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.

Yes... [Because Gilberte has no sense of personal space, she's just going to reach out and touch one of those lovely wings now.] Such a pretty voice, and your wings are like the wings of ravens! How charming!

[She's so delighted, she doesn't think to answer the question.]

[Said wing twitches back, not expecting to be touched. The feathers feel a bit like living plastic, and the wing itself feels unusually warm; warmer than body temperature, but not nearly enough to scald or burn. Okuu wasn't that startled.]

The old ones say they used to be prettier. [Pause] Not mine-mine, but...all of ours.

[She says with her arm still hanging in the gutter and her cheek pressed into the grass.]

[As she hasn't been pushed away, Gilberte is going to stroke Okuu's wing, enjoying the strange texture and the heat of it. She's absolutely delighted.]

Prettier still! They must have been lovely, indeed, because these are so—formidable. Beautiful bird, do you sing?

[Gilberte has no idea what Okuu's talking about, but she nods, still not offering to help or askin what's wrong.]

Ah, the old ones. Are you too from an ancient lineage?
idkmybfforin: (Spoiler: She's illiterate)

Sorry for the late response!

I can copy a sound if I hear it enough.

[The feathers are prickling upwards now; that did feel nice, but Okuu was about reaching her tolerance level for Random People Prodding Her Wings.

Though the flattery was nice, and largely what was keeping her from tugging her wing back into place.

Yes and...no, but sort of? There were people in the tunnels before I was; sometimes for a long time.

[She means mutants when she says "people", humans not necessarily included.]
