ain't no party like a luceti-club party

[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.

No food. No food?! This is completely unacceptable!

[The typical Trinket trill has become a bit more shrill as Effie discovers the cupboard is bare. No food on the supermarket shelves!]

How inefficient! How like an outlier! It's a simple matter of taking stock and being sensible and planning ahead, really. The Capitol would never stand for this!

O MAN hey sup 8D

[teenwonder]

[Robin makes it a point to keep all his journal-correspondance heavily filtered. This means that this girl is good. A little too good for his liking. Either that, or Jason made a mess and forgot to clean up after it. Sigh, Jason.]

Sorry to disappoint. Been busy.

N/M how 'bout you

[pinkefficiency]

[She is good. That and in some of his entries, he was addressing the public as a whole at first. So hey. It all works out.]

I'm sure you'll find a way to make up for it. So, what do you want to know?

[theyreclumps]

[As it is, Ty Lee doesn't bear any bad feelings towards Sokka. And after going against the Princess of the Fire Nation... well, that sort of means they're on the same-ish side, doesn't it? Maybe.

At any rate, there certainly isn't anyone around who can judge her for not being mean to him. So why even pretend?]

Weeeeeell... it's definitely nicer than being cooped up in the Boiling Rock! And there are lots of interesting people here, too.

[theyreclumps]

Oh! Hi, Aang! [Ty Lee doesn't really dislike Aang, but he was the Avatar, which meant that he was an automatic enemy, and... well, she chased after him and tried to kill them along with Azula and Mai, but that wasn't personal! It was just... a thing. That they needed to do at the time. But she's here now! And Azula isn't here now! And she was in prison because she attacked Azula so it wasn't like she had to listen to her anymore, anyway!

So, she just shrugs and offers Aang a smile.]

I'm good, I guess! I'm still trying to get used to the wings, though. [But they're pretty, so that helps. Somehow.]

So you've found your way back

[markofthewise]

Well... yeah. It's hard to get worse than Boiling Rock. And I wasn't even in a cell there.

[But, well. Suki talked. It sounded miserable.]

That's where you were, huh?

[savedtheworld]

[It all works out! That she's not immediately attacking him is also a welcome sign that all is well.]

They do take some time to get used to! [He laughs.] Y'know, when I got here I almost thought that I had the wings all along with noticing and that's how I got so good at airbending! But I like your wings!

[godmodder]

[Yeah, Wanda doesn't miss that staring, and frankly, it's getting on her nerves. So she stares right back.]

Something wrong?

Raylene Carter | The Onion Girl

[willak]

[First the forest. Raylene was...anxious. She didn't know how else to describe it, but she felt like her skin was too tight for her bones. It was incredibly strange, though not so strange as wings and crap like that.

So she decided to take a walk in the forest surrounding the town. Bare-footed and calm, almost a mirror for her sister. Sweet, happy Jilly.

Raylene's empty palms tightened into fists and her teeth ground in her mouth. No. This wasn't going to be about her again - this was going to be Raylene's own time.

She forced herself back into calmness. If anyone wants to bovver her feel free~

Second 7th Heaven. Raylene could be found here scarfing down a plate of food like it was the last she'd ever have. But upon approach, her eating habits will turn much more... polite-like.]

[theyreclumps]

Thanks! They go really well my aura. But I like yours, too!

I might have

[theyreclumps]

... Yeah. It had only been a few days, but when you're there, it feels a lot longer.

[snikting]

Not yet. Just makin' sure it stays that way.

[If Logan can be credited for anything, it's his brutal honesty.]

[savedtheworld]

Oh, thanks! [He sheepishly twists around to showcase them better.] They match the air nomad colors, so I guess you can say they're kinda like my aura!

Nathan Spencer * Bionic Commando Rearmed

[thefirstbionicsoldier]

[It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No - - it’s a man swan-diving off a high rock formation to his death – or so it seems. But as opposed to screaming in terror, he lets loose a raw, gleeful adrenaline-charged howl, thoroughly enjoying the sense of speed and freedom and the feeling of the bottom of his stomach dropping out. Some twenty feet short of making impact – and messily at that – the end of his bionic arm swiftly extends on a wire with an impeccable sense of timing, the prongs on the end latching firmly onto a tree branch. He swings smoothly through the air, his pulse pounding briskly in his throat as the claw releases and there's that brief moment of free-falling before it grapples onto the next target and keeps the momentum going.

Never gets old.

Ah, the great outdoors. Now Spencer here was a city-slicker (a village-slicker, now?), but of course, he needed an escape every so often from the hustle and bustle. What could better take his mind off troubles in the village than a change in scenery and some open space?

You might catch him swinging around the woods, although he'll be more available to talk later, when snagging some drink from the Battledome vending machine and chilling right outside, or while on his way to grab some lunch at Seventh Heaven.]

[touchofrogue]

[Unlike grumpy up there, Rogue's got no real beef with Wanda as long as things aren't going all explodey. It's not like she hasn't stayed in the same boarding house or had homicidal urges towards a parent. Wanda may notice, though, that Rogue's own Gothic look has mellowed a little in the two years she's spent in Luceti - while still preferring dark, formfitting clothes, the purple lipstick gave way to dark red on her twentieth birthday. The hair's stayed pretty much the same length, though, and it bobs forward and back with Rogue's head as she gives Wanda a nod of acknowledgement on her way.]

[touchofrogue]

[Rogue paused. Talking to New Feathers was awkward; she wasn't exactly the poster child for helpful friendliness. But she could give it a shot. She tucked a strand of white behind an ear as she paused.]

Hey yourself. Let me guess - new in town?

well this is a good thing!

[markofthewise]

... yeah. That would be hard. [And lonely. So lonely. Poor Suki. Poor dad.] I guess this place really is a step up, huh?

[destinysong]

[ He is a bit confused at that last part, yes. Is it a saying from the world she's from? He tilts his head just slightly but opts to ignore it. ]

I grew up surrounded by music.

[allforsixcredits]

[One corner of Darcy's lips quirks upwards as she rolls onto her side to better see the other girl, one hand lifting to shade her eyes from the sun. She laughs a little at the question, self-conscious but amused by it.]

Eesh. Am I that obvious? Or is there a floating sign over my head that everyone but me can see?

[ex_tessen852]

[As much as Suki wanted to believe what she's been told about this place, she had a hard time taking it all in. Not only was she in this new world that was full of wings, but she'd been there before? There could be people here she didn't know at all, but they knew her. That was what was bothering her the most. Sure, she wasn't happy about being taken from home, but somehow telling people she didn't know them bothered her more.

Needing some fresh air, Suki ended up just wandering around the village, half to get to know this new place, and half to just let it all sink in. There was this whole life she apparently lived, and she had no memory of it whatsoever.]

I'd hope so!

[theyreclumps]

[She nods.] Right! And there's a lot more freedom with what we can do here!

[theyreclumps]

[Give her a moment to step closer and take a good look at him.]

Hmm... I guess you aura resembles Air Nomad colours, but it's really bright, too!

[savedtheworld]

[Fresh air? How about a fresh Airbender incoming? He stops just short of her atop his air scooter. Sure, since her arrival he's felt lots of conflicting feelings - concern that's she stuck in Luceti again, hurt that she doesn't remember their previous times together there and worry about the effect it has on Sokka. But for Suki's sake, he's focusing on the strongest emotion: that he's glad to see her again.]

Hey Suki!

[savedtheworld]

[He's not exactly sure how the whole aura thing looks, but he lets her do her thing.]

It does? That's still nice. Bright is good! ...Right?

[touchofrogue]

Let's just say it's that time of the year.

[That, and as the proprietor of the Item Shop, Rogue knows pretty much everyone in the village by face, if not by name. She never was ace at introducing herself.]

Guessin' you got the speech already.
