TEST DRIVE # 13



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.



Illegal Irritations


Nothing supernatural about this one, there are just some guys sell illegal drugs and weaponry in some of the back alleys of Tokyo. They might solicit you to try and get your business or you might just happen upon them targeting someone else. Either way, are you really okay with letting this go on in your city?

Jumping Jellyfish


For some strange reason, a bunch of jellyfish have taken to literally jumping out of the ocean and all over the beaches. They seem to be scared of something in the water, but be that as it may, they're scaring away all the beach tourism! Quick, figure out how to get them back in the water!

Kooky Kickoff


A brand new store is opening up and, as part of their grand opening, they want people to perform for their potential customers! And they're just dragging people off of the streets and shoving them into ridiculous, off-brand character costumes to do it. Whether you're part of the show or watching others make fools of themselves, it promises to be a good time.

Lovely Lingerie


There's a great, new brand of lingerie being sold in Akihabara that is all the rage right now. They're stylish and sexy and come in all shapes, sizes, and colors! There's even some that are themed after popular shows. But people who are buying them keep winding up missing. Coincidence?

Manic Molting


So many birds are molting on the spot for no reason, shedding feathers all over the streets, on peoples' cars, and in any space they can get into. It's really not their fault, but darn if it's not making things difficult to do with all these feathers around! Either help clean up or figure out how to stop the mass molting!



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!

[Kooky Kickoff]

[Enma had once more roped into another potentially sticky situation. It was another one of those things where someone easily took advantage of his meek nature to talk him into something he actually doesn't really want to do. This time? It was wearing a strange costume that is supposed to look like a meerkat. He's thankful enough that the mask hides his face, but this was still embarrassing!

He's holding a sign that's boasting the opening of new store, with sales up to 50% off. Even though he's been given lines to read on the back of the sign... Were gods supposed to really be doing a job like this?]


C-Come on in! We're having a grand opening sale... [What's that next line? Whoever wrote this has awful penmanship.] Some of our teams are up to fifty presents off!

[Wait, that doesn't sound right...]


[Manic Molting]

[Feathers. Just feathers. Everywhere. Figuring out why the birds were molting was not up Enma's alley, but at least he can help with the cleanup. His skinny arms are great for reaching into small spaces to grab as many feathers as he can. Getting up higher was a bit of a task for this vertically challenged teen so he might need help with that.

A little later he finds out just how much feathers can itch and tickle at the same time when a ill timed sneeze sends them all flying into the air. There's feathers everywhere. His hair, somehow down his hoodie and shirt, sticking to his clothes... it's not a good look and the poor boy is stuck cleaning up the feathers. Enma doesn't seem too bothered being covered in them, looking rather resigned and tired instead. Just another day of bad luck. Mind helping a kid out?]

[She doesn't mind helping but she's not very comfortable in this costume either. It itches and pulls in all the wrong spots. Meerkats are timid creatures but... she's doing her best to look dignified instead of timid.

She turns to Enma and gently shakes her head.]


I believe it is... some items are fifty percent off.

[He's got the timid part down to an art. The mask hides his sudden panic, pulling the sign as close as he can to his face to squint at the letters.]

Ah... You're right...

[Adelheid would be much better at this, except she may have scared all the customers away. At least the sign would have been double checked and correct.]

Should I try again?

[She gives him a small smile and reaches up to take the paper from his face to examine it herself. She taps the note and then passes it back.]

Yes, that's correct. Try again, I suppose you'll have to speak up for humans to hear.

[Such a strange job for them to be completing... But there could be worse things.]

[personal profile] fiammadellaterra 2017-02-01 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Right. I'll try.

[He takes a deep breath. Boy, it was still hard to think of them as humans, but not himself? Pretty sure he was originally born human.]

Come on i-in! [Voice isn't that much higher than before. Attempt is being made.] Some of our items are up to fifty percent off!

[She lets out a giggle and pats him encouragingly on the back.]

Excellent effort, Enma.

[Better than she could do, though she always wonders why she gets anxious about public speaking.]

I do think we'd attract more attention with more elegant costuming though...

[She scratches her arm.]

[The unexpected back pat makes him stumble a few steps forward.]

Thanks...

[There wasn't much to it. It was just come words that have fallen on deaf ears. He blinks, looking down at his costume.]

Elegant? I don't know if they have anything like that.
