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.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

No show. Not here. [Was he that eager when he was new at Robin-ing?]

We're keeping up appearances until we can get out. We don't have time to work on our PR.

Really? 'Cause it sounds like we've got a lot of time to kill here. You should loosen up.

[...then again, rooftop snacks. Definitely not what he expected of Dick, even if he is younger.]

There's enough to keep us occupied.

[Rooftop snacks are super delicious and shouldn't even be an issue.]

... Where you're from, have you heard of a guy who calls himself Slade?

[It's never too early to start obsessing.]

Doesn't sound familiar... [He really has to think about it. Unless it was someone that Bruce didn't think he needed to know about...] Doesn't sound all that friendly, either.

He's not. [It's terse and snappy, and the last he wants to say on the matter for now.]

What about the Titans? Are they big yet in your time? [Anita says they're practically on par with the Justice League in the future. It's single-handedly made him okay with all these future-people peppering around dropping spoilers everywhere.]

I'd say so. I'm not sure there's anyone who doesn't know who you guys are! I wish I could hang out with 'em more, but Bruce would probably ground me or something.

[He punches the other-Robin's shoulder then because names.]

Look. Did you wanna. Go somewhere -- have a real talk? [Because seriously how can anyone just go around throwing Bruce's name out there like it's no big deal? That's classified dude!]

[Don't worry, your turn will come, Dickie-bird. He doesn't take the punch personally, though, he makes that mistake enough to know what he did—]

I thought you'd never ask. Maybe we can even have a sleepover.

I hope you don't plan on starting a pillow fight.

[But he'll tidy up their meager food mess anyway and drop a rope down the south end of the building.]

Fourth floor. Get moving.

[They'd enter Robin's apartment through the window. Perhaps unsurprisingly, his living space is sort of Batcave-y. There's a cobwebbed bedroom that hasn't been used in just about ever, a lab-esque room filled with gutted consumer electronics, surveillance, and wiring (and a giant stack of comic books) and then a room for obsessing, which is plastered with notes and diagrams and things. New-Robin is welcome to roam around while actual-Robin disarms traps. He'll be right with you, little bro.]

I can't make any promises!

[But follow him he shall! And when he enters the apartment, well... Jason can't not be nosy about this. He didn't know Dick very well to begin with, so this is really something...!

He thinks he can see how he keeps himself busy, though. Jeez. He didn't expect to see anything like this in Luceti. He won't pry ~~for now~~, but taking a little look around is definitely a thing.]

There's no place like home, but it sure looks like you've been tryin'.

Been here a while. [He's not proud of it.]

But this is as close to a secure place to talk as we're going to get. If you want to start throwing Bruce's name around, this is the place to do it. [Not that Robin has any plans to actually get comfortable or anything. He sleeps with the mask on.]

All right, Dick. You got it. [At least that time, the name is intentional. It kind of makes him wonder how many people have actually heard of Batman here, though... or if maybe the older Robin is just really uptight. Either way.] I think I like it better here anyway. Makes a kid feel right at home.

[He cringes visibly at the sound of broken taboos.] Don't.

I don't use that name anymore. It's just Robin now, okay?

[So essentially, yes. He's just really uptight.]
