TEST DRIVE # 08



Whether you're trying to figure out how your character would fare in this setting, trying to get some samples together, or just dipping your toes in the water, you've come to the right place! The Test Drive is here to make your life easy by letting you see what the game is like without actually joining it first. So here is how it works:


1: Post a starter with your character, including whether they are a god or shinki in the subject line.
2: Act like your character is established enough in the setting to allow your thread to go places.
3: Take on any god/shinki of your choosing, as long as they're not already in the game!
4: Comment around to the other people on the meme.
5: Have lots of fun!

To get you started, here are some ideas for thread-starters! Feel free to come up with your own ideas if these don't strike your fancy, though.



Junky Jokes


There is a small spirit girl who is determined to hear some funny jokes before she passes on to the next life. Your job is to come up with some horribly bad, wonderfully funny jokes to make her laugh. Be warned, though, she's got a very serious face that's hard to crack.

Knights Knives


The swords of the knights at a local museum's exhibit have gone missing. They are praying for them to be returned because these swords are worth so much and such a great part of history. Hopefully you'll be able to find them, because otherwise those prayers are going to someone else.

Ludicrous Lightning


There's been a streak of heat lightning going on. It's so intense that sometimes the lightning will light up the night sky as if it were day and there have been numerous power outages in the area. Go help out the people who are without power and make sure that everyone can still live as normally as possible!

More Money


Who doesn't need more money? A little convenience store needs help since all of their employees have fallen ill at the same time. They're offering double wages to anyone who will work for them. Unfortunately, the store is a hot spot for misfortune and ghouls of various kinds. Have fun!

Neon Nourishment


Surprise! A very American man is shoving neon bright candy and cakes at everyone who will stop for even a moment, and he easily notices all Far Shore residents as well. Which means every time you pass him, you'll be getting more and more of this hideously colored food. Enjoy~



If you're uncertain about anything, feel free to check out the Premise, Rules, and FAQ posts. And don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have on the FAQ!

Have fun!

And if you hadn't done anything...

[ The implication is obvious. With a grumbled "give me a break" and a sigh, he tugs on the other boy's scarf. Dwyer's not normally this forward and brusque, but he tends to get a bit irritated whenever someone creates even more work for him (unless it's his liege), and cleaning is serious business when his butler senses are tingling. Like father, like son...? ]

Now come on. I'm not going to be the only one cleaning up that mess.

[ If he has to work, he's not going to be the only one to. ]

[ A small frown comes to her brow as she scrutinizes one of the pieces of candy she has. ]

More importantly... who was handing them out in the first place? Weren't we told that normal humans wouldn't be able to notice our presence at first glance?

[ Leave it to Hime to get to the nitty gritty. ]
scarfnapped: (Ack!)

[personal profile] scarfnapped 2016-09-01 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Ack--hey!

[Daichi tries to pull loose, flailing a bit]

I was going to without you tugging on my scarf! Let go, it's not a leash!

Junky Jokes

[ This one doesn't even look like she's trying to make the girl laugh. Instead, she's pulled up two chairs: one for herself and one for the spirit who is calmly kicking her feet and linefacing at everyone.

Should you pass, you'll be getting Hime's attention. ]


You there. You seem like the clever sort. Do you think you can make her smile?

--

Knights Knives

[ Should you choose to check out the exhibit, you'll find that she's wandered away to look at the suits of armor and the places where the swords may have been displayed. Her arms are folded behind her back, careful not to touch any of the exhibits as she scrutinizes them with a close eye. ]

They couldn't have gotten very far... provided the thieves were human to begin with.

[ That's when she finally turns her attention to you. ]

What do you think?

Money Honey

[personal profile] freestyle_chrysalis 2016-09-01 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Now- on a regular mission to buy his god and his god's boyfriend? Roomate? Friend with Benefit? some more medicine, it wasn't that unusual to make a pit stop into a small convenience store. What was unusual was watching the hired help tremble before a rather small looking ghoul.]

You know... a simple borderline would get rid of your little friend. That is if you are a shinki, but if you are a god all you have to do is call upon your shinki to get rid of it.

There's a lot more to go. People are always praying for something.

[He should warn her.]

A lot of the prayers we'll get involve women, children, and childbirth.

What is it?

[Daichi's fellow coworker is also another shinki. As she walks over with a broom in her hand, her eyes glances over at the ghouls he's swatting away. Ah.

When another ghoul reaches out for Amane herself, she brushes it away with the stick par of the broom.
]

... We need to find a way to keep them away.
diancecht: (♝ miracle)

[personal profile] diancecht 2016-09-01 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Right, right.

[ Just making sure he won't weasel his way out of this. He lets go of the scarf while Daichi's flailing. Hopefully he won't lose his balance and land on his butt or something. ]

Save the bags for the candy; those can be easily split off into other trash cans. Not so much the cakes.

[ All the cakes are now mushy and sticky though, from being smushed in, which is kind of gross. But at least not much of them have toppled out due to said stickiness. ]

[OH! It's Rei! But...he doesn't seem to remember him.

What's more pathetic is...]


I'm a god. But I haven't found a shinki yet.

[So here he is, not wanting to go near that...that...thing!

He must look really foolish to any of the customers. But he can't do it! He can't just ignore it! With those weird looking eyes and tendrils and goopy body.]
scarfnapped: (Why Me?)

[personal profile] scarfnapped 2016-09-01 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
We could go find a fire god and get them to burn them. Might be easier.
scarfnapped: (Waaat)

[personal profile] scarfnapped 2016-09-01 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Where's the gods when you need 'em? We can't do this forever!

[More beating ghouls away]

[.... Seriously? For a god, this guy is a total dweeb. And that is rather harsh coming from Rei but anyways Rei shakes his head and sets down his bag of groceries.]

Alright then God-san... My name is Rei Ryugazaki. I am the shinki of Tenpou otherwise known as Athena. My vessel name is Chouki and the chou is based off of butterfly. If you promise to release me right after, I will relent to be your shinki. That way you will be able to kill two birds with one stone- you get a lesson on how to use a shinki and you can get rid of your problem.

Lightening
[ Eris? Help people? HAAAAaaaaa, no. In fact, with a flip of her hand she's conjured up a smoky lawn chair to set upon a hill. And with the flip of her other hand, she's pulled a martini out from hammer space. She sits herself down ready to enjoy the spectacle.

It's going nicely for the first ten minutes or so, and she sips on her drink now and then, applauding the lightening flashes and strikes when need be, and occasionally crossing one leg over the other to get into the most comfortable position for the show.

....OH BUT WHO THE HELL ARE YOU, you who just intruded on her view. Eris clears her throat. ]
Excuse me.

I wouldn't. [And there's a stomp of her foot for emphasis.] Tot would never... not on purpose.

[Why doesn't he understand this?

It will come to her eventually.

[Peeking over and seeing the man...he seems nice enough?]

And asked for nothing in return? Tis quite rare for such an individual.

Less work, huh.

[ He looks for a few moments like he's seriously debating this. On one hand, less work. And easier. On the other...fire. Fire which could melt the cake and candy into sugary goop (a plus...?) and fit better into the trash can...but could also go wrong in so many ways (a definite minus).

The strangest thing is that he wouldn't even be surprised if the latter happened. He deals with all kinds of people, apparently. ]


...I dunno, I'd rather not potentially be associated with arson. You?
thekillerwhale: (pic#7591595)

[personal profile] thekillerwhale 2016-09-01 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[That's right. He really isn't used to this whole god thing, yet. Thank goodness she's here to make him think a little outside of his norm.]

That's...true...

[He looks down at his armful of sweets.

He would feel bad just throwing it all away, but it could be harmful.]


Maybe he just has heightened senses?

[There were those people that swear that they can see spirits, so why not candy guy?]

What do you think we should do with all of this stuff?

Mako-chan! You're here too? No way, that's great!

[ Great might not be the best way to put it. I mean, they are gods now, no longer a part of their old world. But that won't keep Nagisa from getting excited about seeing his long-time friend and teammate.

He turns back to the young girl who seems rather down about her wish not being fulfilled yet. ]


She wants to hear some jokes but I can't get her to smile. Not even a bit. Do you know any good jokes, Mako-chan?
scarfnapped: (Default)

[personal profile] scarfnapped 2016-09-01 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, gods can control their powers, right? There wouldn't be any arson!

[personal profile] shortnsweet 2016-09-01 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
I just wanna make her laugh. It's her last wish. I thought that one would do it, for sure.

[ He sounds defeated for a brief moment, but doesn't wanna give up just yet. He is a god, after all, and how could he let down the first one to call upon him with her wish? ]

Maybe she just doesn't like penguin jokes.

[Pot calling the kettle black!

He smiles at Rei. It's a fond smile because that name is really fitting for him considering. And like always, he's taking things so seriously. Watching him almost takes his mind off of the ghoul--almost.]


I promise, Rei.

[His smile becomes reassuring.

Let's see...how does he do this?]


Uhm...I, Makoto...ah...give you the name shouki! (晶) Come forth!

[He draws the kanji in the air and then waits for Rei to become whatever.]
