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.

[she tilts her head a little]

Why do you sound surprised?

[His expression settles into a soft little smile, one that's difficult to read.]

I wasn't expecting to see you here, that's all.

[her head is still tilted.] You look sad, Richard. Are you here to 'drown your sorrows'?

Did Captain Malik teach you that phrase?

[He shakes his head a little, somehow not surprised at all.]

But yes, I suppose that's one way of putting it.

[she nods.]

He says sometimes when men fall on hard times they turn to the bottle.

[Please note she doesn't actually understand 100% of what she just said...] I don't want you to have a hard time, Richard.

[It's probably a good thing that Malik isn't here or else Richard would be having some Words with him regarding Sophie and alcohol.]

Thank you, but I'm afraid that isn't something that anyone here has any control over. You don't need to worry about me.

[But Richard, you're her friend, friends need to help each other...]

Okay... I won't worry if you try not to be sad.

'Never, never, never give up'... is it?

Mm-hmm! Because we're friends.

Thank you, Sophie. I'm truly lucky to have a friend like you.

And speaking of friends, I have a few of my own that I want to introduce you to while you're here.

[that of course gets a good reaction.]

Yes, I'd love to meet them, Richard.

And I'm sure they would love to meet you too.

[... well. Isamu will probably grumble, but.]

What are they like?

[she wants to know every detail now....]

Isamu may be gruff on the outside, but he has a kind heart underneath, no matter how much he may try to pretend it isn't there.
