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!

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.

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.

Dark Deeds

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.

Endless Eight

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.

Further Forward

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~

Giant Goats

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!

Courtly Cadavers

[Seeing dead bodies coming to life hardly registers to Toushirou. It’s something that isn’t particularly out of the norm for the shinigami, especially since after everything that has happened.

Nonetheless, he can’t really allow half-rotten corpses to walk around, so he prevents one of the corpses from getting close to a young lady, forcing them back.]

Go and rest in peace already. There’s nothing left for you here.

[He’s not sure if he’s able to send these spirits to peace, so talking to them is one way of going at it.]

Dark Deeds

[Toushirou pauses when he hears the accidents occurring, a soft sigh escaping from him as he leisurely jumps across rooftops to survey the damage.

His eyes narrows the moment he notices the spirit.

It’s enough for him to draw his zanpakuto, lowering his reiatsu enough to start to freeze the spirit in its tracks.]

Wildcard

[Make up your own prompt!]

Endless Eight

Do you know what’s going on here?

[Because Gohan’s getting tired of flying around in what seems to be in circles.

He stops in mid-flight, probably hovering over a person before he comes down to land beside them.]

Something keeps looping me back.

Giant Goats

[Goats.

Gohan is a bit bemused as he notices the giant goats. It’s enough to make him fly above them, just out of their reach, in order to get a better glimpse of them.

He rubs the back of his head, wincing when one of the giant goats ate another barn.]

Wildcard

[Feel free to make up your own!]

❚❚❚ Courtly Cadavers

[This is just creepy. Especially since these guys don't seem inclined to accept rejection. Riza's taken to distracting a couple of them so some poor girl can run off screaming.]

I'm sure you're very nice, but she wasn't interested.

[And just to make it clear.]

Neither am I.

❚❚❚ Endless Eight

[Riza has no reason to think anything is amiss at first. Sure she's passed several shops that look just alike multiple times now, but there are Starbucks on every corner in some towns, why not multiple versions of that bunny cafe? And maybe they all hire look-a-like staff?

No, that's too much.]

Excuse me?

[Yes, you coming from the other direction.]

I was told there was a library on this street, but I've been walking for some time now. Have you seen it?

❚❚❚ Wildcard

((ooc: Got an idea you want to do instead? Go for it. I'm up for pretty much anything. Not sure - pm me or hit me up at

purkle))

[Courtly Cadavers]

Oh, excuse me.

[Shion accidentally bumps his shoulder against someone and turns to apologize. Unfortunately that someone turns out to be something. A dead body come back to life that is now turning back to him to take his hand and—

... Kiss it.

Shion’s eyes go wide and he struggles with what he should do. Pull away? Scream? Take a picture? Stare...?]

Please... Um...

[Endless Eight]

This is completely ridiculous. It makes no sense.

[Shion sighs and furrows his eyebrows. He’s sure he’s seen this café at least three times on his way back to his home temple. He turns to look up the normal looking street and then back down it. Is something playing tricks on his eyes?

Looking lost and a little perplexed, Shion continues down the street without another glance at the bunny girls. And sure enough he sees the same café again after a few minutes of walking.]

Something is playing a trick on me.

[Shion, do you not see those bunny girls waving at you?]

[Giant Goats]

[It’s not only the farmers that might need help dealing with the goats. It is Shion too. Shion’s abnormal white color hair and red eyes seems to have caught the attention of the goats and they’ve started chasing after him.]

A-Ahh!

[All Shion can do is run. ~~which isn’t very fast because what is cardio~~ The goats are gaining on him and who knows what will happen to him if they get him in their mouths or under their hooves. Help!]

one; courtly cadavers

[ Teddie wasn’t sure how he even ended up here, or what people were talking about when they were going on about a god…but he certainly didn’t understand the weird get up these guys were in! Maybe Junes was having a really weird event? Wouldn’t be the first time…

Tilting his head, he noticed how polite and courteous the zombie-people were being so he thought he just had to be the same! ]

Thank you for the compliment, but a humble bear like me doesn’t know anything about gods or such! I’m actually looking for a friend of mine! He’s kind of tall and goes by “Sensei”!

two; endless eight

[ Teddie had spent a good half hour wondering why everything in this place looked the same. When he finally noticed that he was just walking in a circle, he stopped and hopped from one section to the other, noticing how it just continued.

Frowning, he immediately looked around to see something that was different; trying to see if maybe someone he knew was having the same problem. Too bad a pair of blue eyes landed on a girl in a bunny suit. Teddie only grins and slides up to her. ]

You’re an unbearably welcome sight! Would you like to go on a date with me?

three; wildcard

[ Please let me know if you’d like to do something else! ]

one; dark deeds

[ Pidge wasn’t sure how much how she could be with chores and cleaning, but when the lights started going out, she knew she could help in some way. Looking at the light, she was careful to open up the small console, trying to mess with the wires and get the light back on. However, as soon as she would get one on, she would see another one turn off. Grumbling, she immediately went to the next, and the next, until it was a street full of lights that she had fixed and then subsequently turned off.

Stomping her foot, she could feel the lights flicker with her own kinesis as she cursed. ]

Whoever you are, stop being a coward and fight me in an actual fight! You know…with computers and stuff!

two; further forward

[ Pidge was sitting in the line of potential candidates with new technology. While she is messing with the computer, her small, pyramid-like robot beside of it, she was eying the competition. Small robots, new phones…something with board and….a light? Either way, she wasn’t impressed. After all, this robot she made could do a bunch of things! It could sync up with many different products, hack them or even fix them! It was like a swiss army knife, but a robot!

She thought maybe she should give it a name, but she couldn’t figure out what to name it. Moving her hand over it’s outer shell, there was a small smile spreading on her lips. ]

Rover. That’ll be your name!

three; wildcard

[ Please let me know if you want to do something in particular! ]

Dark Deeds

[Junko is happy to just stroll along, no matter the time of day. It's no skin off of her teeth if anything happens to anyone, and, well, she's never really had many problems with other people. In the normal sense of those words.

However, when the street lights start to go out, she stops and looks around, curious.]

Oh no! I didn't grant any prayers about this. What is going on?!

[Always better to play dumb. They underestimate you then.

Just as she goes to take a step further the sound of car's brakes squealing down the road as it breezes past her, no lights, no horn, just a ton of metal, plastic and glass nearly crushing her.]

ALRIGHT! WHO DID THAT? WHO DARES!

Endless Eight

[She doesn't necessarily hate Tokyo. It has his benefits, of course, but she normally just has a great loathing for people in general. She's only come to this part of town to get something that isn't available in the other sections (a candy she's taken a liking to), but she's passed by the stupid bunny girl cafe like five times. Which means she's traversed the same damn eight blocks five times.

As such, her patience is at an end and she's thirsty. Since there are no other cafes or convenience stores in the area, she stops over to the nearest cosplaying waitress and glares.]

Bubble tea, with extra bubbles. And black and white cookies. Now.

Giant Goats

[She's heard about it, but, well, it's a thing of beauty to watch in person.

Goats, the size of school buildings, eating everything in sight.]

Wow, I've seen some things, but this really takes the bear.

Courtly Cadavers:

W-W-Wha-!!!!!

[On one hand. It should be very flattering to have someone kiss your hand in this day and age. That's something that doesn't happen these days. The reality though is that having a dead body touching you, much less kissing any part of your body is gross...

Uraraka can't help but shriek a little as she slams her fist into one of the decomposing bodies..

This is unsolicited physical contact and she did not sign up for corpse smooches of any kind.]

Endless Eights:

I'm sure I've passed this shop before...

[Uraraka is standing in front of the shop with the bunny girls and tapping her chin thought. The second time she passed it she thought it was coincidence. The third time she started getting suspicious. The fourth time she stopped and knew that there was something going on. Why was she stuck on these blocks???]

Excuse me! I'm trying to get out of here!

[She quickly makes her way towards the closest person.]

Wildcard:

[Hit me up with something else!

Courtly Cadavers

[As if this place was at any shortage of weird, more and more surprises seem to be popping up like tulips in the spring. On one hand, it's kinda cool in that he'll never get bored, but on the other hand?

Well, the other hand is currently being held and gently caressed in the palm of some half-dead freak, or a really good cosplayer... he can't tell anymore. Ryuji is so caught up in his own shock and if he's at all honest with himself, the fact that he's almost shitting his pants at this, that it takes a moment to react. It's when he feels the dry, scaly lips press against the soft, delicate skin of his hands that his reaction comes out in such a physically exaggerated manner that he could almost take out anyone who might be within reach of him.]

YO!! [He's going to be really loud about this too, apparently.] The hell man!? Prank gone too far. So not appreciatin' the gesture. You can hold a door open for me, but I draw the line at a dead man's lips on my hand!

[Help...?]

Endless Eight

[Alright. He's pretty sure he hasn't been looking at his phone upside-down, so when he finds himself right back at the start again, Ryuji's feet come to a screaming halt and he whips around to check behind him. For what? He's not really sure but something feels off about all of this and it's giving him the heebie jeebies. He can definitely count and he's up to three times now where the cute girls in the bunny outfits are calling out to him and beckoning him over.

Don't get him wrong - if it weren't for him being so damn confused right now, he'd take them up on the offer. He's more angry about the fact that he can't find his way around which prompts him to turn to the nearest person - you - and does what only the bravest of men do... the manliest of men. For he is a man's man.]

Uh, hey. [Sheepish smile as he half-turns his phone to show the map.] I'm tryin' to get to this bakery... any idea how to get there?

[He asks for directions.]

Giant Goats

[Give him a second. He's gotta rub his eyes for this one because either he hasn't been getting enough sleep since he got here and he's lost his damn mind or... no, there's no other explanation for it. He's definitely losing it. There is no way in hell those are goats the size of two story buildings grazing around on these farms. All he can really do is stand there for now, watching them with a dead look in his eyes.]

Guess that explains where all my protein powder went.

Wildcard!

[Got something else? Slam it down!]

Edited 2017-06-02 04:24 (UTC)

[Toss another dead hero into the mix~ Sorry Deku we aim to break you.]

Courtly Cadavers

Yes, yes. Everything seems to be perfectly normal- there's gentlemen being kind to ladies, showing the perfect amount of manners. Opening doors for ladies, bowing in apologies, and even some being a little bit more bold by kissing the tops of ladies hands and by Iida's book that is perfectly alright. What is not alright? The fact that despite their good manners- the corpses are down right slobs! They are just sloppily discarding precious body parts all over the place and guess who has to alert them to their misdeeds? That's right- Impeccable Iida~!

So.... Do you help the guy who is going around helping the corpses or do you save the poor corpses (and what remains of their ears) and distract Iida?

Wild card: You choose your own adventure!

COURTLY CADAVERS

[ He'd been sitting on a bench at the park when the dead started appearing, terrorizing and bewildering the people around him in equal measure. If he had a bag of popcorn, he'd be eating it.

A couple of half-rotting corpses wave at him in greeting when they see him. He waves back. ]

How polite. Plenty others could learn from them.

ENDLESS EIGHT

[ Mukuro knows a faint illusion when he sees it, as subtle and cutesy as this is. It's annoying and impressive in equal measure, which delights him to no end especially considering the amount of frustration that it will cause. He makes a beeline for the cafe after the first loop. He doesn't quite talk to the girls, not yet — although he does wave back at them when they do — but to the next closest to him who looks just about as confused as a person walking around in circles would. ]

Impressive dedication, don't you think?

[ The illusion, or the girls being outside all day doing their job mis- and redirecting everyone's attention, who knows? But he's of course going for the assumption that no one knows what the hell is going on and will just think he's being weird saying things out of the blue. ]

Perhaps a drink might cool your head.

WILDCARD

( bring your own tag!! )

Courtly Cadavers
[ From an assassin's the point of view, the dead getting up and moving around is not ideal. Not that Obi is responsible for any of these particular deaths, but it makes him think that it would be pretty bad if this had or did happen in Clarines.

That is, until one of the dead bodies, who was apparently intending to help an old lady carry her things, is smacked in the head with her handbag. Really hard, too, from what Obi gathers. Because the corpse topples over right into the street and flails.

And Obi, well... ]

Bwahahaha!! Awesome!!

[ Obi finds it hilarious. ]

Dark Deeds
[ Thankfully, Obi has excellent night vision. He's the most at home in the darkness.

The same cannot be said about most other people, and Obi avoids the mess of people by getting up on a lamp-post and peering down. ]

Uwaaah, those metal carriages sure are dangerous.

Endless Eight
What are they wearing?

[ No, seriously. What are they wearing? He's never seen bunny girls before. ]

wildcard

Dark Deeds
[ This guy is out wandering in a pajamas. He's at least wearing shoes...well, slippers.

Because he lost his oxygen tube and the Near Shore doesn't agree with him, he's really worn out and feels really weak. He's sitting against the wall of some building or other like a dying flower, mumbling inaudible words to himself. Up close it's something about "Nii-ni". Actually, in the end it's pretty much the only thing he's saying. ]

Endless Eight
[ Haruka has not faced the endless streets as such. He's heard about it from people passing, though, and has remained in place watching, instead of wearing himself out he's listened for the solution, and eventually he knows what to do. But dealing with salespeople is a hassle, and he usually lets Natsuki deal with those sorts of things, so he needs someone to help him out.

He listens, and he purposefully chooses to walk up to someone who, for one reason or other, won't turn down his requests. ]

Hey, excuse me? Could you help me with dealing with those people there?

Giant Goats
[ Having gotten hold of an oxygen tank that he can carry with him easily, he's somehow ended up getting dragged to the farm and there he stares up at the goat with a nostalgic look on his face. ]

Oh Don, you've grown so big~

[ Wrong goat, Haruka. ]

wildcard
[ Haruka can read thoughts and know things about people just from hearing their voice, that's always fun. ]

Dark Deeds

[The thought of accidents and lights going out without warnings has given Makoto plenty of reason to investigate, but when she rolls into this area of town on a strange motorcycle and realizes that it's headlights have winked out as well, she's realizes the full extent of the problem. Stepping off, the machine vanishing, she holds up a fist. Blue flame, an unnatural, almost radioactive seeming color surrounds it as she starts walking.

Pausing at the gap between two buildings, she peers into the darkness, her light source casting weird shadows in the gloom. A motion to one side catches her eye, and without thinking she sets herself into a fighting stance.

Calling out in a stentorian challenge, Makoto's voice rings out down an alley.]

Come out! There's no point in hiding down there!

Endless Eight

[Tokyo is a familiar enough place for Makoto, easy enough to move around in, but this district is new. She's not familiar at all with it, and so she marches through quickly, intent on making her way towards the next ward. Except, poof. Right back at the start. Blinking in surprise, she looks around at the humans nearby and goggles at you. Clearly you have all the answers, don't you?]

H-How?

Giant Goats

[Again with the unexpected, though this time with a bit of warning, Makoto stops on the outskirts of the farm and marvels at the enormous billy goat that's currently chewing on a tractor. It's...]

Magnificent. Impossible, but, certainly magnificent.

[Turning to whoever came with her, she flashes a smile.]

Why don't we go see if we can find him something more appropriate for dinner?

Wildcard

[Funk me up, friends! If you want to plot something with me, do so via PM or

intercession! Also, if you want me to avoid spoilers please let me know in your subject heading]

Courtly Cadavers

[Mabel had to admit, seeing a bunch of dead bodies running around was a little creepy to the poor young girl. At first, she was tempted to run as fast as she could wondering if they were going to eat her! Granted, they were really polite but she couldn't help but wonder if it was all just a trick or not. As she narrowed her eyes and pondered a little to herself. Should she attempt to talk to them or not?

Either way, it didn't take long for her to warm up to the undead beings.]

Oh, aren't you the ladies man? C'mon, let's go and see if there's any flowers around! I just know there's one with your name on it!

[Why yes, you are seeing a young girl dragging a dead body to a field of flowers. There's nothing wrong with that!]

Giant Goats

[The moment that Mabel had heard of a giant goats, she figured it was time for a visit to the local barn! While some might find it scary to be facing a giant creature ten times taller than you, that didn't seem to mind with the young girl.

Instead?]

Awwww, look at them! They're so cute! Quick, we should get them something to eat! They are growing goats, after all!

Wildcard

[Surprise me!]

[A: Endless Eight]

[At the end of the loop, when Tieria steps from the eighth block back to the first, the first thing he does is check behind an unobtrusive garbage can. Armed with a roll of bright red flagging tape, he’d been marking small, out of the way areas as he'd passed through in an attempt to prove if the area was truly trapped in a loop or if there was a different cause. It isn't until he sees the first mark he’d left behind, untouched and exactly as he'd left it, that Tieria feels confident confirming the veracity of the reports.]

So it is supernatural in nature... Then, what is the source?

[He could be commenting to his companion or to himself, depending on if anyone joined him for his investigation.]

[B: Jumping Jellyfish] (from TDM #13)

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!

[The beach is supposed to be a place for people to relax, to unwind while surrounded by the refreshing beauty of nature. It’s a place of peace, and generally speaking, things like weapons and murder are probably looked down upon.

So it’s a good thing that Tieria is a resident of the Far Shore or else he would’ve certainly stood out; poised at the end of a dock in business casual and armed with a handgun, he’s been systematically shooting down any jellyfish that dares to make their way to the beach. It’s solving one problem but creating another, as the living who have not been scared away in the first place are growing increasingly concerned over the amount of dead jellyfish washing ashore.]

[C: Wildcard]

[Hit me up with something else and I will roll with it. Or, you can contact me at

byobeamspam or by PM to plan something out.]

[Komaeda supposes he'd find this a little weirder, people coming back from the dead and all, if that wasn't essentially something that's already happened to him just for him to be here. After all, if he died and is now alive (in a sense) here, as with all the other gods and shinki, it seems kind of silly to be arbitrarily afraid of zombies.

He's not even sure what the big difference is between them and the zombies, really, though clearly there is one. He hasn't met any obvious rotting corpses as gods or shinki. He supposes the decomposition and clearly different nature of the zombies might at least have the potential to be intimidating, though, if they weren't acting so polite. It's hard to be scared of a monster that's courteously holding doors for you, or lifting a dilapidated hat as you pass.

If Komaeda is anything, he's curious and confused.]

I'm really not sure if this qualifies as good or bad luck...is it both at once...?

Dark Deeds

[The biggest problem with being a god of fortune, while having such polarized luck himself, is that the luck Komaeda creates can come into conflict with the luck that he causes, good or bad. He has influence over the fortunes of others, but his own remains not just outside his reach, but as potent as anything his godly abilities can conjure. Which means that around him, any good fortune he tries to create, his own inherent bad luck promptly attempts to crush. The end result is that wherever he is, with anything that immediately or will eventually affect him...he can't create anything but a perpetual draw. Good luck and bad, constantly at war, never winning.

The upshot is that for every crash he tries to prevent, another one happens. And Komaeda knows that. So he's borderline panicking as he tries to distance himself from the wicked spirit and its street of influence, because god though he may be, he can't counter the effect it's having up close. He has to be far enough away that his bad luck won't kick in.]

Out of my way, please! I have to get out of here before I cause any more accidents!

Giant Goats

[Honestly...Komaeda doesn't really know what to make of this one. He's simply staring at one of the massive goats, head cocked, a thoughtful look on his face.]

It's bad luck for whoever owned that barn, I suppose... [He's talking to himself, hardly paying attention to whether anyone is near enough to hear him.] I wonder how it happened, though? I've heard of my luck making fantastically improbable things happen, but this just seems impossible.

Wildcard

[Any prompt of your own devising is fine!]

o1. DON'T FALL APART ON ME!!

IYAAAAA~!

[ That's the sound the woman, standing there on some city block with a mortified look on her face, makes. Crouched down and holding her purse close to her in a panic, one might think she's being attacked. She certainly thinks she's being attacked.

Why, exactly?

Maybe it has something to do with the boy(?) standing there in front of her, looking more than a bit dumbfounded. Or maybe, just maybe, it's the fact that this young man is holding what appears to be some poor unfortunate person's detached arm. Someone's very bony arm—actually, it's more bone than anything else, really.

Yeah, that probably has something to do with it.

Or, optimistic thought, she might be screaming about the very confused gentleman zombie ™ standing there between them.

But honestly, she's probably screaming about the boy holding someone's disembodied arm, let's be real here. ]

M-Miss, this really isn't what you think...

[ He starts to wave his right hand (wait no, the other one, he's still holding someone's arm with that hand), backing away slowly.

HE MIGHT HAVE A FEW REGRETS. A little help might be nice! ]

o2. GOING BUMP IN THE NIGHT.

[ To say that Chrono is used to circumstances like this is a bit of a misnomer—he's used to them, when a demon is involved. When accidents are more maliciously manufactured, and certainly not the byproduct of some capricious spirit's innocent whimsy gone awry.

But that doesn't change the fact that, after tracking the spritely specter throughout the city, the demon-god stops dead in his tracks the moment he hears tires screech, and the gut-wrenching crunch of metal colliding head-on with metal nearby.

And sitting in an intersection, two cars, both with their headlights disabled, in a mangled in a heap of metal and destruction. Suddenly, finding that spirit (the one that very likely caused this mess) moved so far down Chrono's priority list. Breaking into a sprint toward the scene, he begins to steel himself. This... isn't going to be pretty.

And without his horns—

No, there must be something he could do. There has to be. Surrounded by the mangled remains of what once was two vehicles, but now is some twisted, gruesome conjoined mess that he had to attempt to pull the survivors from...

If anyone could survive something like that...

She'd still insist on helping them, wouldn't she? Even at the cost of part of her life. Refusing would never be an option—Rosette would just make the choice for them. Even now, she made that choice for him, even if she was nowhere to be found.

Maybe that's what pushed him even harder; made Chrono run even faster, to try to help. No horns, no contractor, and no astral line to tap into, there had to be something he could do here! Right?! He can't just leave them there to die!

Time to find out what he was really capable of here. ]

oX. WILDCARD.

[ Got an idea that isn't here? hmu either in this thread or on Plurk at pearlescent! ]

[Courtly Cadavers]

[She's seen plenty of B-rated horror films to know a zombie when she saw one. What she found more disturbing than the actual walking corpses was to see them being so gentle to their...prey? Victim? It was really hard to narrow down just what to call those who came to close and were subjected to such politeness.]

....Guess we can add this to the list of things I'd never expect to see.

[There was no escaping such kindness herself, one coming too close for comfort. Elena lifts a hand, palm out, as if the action would cause the creature to stop in its tracks.]

That's close enough. Go find yourself another person to bother.

[Dark Deeds]
[Darkness never seemed to bother Elena, which made her more apt to go out and enjoy evening strolls so she could enjoy the sky. What did bother her, however, was reckless drivers. Such as the one that passed by her so closely that she could feel the side mirror graze against her arm.]

WHAT IN THE-?! [She's furious, face flushed momentarily in anger, hands clenched at her sides, turning to yell at the retreating vehicle.] TURN ON YOUR DAMN LIGHTS BEFORE YOU GET SOMEONE KILLED!

[Wild Card!]
Bring your own tag!

Courtly Cadavers

[Courtly politeness or not, being kissed by something dead is disgusting and Diana's not the least bit shy about expressing her distaste. She shudders dramatically and snatches her hand away, giving the corpse an fierce glare as if assessing whether to smack it across the face. In fact, without really thinking about it, Diana raises her fist but it stops mid-strike. On one hand, the vile creature could use a liittle discouragement from going up to pretty young ladies such as herself and a solid backhand to the face feels like both an reasonable and reliable solution to the problem.

But on the other hand. Dead thing. Eww. She'd have to touch it again and that's just gross.]

What to do, what to do...

[Is teaching it some proper manners worth getting her hands dirty? Decisions, decisions.]

Dark Deeds

[After the lights go out, a loud clang and rattle followed by a muttered stream of blistering curses in a sharp British accent as Diana walks straight into a trash can. Can't a girl walk and think at the same time without inanimate objects trying to kill her all over again? Another loud clang resonates in area as an irritable Diana kicks the offending trashcan.]

Stupid trashcan! When we find the things causing these blackouts, we're beating them up first. Then you can rend them.

[It's only right that the little trolls suffer horribly before they die.]

Giant Goats

And now it's over-sized livestock? Do we look like goatherds to you?

[It's not clear just who Diana's complaining to up to in the Heavens but she's certainly bold about it, yelling at the sky and stomping her foot. It's just bluster really, letting off steam.
