Test Drive #26

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!
Feel free to come up with your own ideas if these don't strike your fancy, though.
Ayakashi generally have a particular method by which to hurt humans. But an ayakashi has appeared that seems to be completely random in its methods, and anyone merely being near it becomes a target of its malevolence in a variety of ways. Dispatch this vagrant ayakashi before it harms far too many people.
Hitchhiking in Japan is rare. A friendly but lost-looking foreigner on the side of the road will attract fascination, concern and compassion. But a Japanese person doing the same likely won’t attract the same positive attention. Yet here is one Japanese person praying for a way to experience the adventure of the hitchhike. What to do for your follower? Well, going as a group of three sounds good, doesn’t it? Just be sure to attract sufficient attention to yourselves so that the drivers will properly notice you!
The X-Games, popular overseas, has suddenly become a hot topic with Japanese competitors taking top spots in skateboarding events. Burning to follow in their wake, young teens have taken to the streets, parks and basically anywhere with a strip of pavement to hone their skateboarding skills (which may or may not exist in the first place). While it’s good to see kids getting away from the computer screen, they’re also becoming a public nuisance: damaging handrails, narrowly missing pedestrians, and making noise right up to sunset. Answer the prayers of the kids yearning for glory? Answer the prayers of those wishing for peace in their neighbourhoods again? (...What’s a ‘skateboard’ anyway?)
An enthusiastic grade-schooler has started a new career helping people find love! She's hooked up teachers, classmates' parents, even random strangers… but it seems like all the matches she's trying to make this month have gone horribly wrong! Is she being stalked by an ayakashi or is this just bad luck? Either way, she needs help getting her mojo back.
In the trendy Ginza area, a mall has set up an elaborate indoor display of lights set to represent the real night sky. The key feature is the evening illumination show, where the various zodiac constellations are lit up to music. Strangely, there are growing rumours that those who view the show become even more focused on their horoscopes (much to the benefit of local fortune tellers). It’s even said that people’s personalities shift to become more stereotypical to their respective signs. Take in the show for yourself and see what happens?

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!

Puniverse-hopping hasn't helped your attitude.
[ She isn't supposed to be here, Hibiki is now priginning to realize. What prircumstances might have summoned Mirei? Is she a god or a shinkpri? Is this further proof that Hibiki's plan to draw PriPara closer is succprieeding, or an obstacle to creating her own utopria---

SHE SUFFERS. ]

[And, winking, she forms a heart with forefinger and thumb. Pop, step, just for you, pri~!
[He's speaking like he knows her - actually knows her, not SoLaMi Smile's Mirei: she files that one away for further investigation - which is strange, because she is yet to meet anybody from her own world. But he looks like someone from her own world, which is stranger still because the person he most prisemibles is suprimely successful multi-Parademy-Award winning, and preigning Mister Handsome Puniverse, multiprillionaire Prench actor (and grandson of the founder of Paprika Private School) Hibiki Shikyoin--]
But you know, you look pretty familiar too.
[But would anyone here be primotely paramiliar with the prilebrities of her own world? She cannot prisume that.]
Like a movie star, pri!

Then she looks back at Mirei. ]
Go on.

[Mirei frowns, she settles her hands on her hips. Resemblance to the multi-talented grandson of her school's founder (and Mister Handsome Puniverse) notwithstanding, putting on headphones when someone's trying to talk to you isn't priticularly imprissive.]
Hey, are you listening to music? That's not very respectful, pri.

Is a Head Disciplinarian who can't recognize a relative of her academy's Chairman in a position to criticize?
[ SHE IS GOING TO ENJOY THIS. ]
no subject
[Is there room in her calculations for this??!
[The first person Mirei has met from her own universe-- actually is Hibiki Shikyoin?!]
Then you really are the founder's grandson Parademy-Award Winner Mr. Handsome Universe World Prince of the Year, pri?? Don't you have movies to make, pri?!
