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!

Then we could totally trade! You could help me work on my French, 'cause like, nobody in Paris speaks Polish and they look at me mean when I have to use English to order drinks.

Good to see you again! So, did you do anything fun and stuff this summer?

[markedviolin]

Sounds like a plan, then! [She beams.] Plus, I definitely want to see some of the new clothes you got!

I went back to Paris to visit my mother and Charlie--and of course, did my own fair share of shopping before I came back here.

Oh, I so have to show you! The shoes I got there? To die for!

Get anything good?

[markedviolin]

I can't wait to see!

I got a few things, mostly simple stuff, but I'd say the highlights are a new fitted blazer and a very nice pair of boots! Black suede, hundred millimeter heels--[As if she wasn't tall enough standing at 5'8, good grief.]--they cost quite a bit but they are most certainly worth it!

I thought I sent this...

You have to show me, like, as soon as you can! I definitely wanna see!

I'm excited to show you! I'm planning on wearing them with the blazer on the first day... a simple white blouse with a nice black skirt--hopefully it'll help me come across as approachable, but relatively businesslike and not going to take anyone's crap.

So, um, question. Are TAs supposed to dress different from normal students?
