THE TEST DRIVE MEME

Hello, True Believers!

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!


Be sure to read up on all game information and the "!event" tag to make sure you have all your ducks in a row.

I have seen many ghost stories that have turned out to be either the power of suggestion or an individual's own actions. However, I am not completely adverse to the possibility of the unexplained.

[Naoto nods, thoughtfully.]

My grandfather is fond of the Western proverb of to 'bloom where you are planted'. I believe that is the proverb. I have not had a 'home' as such in quite a few years. Something is always going wrong, and there is always a need for someone to find out how it is going wrong. You are right. I will likely be able to find a mystery.

Oh sure, it's probably just people being idiots most of the time! But not always.

[Adachi doesn't disagree, but people believing in ghosts is funny to him, so he encourages it.]

Some wise old guy. See, sounds like you've got it all figured out. They need detectives everywhere, because of how much people love to commit crimes. There's always going to be more people causing more trouble. It's a growth industry!

[shiroganeheir]

It is possible. I have seen many strange things.

[There's a nod from Naoto and a shrug.]

It is. As much as I wish people would stop committing crimes, I know there will always be a truth to find.

[denialism]

Yeah, things are strange, and they keep getting stranger. Just wait until you've been here as long as I have. You'll have seen more strange things than you can even imagine now.

Sure, it's human nature. Or mutant nature. People cause trouble. They almost can't help it. But that's okay, because people like you like finding them out. It's pretty nice how that works out—there are people who like committing crime and people who like solving crimes.

I am certain that the things I will experience will only be more odd than what I have already seen. I am not certain if I am looking forward to it or not.

[Naoto shrugs, nodding a bit.]

True. Perhaps that is why everyone has different skills. When they are put together, order can be achieved.
