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.]

Because once I met him, I knew that I wanted all of you to be all right. I knew that this person was gentle and fragile. I thought that a heart like that should inherit the Earth.

There's a future that you all need. He's why I realized that. And then I thought, 'I'll help him achieve the world he needs, and the world that the Lilin need.'

...So you chose him, then.

[there's a small part of her that finds that both obvious and morbidly hilarious - what is it with NERV clones and falling for Ikaris - but in the end, she can't exactly fault him for it. Hell, at least as explanations go, it's a relatable one.]

I can understand, I guess. [On a rational level, if no longer an emotional one. What a time to start feeling old...]
paraclete: (to hold such darling wrecks)

[personal profile] paraclete 2013-05-23 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I chose him. But I chose all of you.

He's not ready to rot. Give him time. He should spend this while away from Eva learning about himself and other people.

[And what better way to learn about yourself than to meet yourself face to face..........]

Gendo is formidable, but I think his son will overcome him.

Maybe we'll be lucky and the bastard will die of arthritis.

[she sighs, watching out across the water.]

I can't share your compassion, and I can't share your forgiveness. Third Impact isn't something one person can forgive. But if you want to try saving him, I won't get in your way.
paraclete: (i am very patient)

[A hum-laugh. Asuka has a good spirit.]

You have a tenacious soul, Second Girl. As expected. I won't squander this opportunity.

Well, I hope this place treats you kindly. The river seems fun, and there are other things, too. We'll come across each other, I'm sure.
agelostdoll: (awkward)

[personal profile] agelostdoll 2013-05-23 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
Asuka's fine, sheesh. Not like any of us are pilots here.

You too, I guess. [Wierdo. Harmless, but a wierdo.]
paraclete: (from the broken throat the marshy lip)

[personal profile] paraclete 2013-05-23 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
All right, Asuka. I'm Kaworu. Take care of yourself. [He says it like this is normal, and smiles at her like they're friends.]
agelostdoll: (No idea)

[Wierdo]

Right, sure.
