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.

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?

[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.]

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

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

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

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

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

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.]

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

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.]

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.

[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.

I dunno either.. You can't fly or anything with them. [He had already tried :| ]

N-no, I would imagine not. They seem too small to support a human body, which is much denser than a bird's.

[An awkward pause as she tried to think up a topic to discuss as they walked. She is a little relieved and unhappy that an eating place seems to be coming up on their left.]

Th-thank you.

Yeah, well I jumped off a tree branch and I definitely didn't fly and-

Huh? Hinata? Thanks for what?

[It's not hard to imagine Naruto-kun wanting to test out his new appendages by jumping off of a tree branch. She wasn't even worried that he might have hurt himself because...well...he was Naruto-kun.

And what didn't she want to thank him for? He was constantly serving as a source of inspiration. He never let anything get him down for long. He always pushed forward to improve himself. Forced the village to notice him, to see him as a hero instead of as a demonic child that symbolized a creature that had once attacked the village. How did she thank him adequately for being the example of a great shinobi, despite all the setbacks thrown into his path at every angle.

She didn't thinks he had the words to do that.]

For...for being you.

[Cue a confused look for a moment. That's a kind of weird thing to say, thank you for being himself. Of course he's gonna be himself! He doesn't quite get it but still... it was a nice gesture. One that makes him smile one again.]

Hehe, thanks. And.. thanks for being you.

[Cue a huge blush across her entire face.]

Y-you are welcome, Naruto-kun.

[She looks down at the ground to keep from becoming too embarrassed.]

Hehehe.

Oh look, we're here at that store place! You can get whatever you want, it's my treat!

[Even though it's all free of charge. He will... carry the basket or something.]

[She smiles at his attitude. Of course she is very much aware that things in this village are free, but she also knows that he would have gladly paid for her to eat ramen back in Konoha. It was one of the many things she loved about him.]

Y-yes!
