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.

I wouldn't want to give her something she won't like.

[Look, it's contagious. Now there are two big, broad shouldered, muscular men very seriously discussing stuffed animals and blocking the aisle.]

[fleurdesel]

None of that makes any kind of sense. None. And- please keep your shirt on-

[She sighs when he doesn't listen. Blinks at the scars. Blinks at him. Tries to think of something to say.]

[fleurdesel]

Please put your shirt back on. And. Do you always spill the entirety of your life's story to the first person you meet? Honestly.

[fallenambitions]

[I see nothing wrong with two, rather intimidating grown men talking about what plush animal to get for a sibling. Nope.]

Well, what animal does she prefer, a rabbit or a dog?

[faterecanted]

She has a fondness for flowers, and... cute things. [So...Bunny.] But she's easily flustered, so perhaps she'd rather have something more understated... [Puppy?]

[The apocalypse is so easy. Little sisters are difficult.]

[sthenic]

Well... If they aren't here, maybe that's not such a bad thing. They've got stuff to do that's probably ten times more important than what we have to do.

[Vivi jumps and squeaks and falls off of the log on which he'd been sitting. He was so deep in thought he hadn't even heard the leaves and twigs crunching beneath Rorona's feet as she approached.

He spins around to look at her; she's just barely visible by the light from the fire, but she doesn't appear to be waving a knife threateningly at him and so he doesn't run away wailing, as he'd been prepared to do.]

H-hello. Um. Are you lost too?

HOWARD. \o/

[somethingtoavenge]

[Coulson doesn't startle, but he is rather surprised. Blinking he looks up at the man that addressed him.

...Wait, he knows you. Recognizes you at any rate.]

...Mr. Stark? That is, Howard Stark, right?

[Who says being a huge Captain America fanboy doesn't pay off. Working for SHIELD helps.

Oh wait question.]

I'm... I wasn't expecting... I think someone bled on my cards.

[Phil doesn't want to look at the ruined cards, but the draw is horribly magnetic. He looks at the stained with blood cards. And pieces connect together. Damn Fury.]

I think it was me.

[markofthewise]

Well they're sure taking their time about it, then.

[piealchemist]

[... That is a really strange looking kid. Maybe he's wearing a mask or something? Well, he doesn't seem bad, so while Rorona does pause for a moment, she decides to continue speaking anyway. After all, there are some strange-looking people in Luceti.]

Ehehe ... Kinda, yeah. I should've realized a forest like this could get really confusing if I didn't know it well enough ...

[But enough about that--]

You haven't been stuck here too long, have you?

[kineticcajun]

[This is going to end in drunken fairies, isn't it.]

It's a drink, but it ain't exactly like water. Makes some people act kinda funny.

[cannoneer]

Oh, so now I'm the problem? Listen to yourself, man.

ruuuuuude sob

[dissonates]

[Once she's resting against him, he starts moving again, this time guiding her in the general direction of the village clinic. There's plenty of doctors around, so someone should be able to stabilize her condition.]

This... it's called Luceti. It's- [He doesn't want to aggravate her condition with a sudden shock, so maybe the otherworldly explanation can wait.] ...It's far from Baticul.

Awesome. Thanks!

[lostinmyway]

[Grune knows a captain! Unfortunately, his name is Jack, not Malik. Miscommunication ahoy!]

Well, why don't we call him on the journals?

[Pulling hers out from her cloth purse now....]

[niceguypose]

[He shifts to sit normally on the bench, leaning his elbows on his knees.]

I know. It would be fine if they were back home, helping to prepare for the war. I am just thinking selfishly. You are strong, Sakura-san. You are fine without Kakashi Sensei around. But... without Gai Sensei around to smile and tell me everything will be alright? ...I am not sure if I can stand this place.

[fallenambitions]

[He wouldn't know, he doesn't have siblings. Just tools 8(]

I don't see how either one would make much of a difference. If she's the type to get flustered easily, then she'll likely react to either gift.

[faterecanted]

[That's okay, it's only one less person to totally overreact and try to stab him.]

I know she would enjoy either one. It's her reaction when others see it that concerns me. [On the surface, stuffed toys. Beneath, an intricate game of chess and political strategy.] Giving her something she finds embarrassing won't ingratiate me to her, regardless of if she likes it.

1/2

[sthenic]

((Oh my gosh lee you're killing me!!!))


((Sakura stares, a little shocked. Wow, that was. One HELL of a nice thing to say. She was so used to Naruto trying to protect her all the time, and tell her that he'll make sure nothing happens to her. Even when she tried to be the strong one, Naruto would just.. butt in like he always knew what was best.

Lee.... he's protect her, too, even if she was much younger then. He'd tried to protect her from the sound ninja when Sasuke and Naruto couldn't. She remembers that now.))

[livesinatree]

[ONLY TIME WILL TELL.]

Is it a good kind of funny?

[sthenic]

((She shakes her head a moment, discarding the memory long enough to bring herself to respond.))

C'mon, Lee, you know that's not true. Sure, Gai sensei's means a lot to you, but his job is to raise you so you can go without him and be strong on your own. I think you've done a great job with that, so don't shoot yourself down so quick!

[tenerezza]

[ Careful now, Van. There may not be a law against decapitating helpless stuffed animals, but it wouldn't do to scare any children passing by.

Susanne's smile is a genuine as Van's is forced, though whether the teasing lilt in her voice hides something more or not is debatable. Seeing the commandant again presents her with a unique opportunity - one she would not dare to waste. The matter is how to go about it. This sort of diplomacy is a delicate issue she hasn't much experience with. ]

Indeed it is, though this place offers many of those. You surprise me as well. I didn't take you for an admirer of toys.

[kineticcajun]

It's a... weird kinda funny.

I am so sorry... B

[gullhyrndr]

[Loki's strides are silent, smooth, as he draws nearer to Coulson, eying him with mild interest. Seeing the man there was a bit peculiar, as surely that wound Loki left him with should have been fatal to a human. Yet here he was. The value of the cards Coulson held were lost on Loki, but the way they were being held and looked at it wasn't hard to tell they meant a great deal to the man. And the blood upon them were a very telling sign.

He stops several feet from the bench, but close enough so when he speaks Coulson will hear him clearly. He's not dressed in his armor, but a nicely tailored suit to blend in a bit more easier and not drawn too much attention to himself. Just an illusion of course.]

Ah, what a shame.

[His words bear no sympathy to them, more taunting than anything.]

[niceguypose]

Thank you, Sakura-san! You're right. I have learned so much from him, it would be an insult for me to not keep fighting here in this world. [He leaps up to his feet.] In this world, I resolve to become strong enough to survive without Gai Sensei! I will live my life so that if I see him again, he will not be sad at what I have become!

[And then from standing up so quickly, he nearly vomits, but he's able to keep it down.]

[redjacketthief]

Pick a room, any room, so long as its unoccupied.

[No. Seriously.]

...you're taking the news fairly well.
