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.] |

Pascal | Tales of Graces | Option 3
She's a nerd, what else can you expected?
As she flips through a book, rocking back and forth, she suddenly exclaims:] This is sooooo totally awesome!! Hey, hey, can I see your research guys?!
[A nearby man shushes her. Apparently not?]
Yeesh...

Richard puts a gentle hand on Pascal's shoulder.] Pascal. I think they're rather absorbed in their work. Perhaps you'd have better luck waiting until they're finished.
no subject
[She salutes to him with a grin.]
So have ya got anything about this place yet? 'Cause... I don't!
no subject
no subject
I know have you seen some of the crazy cool stuff they have?! Like okay forget for a sec that they zapped us here without teleports or a shuttle but they have these super neat things called tv and I want one!
no subject
[and it was awesome]
no subject
no subject
[But he is so easily distracted. Yes, he wants to eat snacks and watch shows with friends!]
OKAY HERE WE GO
When he sees Pascal bouncing around, though?
Kindred spirit.]
They really are grumpy, aren't they?
[Ember's voice isn't quite as loud as Pascal's, though. He's got some manners, even if they're a little... Weird.]
They're the ones who brought us here, they should be sharing.
no subject
But Pascal brightens up even more at him. Someone to talk to! Sweet.]
I know, right?! We could totally help them out too if they gave us a chance! Well, probably. It could be really fun though! Researching like this is okay for some people but you gotta take a break sometimes or your brain'll go splat.
no subject
And they brought us in to help, too. Ah well.
[He shrugs slightly. If they throw a fit about it, they'll probably get kicked out, and he's not nearly done exploring yet.]
Maybe the people in one of the other labs won't be as grumpy.
no subject
Um...
[Should he say something? That she shouldn't do that?
On the other hand, maybe he shouldn't...]
