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

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.

[Probably not, if his demeanor's anything to go by. But his bravado is in full swing. It has to be, dealing with a place like Luceti.]

No. But this club does.

Just.....move. Over. You're BLOCKING it.
theoniongirl: (Oh Yeah?)

Hopefully a threadjack is okay?

[which is about the time that the petite artist appears with a beer for Geordie and a smile for Jack.

...A smile that might include an arched eyebrow]


Blocking what?
keepsmehonest: ([interest] eyebrow raise)

of course!

[He accepts the beer from Jilly with a grin and a shrug.]

Beats me.
all7seas: (hear me out)

NO. NEVER.

Jilly. [Well THAT shuts Jack up. Lovely Jilly. Sweet Jilly.]

Erm.......my carving.

[Because somewhere on Geordie's side of the table is a carving Jack was working on with his dagger, right in the wood. JS ♥ BS Forever and Ever and Ever and Ever and.

It isn't finished yet.]
theoniongirl: (You're Funny)

[personal profile] theoniongirl 2012-08-21 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Your-

[one hand resting on Geordie's shoulder, friendly and familiar, she leans over to see what Jack is talking about... and she laughs when she sees it]

Jack. How long have you been working on that?

[...it hasn't actually occurred to her that the two of them hadn't met, yet]
keepsmehonest: ([happy] amused)

[personal profile] keepsmehonest 2012-08-26 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Geordie follows Jilly's gaze, frowning a little when he reads the carving. He's not sure who BS is, but given that Jilly just called the man Jack, that at least answers the JS.

Forever and ever and ever and ever and. It's sweet and romantic and quickly makes him smile instead.]


Probably forever and ever.

[There's nothing mean in his voice. It's all good-natured jest.]
all7seas: (with a spoon brother)

[personal profile] all7seas 2012-08-26 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Hrmph. [Jack glares at the good-natured Geordie.] Not THAT long. Just. Nights when she's away, is all.


Patrolling and such.
theoniongirl: (Oh Yeah?)

[personal profile] theoniongirl 2012-08-31 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[she did catch that glare, and it gets a raised eyebrow. But she only shakes her head with a smile] I think it's sweet, however long it's been.

[placing a hand on Geordie's shoulder, she looked between them] I guess you two haven't met, yet? Geordie, this is Jack. He's a pirate. [there was something mischievous in the tone, as well as proud. She could imagine how Geordie might react to that kind of introduction. It shifts as she continues, though, becoming almost disbelieving. Happy, but still not fully trusting that it's real]

Geordie's from...from home.
keepsmehonest: ([happy] peering at the world)

[personal profile] keepsmehonest 2012-08-31 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[It doesn't go unnoticed by Geordie, either. But like Jilly, he just shakes it off. No jokes. Okay, he can live with that.

Eyebrows do raise at the word pirate. He takes in Jack's demeanor and dress and nods. A pirate. Well, Jilly does make friends with just about anyone, doesn't she?

He offers a hand in greeting, trying not to look all that nervous.]
I'm guessing that she's not talking about radio piracy, either. Uh, nice to meet you.
all7seas: (have I threatened you before?)

[personal profile] all7seas 2012-09-01 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Wait wait wait wait wait -- was this the PIMP BOYFRIEND?! When Jack takes the offered hand, he grips it rather violently.]

So was it HIM, lass? Is this the one?
