TEST DRIVE # 17
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!
Courtly Cadavers
Several dead bodies have very suddenly returned to life. Not only that, but they seem to be possessed by very courteous and polite spirits. So there are reports of half-rotten beings bowing down to young ladies and kissing their hands or holding open doors for other passersby. It's really nice, sure, but also really disturbing.
In the middle of the night, there is a spirit that keeps turning off all of the street lamps. Fortunately, there aren't many cars on the roads at this time. Unfortunately, the spirit is also putting out all of the cars' headlights as well. And no cell phone lights or flashlights work during that time either and it's starting to cause a lot of accidents.
There are eight blocks in downtown Tokyo that have taken to repeating endlessly. As you reach the end of the eight block, you find yourself stepping onto the first block again. No amount of turning or redirecting yourself will allow you to leave the eight blocks - until you stop by a cafe with a couple of bunny girls out front and make a purchase, that is.
Many in Tokyo want nothing more than to be on the cutting edge of technology! And there are some wealthy people who want to be even further ahead than everyone else. That's why they've sent out a general call for new types of technology to be brought to them. And if what you bring is impressive enough, you might get yourself a nice reward~
Several farms on the outskirts of the city have reported a very sudden and tremendous growth in their goats. That's right, there are two-story tall goats hanging out with the other farm animals. Other than being very large, they seem mostly the same. But since goats will eat anything, well... Let's just say a couple of farmers are going to need new barns soon.
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 then Uraraka is coming up to him? Like she doesn't know him and his heart aches for a moment. Just... just how many of his friends are dead because he wasn't at home...?
He forces himself to swallow the emotion.]
I think I'm trapped too.
no subject
Ah, I guess that's not surprising. It'd be worrisome to be the only person trapped here. Not that I would want you to be stuck in this situation with me. [She lets out a small sigh.] But maybe we can get out of this if we work together! I must have walked through this block at least four times. What about you?
no subject
No, I get it. Better to have company than getting totally lost alone, right?
I think I'm on my third lap.
no subject
Y-Yes! I would never think I'd get lost in Tokyo of all places, but I guess this is a unique situation. It isn't everyday that we'd be stuck on the same few blocks in some strange loop. Does it count as lost if we know where we are technically?
Not that semantics are important! I'm more concerned about getting out of this!
no subject
Yeah... Tokyo might be big, but you get used it pretty fast. But... this looping thing is new.
Maybe there's some kind of trick to get out of this? Like you have to talk to somebody or you need to do something specific? It's weird that there isn't anything that points it out, but I guess that's how some things are... [We've lost him to mumble city.]
no subject
[Like unlocking a quest or fulfilling a requirement to progress in the story so she thinks.
She doesn't say anything for a moment as Izuku devolves into mumbling. A moment longer and she breaks into laughter.] Ahahaha! You're silly. I don't know what you're saying, but you're taking this very seriously.

[Uraraka sobers up at the statement about worrying anybody. She's dead, jerk!!! Can't just say that to someone who's dead!!! Who's going to miss someone that's dead. Other than apparently other dead people and maybe Gods. But dead still means dead.
She smiles though.] Wah... you're right. That just makes it more important that we get out of this.
Where are my manners. We haven't formally met have we? I'm Uraraka Ochako.
no subject
We'll just have to try some things.
Ah... no, we haven't. [Yes, we have.] I'm Midoriya Izuku, but you can call me Deku.
no subject
I feel like with Deku, we can definitely do it. [Hopefully, Izuku's heart isn't aching too much.]
Let's see what are on the blocks we keep saying. We can still enter buildings, right?
no subject
Y-Yeah!
Um, I think so? I haven't tried it yet, but I don't know why we couldn't.
ilu mira :3
We can try that right now then!
[She grabs Izuku by his wrist and glances around them. Oh right. There's that weird cafe with the bunny girls. That seems to be a good place to start. She's going to gently tug the other along into the cafe.]
liar...
T-The bunny girl cafe?!
Why don't you believe me? He gets to collect all his frands
Why not? It's right here. I'm sure they're very nice!
[That's probably not the actual problem. Especially for Izuku.] We got to start somewhere. It'll be fine!
they don't remember him!!!
His face is immediately bright red.]
I-- Yes?
[The only answer to "why not" is "I'm going to turn into a tomato."]
minor details!
Your face is turning so red!
[She laughs a little.]
We can go somewhere else first. [Being a weenie, Izuku.]
no subject
N-No! It's okay!
[He looks like he might bolt.]
no subject
I can go in myself. You look more ready to run than to enter this place.
[She smiles at him brightly. Uraraka is kind of concerned for this guy. Maybe he's just really shy or something. It would make her feel a little bad to drag him into the place if he isn't comfortable.]
no subject
I... Um! It's fine! It's probably better if we go together!
[He's dying on the inside.]
no subject
[She beams at him despite him internally dying. She holds her hand out to him.] We'll be fine as long as we work together, right?
no subject
[He can do this! He can definitely do this.
He'll take Uraraka's hand.]
It'll be easier to do it together.
