TEST DRIVE # 23

TEST DRIVE # 23



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.


Gross Garbage


Waste removal has become an intense process in many cities in Japan. Because the sorting of different trash can be very complicated, some residents just end up saying to heck with it. However, the neighbours are vigilant, and heap curses upon those who break the rules. Putting out the wrong thing on the wrong day, mixing plastics with the burnables, putting out the biodegradables the night before, which attracts crows that scatter the rotting food all over the place… the infractions are many.
Will you join in cursing the ones who can’t follow the rules, or perhaps instead gracefully try to mend their ways?


Honoured Helper


For the last 20 years, Hanako has worked faithfully at her cleaning job, 10 hours a day, 7 days a week, without a single day off.
The momentous achievement was celebrated with her coworkers, but it was unanimous among them that Hanako really should take some time off! But the woman is stubborn, and is completely unwilling to take the time offered. (What would she do with herself, even?)
All her friends and coworkers can do is pray that someone can convince her to take a well-earned rest… It might take some heavenly intervention.


Ingenious Insects


While crows are famous for being clever, there seems to be an insect following in their footsteps. Rhinoceros beetles have been getting in everywhere. It’s late in their lifespan and people are generally hoping the lot of them die off soon, but in the meantime people have been coming home to find the large beetles getting into every room, even when they’re carefully closed up. Probably the only ones thrilled with this are kids who like to collect the bugs for fighting matches.
Residents of the Far Shore will be able to see that there are beetle-like ayakashi running with the mundane ones, and they seem to be on the hunt for something.
Try to figure it out, protect the kids who might mistake an ayakashi for a real rhinoceros beetle, or kill every bug with fire?


Jilted John


John’s girlfriend Julie says she loves him, but she’s up and left for another guy named Gordon. Julie is cruel, heartless, a slut and a bitch! Gordon thinks he’s tough (so what if he’s bigger, better looking and more trendy than John) but he’s actually a moron, a cheap creep and a puff!
John is now desperately wanting someone to deck Gordon the moron good. Preferably smashing his face in. Help Jilted John out?


King’s Keeper


King Koopa, a stout, shorthaired two-year-old tabby, is headed straight for YouTube fame as a video-game-playing cat. Or he was, until, just last week, he completely lost interest in the keyboard. His desperate owner has been trying everything: bird screensavers, a catnip mouse, even treats hidden in the keys... but nothing brings back Koopa's love of the game. Is he just camera shy? Feeling blue? His owner needs divine intervention to help teach a young cat his old trick!





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!
When and if you're ready to join the game, check out the Taken Characters before throwing in a Reserve and starting on your Application
Have fun!

Honored Helper

[ This world was full of weird and shitty prayers. Someone works a lot cleaning, is apparently good at it, but they don't want her to work? Always having someone around to clean the area up, every day, was supposed to be normal. Maybe they're sick of the old woman- Who turns out to not be that old. Man, what a pain. ]

Hey, lady.

[ What a great thing to hear this young man call out to a diligent worker. He's got more amazing things to say- his plan will work and it'll be awesome. Just watch it pan out perfectly. ]

Your bosses say you're fired.

[ ... Why was she staring at him like he looked funny? Or like she hadn't even noticed him until now. ]


Jilted John

[ This was the guy they were sent to help out? He was probably the most pathetic, weak-willed small fry that he's seen in the time that he knows. Without even thinking on the memories he doesn't have, Judar's pretty sure this is one of the most pathetic people in all universes. Prayers were supposed to be answered, but this seems so... below him.

Not even the heavens should want to help this guy out. They're not even worth taking that wand thing out and hitting them. ]


There's no way I'm wasting my talents on some flub that can't even hold their ground. If you were even a little bit more awesome, I'd be fine with kicking that guy's ass. This though... You're less than snot.


King's Keeper

[ He tried with no luck, and honestly had no understanding about half of what this whole thing was about in the first place. Either way, the stupid cat wasn't doing much of anything, so Judar was ready to bail and go enjoy doing something that was worth his time. Except he feels something tugging at when he was about to leave. ]

Oi, let go! Who said you had any right to touch hair this awe-

[ That's about the point that King Koopa manages to get his paw into the bottom hair pocket of the braid, which somehow manages to release the air that was in it. It'd been that way since he first woke up in those shitty heavens and a cat just ruined the whole appearance. It's left the magi staring with wide eyes at the feline that was having a grand time with his braid. ]


Wildcard

[ For other ideas that come to mind, or dealing with Judar's amazing personality. ]

[Don't mind the snickering coming from this shinki as he watches the cat happily pull and tug on that absurdly long braid. Serves Judar right. Even if Kouga doesn't know a thing about the fellow shinki, it does mean he deserves it any less.

But it's watching the cat continue to play an idea comes to mind. There may be a quick answer to this prayer after all. With that, Kouga walks over to Judar and places a hand on either of his shoulders before not-so gently pushing him towards the computer.]


Move it, pretty boy.

Dude.

[ Yata's voice sounds like he's caught trying not to crack up. Even if he should probably be a bit scandalized, he's really not.

Why would he be, when he'd been thinking the same thing? ]


I don't think you're going to have much luck finishing this prayer if you start it like that.

purr_ince: (Adrien | Stuck in a cage with my doubt)

[personal profile] purr_ince 2017-12-02 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Gross Garbage

[Adrien is shaking his head gently, a hand resting at his hip.]

Now everyone needs to calm down. Clearly we need to just get things organized better. That said if you sort it as you go it would be so much easier!

[Cheerfully, he's moving to tug forward a trash bin with four sections each painted a different color with a clear bag inside so that the color can be seen, there's a lid that he's holding in his hand It too has each of the colors on it with words labeled on each one.]

This would work much better right?

Honoured Helper


[Gently, Adrien's hand is coming to rest on Hanako's shoulder, a light soothing touch, the smile on his face is dazzling.]

Your friends tell me you work very, very hard. I'm impressed by your dedication and work ethic - it's admirable but everyone needs a little down time sometimes.

[Carefully he's picking his words. He can see already the flare of stubborn fire in the woman's eyes but he's pressing forward.]

Surely you must have some hobby you've been missing. Maybe family members and friends who would be delighted to have more time with you. [A pause and a sad smile.] Why don't you take the time to explore the city, take in a movie or a show, pamper yourself a bit with a trip to a hot spring or spa?

[Adrien nods to himself.] I know it feels good to be needed. If you work yourself too hard and wear yourself down you won't be able to help anyone.

Jilted John


[A small frown settles on the blond's lips green eyes drifting closed.]

I'm not going to punch some guy because your girlfriend left you. She wasn't happy and she left. That's not this other guy's fault. I don't know the full story here but this isn't something that's going to fix your problem.

[There's still something in his expression.] It's not right of you to call her such horrible things either. You don't.. It doesn't matter how much a girl breaks your heart there are somethings you just don't do or say.

[His eyes close as he tries to reign in his distaste. There are somethings Adrien just isn't okay with guys being jerks to girls is one of them.] I think you're the biggest part of your problem. If calling her a slut and bitch is any indication of how you treated her on an average day I'd say you got what you deserved.


King’s Keeper

[Adrien gives a slow lazy blink at the cat after listening to his owner. After a few more minutes the blond scoops up the cat carefully warily shooting a look at his owner, it's quiet and soft but then he's purring at the cat seeking to calm and bond with his fellow cat... Even if Adrien technically isn't a real cat.]

He might be depressed or maybe you're stressing him out. Has anything changed in the past week or so? Cats are good a picking up on stress, changes, and strange tones in your voice. Changing anything about your daily routine stresses them out, even moving stuff can mess with them.

[ Someone else is watching Adrien's attempts at convincing Hanako from a ways away, posed coolly (and antiheroically) leaning in the nearest doorframe. Her arms are crossed, and one leg is propped against the frame.

When the attempts prove unsuccessful, obviously that's her cue to chuckle knowingly. ]


Logic has never swayed a lady's heart.

[Futaba just happens to be sitting nearby while Adrien is giving this guy the business. She didn't really appreciate his tone when discussing his girlfriend, either, but she's hardly the type to start in on this kind of lecture herself. She has been listening from behind her laptop screen to the whole exchange, though, and when Adrien finishes, she slams it shut and jumps up all of a sudden to point at John.]

Ohhhhhh, and there it is! Adrien off the turnbuckle with a flying cat leap! There's no coming back from that!

Gross Garbage

[Lili cannot believe that she's wound up having to deal with this mess. First of all, it's disgusting! Dealing with literal trash!! And second, why was it so hard for people to realize that they should do things the way they're meant to be done?

Letting out a huff, Lili kicks a trash bag, watching the contents spill out and wrinkling her nose at the smell.]


Ugh...! I feel like cursing the trash is just cursing me!

King's Keeper

[While she might not have much (any) knowledge of computers, Lili is pretty happy to try and help out with a cat.]

Okay, King Koopa~ If you do this, I'll give you lots of sweet belly rubs.

[She is speaking in a child-like voice to the cat, trying to tempt the... completely uninterested creature, huff.]

WILD CARD

Is everything alright?

[ She'd heard the aggravated exclamation and come to investigate, but stops short at the sight of Lili and the spilled garbage all over. Her expression twitches, looking torn between wrinkling her nose at the smell and laughing at the expression currently on the other shinki's face. ]

Oh, dear. This is a good deal messier than the prayer indicated, isn't it? Do you need some help?

If it's not responding to physical attention, it probably needs treats to reinforce the behaviors like any animal.

[Obviously, so he thinks.

Yoon has no idea who Lili is, he was just asked to help out.]


I'll bet his owner started with that and then stopped giving rewards, so the cat stopped doing those weird gestures for their photo.

[Camera. He means camera.]

Ingenious Insects

[It was a good thing she'd gotten here when she had. If it had just been normal beetles, it might not have been such a huge problem. Unfortunately, there was something much more dangerous lurking in their midst. Not wanting to cause a panic, Marinette had settled for taking more of an indirect role so far.]

Don't worry, everyone! As inconvenient as things may seem now, this too shall pass~

[And as much as she wanted to believe that, she was still keeping a close eye on the groups of kids who seemed determined to catch the silly insects.]

Jilted John

[Her posture and facial expression were practically screaming Ladybug, despite it being Marinette standing in front of John. She's clearly not happy, and not at all afraid of letting it show.]

Bullying Julie's new boyfriend is not going to solve anything, and will only cause you more problems in the long run.

[But she's not entirely heartless, and she can certainly understand feeling jealous when the object of one's affections starts paying attention to someone else.]

Perhaps, instead of trying to put them down, you might try reaching out to them - together or separately - to talk. It might not bring her back to you, but it might help you feel better.

King's Keeper

[Admittedly, she was excited about this one. Having listened to the cat's owner for a few minutes, she'd since been excused to address the feline himself.]

What's the matter, minou? Feeling a little burnt out? I'm sure your papa doesn't want to force you into doing something you don't really want to do.

[The aforementioned papa might have thought her a little odd if he were watching, given that she's speaking to the cat as she would a friend, but old habits die hard. How long had it been since she'd seen Chat, anyway?]

Mmm... maybe you just need a little break. [At that, she's sitting in the computer chair with the tabby on the desk in front of her.] Or maybe you need a new game~

Choose Your Own Adventure!

[What it says on the tin. Throw something random my way. Go nuts, lovelies~]

[He's hanging back watching Marinette, his hand rubbing at the back of his neck. She's been far kinder than he would be but he supposes that's why she's the god and he isn't.

Ah, but it's so nice to to see her like this. Even if it's obvious to him she doesn't approve of this person's wish she's still doing her best to help him. As expected of his god.Moving to them he's taking a seat at her side.]


I don't think anything will bring her back but it would give you some closure for sure. Then you'll be able to walk away and move on to bigger and better things. Find someone new. Maybe she just wasn't the girl for you.

[His god decided to take this prayer, but to Kagaho, it seems like a complete waste of time. He watches the cleaning staff chatter on about old Hanako and her work ethic from his chosen spot against the wall, then notices movement out of the corner of his eye.

Oh. That must be Hanako. Hard at work still with her mop and bucket. Once she gets in earshot, he raises his voice enough for her to hear.]


Keep up the good work.

[Because why should someone stop doing her job just because other people want them to slack off?

Of course, this is the opposite of what he's supposed to be doing here, so if you came here with him on this prayer, you may want to intervene...]



Ingenious Insects

I told you I need that one!

[He didn't come here to make little kids cry, but that's how it's ended up. He's standing between them and the ayakashi, but there's nothing he can do until they get to safety and his temper has gotten the best of him. Though he's an imposing figure and you can practically feel the anger radiating off of him, there's something almost panicked about the look on his face. And if you happen to be his god and able to feel the deeper emotion behind all of this, there's a sinking sort of despair as well.]

Wildcard

[Feel free to throw something else at him! Edgelords with rage issues probably aren't the best shinki to take to help out with cute cats or petty neighborhood garbage disputes.]

[ It takes Orihime a moment or two to work up the courage to slide up next to Kagaho so she can lean in and whisper to him. ]

Excuse me, but um... Aren't we supposed to convince Miss Hanako to take a break?

[ She's smiling somewhat nervously and really hoping he takes it as the helpful suggestion it was meant to be. She doesn't want to give anyone the wrong impression on her first attempt to help with a mission. ]

[personal profile] reinaissance 2017-12-03 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Gross Garbage ]

WRIST! WRIST! CHEST!

[ Rei has a broom. Rei has a pile of garbage. Crows want the pile of garbage.

Rei is wielding the broom like a shinai and fending the crows off from the pile of garbage. Those with good eyes may notice she stops her strikes short of actually hitting any birds, but she does give them enough close calls to send them squawking in the other direction.

Unfortunately, there also seem to be no end to them. ]


[ Ingenious Insects ]

[ Rei is stalking a bug.

She's being very casually dispassionate about it. The bug itself won't feel its eyes on her. But she is definitely tracking this one particular beetle as it makes its way around the Near Shore.

Something strange is going on, and it wouldn't do to strike too soon. ]


[ King's Keeper ]

[ Rei is seated on the floor with her feet tucked beneath herself. King Koopa lolls to one side of her. An ignored video console sits on the other.

Rei herself is watching one of King Koopa's YouTube videos. For context. ]


He really did play them. How very intriguing.

[[ ooc: if your character is a god, feel free to assume Rei is your shinki! ]]

Rikku's spent the last few minutes just silently watching Rei stalk. She's kind of surprised this girl has the patience. Then again, she's surprised she's spent so long spectating. She should probably help out or something.
]

Hey there! Figured out your battle plan yet?

[ She waves cheerfully from her perch. She's been crouching on a low garden wall this whole time. Hopefully her big mouth didn't frighten the prey away. ]

Orihime Inoue | Bleach | Shinki

[personal profile] rejecting 2017-12-03 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Gross Garbage ]

[ Orihime is no stranger to the complications of garbage day. In fact, she has a very detailed chart at home that she made to remind her of the basics. Her preparedness doesn't seem to have helped her in this mission though. Even once she's recreated her trash day instructions, she isn't making much progress.

She's already covered in Garbage, thanks to her efforts. There are coffee grounds smeared across her shirt, slimy papers stuck to the bottom of one of her shoes, and a banana peel somehow sticking out of the back of her hair. She's had a few run ins with crows along the way, so she looks pretty worse for wear.

She's not giving up though! After realizing she can't clean up the mess by herself, she's taken to educating others on the proper trash day procedures. Or well, she's trying anyway. She's heading to the houses that seem the most plagues with the problem, and she's coming off like an unwanted solicitor almost.
]

Ah-- I'm sorry! I didn't mean to accuse anyone, I just wanted to show you this chart for trash days to make it easier! I can clean up the mess, so--

[ She jumps, breaking off and wincing as another door is slammed in her face. ]




[ Ingenious Insects ]

[ One might find Orihime out on this nice day, staring intently at a tree trunk. Upon closer inspection, she's actually inspecting a pair of large beetles rather closely. She's so focused, there are actually beads of sweat forming on her forehead. Unfortunately though, she still hasn't run across an ayakashi yet. This will probably become evident once she takes a step back, gasping and point an accusing finger at one of the bugs. ]

There! Did you see it?! Mr. Sadaharu definitely tried to snub Mr. Yuuchou! Heh, I knew I was good at detecting evil! He isn't a good friend at all.




[ King's Keeper ]

[ Orihime is pretty excited about the task at hand, because it isn't every day you get to sit down with a celebrity and actually help them out of a tough spot! She's already a pretty big fan of King Koopa, so that's why she looks just a little nervous as she sits across the table from him.

Once he's all settled in his comfortable chair, she stands, and holds up a decently sized sketchpad she's prepared for the task.
]

Good Morning Mr. Koopa! [ She bows deeply to the cat before she straightens up and fumbles with the papers. Then she clears her throat, doing her best attempt at a professional and business-like voice. ] My name is Inoue Orihime, and I'm happy to meet you. I hope you'll enjoy my presentation!

[ She flips open to the first page, showing a drawing she's made with Koopa in an astronaut's suit, ready to board a space shuttle as hundreds of fans cheer him on. ]

I know you might be tired of fame already, but just think about where this job can lead! You'll gain so many fans that they will have to offer you a job as an astronaut! Your fans will be so excited and they'll stand behind you all the way!

[ She smiles serenely, pointing to the visual aid before she prepares to flip to the next (probably totally unrelated) picture... ]

Honoured Helper: my breathing code is binary

[Of all the God's summoned, Hanako's friends call the one Goddess that isn't really a living being, can really get tired like a human or even human in origin. But does mean well enough.]

Hanako, have you thought about what hobbies you have or maybe you have those that are blood related to you that haven't seen you in ages. Perhaps you should see them.

[The advice is good, but it comes from a voice and a face with zero emotion as they give the advice. Maybe a Shinki could help.]

Ingenious Insects: everybody's looking for something

[The way Nona can tell from the beetle-like Ayakashi from the real ones is the fact the real beetles allow her to to 'talk' to them. The Ayakashi, as expected don't. So it's easy to coax one out a random child's hand while asking to see about it, and crushes in her hand.]

There, you are safe.

[All the child saw was a strange lady taking his prize Beetle and killing it. So he cries. Nona is a bit confused and turns to her shinki.]

The subject is confused, why is the child crying?

King's Keeper: can't find the password

[While making a housecall to this person, she asks for some 'private time' with King Koopa. And she allows him to come to her and tell her about all his problems. She tells the owner to come back in and she sits there stroking the chubby cat in her lap.]

Koopa tells the subject he doesn't really feel the love for video games that he once had. He tells me there's a lot of things going on with you. Would you feel fine telling about that?

[Her emotionless tone doesn't really sell it, so she may need a bit of help.]

Stop crying. It was going to get squashed eventually anyway, kid. That's life.

[That only makes things worse, of course. Kagaho looks back at Nona.]

Instead, he knows that this is things people don't need any more and he's not afraid of getting a little dirty and, well, there are so many strange things here. ]

[ Kuga doesn't really know why he cares. Why should he care about some garbage rules being broken? It has nothing to do with him. Fact still stands that he does apparently care (even though he keeps asking himself why) and that's why he picks up whatever discarded trash bag he just saw dumped, and after a tap to the culprit's shoulder and a clearing of throat to catch the person's attention, he shoves the garbage bag against their chest. Probably too close to their face for comfort. ]

You do~ know that littering is a crime?

I'm not littering, the trash goes there.

Not this one, not todaaay. You don't want a fine, do you~~~?

[ Why is he acting like he could give the culprit a fine? (Because once upon a time, he could)? After a few moments, the culprit retreats but it's not because of his words, it's because of the somewhat crazy look in his eyes. ]

[When Futaba hears 'get this woman to take a vacation,' she decides that the easiest way to achieve that is 'stop this woman from getting into her job.' And considering that she's not terribly fond of socializing with strangers to begin with, she decides the easiest way to accomplish this is via dual abuse of her status as a resident of the Far Shore and her god power.

Arriving bright and early and well ahead of Hanako, Futaba can be seen walking over to the digital card reader that the employees have to use to gain access to the lobby of the building. Closing her eyes, she touches the reader, concentrating for a few seconds before opening them again and smiling to herself.]


There. That should do it.

[When Hanako arrives and scans her card, there's a red light and a beep as she is denied entry. Futaba simply smirks.]

Jilted John

[Wow. That sure is some language. How did Futaba even get involved in this, anyway? This guy just sat down and started complaining. With a resigned sigh, she pushes up her glasses and turns to John.]

[ Koumyou knew better than to ask too many questions. For all that he's not cut out for this "god" thing, it's fine to go along with it. People were counting on him, so it'd be unfair to let them down. Ultimately, that's the real reason there's a grown man in full priestly regalia in a park, reclining entirely too casually in the grass.

To be fair, he's got a kitty companion settled comfortably on his chest. It's not like it's that weird that he just borrowed a someone's cat and decided to have an outing with it.
]

Sometimes, it's important to take life as it is. You can't be there for your partner if you don't.

[ Is he actively counselling a house cat? Well, yes, probably. Sometimes these things just work out that way. ]

[Gross Garbage]

[ Cursing people strikes Koumyou as entirely too much effort.

Somehow, that very desire to take the easy route has him trying to sort out the different categories of trash for one particularly recalcitrant old lady. She'd scolded him for trying to explain how aggravated her neighbors were.

One thing led to another, and now he's doing it all for her because she swatted him with a broom.

This doesn't seem like less work at all anymore.

By the way, I think the food waste was supposed to go yesterday but she's left the bag right...Oi.

Honored Helper

Ugh, come on, you deserve this! [Charlotte sits on top of a counter, one knee propped up, watching Hanako scrub the floors and struggling to ignore the scantily dressed soldier bugging her as she works.] Even your dumb boss thinks so, and I bet he's never scrubbed a floor in his life. Rich guys like that never have to work hard like you.

[There's a moments silence as Charlotte briefly fantasizes about what it must be like to be wealthy and never have to work. Sounds nice. The silence is broken by a frustrated sigh.]

Anyway, if you keep scrubbing floors now it's all you'll do for the rest of your life! What's the point in working hard if you don't get to enjoy the results? Go spoil yourself, you've earned it! Oh, you could buy a fancy new dress- something skimpy, you've absolutely got the figure for it- and go out on the town! Find yourself some cutie with a ton of cash and the next time you're here it'll be to tell these guys to go to hell-

[Charlotte freezes when she realises that while is Hanako ignoring her, someone else may still be within earshot. After a second she presses her hands against her cheeks and her voice is suddenly much cuter and childish.]

... Oh, honey, we're all just so worried about you! You poor sweetie, working so hard! Let's go get you some sweets and- and pet some kitties! Doesn't that just sound like so much fun? Hee hee!


Jilted John

[Okay, clearly Charlotte isn't going to hunt down some random guy and punch him for falling prey to a pretty girl's charms. Julie wanted an upgrade, batted her eyelashes and got one. That's how the world works. Sure, it's rough on John, but that's how the game is played and he'll just have to accept it. Really, it's the best case for him.

But that doesn't mean Charlotte is completely heartless. She can still try and make the heartbreak less than what it is. For a girl she'd supply icecream and take them on a shopping trip, a girl's day where they could happily trash every guy they knew as a form of therapy, but for a guy... Well, everyone knows the best way to get over someone is to fall for someone else, right?]


Ooh, that Julie just doesn't know what she's missing! [Charlotte bats her eyelashes and scootches over to sit entirely too close to John on this bench she's found him on. He had been stalking Julie's social media to hopefully prove how miserable she was with Gordon, something that didn't appear to be working as well as he'd hoped. Charlotte presses her chest against his shoulder and leans in close.] A handsome guy like you... I just don't know what she was thinking, hee hee! And you're so strong! I think I can feel muscles here... and here...

[John blushes but awkwardly pushes Charlotte's hand away from where she's prodding him, shaking his head. Charlotte bites her lip to keep her frustration at bay.]

Oh, sweetie, I swear I mean it! You don't need to worry about him! Here, Johnny, let me show you- [Charlotte delicately snatches John's phone out of his hands and starts scrolling through Julie's feed.] See, he's not even that handsome- ... I mean, he's not bad looking, but you're definitely above him. She's totally faking a smile there, you can tell by- ... wow, is that his car? Oh my god, look at that necklace he got her!

[Charlotte sits upright, pushing John away so she can properly focus on the phone.] And matching earrings? Are those diamonds? After they've been dating for a week? Holy crap, way to go, girl! Oh, man, and he's taking her on vacation next month! I wonder if his family owns that house or they're just staying there...

[John tries to reach for his phone but Charlotte just pushes him away, not paying him any mind now. She's fixated on these photos.]

Ugh, she's totally got him on a string too, I can't believe it! She won the fucking lottery! Some girls have all the luck. [She looks as disgusted as she does impressed. John just looks depressed.] I wonder if he has a brother...

No, please, keep going the way you were, I think it was working better.

[Ema was hanging outside of view long enough to hear Charlotte's abrupt switch in tone, but rather than seem surprised or disturbed, she looks like she finds the whole thing a little funny. With a slight wink, she pushes herself up and steps forward.]

Though I don't know that bothering her out of the workplace was what you were going for, hm?
