THE TEST DRIVE MEME

This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before the applications open, see what clicks. Multiples will be allowed for this post, and you can generally assume any threads are a self-contained continuity unless you feel like getting creative.

Just post a thread with your CHARACTER NAME and CANON NAME in the title with a prompt and others will reply. Prompts and threads can be action spam or prose or whatever. These threads can be used on the sample section of your application, as well. Go out and have fun!

We also ask that you please pardon our dust. We're working very hard to get this game up and running and hope to be open by September 1st!

Well, English, obviously. Since that's what I'm replying in.

My mom made sure I knew Japanese too, though.

[sultanic]

So, that makes it two, right? You're bilingual? I can only speak English, so that's really amazing!

[If there was any chance of him not seeming like a huge nerd, it's completely gone now.]

[tatatarata]

More or less two, yeah.

Unless you count binary as a language.

[sultanic]

Computer languages are an even tougher kind, aren't they? That counts, too, in my opinion.

[tatatarata]

It'd be pretty weird for me not to know that kinda stuff, with my powers.

[sultanic]

Really? Do you speak to machines or something?

[Possibly invasive questions are totally okay in the name of knowledge, right?]

[tatatarata]

That would be stupid.

It's more like I project myself into them. Which is only slightly less stupid, but still.

[sultanic]

But you can go into computers! You're basically every 90's kid's dream! How can you call that stupid??

[He thinks she's cool, at least. :( ]

[tatatarata]

It ruined my reputation, that's how.

[sultanic]

I see. That's my mistake for assuming.

But you know, people not being accepting of how you are doesn't change that you definitely are cool.

[Did you ever want a miniature version of Professor X preaching at you over the definition of cool?? Too bad, you've got one now.]

[tatatarata]

Even if I delete your important files?

[sultanic]

I don't keep anything digitally that I don't have a physical copy of, so go for it. It won't stop me from believing that.

[He likes the smell of paper books too much to get rid of them.]

[tatatarata]

I could also do far worse than that, you know. Be careful...

[She hardly intends to, though.]

[sultanic]

Isn't that kind of an overreaction to a compliment?

[He was just being honest. :( ]
