Test Drive - July Edition

[rekindlemods]

The July 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. 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

[ It looks like there are preparations underway for some sort of festival or fair. There are various stands and booths being erected along sectioned-off streets and the riverbank, and decorations are slowly but surely being hanged. Fireflies seem to be appearing all along the riverbank as the sun sets, with a few stands set up with mason jars of various sizes as well as paper lanterns, possibly as further decorations. Whatever the case, it looks like those setting up could use some help! ]

Option 2

[ Though most of the stands are being set up, that doesn't mean that there aren't a few vendors looking to help those out and about beat the heat in some fashion. There are some selling shaved ice with various flavors, and others that appear to be handing out water-filled balloons or squirt guns. However, like in the market district, there's a catch – the items are free, so long as you arrive at the stall in pairs or groups larger than two. ]

Option 3

[ 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 4

[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.]

Seventeen percent. That is only five percent better.

[GOD who would have thought he'd MISS the creepy little beast.]

[And he just stares at Peter. Like he's speaking more gibberish than usual.]

We did not. Ronan still lives. He was in the process of speaking nonsense at the frightened people.

[outlawname]

Thank you, Reading Rainbow. Now I know.

[Yeah, he's starting to miss his furry behind too. At least the raccoon understood him.]

...

Ah, yeah. We kinda blew him up with the power of...[Sorry, there's some shaved ice in his mouth.]..Power of friendship or something. And the infinity stone.

[iamnotaprincess]

[PAUSE...]

Who is this Rainbow you thank?

[And yeah, he did just glance around because who the hell are you talking to, bro?]

We... we have done no such thing. He still possessed of both the stone and his life, when last I saw you.

[outlawname]

Nothing, nothing. It was a joke. Those things you don't get.

[He waves his hand, as if trying to get Drax back to the important part of this conversation.]

Look, I was there. I'm the one who grabbed that stone. Yeah, yeah, almost had it tear me apart if it wasn't for you guys.

It's a little hard to forget.

[iamnotaprincess]

You should have said so.

[HUFF HUFF. Why are you so difficult, Quill.]

Then why is it I have no memory of such a thing? I would recall you being foolish enough to grasp the stone in your hand. That is not the sort of idiot idea one forgets easily.

[SAYS THE GUY WHO CALLED RONAN COLLECT FROM KNOWHERE.]

[outlawname]

I did--you know what, I'm not going to argue. Just take the shaved ice and eat it.

[Right, HE'S the difficult one.]

Yeah well the idiot with the idiot idea just confirmed that he did it so...guess that leaves you with a bunch of missed memories.

You helped out, you know.

[iamnotaprincess]

It makes my skull hurt.

[That's because you jammed like five spoonfuls into your mouth at once, Drax.]

I would remember this. I would remember helping to defeat Ronan.

[He scowls at nothing in particular--]

Did I rip his limbs from his body or crush his spine into gravel?

[outlawname]

Yeah, that's called a brain freeze. Try not to do that.

[It's like he's the babysitter and that's sad cause Gamora's HIS babysitter so what does that say about you losers]

...

Uh. More like we beat him with the stone using the power of friendship.


Or something.

[Casual spoonful of ice. As if he were just commenting on the weather.]

[iamnotaprincess]

If my brain were truly frozen, we would not be having this talk.

[You people and your idioms, UGHHH.]

This power you speak of. How is it possible to defeat the stone? Is it explosive?
