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.]

Yeah.

[America says it as if it should be obvious. He approaches the street corner again to spy around the corner.]

You didn't see him there with his bear? Guess I did a good job getting us past him then.
unionjackoff: (us ♔ my baby don't care)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't see him but. That's not the point. [rests his chin on America's head. comfy] Why are you avoiding him?

[personal profile] hamburgerhero 2013-07-09 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
W-What do you mean? I'm doing it to save you some embarrassment!

[America stammers, looking upward as if he could see England's face from down below. He didn't have to see his face to hear the somewhat accusatory tone in his voice.]
unionjackoff: (what does he care)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
You walked through a crowd of strangers to avoid him. That didn't save me from embarrassment! [he's feeling back to his old self now, so England is going to try to get down himself]

[personal profile] hamburgerhero 2013-07-09 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Those people don't know you. They'll forget what they saw. Canada knows us both.

[America tried to reason. With England's amount of squirming, he tightened his grip around his legs without thinking, unaware that England was feeling well again.]

Which would you rather? Getting caught being carried around by some strangers or Canada?
unionjackoff: (us ♔ don't know why she's riding so high)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
I prefer no one to see! [he hits America's shoulders with his fists. down now!]
hamburgerhero: "Firework" by Katy Perry (gasp)

[personal profile] hamburgerhero 2013-07-09 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
OUCH! HEY!

[America releases England, but leaves it up to England to catch himself as he ducks down to escape England's flailing arms.]

You knew someone would see us eventually! It's a city! I was just trying to help!
unionjackoff: (and i've been working like a dog)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
[finally he is free! he slides off of America and stretches out his back. England feels great, actually, full of energy! guess America can be good for something]

Just forget it! I'm going back to my room.

[personal profile] hamburgerhero 2013-07-09 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Fine.

[America turns toward England and crosses his arms, pouting.]

I'll bother the local government people for you like I said I would. Just don't tell Canada what happened.
unionjackoff: (lives in a dream)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
...........

[aha. so something WAS up with Canada! and, oh, how England wanted to know what it was. he stares at America for several seconds before turning away]

Don't say anything stupid.

[personal profile] hamburgerhero 2013-07-09 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Hey have some faith in me Man. I'm not clueless handling foreign government leaders.

[Why was England just looking at him that way?]

What?
unionjackoff: (and i say hello)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
...Nothing.

[and then England smirks. he only does that when he thinks he has the upper hand] Ta.

[personal profile] hamburgerhero 2013-07-09 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
What?! WHAT?!

[America calls after him. All that smirking- it tended to mean trouble what with England's default face being a little frown.]

You sure you can make it back?
unionjackoff: (sounds of laughter shades of earth)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be fine!

[he holds up a hand in a wave as he walks away. now that England was healthy, he was in a better mood, ready to investigate America's secret bwahahaha]
hamburgerhero: "Firework" by Katy Perry (troubled blush)

[personal profile] hamburgerhero 2013-07-09 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
Okay...

[America continues to frown but returns the wave before turning back towards the corner to peer around the edge of the building to see if Canada was still on the next street.]

[[OOC: pfft England! Haven't you heard of private matters of the heart? Also, you know these two! Are you only noticing this now? Are world meetings that distracting? Okay maybe they are.]]
unionjackoff: (i say hello)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2013-07-09 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ooc: weeeeell America's not one to talk about leaving alone matters of the heart. 8D doesn't he needle?

hm. i suppose we'll have to discuss headcanon stuff and how much we think each other knows about each other's relationships. that could be good]

[ooc: Okay. Though I think plurk is the place to have this conversation. Not here in the middle of the test drive meme. XD

I'll ping you if you don't first.]
