Test Drive Meme!


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
[With summer coming, the water level in the river is starting to go down, exposing some of the riverbank. 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 2
[With a new district available to the public, there are new places to visit. However there are also questions with each new arrival. One may find themselves headed for Saeng Seong's town hall and government buildings in search of answers. Whether it be more reasons for why they're here, or simply looking for an attorney to sue the unnamed scientists that brought you here.

(However, they may be slightly prejudiced to this one. You've been warned.)]
Option 3
[There are certainly a lot of different options for shopping in the city. Perhaps one of the more interesting and eclectic of these options, however, is the outdoor Marketplace in District 3. All sorts of fresh food stalls line the large open area, with different aisles that can be walked down. There's food of all kinds here - fruits, diary, vegetables, and so on and so forth. Some of it will likely be familiar, but other kinds may be so foreign as to be unrecognizable - a orange, seemingly hollow kind of fruit with holes like swiss cheese, for example, or salad greens with leaves the size of heads of pins. You are on a different world, after all.

So wander the marketplace! Discover something new! And perhaps meet other curious people such as yourself...]
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.]

[Steve warily looks at Spain, not quite sure if he's planning on pulling something else on him. It wouldn't be the first time, so he slowly stands up on his own. He's normally not this distrustful, but being in a new world and being randomly struck has made him more cautious.]

You normally go around hittin' that person's knees? [Spain does look sheepish, so Steve isn't as annoyed as he normally would be.]

[ His distrust is understandable and not without total and utter reason!

Though Spain gives a light chuckle at Steve's question and immediately gets over most of the embarrassment he had been feeling previously. ]


I made a mistake and thought you were someone else.

[ Even though they don't look the same at all. ]

Who did you think I was? That's one heck of a greeting for him. [Steve's a little curious now, wondering if this person is a close friend to Spain. Or a rival of some sort.]
tercio: (Hey cool!)

[personal profile] tercio 2013-07-06 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
My good friend, America!

[ He saves all his love for his good friend with this SPECIAL kind of greeting. ]

You don't look that much like him now that I see you up close.

[Steve looks a little confused at that. Hearing people refer to someone as just "America" is kinda unusual.]

Is that a nickname? Or some sort of stage name that he uses?

[Regardless, he smiles a little.] Don't think I have the attributes to have that kind of title. But be more careful next time, okay?
tercio: (Whee!)

[personal profile] tercio 2013-07-07 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Steve is really one to talk about being referred to as "America", isn't he? ]

No no, that'd be his real name. [ This causes him to laugh lightly, thinking that maybe Steve misheard him. ] Something about your--

Your...

[ There are no words but he gestures to all of him. }

Don't worry! You're much less annoying than he is so I don't think I'll make that mistake again!
wontdoanyless: (smile)

[personal profile] wontdoanyless 2013-07-07 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh, that's his real name... that's definitely unique. Guess his parents are really proud and Steve's not about to judge someone over a name anyway.]

Well, I'm from America, if that helps. Brooklyn, specifically. [Which he kinda misses now, but no reason to bring that up. Although, that annoying comment brings his attention back to Spain.] Um, thanks. Glad that I am?
tercio: (Flower.)

[ Steve's name would have to be changed to Black because every kettle and pot would be calling him such! ]

He'll be happy to see you if you ever meet him. [ You'll feel RIGHT at home! ]

Oh! I'm Spain, by the way.
wontdoanyless: (small smile)

[Definitely so!]

Wouldn't say no to meeting someone called "America." [Oh, so this fella is named after a country too. And he seems friendly enough, despite the rough introduction. He offers a hand for a handshake.] Nice to meet you, Spain. I'm Steve Rogers.
