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.]

[And Peter's looking at Steve like he just grew a second head. This is too much of a coincidence to be real--the looks, the name...

Oh right, he was supposed to be doing a hand shake. One extends, taking it gently as he tries to find the words that he wants to say. Like...his name.]

Peter Quill. Star-Lord. Legendary outlaw and..stuff.

[Our guardian of the galaxy, everyone.]

I'm a big fan. You know, of the way you punched Hitler 30 times.

[noparachute]

[One of Steve's eyebrows rises at the description. Star-Lord? And legendary outlaw?]

Sorry, the name isn't familiar to me. [He wonders what kind of outlaw Peter is, but... he seems nice? Steve isn't about to judge against him quite yet.] Won't be the first time though, still tryin' to catch up on 70 years of history.

[Ah, his old USO days. They were really... cheesy to say the least. But his tone is light as he responds back to him.] It was actually over 200 times.

[outlawname]

[Okay, maybe Legendary outlaw isn't the BEST thing to say to the captain of all America. His chewing slows as he makes a face, thinking this over.]

Yeah. Well maybe it's because you were...dead. Did I mention I'm confused on that? You're supposed to be dead--I mean no offense you're looking pretty good for...what, 90?


[And there's a snap of his fingers, trying to at least sort of act cool around AN AMERICAN HERO.]

200, gotcha. See I only read the comics about you. You're...a pretty big name. Or were...when I was ON Earth.

Being frozen does a great job in preserving your physical features. Better than using any aging cream.

[He's seen those ads and Steve just does his best to ignore them. Anyway, Peter isn't the weirdest fan he's met, at least he didn't tell Steve that he has been watching him sleep. ...Even though Coulson was a good guy that died in the line of duty.

But Peter's last comment makes him intrigued.]

You left Earth? What year?
