Test Flight!

[lucetimods]

the luceti test flight 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 flight 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.

I know we need to get home, but I don't think there's a physiological reason for why we can't return to Boston.

This world is different but we should try without actively interfering in the health of other residents, Walter.

We're going to get home somehow.

[ He's not the only one with family back there.]

For now though, let's just go back to the house and we'll look into other options.

[unfringed]

[But if there isn't a physiological reason, then why? Metaphysical? Something else?

So--

It must be something else.

Walter looks down at his makeshift box and frowns.]

I wouldn't be interfering in their health - it would be a simple non-invasive surgery. Tissue samples, a feather or two. Nothing so terrible.

[Unless he found something. Then he'd want to see inside their minds, pore over their genetic structure. He knows this. He knows it, but he can't help it.]

But...yes, you're right. We should get back to the house. I think the drugs are wearing off. Their auras aren't as bright anymore.

[universal_bridge]

We could probably come up with a questionnaire and ask if they'd mind donating a feather or two for your research but I really don't think anyone is going to agree to having tissue samples taken.

[ Well he's at least coming along with her. ]

Why don't you let me ask the clinic if they have some blood samples or something for you, okay?

[unfringed]

Oh! Blood samples!

[Yes, that's an excellent idea! He'd prefer them to be fresh, but he can make due with older samples, too.]

Yes, ask the clinics - both of them - for samples from whatever residents have given them. I'll ask Asterick to create a survey and soon we'll have a good basis for the beginning of our research.

[universal_bridge]

I'll ask them sometime tomorrow.

[ There's the slightest pause in her footsteps before she catches up to him again ]

Walter, you do remember Astrid isn't here, right?

[unfringed]

[His excitement dies down a little and he smiles faintly.]

....Yes, of course. I remember. She isn't here now.

[Then it jumps again.]

Oh, but what if she appears? With how strange this location is, it's possible she will.

[universal_bridge]

It is possible, yes.

[ And she'd welcome either her or Peter at this point.]

[unfringed]

Excellent! Then I will prepare for her arrival! [He needs the distractions after all, and he misses her, even if he won't admit it.

Time to scurry off, not toward home, but toward the shops.]

[universal_bridge]

We can prepare for her arrival tomorrow.

Let's go home and eat some lunch first.

[unfringed]

Oh, is it lunch already?

[He stops and considers what is at home.]

I was so preoccupied, it seems the time has gotten away from me. Agent Dunham, you wouldn't happen to know where I could find rye bread, would you?
