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.

Starfire | Teen Titans

[happygokori]

[you know what is awesome? friends :3 Ever since Starfire arrived she has been flitting back and forth, meeting as many people as she possibly can. After all, everyone is so wonderfully strange, unique, and interesting! She can't get enough of it, and she's very eager to meet new people.

Sooooo, she is currently walking through the streets, arms loaded with many.... strange ingredients (tomato paste, cinnamon, celery, beef, eggs, molasses, okra, un-popped popcorn... just to name a few) and is looking for some advice]

Greetings! Is there a place where one might prepare food in a communal setting? I wish to make a truly delectable meal from my planet for all to share!

[run... run away]

YES

[cannoneer]

[No Starfire, no. Cyborg is the chef here. When he sees her armed with strange ingredients, he's concerned. Very concerned.]

... hey Star. I didn't realize we needed more food.

:3

[happygokori]

Cyborg! [:D :D :D :D :D ]

This food is not for us to consume alone! I wish to create something for my dear friends- both new and old! While I could not locate Tamaranian ingredients, I believe this unique combination of earth flavors will result in a similar taste!

[and come on, SHE'S SO EXCITED how can you say no :3]

Good. Excellent. Now I have all of you.

[cannoneer]

[His heart says yes, but his stomach says "Oh god why?"]

Uh huh. Most people couldn't try combining tomatoes, cinnamon, and eggs together.

haha, when I saw all the awesome titans on here I couldn't resist

[happygokori]

My hope is that it will create a taste reminiscent of the grungescortch leaf. When boiled it creates a broth that is ripe and juicy, it is also slightly spicy in a way that is hard to explain!

Can't resist *apping*, right? Right?

[cannoneer]

Yeah, I think I kind of get the picture. I'm not so sure these ingredients are gonna capture the taste you're going for.

[howsmashing]

[Well. THAT is going to ping a certain giant green man's interest.]

...you any good? [At cooking he means.]

[happygokori]

[aaaaaand watch Starfire take his question literally]

Yes. I would think that I am 'good'. In Luceti is it customary to reveal one's moral affiliation upon meeting?

[howsmashing]

[Wait. What. It takes him a minute to even catch on to what the hell she's talking about.]

...

Talkin' about cooking, Einstein.

[happygokori]

[oh! she jumps a bit and nods!]

I see! Yes, I do not try to sound my tiny trumpet often, but I have practiced and enjoyed Tamarian cooking since I was small.

[howsmashing]

... Temarian?

[What are you a fan of Star Trek or something?]

Hnnh. Just go into one of the empty houses. Use the kitchen in there. [Completely ethical and stuff. That's the Hulk.]

[erodedbutterfly]

[If Terra remembers correctly, she was one of the few (if not the only one) back home that didn't mind Starfire's strange meals. In fact, she remembers--very fondly--being excited for each and every one. In that respect, Starfire and Terra had been a perfect match. Starfire's weird meals were a good fit for Terra's equally strange tastebuds. Well, that and Terra wasn't too picky--traveling all over the place and sometimes not eating much for days will do that to a girl.

But now, things are different. Even if she had been planning to stop that volcano and save the friends she had previously betrayed back home, she's here now. Here, and with no clue where Starfire had been taken from. Would it make any difference if she knew, though? Terra's a traitor, and she doesn't have the courage to face Starfire or any of the others.

So she's standing nearby, out of sight, watching Starfire parade down the street in the cheerful manner the blonde will always remember her possessing. As tempting as it is to just go over there, try to laugh with Star and eat strange things like they used to... she knows she better not. It's never too late to change, no, but she hasn't done anything to earn the trust she destroyed back yet, either... and she has no clue where to even start.]

[happygokori]

[oh Terra... As she stands out of sight, Starfire is sadly oblivious to her former friend's (or friend? After she made such a sacrifice, such a show of heroism, there is no doubt that the Titans remember only the fond times that they spent together. But, at the same time, there is a difference between thinking about forgiveness, and actually giving it away) presence.

However, Starfire stops in the middle of her procession, and for a moment.... she looks around confused. Uh oh, she took a wrong turn somewhere along the way. After a moment of consideration, she decides to try.... that direction!

Uh oh, it looks like the direction she chose will bring her closer to where Terra is hiding. Better think fast]

[azarathmetrionzinthos]

[ ...oh no. ]

I'm not sure that any mortal 'communal food preparation stations' can handle truly delectable Tamaranean food, Starfire.

[savedtheworld]

[Aang recognizes this person through a previous event, so he knows she's friendly!]

I could use my bending abilities to set up some kind of bonfire for you at the plaza!
