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, spoil Crysta's fun, why don't you? SHE NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT IT IS. Well. Maybe she'll investigate in a little bit. He said it isn't important, but if it wasn't, then why is there so much of it in this place?

Oh well. Human has a name! Remy. Remy. Sounds kind of funny, but she likes it.]

I'm Crysta. [...] What does 'pehteet' mean?

[spiritblocked]

The game was made so that it was easy to lose! So I changed that.

[And destroyed things unintentionally.]

[spiritblocked]

[She rolls her eyes and leans back on the wall while he does that - and she keeps her fireball going.]

[tiearibbon]

[Look at them fly, indeed. Eiko's completely got the wrong impression now, and she's determined to get to the bottom of this poor man's "romantic" dilemma. No matter what it takes!]

I'll help! If it's for that important someone, then first thing's first: you gotta make sure the gift leaves a lasting impression! It's gotta be something you know she'd love for sure; that's just how it works.

[spiritblocked]

It wasn't that bad.

[livesinatree]

Ohh, I understand! That isn't very fair, is it?

[...]

But why did everything go dark afterward? Is it some kind of magic that the game does? [You know. To stop people from changing things.]

[deathsdoctor]

[Calm eyes of assessment. Okay. This is going to be made difficult, isn't it? He inclines his head in acquiescence.]

Trafalgar Law. I'm the captain of the Shinonome [He looks in the direction of his boat.] over there, and the head doctor at one of the clinics in the village.

[He neglects to mention he's also a pirate. A pirate captain in fact. One who's been separated from his nakama for over a year and a half.]

Yourself?

[Mild and patient. He's half expecting now that the man will not even give him a name, but well, that's how it goes sometimes.]

...actually that's fairly accurate

[dissonates]

[Asch has to restrain himself from wincing at that response, since it tells him everything and nothing all at once. He doesn't stop, though, coming closer and winding an arm gently around her waist to offer her some extra support. She's obviously suffering, and he can't stand that.]

It's... I'm not Luke anymore. [He pauses, taking a deep breathe, and quickly moves on. He doesn't like to dwell on that fact, especially not here, when it's been so long.] Come on, I'll get you to a place where you can rest.

[admiralpellew]

I assume that's her, then? [turning to survey the ship anchored off shore allows him to mask a small smile.]

I see no colors, Captain.

[spiritblocked]

Well I can't do anything about this even if I wanted to.

[captainhornblower]

Her colours are in the captain's cabin.

[It's hard to say, and he knows it will be a disappointment.

But...]

This village glorifies pirates, sir. I... would not trust them not to act against her and against the colours if I flew them.

[savedtheworld]

[He smiles.]

It doesn't matter, now it's not bad anymore. ...Now where did I put my shoe?

[kineticcajun]

[There's so much of it because it isn't important, but that's a concept he's not sure he can explain very well. Filling in the blanks from his French, though, that's the usual.]

Jus' another word for "li'l". [Beat. He should probably try to enunciate, because it wouldn't be the first time his accent perpetuated a circle of "what'd you say?"] "Lit-tle". I mean.

[tiearibbon]

[Well. Eiko's really only exaggerating when she says she's been here a while, as she's only been here almost a week. So, Vivi's probably not entirely at fault. But to her, it's significant enough to make a difference!]

How come you didn't tell me sooner? I mean, I could have died out there all by myself!

[Okay, not really. Another exaggeration. Luceti isn't really that dangerous most of the time. BUT STILL. It's bad and you should feel bad, Vivi.]

[shamelessness]

Yes! We're like teammates. She may look scary, but she's nice.

[If a bit of a vain troublemaker. Speaking of, she's proudly making her way over to the both of the. Yeah, that's right. Talk about her. She's an awesome skarmory.]

1/3

[scarfed]

[And only a moment after Asami notice him, Mako sees her after she made a bit of noise with the clothing rack. He doesn't say anything to her right away though. He suddenly had that feeling like he shouldn't be here when he saw her. Asami had been acting pretty odd around him, cold almost. Yea, she was friendly with him whenever they saw each other, but it felt like she was keeping his distance from him.]

[endgames]

You should've said that to begin with. People respond better when you ask nicely, after all.

[His voice may be closer than it was before, just not right up next to her.]

[scarfed]

[Was she just telling him she wanted some space? She could have just said so if that's the case. She's already been here for a few weeks, how much more space did she still need? And why wouldn't she want her boyfriend to help her out with this place? Ugh, he just runs his hand through his hair for a moment.

Maybe he should just leave her alone to her shopping for now. But why would he just walk out on his girlfriend without at least saying hi after seeing her? He sighs and swings his scarf around his neck. He'll just say hi. If she doesn't want to talk to him, then he can leave.]

Hey Asa-

[admiralpellew]

Yes. So you did.

[scarfed]

[As he walks towards her, he felt his scarf tighten around his neck. His scarf had gotten caught on one of the empty hooks on a hat rack. Oh god, why now? He quickly tugs at his scarf to get it free before he embarrasses himself even further only to take the rack with him. Quickly he makes a grab for it, saving the rack, but dropping all the hats on it except for one]

Whew. [...wasn't he talking to Asami? He straightens up suddenly, rack in hand still.]

I thought you could use a new hat. [Yep. Smooth. keep it real smooth, Mako]

[zumo]

[The words are scarcely out of her mouth before cat!Toshizo stalks back to Hijikata and just casually reaches up to sharpen his claws on his pants. This earns an angry scoff from the samurai, who has to shake the cat off. With about the least amount of grace possible.]

Well, he should find one that wants him. [Once he's pried the cat from his legs, Toshizo hisses up at the man before trotting away down the aisle.]

Ugh. Finally.

[Action]

[toosmalltoeat]

Sorry...I'm sorry, I thought it was-

...just me.

[He knows it's not an excuse, but he totally didn't avoid her on purpose. Really, promise, from the bottom of his maybe-there heart.]

[zumo]

[...

Heisuke....do you have a death wish? Because if looks could kill right now]

That's ridiculous. I'm not a cat.

[Wriggle wriggle, goes the bush closest to you. Is it the wind or is it your imagination?

Or perhaps it's the girl in there, heavy camera slung on a strap around her neck and camera lens peeking out of the foliage. Zooming, zooming...]

[livesinatree]

Oh! That makes sense. [She IS very little in comparison to Gambit after all.]

But about what's in this, um... [UNSURE.] This! You were drinking it before, weren't you? So it's some kind of drink, like water?
