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

It won't do that thing on you again, will it? [Do you really want to sticky hands?

And he is an awful boyfriend.]

If I leave it alone for awhile, it should be fine! [So he'll just... hold it! Actually, he's walking to the fountain. He's going to rinse his hands off over there.] Besides, it's important you fully savor your first soda. You'll never have it for the first time again.

[Her hand quickly goes to cover her mouth as she laughed.]

It's really a spiritual experience. Something I won't forget for the rest of my life.

You joke, Suki. But you'll be hooked before long. Trust me.

And what makes you so sure? [She was about to laugh, but stopped herself. The other Suki probably liked it, so he probably just knew from that.]

... instincts?

[The way her expression changed was hint enough she was at one of those uncomfortable realziations.]

Right. Instincts.

[A sigh.]

You can just tell me if it's something I liked before, you know? I'd rather just know instead of making a fool out of myself.

I-- [Headshake. She's right.] I didn't want you to feel like... you know.

[That she has to act like another Suki. Or that she has no secrets.]

I know, but I'm still the same girl, so were bound to do the same things. Besides, I'd rather have you tell me I'm doing something I already did than some stranger.

[Still the same girl...

He wonders if he'd have said that a year ago.]

I just didn't want things to be weird for you. That's all.

I think they're going to be weird no matter what. I'll try to not let it bother me though. [Try, and probably fail.]

Well. You used to like soda a lot. Not as much as me. But I think you went with it because, well. I liked it.

[It was weird just telling her these things.]

[She actually smiles.]

Yeah. That might be the same now.

[HMMMMM.]

You also liked to bring me snacks while I was at the smithy.

Well, I guess.... [WAIT A TICK!] Really now? What else did I like to do then?

Well. Sometimes you'd bring me breakfast in bed. Not all the time. But it was a thing you did.

Oh. Is that so? Did I give you massages when you came home too?

[Oh. Oh. That's good.]

Yes, yes you did. They were amazing.

[She just stares at him.]

You know I can still kick your butt, right?

[After two years of the most intense training he's ever endured, he nearly almost points out that he's no pushover anymore. But his mind is a year out of practice, even though his body doesn't seem to be. And, well, he remembers when they had their first spar when she came back to Luceti. She'd been happy for him to do so well. Less happy she didn't do so well in turn.

So he just smiled awkwardly.]

Hey, no need for that. These are all normal things that girlfriends do, really!

[Then that's something she'll learn.]

Luckily I'm not a normal girlfriend then.

This is true. [It's okay though, it's just the way he likes her. Although...] So that's a no on the massages, huh?

Maybe. We'll have to see if you deserve one. Or, I might just force you to give me one.

Maybe I will. I'd probably be great at it. I've got powerful fingers. You know, with all the smithing and stuff.

[They were calloused even back in their world, but they were only rougher now thanks to his daily smithy work.]

Well, my shoulders are a little stiff. Maybe I could go for a massage right now?
