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.

It's okay. It's Naruto~

[twinlionfists]

[She turned at the sound of that voice calling her name, byakugan deactivating as she dropped her hands to her side.]

N-Naruto-kun!

[Tiny, flushed and pleased smile, okay?]

B')

[believeit]

Hinata! So they kidnapped you too?!

[They had been standing together the last he remembered.]

[twinlionfists]

[She remembered guarding him and then Neji throwing himself in front of them both. And then...staying with her cousin as he died. Then, she was here.]

D-do you mean the Malnosso? Yes, I-I suppose so.

[believeit]

Yeah, those guys! I remember we were standing there fighting and then. I dunno, I woke up here.

[twinlionfists]

It-it was much the same for me. [She closed her eyes in an effort to forget the exact moment she'd been ripped away from their time to become the captive of the Malnosso.]

How...how long have you been here then?

[believeit]

Only a few hours! I woke up here and they'd taken all my stuff! but then Sakura-chan found me and took me to this place to look for them and- hey, there's a shop where you don't even need money! We can go get something to eat y'know.

[twinlionfists]

[Excuse her while she blushes at the implication.] Y-yes, Ino-san helped me pick out some clothes.

And I-I had not thought about food. [Cue her stomach growling and her face growing redder by the moment.] Perhaps I should have.

[believeit]

Alright, Hinata! That's it! You're coming with me! [ITS RAMEN TIME]

[twinlionfists]

N-no, do...do not t-trouble yourself, N-naruto-kun. Not for me. I-I will eat soon.

[Although she's protesting, she is pleased that he's worried about her. However, he's going to have to make her come along if he's determined to have her eat with him.]

[believeit]

But it's not like we have anything else to do!

[A pause, then he's stopping to turn back and look at her.] Or did you already make plans with someone else?

[twinlionfists]

N-no! I haven't! [And if she had? Naruto would still take some sort of precedence. She's staring at her shoes, trying not to let him see just how bright her blush is.]

[believeit]

[yay, good.] Then let's go eat!

[twinlionfists]

[She nods and slowly comes up to stands next to Naruto.] I-I do not know where to go, so you will have to lead the way.

[believeit]

I know of a place! It's this way, let's go! [motioning for her to follow c:]

[twinlionfists]

[She follows alongside him, a tiny smile on her lips as she does so. She isn't surprised that even though he's arrived only a few hours beforehand that he knows where to get ramen already. It's a skill he's acquired over the years, she's sure.]

I-I...You do not have to come with me.

[Not that she wants him to go, but she doesn't want to be a burden to him anymore.]

[believeit]

But I'm hungry again, I wanna eat ramen too! [It's probably listed on his personnel files somewhere, a built in ramen radar. But still, he looks cheery enough, leading the way to that place he'd seen earlier on.]

Do you think they have miso? Eh, of course they'd have miso! Right?

[twinlionfists]

[She's not surprised. It seems that Naruto is always hungry. However, he seems content right now and she doesn't want to ruin it. His smile makes her happy.]

I-I am sure they do, Naruto-kun. [She hoped they had his favourite miso pork ramen, or it could get ugly.]

[believeit]

[He slows down a little to fall in step with her.]

Ne, Hinata. What type of ramen do you like best?

[twinlionfists]

[She makes a tiny noise of surprise as he pulls up even with her.]

I...I don't know. Perhaps shrimp?

[believeit]

Then we'll get one serving of Miso and one serving of Shrimp!

[twinlionfists]

Th-that's not necessary! [Really, she will eat anything that you pick, Naruto. You need to make her put her foot down on this one.]

[believeit]

It's fine, it's fine! Besides, you don't even need to pay for things here, apparently.

[twinlionfists]

I-I know that... How does one make a living if everything here is free? That does not foster an actual economy.

[Okay, so she's a little smart, and it keeps her from concentrating on the fact that this is the first time she's been alone with Naruto since she's confessed her feelings. You know, what with Pain, the Kage Summit, Sasuke, and the 4th Shinobi War to deal with. So, idle topics of conversation are good right? She doesn't want to appear to be that creepy girl he remembered from when they were children.]

[believeit]

I dunno, that's just what Shikamaru told me earlier when I talked to him. This place is weird though, like they steal your clothes like a punch of perverts, then just leave them in this shop for you to go and pick up again for free! What's the point of that? Huh??

[He's partially aware of it too... honestly though, the whole situation hasn't quite sunk in yet so he's just chatting away about whatever pops into his head. It's better than discussing the harshness of war, right? At least for now.

[twinlionfists]

[She really hadn't wanted to think about how she'd woken up in clothes that she did NOT put on herself. It was beyond embarrassing.]

I-I still have not...discovered the purpose of our wings. [Although, she found his orange wings both cute and unsurprising from the blond shinobi.]

And if it were not for the fact that this is not our home, it does not seem completely bad in this village.
