the luceti test drive meme

Reserves have just opened and apps are right around the corner. But are you still on the fence about any of your would-be characters? Well -- here is your chance to take them out for a spin!

▣ TAG IN or reply to others with characters you would like to test drive for Luceti.
▣ ONLY add top-level comments for characters who are not yet in the game. You're free to reply to others with Luceti characters (because that's half the fun) but remember that the whole point of this meme is for potential characters.
▣ PLEASE do not post duplicates of characters already in Luceti.
▣ GO AHEAD and give us a brief description of your character in the top-level comment, along with one or two possible ways to run into your test-driven character around town.
▣ YOU MAY use these threads for your first person samples on your app -- just make sure that you link threads of a goodly length (i.e., threads with at least ten comments from your character).

Need a little help getting started? Remember, you needn't post here as though your character is still brand-spankin' new. It'll probably be more fun for all involved if this isn't a simple dress rehearsal for showing up. Here are a few scenario ideas:

o1. The grocery store is out of food. What do you do?
o2. Wing injury! Call for help or stagger your way to one of our fine clinics.
o3. It's a busy evening at Good Spirits, one of Luceti's local bars. Do you dare try the drink specials?
o4. Have a talent for playing music? Try Cloud Nine's open mic night!
o5. Beach party? Snow party? Leaf-raking party? Gardening party? YOU DECIDE.

Okay. So my examples are pretty non-exciting. But they're really just suggestions. I'm POSITIVE you kids can come up with more creative things.

Above all? HAVE FUN.

[Oh good, he got it. That was surprisingly painless.]

Yeah, sure. It's-

[Of course. He should have expected this. To varying degrees depending on which Robin this is. He's still weighing the options on that one.]

I'm not spying. Spying is done discreetly. Usually with the aid of binoculars or a periscope. I have neither.

I'm people watching.

[Hey there, mister damp-but-drying brit! There's some weirdly-dressed woman sitting a few tables away with her own cup of tea, staring at you rather hard. Not angrily or anything of that sort, but she sure seems fixated for some reason.]

[SPOKE TOO SOON, SHOULD'VE KNOWN.]

Oi, it's not a test, idiot!

[Stop. Everything.

Katarais 85 years old. this girl in front of her can't be any older than Korra. And Asami actually takes a step back to brace herself, deeply confused just long enough to remember people going on about... time? Yes, time.

Time?] Yes, I think so. [A bit weakly. No, okay, she should be more composed] I mean, I know so. I've read about you since I was little.

Been here a week, hasn't worked once. Finally to the point of "hit it until it works," and that's usually the captain doing it!

[Cheerful little creature, really. And not very off-put by his appearance or the modifications. Then again... the eye? The eye just reminds her of her captain.]

I'm usually really good at this stuff.

So it's just... Kinda wanna chuck it into an oven and melt it all down!

[Threatening it? Totally works.]

[Hardly rude, especially when compared to all the comments Ginia has heard over the years.]

I'm used to it. If you want, you can keep the notes for reference.

[He misses his little buddy. And he'll admit it too. It's why he's even going on about this game.]

Let me know if you change your mind. It's never hard to get a game going.

[Chizuru was on her hands and knees until the door slammed open. Now she perked up on her knees, peering over the furniture with widened eyes at the tantrum-throwing vice-commander.]

....

[Folding the rag silently, she draped it over the edge of the soapy water bucket before rising to her feet, calmly folding her hands over her lap.]

Is everything all right, Hijikata-san?

[Urk. Stupid question. Just look at that glowering face, Chizuru. How could anything possibly be all right?]

It's just something he can do. [See? He's going to do an assortment of high fivey fist bumpy things with his bird.... Because its wing is clearly an arm. Yep. ...Yep...]

[You wouldn't want to- No of course she wouldn't want to keep them. She took note of the fact there are other things written on the thing Ginia is writing on, which means that this woman probably does keep a few stock things written, but right now all the technical details she's been giving her won't be of any use to anyone else.

Immensely grateful, Asami actually bows her head a little, smiling]

That'd be really nice of you- and introducing myself must've slipped my mind. I'm Asami Sato.

Well it looks pretty nice. Are they gasoline powered? My friend kind of invented these things. But they were steam powered. Useful, but not very powerful.

[Kurenai doesn't play hide and seek with her students as training, though.]

Well, sensei wants us to learn just as much as Gai-sensei wants your team to learn too. I just think they have different methods.

Ino-chan... do you really believe that? Thank you! Thank you so much for your faith in my abilities and in Gai Sensei!

[WHAT IN THE EVERYTHING.

WEIRD BIRD WHICH DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH LEGS AND WING ARMS. AND HE HAS -

YOU KNOW WHAT MAYBE SHE SHOULD FOCUS ON THE HAIR]

-Your hair is red too.

[Did you have breakfast yet, Sanzo? Because there's a delicious smell drifting in the air if you're hungry, coming directly from a box that's being carried around by a small kid with brown hair and a golden diadem that's running all around the village. At least until he spots Sanzo and approaches, proceeding to just... Stand there staring at him with a stupid look on his face.]

... Sanzo?

[That's Konzen's face, he's pretty sure of that, but he has his hair short, like Tenpou did when in Luceti and called himself Hakkai. And his clothes are a bit different too. The kid isn't sure and there's a lack of familiarity in his voice when calling the other, as if he still hasn't attached the name to that face.]

[Oh man. Best question ever. She'd love to be able to share it with someone, but Logan won't find it funny.]

Yes, some of us genuinely like Jean [a slight pause] more than others. An' even when she ticks us [me] off, she's still a member of the team.

[That's a bit more open than she would have been, but right now she LOVES you, Abed. Ask anything but about her name, and you're good.]

[...That's so rude. She composes herself, and hair flip-]

And I'm sorry. I'm Asami.

[This guy.]

[He's green.]

[...]

W-Well, yeah, that's what the guide said. [Awkwardly shifting in place.] But... why would you need more than one?

[...]

[A pause.

Blink. Blink.

Heeeeadtilt.]

......So?

[His friend- oh right, from the past this guy is the younger form of one of the old councilmen. She need to keep reminding herself of that] Yeah, they're gasoline powered. They're a lot more powerful than steam powered ones too, I assure you.

[Ginia returns the bow of her head. It takes her a moment to remember to reply with her own name, her real name, her real full name. It's something she's not used to and she's not sure if she ever will be used to it. Her name doesn't mean much here, also another fact she's not used to. All the same, it's nice not having to hide.]

I'm Ginia Solana. It's nice to meet you. What would you like me to call you?

Well that's... different. I've never met anyone that far from the future before.

[Now I know how Roku feels.

She decides not to mention that.

She took in Asami's coloring.]

You're from the Earth Kingdom?

Robot? Nah. Those'll be next week.

Just seein' what some of this stuff can do!
