Test Drive - April Edition

[rekindlemods]

Happy early April and spring! Here's a new test drive to go with it! 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. And don't forget to go reserve your character, GO GO GO.......

Here's some prompts to help you get started, if you need it:

Option 1

[Something went wrong with your arrival, or perhaps the security around the gates was lax. Either way, you find yourself outside the city and in place that's providing a steady drain on your energy and looking a lot less warm and welcoming. Particularly those insects of unusual size skittering down the sides of the buildings, just waiting for the wrong movement to be made before swarming. There's an alarm being raised on the other side of the city walls, and it sounds like help is on the way…But will it come fast enough?]

Option 2

[There's a bustle of activity in some parts of the city; people fussing over generators that look freshly installed (and also look oddly lantern like; one more oddity to add to this place) and trying to get them up and running. It looks like they could use a hand or two to help…And oddly enough, given the instructions, hand holding to help power these devices.]

Option 3

[Spring is here! Or at least close at hand, with all the flowers beginning to bud in the trees and the grassy areas. (There might even be a few small animals on hand, too!) Even a change in decoration as little charms and masks are hung up on buildings and the like. Chances are, there might be some other people out enjoying the spring weather, too.]

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.]

[Oh. He had company. He stood tall again and folded his arms, looking down upon the shorter man. Any surprise he may have had was too brief to tell before it was a finely-groomed calm.]

Your alarm is unnecessary. I will be on my way shortly.

[The world just needs to stop swaying first. Last episode took a couple of minutes, and it looked like this one would fit the same bill.]

[redpeacoat]

[Aki is just like that. He says he's fine, but he's not.]

If you have to say something about it, you're lying.

[disciplinary_action]

[The eyebrows twitched. Who was this boy?]

Hmph... regardless, such symptoms are of no concern to me.

[Then, he looked proud. Almost smug.]

I, Ira Gamagoori, have lasted far longer than others that have reached this stage!

[redpeacoat]

You have cronies here then?

[Those symptoms will be of concern if he has nobody for contact.

Shinjiro might have him beat on that, but it's nothing to take pride in.]

[disciplinary_action]

Unfortunately, Saeng Seong saw fit to capture only myself. My 'cronies' remain home.

[A scowl. Lady Satsuki was without her shield. There was no telling what was happening back home; the students were no doubt having a field day with a missing Disciplinary Committee Chair, but he trusted the Committee members to do their jobs.]

Regardless, perhaps it's for the best. They wouldn't appreciate the careless physical contact required of us here.

[redpeacoat]

Then you'd better find some new ones.

[Shinjiro starts to walk away. If this guy is going to just sit and complain and take pride in passing out faster than others, Shinjiro can do the same at home can find something better to distract himself with.]
