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.

Cyborg | Teen Titans

[cannoneer]

[Now that it's been two weeks since Cyborg's been here, he's finding out that this place is as boring as it gets. Sure, he could earn some points for his own personal TV and video game system, but what he'd rather have is something to build. His T-Car. The Tower. Something. There's not even supervillains to fight. So naturally? He turns to the journals. For ideas. Or something.]

Yo Luceti. What's a guy gotta do to get some action around here? You'd think we'd get some decent bad guys around here to beat up. Back in Jump City, there was a super villain up to trouble practically every day of the week. I haven't seen anybody so much as shoplifting here. {A pause.] Not that uh, there'd be a point. Seeing at it's all free.

Anybody ever heard of stink ball?

[teenwonder]

[Sup Cy. Robin heard you make that post because he's got nothing to distract him from stalking everyone all the time. You know, and then there's that whole "he's not convinced you're actually you" thing. A fake-Cyborg is bound to slip up sooner or later. >|]

You're planning that stinkball game outdoors, right?

[cannoneer]

Kind of no choice, Rob. You didn't exactly pick a roomy place to live.

[It'd be the most boring game ever inside. It's bad enough there's no BB to play with.]

[teenwonder]

I didn't expect to still be here.

There are other places to go if you hate it. I mean, it's not like we've got any towers around, but some of the houses are bigger.

[cannoneer]

I hear ya. I expected us to be out of here a week ago.

[They're Titans. They've never had this bad of luck before.]

[touchofrogue]

Ugh.

[That's a "yes" on the stankball.]

[cannoneer]

[Gee. That sounds familiar.]

Ugh?

[touchofrogue]

Isn't that the usual response to stinkball?

[cannoneer]

Only for the uninitiated.

[azarathmetrionzinthos]

...

Don't.

[cannoneer]

Come on, Ray. I bet you could use the excitement. Better than doing nothing, right?

[azarathmetrionzinthos]

I'd give "nothing" another chance if I were you. It doesn't require showers afterwards.

[cannoneer]

I've been doing nothing for two weeks now. I'd say it's had its chance.

[niceguypose]

I have never heard of such a ball. Please, tell me about it!

[cannoneer]

Well it's a ball. And it stinks. So you don't want to get hit by it.

[niceguypose]

That sounds like a wonderful training exercise! I would like to play it. I will avoid the stinking ball!

[cannoneer]

Just don't get too cocky. I'm still the undefeated champion.

[maldoran]

Of course -- you wouldn't see any shoplifting anyway. Would you? Barring the obvious barriers of our painfully absent economy [ boo hoo ] there are also the thieves themselves to consider.

Perhaps...they are very very good at what they do.

[cannoneer]

Sure, maybe they're good. But we're better. We kind of do this thing full time.

[maldoran]

Then I should not have to remind you that a career theif also does that sort of thing. Full time. It's a lifestyle choice, truly.

[cannoneer]

So you're saying I should be keeping a sharper eye out?

i miiight need to renew my paid /sob

[erodedbutterfly]

[Responding by means of writing and covering up her camera with her other hand--Terra's not ready to show herself, but she can't help but crave interaction with someone who used to be her friend.

...maybe that's kinda pathetic.]

I don't know, I kinda like how peaceful it is around here. Sure beats how things were back home for me. [Since those things were, you know, her fault. There's no measure of guilt that could describe how horrible she feels about all of it now. How much she wishes she could take it all back.]

So, stink ball huh? [Okay, pretend like you don't know what it is, Terra... you may have enjoyed playing, but Cyborg's not suppose to know it's you. Get it together.] Mind telling me more about it? Sounds interesting.

15 icons is hard

[cannoneer]

[It's kind of weird that someone is talking to him like this via writing. And he can't even see who it is. But his curiosity loses out to satisfaction. At least somebody is interested.]

Well, you made the stinkiest wad of a ball you can, right? And then you throw it at everyone else. Think of it like dodgeball, only you can smell when you're losing.

especially with the fifteen they left me with /sob

[erodedbutterfly]

That does sound like a load of fun. Totally nothing wrong with a little stink, right? I mean, it's not like you can't get washed up later or anything.

[...]

So, did people play it with you? I mean, back where you're from. [She knows the answer to that. But she's not supposed to know, here. Here, she's a stranger to Cyborg.]

I keep wanting to upload more for Cy as well

[cannoneer]

Usually it was me and BB. Sometimes we could get Robin and Star into the game too. [And once in a blue moon, Raven.]
