TEST DRIVE # 15

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.

Sneaky Snakes

There are a number of snakes that have become possessed by a bunch of very sneaky ayakashi. They are slithering around, silently, snaring unsuspecting passersby into their trap - their trap to steal money. That's right, these snakes are busy snatching bills and coins from whoever they can. Try to put a stop to their thieving ways, or perhaps get thieved by them yourself.

Tummy Troubles

Many of the customers of a certain restaurant are complaining of the fact that their stomachs hurt after eating there. It could just be food poisoning, but many of these people are winding up in critical condition after a couple of days. It's time to figure out what the heck this cook is actually putting in the food.

Underwhelming Underwear

A family run business has been selling underwear for generations, but the underwear they sell is super boring and bland. Nobody wants to buy from them when cooler underwear is just around the corner. They've asked you to help them bring customers back in - by making their boring underwear seem as cool and hip as possible! How you do that is up to you.

Vividly Violet

There are so many ayakashi making their way through the air that at sunset the sky is turning an absolutely gorgeous shade of purple. Near Shore residents are reacting to this in varying ways. Many are delighted by the beautiful sky, but just as many are terrified that it's a sign of the end of times. Try to take down some ayakashi to make the sky less purple. Or just sit back and watch the beauty.

Wonder Wall

Anyways, there's this college boy who won't stop playing his acoustic guitar. He's from the US and is trying to pick up Japanese chicks. By now he should've somehow realized that they're totally not interested in him. But the song just keeps getting louder and louder and all that the people near the campus can hope is that today is gonna be the day that he stops playing. Maybe you're gonna be the one that saves them.

He wasn't believing this kid for an instant because Tsuna was right, he was a bad liar. Hibari could see it in the way he moved and his furious denial of what was said, which confirmed it more than any sort of acknowledgement would.

Coward.

The blight was still stinging his hand rather painfully, but Hibari, surprisingly just started following Tsuna anyway. This god was an enigma, and he didn't want to let Tsuna out of his sight while he knew the kid could possibly be a threat.

He was a coward. It was one of his bad traits. Even if Hibari confronted him with the truth, Tsuna didn't have the courage to acknowledge it. He wondered if it was simply because it was taboo, or avoidance of the guilt he might have, if he caused one of his guardians to suffer? Tsuna didn't know.

However, he focused on the fact that Hibari was following him. Maybe he was in that much pain from the blight slowly taking effect. Tsuna hurried along, walking on to a familiar road that lead them up to a long pair of stairs against a hill. Once they reached the top, the large red torii signaling the gateway to the shrine.

Tsuna was totally out of breath from all those steps, but he made sure to get out of the way, so Hibari could get to the purification well.
