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.

[Good afternoon, Luceti!

Oh, you're out and about, are you? Near Community House 4? Excellent!

What is that you see? A teenager standing on a chair outside? Yep. That'd be what that is.

She stands at the very very edge of the chair and does not jump. No. She hops forward, off the chair. Her little, white, grey, and black speckled wings beat furiously, trying and trying to keep her airborne. But she falls.

Face first.

And actually laughs as she gets up, brushes herself back off, and gets on the chair again.]

why

[beholdthewretch]

[Victor cringes, but laughs, from the sidelines. Of course, he's making a spectator sport out of this.]

A for effort?

because you love me

[oneofthelost]

I read about hovering.

[Hop. Fall. Up. Brush.]

If they can do it? I can do it.

[beholdthewretch]

You're the little chicken that could!

[Okay, he's enjoying this way way too much. It's just fun watching her tiny little wings try so hard.]

[oneofthelost]

...Engine.

Train.

Y'know. "Choo choo."

[Because the American has to make fun of the E...F?L.

Because. What. French, Italian, German, and... something she never remembers.

And she just speaks English. Go her.]

[beholdthewretch]

I was making a reference to your wings. You know, making the joke more relevant to the situation?

But that's cool. Foreigners and English idioms aren't known for mixing well.

[Smirking? Who's smirking?]

But I gotta say, it was worth it getting you to say "Choo choo" seriously.

[oneofthelost]

Hey, that's the kind of thing you need to tell me is intentional. Otherwise, you just sound like you're screwing up.

[Even as she says it, though, she's grinning.]
