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.

it's all good!

[Toph startles a little. Not too badly, she kind of expects people to sneak up on her without meaning to. But - the other side? Oh, it figures. Toph sighs.]

Thanks. You just saved me a whole lot of time.

[Then she frowns.] Snack foods? These things are supposed to be snacks?

okay!

[thisisyourwakeupcall]

[his eyes flick up and down (not that Toph can tell), and he comes to a rather obvious conclusion]

Evidently. Y'know, kid, if you're blind it might be a good idea to ask for help before you start wandering around.

[a pause]

What else would they be?

[seismicity]

[ Rather than answer his question, she has a sharp reply for something that sticks out from his first bit: ] I don't need help! I do okay by myself, alright?

[thisisyourwakeupcall]

[ well, he might as well pick up some food while he's here, even if most of it's not the most nutritious. he's pretty hungry. ]

If you talk like that, you'd better back it up. Which way's the opposite side of the store?

[ actually, he's not sure how toph got this far without crashing into something, and he kind of wants to figure it out. in case it's important. ]

[seismicity]

[ Ha, she's got him there. She's not a completely helpless little blind girl! Growing up without sight's given her a pretty decent spatial awareness, something she's had to learn even before figuring out how to "see" with her feet.

So. Even if it takes a couple of moments of mentally backtracking the steps she took since entering the store, she does eventually point in the direction of the opposite side of the store. Or the general direction, anyway. He'll notice she's a couple of degrees off. ]

There.

[thisisyourwakeupcall]

[ well, that's pretty decent, he supposes. he reaches out, adjusting for those couple degrees, and then lets go quickly. he's a little rough, but not particularly malicious. ]

Close enough. I'll leave you to it then.

[seismicity]

[ Toph huffs a bit, crossing her arms across her chest. ]

Okay.

[ ... ]

Thanks, I guess.

[ toph might be learning manners, but rivaille sure hasn't. he grunts and shrugs ]

Whatever, kid.

[ he'll be starting off now, footsteps light and difficult to hear. ]
