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.

[ Being pretty oblivious as to how terrible her cooking actually looks, smells and tastes, Flora just nods happily at the question. ]

Mm, I did! Though I thought I should get an outside opinion on them.

[Ai reaches out with a tentative hand, grabbing hold of one of the girl's cookie bars. She takes a small bite - not before spending a brief moment examining it closely beforehand.

It wasn't a taste Ai expected a cookie to have, nor was it a taste she even remotely liked. Out of courtesy, however, she didn't let that show on her face as she lightly chewed without much of an expression.

She wanted to be honest, though, and break it to the girl gently.]

Um... Is this your first time baking cookies? I am not sure if you got them right...

[towered]

[ She watches, attentive and excited. The Professor and Luke never really seem around to try out her concoctions--because really, they can't even be considered food at this point--so it was always great to find someone willing to taste-test.

The reaction wasn't exactly what she'd been hoping for, however, and she seems puzzled a moment before responding. Had she mixed up the ingredients again? Sure, shed improvised a little on some of the things she didn't have on hand, but... ]

Hm? Ah...well, no. I bake quite a bit, actually! Though this was the first time something hadn't caught fire. [ Maybe that was what was wrong with them. ]

[koiwamizuiro]

[While not having caught fire was certainly an improvement over the contrary, these cookie bars were still a bit far from what Ai would consider actually edible.

Still, in an effort to help and determine what was wrong, she took one more small bite from the cookie bar that she still held in her hand.

Was that... actual dough or not?]

Are you following any recipe for these?

[towered]

I...well. [ She rubs at the back of her neck sheepishly. ] I do! Mostly. I mean, sometimes I improvise a bit when I don't have the right ingredients on hand, but...
