TEST DRIVE # 12



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.



Daring Drinks


A couple of local bars are going out of their way to make new and interesting drinks for their customers to try, in a long-standing war between the two bars. Of course, they're going a little off the rails, so there are some very interesting - and somewhat scary - combinations popping out of the woodworks. And they want everyone passing by to try them.

Electric Eels


An odd ayakashi is causing some of the eels at the local aquarium to become literally electric, causing the eels to shock the other inhabitants in their tanks. This is causing a pretty big uproar and if it isn't fixed soon, someone could die or the aquarium might even just shut down entirely.

Frog Friend


Large frogs are popping up all over the place and following people around. They don't seem malicious in any way, but they are kind of creepy to look at, brightly colored, and leave trails of slippery goo wherever they stand. Oh, and they like to jump at people and knock them over, just for fun.

Gaseous Grandpas


A local home for older men is having a problem with a number of their inhabitants where they literally cannot stop farting and belching. It turns out this is the work of an ayakashi that just thinks farts and burps are funny and knows it's easier to get those sorts of things out of old people. Help the poor old guys out, would you?

Horrifying Hentai


Many known otaku in the area are dealing with a rather terrifying problem - every hentai they watch lately comes into reality very suddenly. Sometimes this means cute, begging girls, sure, but it also means tentacles and aliens and a whole rash of other things too. You'll have to stop the ayakashi that is bringing these 'fantasies' to life in order to save these guys.

frog friend...

Ack!

[Felicia squeaked in surprise when she fell into the other person and the net fell upon them, leaving the two strangers a mess of tangled up legs amidst the weaving that had utterly ensnared them.]

Oh, no- not again! [She babbled, trying to disentangle herself and fend off her own frustrated tears.] I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Oh~ Leave it to clumsy Felicia to make a mess of something like this. So much for being Super Felicia today....

[ And it’s a weighted net, at that. Wonderful. Nobody ever let Felicia and Setsuna get together or terrible horrible things might be unleashed.

As it happens, however, Jakob woefully does not recognize her as well, which makes him even more impatient with her own babbling and—is she about to cry?

Great. Just great. ]


Will you be quiet and get your leg off of— [ Oof, when did the ground get so slippery? That damn slimy amphibious dastard, when he gets his hands on it, he’ll— ]

Ugh, at this rate I might as well cut the net open.
maidhem: (peering)

[personal profile] maidhem 2017-01-06 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[In another time and place, unbeknownst to either of them or anyone without access to overseas DLC, they already have.]

Cut it? Uhm....

[Squirming to get herself loose-- and failing-- Felicia instead opted to reach for a little something she had hidden somewhere in her blouse...]

I think I've got this.

[And, procuring a small knife from only the Gods knew where, Felicia tried to right her positioning so she could have proper leverage--

And abruptly slipped on the slick surface, knocking the blade out of the net and well beyond her grasp.]


Oh, no~! [She pouted.] Do you have something we can use?

[ Scream… ]

Don’t— [ Too late she’s already reaching for her knife—which normally wouldn’t bother him since he’s got a small arsenal on himself most of the time, anyway, but after what he’s seen…

—A heartbeat later he thanks his lucky stars that she hadn’t stabbed him by accident instead. She’s probably close enough to feel his heart rate rise in response to her antics, and the small scare doesn’t make him any more disposed to be kind toward her. ]


Never mind. [ He’s already reaching for that dagger he’s got holstered to his thigh. Being all tangled up with her is making even that a lot harder than it should be, but he’s careful to avoid touching her anywhere improper—which is practically all of her, lbr— ]

Just don’t. Move. [ He’s got this Felicia, only a few inches and maybe a shift of his own legs to go… ]

[personal profile] maidhem 2017-01-08 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
I...

[It was only when the gentleman shifted that Felicia fully realized exactly how close they were underneath that net and exactly how short her skirt was for the season-- and, blushing now in appropriate dismay, Felicia obediently heeded the gentleman's words.]

Uhm, [She said when his legs shifted a certain somewhere a little too close,] If anything happens today, I hope you're willing to take responsibility for it. I don't really remember the last time I was this close to someone...
gentilitea: (Yet may the tide ever change)

[personal profile] gentilitea 2017-01-08 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ And that gets him to stop, his fingertips still an inch or so shy of his dagger. ]

Are you… [ Dammit, he’s been trying not to think about it and she has to go and make him think about it and this is not fun at all!! ]

Are you accusing me of inappropriate behavior? [ All the righteous indignation, Felicia. All of it. ]
maidhem: (game -- ashamed)

[personal profile] maidhem 2017-01-08 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah--Sorry~! I'm not trying to accuse you of anything, I promise!

[Oh~! She was always screwing something up, especially when it was important!]

You're the one who had the net, anyway-- so this is kind of your fault that we're in here.
gentilitea: (With an outstretched hand)

[personal profile] gentilitea 2017-01-09 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She was definitely accusing, and the hard set of his face shows well enough that she doesn’t convince him—not one bit. ]

I had meant to catch a frog before you got in my way, if you recall. [ So obviously she should be the one who gets blamed here. ]

And now I have to destroy a perfectly good net in order to free the both of us from your blunder.
maidhem: livebites (whoa!)

[personal profile] maidhem 2017-01-13 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
But-- maybe we both should have been paying more attention!

[If this man had been trying to catch that frog Felicia was trying to befriend, then shouldn't he have been more aware of his surroundings as well?]

Oh~! There's gotta be something we can do so we don't ruin this net!

[Unbeknownst to Felicia in her panic, the slime beneath them was starting to freeze...]
gentilitea: (With an outstretched hand)

[personal profile] gentilitea 2017-01-14 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ You know, he really can’t even begin to argue since it suddenly feels very cold underneath him, and it doesn’t take him long to realize that the slime is freezing for some reason what the fuck— ]

It’s freezing! [ Is somebody casting a spell at them? Are they under attack?! Alarmed, he finally manages to yank his dagger out of his sheath and frantically worry its blade at the cords of the net. ]
