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!

AND REMEMBER, RESERVES OPEN JUNE 3RD!

I DO WHAT I CAN

[Tenma laughs]

Definitely. He's much older too.

[In comparison to Tenma himself anyway, especially since he didn't age for five years]

Fukuoka, huh... Did you come here straight from there?

I love voice actor jokes

[tunedere]

[ He appears to consider the question for a moment, if only to weigh whether he should tell the truth or not. ]

No. I spent time in Tokyo before this.

[ Left vaguely enough to hopefully not be incriminating. ]

people seldom do

[soccerwhisperer]

[He brightens at this]

I did the same thing too! I'm from Okinawa, but I went to school in Kantou before transferring here. What was living in Tokyo like? It's been a-- -[There's a sudden hiccup in this enthusiasm] --Um, about six years since I lived in Japan...

they're beautiful and need to be appreciated more

[tunedere]

[ That hiccup certainly is noticed, but he doesn't comment on it. ]

Busy. Tokyo never sleeps.

[ Which might be saying quite a few things about himself, but he quickly moves on. ]

I mostly attended school, so that's that.

[soccerwhisperer]

I see. Inazuma Town is pretty quiet, except when it comes to soccer.

How are you liking America?

[tunedere]

[ Inazuma Town... he hadn't heard of it, actually. Being an idol restricted the news you tend to read. ]

Different form Tokyo, definitely. And they tend to be a lot more unrestrained with their thoughts.

[ Is that really the only thing you've noticed, Tokiya? ]

[soccerwhisperer]

[Tenma laughs at that]

Americans can be rude, but a lot of them are honest. I like that.

[tunedere]

[ He's quiet for a moment, while he considers this. Honesty can be appreciated, but he probably won't be giving much of that to other people. ]

I see. They will need tact to go with it, then.

[soccerwhisperer]

[He chuckles at this.]

One thing at a time...!

[Speaking of tact...]

Oh, I'm sorry, I kept asking you about yourself without even introducing myself. I'm Matsukaze Tenma, but everyone just calls me Tenma!

[tunedere]

[ It's a good change of topic, if anything else. ]

Ichinose Tokiya. Pleasure to meet you.

[ This is said a little less aloofly than he would otherwise, since he has to return Tenma's enthusiasm at least a little. ]

[soccerwhisperer]

[He seems to find this quite amusing]

Ichinose-san, huh? Hehe, my relative's boyfriend shares your family name! I think he's proposing soon, so she'll be an Ichinose too.

[It's overwhelmingly clear he has no idea who Tokiya is or was.]

It was nice meeting you too. I hope you like it here!

[tunedere]

[ In any other situation he would have just broken off the conversation and left, but the fact that Tenma didn't know about his public identity dampened the annoyance somewhat. ]

I don't think we are related.

[ He wouldn't call himself an orphan, but his mother's attitude came close enough.

At Tenma's last sentence, he just nods. ]
