it's time once again for a...test drive meme!

[herotypical]

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. And don't forget to RESERVE your characters.

[Ororo remembers visiting Cloud Nine. It was a quaint place, lovely atmosphere and had good taste in music. She'd promised some people she would play the piano for them, before, but she never quite got around to it. What better time to get to that (finally, months and months later) than on open mic night?

Afterwards, she'll sit herself somewhere non-obtrusive to do some quiet people-watching, a mild fruity drink in hand.]

/FLAILS :D :D :D

[kineticcajun]

[Well, well. Look who's back! Sure, things were pretty awkward the last he saw Storm, but Gambit's not going to pay that any attention right now. Instead, he's just going to abandon his own people-watching and slip over to where Ororo is sitting.]

Looks like I picked the right night to come by this place.

/flails with!!

[calmbeforethe]

[Of course, Ororo already knows that Gambit's still around. She doesn't remember that awkward moment, though, so she greets him with an easy, tolerant smile.]

Hello, Gambit. How have you been?

[kineticcajun]

[Exactly why he's not bothering about the awkwardness. He sure as anything doesn't remember his first trip to Luceti, and so he figures no harm done. Clean slate. Oddly refreshing.]

Other'n bored? [Sly grin.] Haven't been half bad. That nothin'-ever-happens t'ing grows on you a li'l bit. Take it you jus' got back, then?

[calmbeforethe]

A few days now, yes. I've taken my time re-learning the place. [She takes a moment to sip her drink and give him a little grin.] I've heard you've behaved yourself while I was gone.

[kineticcajun]

[He takes on a tone of affected distress.] Dang. That got ahead of me, did it? So much for that bad reputation.

[calmbeforethe]

Indeed. Logan mentioned you hadn't caused much trouble in some time, and I was surprised. Pleasantly so, of course.

[kineticcajun]

Aw, but now I gotta go an' make enough trouble to make up for it. Y'know how it is.

[Entirely joking. Mostly. Kind of. He'll just cause minor trouble. But a lot of it.]

[calmbeforethe]

Ah. Please, don't start again on my account! [Unless you want Ororo to be on your case everytime you cause your minor trouble!]

[kineticcajun]

Ah, well, since you ask so nice...

[Yeah, she'll probably have to get on his case. Although that'll just make it more entertaining.]
