Test Drive #34

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!

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.



Jingle Jeans

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.


Kitty Kibble

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.


Lagging Laundry

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?


Melon Mania

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?


Nice & Neat

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!

i. Lagging Laundry

[ Instead of taking the laundry to the laundromat like a decent shinki Mikoto has opted to dry it the old fashion way - Fire! Have dry and roasted laundry! Well, at least he helped. ]


ii. Nice and Neat

[ Finally! A job that doesn't require he burn anything! ... which is probably why he's asleep on the jigsaw puzzle. He'll wake up when someone approaches. Why that is? Who knows, he's probably been sleeping there for hours and finally just roused out of bed. Either way, there's a few puzzle pieces sticking to his face as he yawns and runs a hand down his mane. ]


iii. Wildcard

[ Make up your own scenario. I'll follow suit! ]

[ Was he, though? Helping? By burning someone's silk pajamas? And no he was moving on to ruin even more clothing.]

Mikoto, stop!! [ Alex pulls them off from where they hung, hugging the bundle of laundry close to her before he could do anything. ]

You're going to mess them up!

[ He tilts his head her way, regarding her with gold steely eyes as he snatches the rest of the clothes. ]

Heh.

[ He shrugs and pulls a cigarette from his coat, lighting the end of it with a lighter, completely ignoring her as he takes a drag. ]

[ Seriously? He going to still do this? ]

If you're not going to dry them properly, then look for what's responsible for this!

[ Hugging the laundry to herself with one arm, she moves closer to try and snatch what he grabbed with her other hand. ]

[ He hands over the bra as he blows a stream of smoke her way. ]

[ At least he can respect how difficult it is to find a good bra and how expensive they are--

She coughs as the smoke ticklers her nose, her face scrunching at the direct hit of the smell. As used to cigarettes as she was, it was never pleasant to have it straight at your face. ]


You're gonan--cough--make the laundry-- cough--smell..!

[ Real mature, Mikoto. ]

Why do you care?
sing_for_me: (ouch)

[personal profile] sing_for_me 2018-11-06 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
Because people need these!

[ Alex had a great appreciation for clothing. Not so much the vain aspect, but just..having things to wear. So watching him burn them was like watching nice cars get wrecked in the movies. ]

And they asked for our help. Isn't that why you're even here?

[personal profile] lionhearrt 2018-11-06 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ He slips the cigarette from his mouth. ]

I'm not here for them.
sing_for_me: (???)

[personal profile] sing_for_me 2018-11-06 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
[ Alex stares at him for a long moment. ]

....You...are you trying to get the ayakashi to come out by burning the laundry..?

[ Their clothes not drying won't be what people complain about if he kept going. ]

[ But puzzles can be fun.. Of course, it's the greatest delight to do it with his children, but still, they can be fun with others nonetheless. Sleeping on them... Well, Sleepy Ash would do the same, most likely.

All of Love, settling in a spot of shadow - which probably helped in waking Mikoto up since it's reached him by now - reaches over to peel two connected pieces off of Mikoto's face, a chuckle barely covered up by his other hand. It comes off as a little fond, though it's not like he knows this person. ]


Did you have a nice nap?
