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.

The name is Karoline Mason. A pleasure.

[Oh how it's always fun to see that look of slow realization. She's equal parts sugar, spice, and everything nasty.]

Guns are part of the job you see. I couldn't very well function if I were afraid to have one pointed at me. [She taps her chin.]

Why, I consider a day without bullets flying past me a failure. Oh did I forget to mention? I'm a mercenary for hire. Sadly my bombs weren't the only things taken from me upon my awakening here...or I'd offer you a business card Miss. Revy.

[tickle_me]

[If Karol was hoping to horrify Revy with that revelation, she'll be disappointed. Revy instead seems fully entertained. Is that a slasher smile on her face?]

I knew it. You look like Little Miss Muffet but you smell like hell's breath. Blood, smoke, death. Hell, you're not even the first bitch I met like that. That one looked a lot better lying on the ground after I punched her, though. Don't make me have to decide the same about you.

[gothic_gunning]

[So playtime is over? It was fun while it lasted. Though she's actually intrigued that this Revy person would be so quick on the uptake, and a little irritated for reasons unknown.]

Please. I have no intention of picking a fight that I am not completely convinced I can win. Despite the accent I am not Crocodile Dundee. Though I am disappointed you saw through me so quickly. It betrays your outer appearance. Though I suppose it takes one to know one hmm?

[Then she realizes it. The source of her irritation. This Revy reminds her so much of her little sister Meifa, the violent bitch. That alone makes it hard to continue being cordial.]

Sadly, you remind me of someone.

[tickle_me]

[Playtime's not over, darling. As far as Revy's concerned, it's just getting started. Even if she's less irritated and more just suspicious.]

You don't say.

[Look at how not interested she sounds.]

[gothic_gunning]

[Where's the C4 when you need it? The world is overpopulated in the first place, so one less person isn't a big deal right? This woman is Meifa so hard that it hurts.]

No matter. I hate thinking of her without having a bomb in my hand to calm my nerves. I'm pretty sure the two of you would get along just fine if you didn't kill each other first.

[Maybe introducing them wouldn't be so bad after all. Two for two would be excellent.]

[tickle_me]

Well, gee, that's real sweet of you to think of matchmaking for me, but I ain't interested. And even if I were, it doesn't do jackshit for me in this fuckin' craphole.

[Carelessly, effortlessly, Revy fires off three shots at a tree a little to Karol's left, knocking down the cans she'd placed there.]

[gothic_gunning]

[Without flinching Karol turns and marvels at the accuracy. Those aren't skills you pick up by following the rules.]

Matchmaking? Don't get me wrong. I simply hoped you two would kill each other and make the world a better place. If I happened to be involved it would be to euthanize whomever managed to live after your fight.

[tickle_me]

[Yeah, who needs rules like Earth Logic that says it's near impossible to actually be anywhere near accurate while dual-wielding guns? Fuck that shit and dump its corpse in the sea.]

Hey, hey, hey. Who's the chica who said she didn't want to be picking fights she can't win?

[gothic_gunning]

[Well hey, she should be on the internet talking about movies with friends from school rather than thinking about how wonderful sulfur smells fresh after a blast,so Earth logic is meaningless here.]

I wouldn't be fighting. My little twin bitch of a sister Meifa is exactly like you, right down to the maturity level. Which is saying a lot considering she's my age and you clearly are not.

[tickle_me]

[Revy, immature? Never.]

Jesus fuck, Miss Muffet, go take your Freudian baggage somewhere else. I ain't your fuckin' therapist. Unless you really want me to prescribe you a nice bottle of hollowpoint pills in that pretty little brain of yours.

[Bang! Bang! Two more cans down. If Karol keeps up her yapping Revy might just "mistake" her for another can. So what if people here in Luceti come back to life? At least the girl would shut up for a week or so.]

[gothic_gunning]

[For Christ sakes. She's beginning to wonder if this is some sort of nightmare where Meifa aged and she didn't. There is no way a person can be this similar to someone else on purpose.]

I actually think taking a bullet is preferable to this garbage. You've actually managed to make the idea of life after death unappealing. Bravo.

[Outright killing someone has never felt so right.]

[tickle_me]

Death wish it is, then. Guess that's not all that surprising with you being all gothic and shit. Unfortunately for you, ammo doesn't come by easy in this place. Means I can't be wasting a bullet on a porcelain doll like you.

[Which brings up the question of why she's using said ammo on aluminum cans and innocent trees. No, more importantly -- if that's the case, why is Revy now pointing her gun in Karol's direction?]
