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.] |

Why would you do this to my heart
She remembers standing at the edge of the docks in Luca and whistling for what seemed like hours, hoping against hope that he'd somehow be able to answer her call.
More than one person can whistle of course, but the sound is so familiar... She's terrified to look. Terrified to be wrong. She watched him disappear. Watched him dive into the light of Sin vanishing to the Farplane. She's never been able to go to the Farplane in Guadosalam to see if he was there. But if it is him.
She turns around, eyes tightly closed, kicking harder to keep herself afloat in the deeper water. She puts a damp hand to her mouth just like he taught her, and whistles back. And then she opens them.]
AYE
It's a dream. There's something ironic in that statement, but he doesn't really care.]
Yuna? [That's definitely her. That's definitely the girl he loved, and he is definitely way too far away right now. His voice gathers strength--] Yuna!! Heeeey!
[He stumbles as far as he can go, decides 'fuck it', and dives in.]
ghslkdjf
just like he said he wasbut it's all too real. The water on her face is real and the sun shining down is real and the person swimming towards her, whom she's swimming towards right now is real too. He has to be.As soon as she gets close enough she pulls up slightly, hesitating. The last time she'd tried to do this she'd run right through him. There's still the fear, the one that it's a dream, or something.]
no subject
-- but that's not how it works.
He grins a bit, barely able to contain his heartbeat in his chest, and pulls Yuna into his arms. He's real, and so is she. His tight hug proves it.
He kicks his legs a little to keep them afloat.]
You heard me.
no subject
And then she breathes in again.
He's really real. And then she's hugging him back, just as tightly.
It's good that he's keeping them afloat, because right now she can barely think about that.]
I did. [She laughs then, a helpless, slightly watery laugh] You came.
['You finally came.' He'd told her all she had to do was whistle and he'd come running. And now he had.]
no subject
He's alive again, he's solid and real, and she's just as beautiful as he remembered, and there is nothing about this moment that he would trade for anything else.
He runs a few fingers through her bangs, tugging them out of her eyes.]
Sorry to keep you waiting.
