-Yeah, I'm sure he did too.
rabbitheartedfox: (Default)

[personal profile] rabbitheartedfox 2013-05-23 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm a morph. [Morph equals owned Mani's never heard of a free morph.]

I like being a show morph so it's okay, that's how I met my friends Sunna and Lrya.

They're not here though.
