Test Drive #34

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.

The fresh new spring fashion trend is accessorized denim. Super-accessorized! Bells, chains, beads, zippers, belts and more drip from every inch of this season's hot styles, and the stores need someone to model their new stock -- and bring in the buyers. It's your job to convince the fashion-savvy residents of Tokyo that these new jeans are exactly what their wardrobe needs, without getting your five chain belts tangled.
A huge, panther-shaped ayakashi is haunting the streets of Asakusa, and the pigeons at the local pigeon shrine have disappeared! Take care of this feline predator so the surviving sacred birds won't end up as dinner on the wing.
The residents of an Ikebukuro high-rise have an unusual problem: no matter how sunny the day or how long it's been hanging, their laundry just won't dry! Do they have a moist microclimate? An ayakashi of mold and despair? Or do they just need someone to get all that wet laundry to the nearest laundromat with a dryer until the weather warms up?
A gardener in Ueno has planted a brand-new strain of muskmelon in his window boxes, and this plant is going wild! Vines have taken over the exterior of his apartment building, and beach-ball-sized fruit are popping up all over. He needs help bringing in the harvest… but his neighbors are begging for this plant to wind up in the compost heap so their lives can go back to normal. Whose side will you take?
A community art project is being hosted at the Tokyo Art Museum! Jigsaw-shaped pieces of wood about the size of a hand have been handed out to artists and crafters throughout Japan, and the pieces have just been shipped back. Now, they have to be assembled into one giant jigsaw puzzle for display. There's just one problem: someone forgot to number the pieces before they were shipped! Now they've got a 20,000 piece puzzle whose pieces don't match, and it has to be finished this weekend for the grand opening. Help!

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!

True... but what's a little mess compared to helping a flock of sacred animals? They were so scared when we were fighting that ayakashi, so I let them do what they wanted so they could calm down a bit.
[How was she to know that they'd just get more excited???]
I just... wasn't expecting that, that's all.

Obviously...
[ despite herself, she reached up to pluck one lonesome feather from the tip top of Ruler's head. it's not like she cares!! but her "sister" cannot be taller than her even though artificial means.
she flicks the feather to the ground and dusts her gauntlets off against one another. ] Either way, the problem looks to be solved, and so my help is no longer needed.

And things seem to be settling down here... I suppose it is safe for us to leave. [Us???] Would you like to stop off anywhere before we head back home?
[She knows Avenger usually shoots down offers like this, but she seems to be in a. Uh. Relatively good mood! Maybe she'll be a bit more willing this time...!]
no subject
I'm — [ Avenger is usually good at making excuses or finding things to do with her time because sitting around all the time was boring, and both she and Berserker will never grow stronger if they sit idle for very long. it was just as much a desire to prove herself as much as improve that motivates her to fill her calendar with meaningful tasks.
but. now that the danger was over and much too soon - and she couldn't even get a piece of the action for herself! damn! - she had... no direction for what to do next except return to the temple and wait. ]
I'm... sure we aren't going in the same direction. [ stalling? stalling. quick: think of an errand that needs to be run. something. anything! ]
