TEST DRIVE # 01

What's that? You're interested in testing out what it would be like to join the wonderful world that is The Far Shore? Well then you have come to the right place! The Test Drive is here to make your life easy by letting you see how you would fare in our game 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.

Alleviating Ayakashi
The age-old quest of destroying ayakashi is something that most gods and shinki participate in at some point or another. Lucky for you, there are a lot of the nasty things around. Unlucky for you, they kind of think that eating you would be a lot of fun. So let's hope you're experienced enough at combat to kill them! Or at least avoid them long enough for someone else to…

Broken Bonds
A request has come in from someone who is missing a person who was in their life a long time ago. They want you to find that person and bring them back, no matter what it takes! Unfortunately, the only description you're getting of the person is from when they were seven, and they're likely in their fifties now. But that little picture the requester gave you might help you in your search if you ask enough people! That is, if you can get their attention long enough to ask…

Couple Complaining
There are a lot of couples around lately and certain followers are so jealous of them that they are praying for certain couples to be torn apart. That might not be your cup of tea, but then again it might be, who knows! All you know is that the lovers you're following around are a couple of the most nauseatingly cute people you've ever seen in a relationship. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to break them up after all, just for the sanity of everyone around them…

Darling Dearest
Of course, with Valentine's Day just around the corner, there are plenty of young Japanese boys praying that they will receive chocolates from the girls that they like. Are you willing to play a little game of match-making? And how exactly are you supposed to push two people together when neither of them tends to notice you for long? Ah well, love is in the air and you might as well help it along!

Exchanging Endowments
Valentine's Day isn't only celebrated by the people of the Near Shore, though. Those of the Far Shore are often placed in positions where they have to exchange chocolates. So what exactly are you going to do? This can be obligation chocolate, friendship chocolate, chocolate to express your love, or anything else you can think of.

[She's personally grateful that she still had powers to use even if she didn't have a weapon. That and she did know how to punch if push came to shove. Yukiko didn't hear much of what the other one said but she did see what he was doing.

She nods in reply as the ayakashi tries to flee again, this time getting in front of them with palms out. If they certainly did not like the small fires she used before, they more than likely would not like the bigger fire she contains to that one particular spot.]

[Heh. Finish them- done like dinner. Well-done and crispy. (Okay, enough bad jokes.)

Now that he is a bit less involved in being awed by the fire, he can see that she is weakening them and driving them off, but she must not have her shinki on her.

It irks him, to let the ayakashi go, but at least they are ~~crispy-fried~~ weakened and scattered.]

They won't be troubling anyone for a while like that. [He comments as he approaches her, his eyes warily glancing about for any straggler ayakashi. His face then breaks into a grin.]
Awesome fire, by the way.

[She doesn't get many compliments on how great her fire is; just times to not piss her off. It does make her go a little pink in the cheeks though.]

Ah, thanks. Normally I would've used a weapon but I had no sword on me. I like what you did to keep them from running all over the place though; held them and helped to make sure the fire didn't spread all over.

[Gods running around without their shinki. Yukine knows this situation all too well ~~YATO~~. It irks him a little, but he also looks faintly pleased at the compliment about his borderline. (Playing it cool like any 14-year-old, yep.)]

That's the least any shinki should be able to do. The more you work together with your shinki, the smoother things will go. So be sure to call them, all right?

[He looks directly at her when he says that, a certain gravity in his eyes. He has his reasons for saying that.]
