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, as well as the weekly updates to make sure you have all your ducks in a row.

The... The tree had.

Not wind, then, but a rustling of leaves?

She felt somehow as if she'd been transported into one of the books she used to hide away in for days at a time.

"...By itself?"

[rhiaofdruma]

"Of course by itself," she said, shaking her head, making her curls bounce. "Do you require assistance talking?" She asked with a grin.

(Sorry for short tags, on ipad, in car)

[martyrerkomplex]

She said it like it was so simple.

Then again, it did seem to match with her strange appearance. She was easy to imagine off in some forest, painting with all the colors of the wind or something.

"I just didn't think that trees could, that's all..." But there's no indication of contradiction in her tone, no sign that she thinks the other girl could be wrong.

[rhiaofdruma]

"Trees can talk, just like any other living being," she said simply. "But people here don't seem to be willing to try and listen," she mutttered. "Like birds who bury their heads in the sand."

[martyrerkomplex]

"I'm sorry," she said, though it wasn't really like she'd ever done a tree any wrong. At least, she didn't think she had?

"I just... didn't know?"

[rhiaofdruma]

Rhia thought, then nodded, as if satisfied. "Now you do," she said happily.

[martyrerkomplex]

Now, what sort of response would be best here? What would she want to hear?

"I'll try to be more thoughtful, from now on."

[rhiaofdruma]

She nods. "Good," she said happily. She fished out two more berries, offering one.

[martyrerkomplex]

Krista took one, and was content to sit and eat it in companionable quiet with the other girl.

[rhiaofdruma]

And she sat, curling on the bench, chewing her better, watching the world beyond.
