ain't no party like a luceti-club party
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.

So there really aren't any wild Pokémon... I knew something was up with this place!
[
no subject
[thank goodness, too. with mei and her pokémon here, he'll be able to get some nice data on how sudden changes in environments affect potential growth of pokémon.
and awwww, why are you hiding, altaria? he just wants to see how strong you're getting! see-- even beheeyem is wondering why you're hiding with the way it's making its way towards you.]
I see... Strengthening the bonds between yourself and your pokémon even beyond reaching your goals. [he mumbles a bit to himself before he shakes his head.] A shame your training had to be interrupted so prematurely, but perhaps you can use this to your advantage-- being in such unfamiliar environment can be considered a challenge, mentally and physically!
no subject
Altaria is still shuffling a bit when the Beheeyem gets closer - she's not quite used to Colress and his Pokémon, seeing as her Flying-type disadvantage wouldn't do so well in battle against his majority of Electric and Steel-types. pair that up with a Timid nature and you've got a very shy dragon. ]
Well... yeah. Being Champion was my dream, but that doesn't mean I should just stop training now that I am! Gotta keep up the pressure, you know? [ now that she's psyching herself up, a true smile can be seen forming (along with her hands balling up in excitement)! ] Maybe! I definitely want to explore this place more; we're not in Unova, right? So that means there's tons of new things to see!
lkjfdsa your mei is so cute i just Q/////Q i'm sorry i'm being a snail
meanwhile, beheeyem doesn't like altaria being so shy. his trainer may be a bit weird, but he's nice, he promises! look, he's even flashing his finger things cutely, 'dancing' a bit to the lights to get you to come out.
colress, of course, ignores the little show as he nods heartily in agreement to what mei says.]
Indeed! Unfortunately I cannot say for certain whether or not we are away from Unova's borders, but with new, uncharted territory comes all sorts of hidden potential for the curious adventurer! I myself can't help but wonder what sorts of fauna inhabits this land if it's not Pokémon.
[potential expansion for his research? maybe.]
omg thank you!!! o////o your colress is super too, and don't worry!! take your time <3
that does get Altaria to peek out a little and curiously see what this Pokemon is doing... okay, that's a little funny. she lets out a small chirp, and her expression can be summed up as "^7^". ]
And curious adventurer is my middle name. Pokemon Trainer Mei is on the case! [ FIST PUMP. ]
no subject
hurrah! altaria's coming out! beheeyem does a backflip in the air before flashing and jigging some more.]
As expected! [good ol' mei! it's good to know she's as eager to discover the workings of this place as much as he is! and speaking of...] Ah-- by the way, if it's not too much of a bother, I would like to see something of yours: namely your wings. I cannot examine my own, unfortunately.
[it's for science
if it doesn't make me seem like a gigantic creeper for asking do you by any chance have a plurk....
more amused chirps from Altaria! she'll even try a little dance herself - it just looks like too much fun to pass up. Mei on the other hand... is loosing her smile. she's not sure about this...
Um... I guess so. Just a look, okay? [ SETTING THE GROUND RULES NOW, but she does turn her back to him, giving him full view of the small pink wings protruding from her back. ]
not at all! it's ~entrainment
Of course. [with his thanks, he keeps his word by only looking at the wings-- see, he's even being gracious by keeping his hands to himself, as much as he wants to touch! his gaze sweeps over her wings with a critical eye, examining every feather, curve, and even the joint where the wings connects to the back. how strange... their shape are unlike any wings he's ever--
...waitaminnit.]
...Miss Mei.
no subject
adjusting her visor out of slight nervousness, Mei takes a semi-deep breath. she can practically feel his gaze on her back, and thinking about it gives her a bit of a chill. she wants to give him the benefit of the doubt after everything that happened, but she still just can't bring herself to trust him fully.
she flinches a bit when he says her name, turning her neck to look at him. ] What? Is there something wrong with them?
no subject
hi you didn't need that personal space did you]
Were you ever aware of the barcode that is on the back of your neck?
no subject
N-no... Wait, you're not trying to scare me or something, are you? Why would I have a barcode on my neck?!
no subject
[never mind the obvious. he fishes out his tablet-laptop-thing from his labcoat (because it was totally there when he woke up!), getting ready to activate the camera function on it.]
Perhaps it was an addition along with the wings if you cannot remember having it. If you'd like, I can show it to you!
no subject
Do it! Then I wanna see if you have one, too.
no subject
[there's a brief pause before the automated 'click!' sounds, and colress taps on the screen a couple of times before presenting to mei a picture of her neck, barcode and all.
see!! he wasn't lying!!!!!]
no subject
cue the tiny girl going into a slight panic!!! ]
W-w-what? How did that get there? The wings were really nice and pretty and fun, but why do I need a barcode?!
no subject
[and yet somehow despite this possible revelation, he's still smiling. he pockets his tablet, not finding any further use for it for now, and directs his attention to mei.]
Now then, you wanted to check if I had a barcode as well?
no subject
but okay, let's try and stay calm. deep breaths. in... and out. okay. ] But why would someone want to track us? Actually, who would even want to track us for that matter? That's really creepy!
[ yeah, things are definitely getting weird. but she's still curious about all of this, so she nods. ] Yeah. If it's not just me, I might feel a little less worried...
no subject
I'm afraid I cannot answer the 'who'. The 'why', however, could lead to several different answers, tracking subjects for an experiment being a possibility.
[If Only He Knew]
no subject
and lo and behold, there's a barcode. ] You have one too. It looks a little different than mine... But do you really think they're for experimenting?
[ she doesn't have good history with people who do experiments. COUGH COUGH. ]
no subject
[satisfied(?!?!?!?!) with the confirmation that a barcode is there, he straightens, adjusting his coat properly before facing mei again.]
Yes, although peculiar, there could be other possibilities for our being brought here without prior knowledge or consent... but the fact that we also awoke with new additions to our anatomy does raise several questions! [his own blue wings give a twitch in emphasis.] The barcodes are quite the anomaly as well, wouldn't you agree?
no subject
Yeah, I agree. It isn't every day you wake up with wings and barcodes on you, after all! [ she holds her chin, sort of attempting to look deep in thought. ] This will definitely require some investigation.
