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.

[... alive. Well hell, he doesn't need more than one guess for what that means.]

... I wouldn't go telling him that.

[girlverine]

No.

[She shifts.]

There are many things I should not tell any of you.

[snikting]

[When it came down to it, he had zero interest in his counterpart. He had enough problems of his own, he didn't need to worry about what his other self was up to.]

About us... or yourself?

[girlverine]

[Green eyes shift away, considering a point above his shoulder for a moment.]

...Both.

[snikting]

That's yer choice to make. [Admittedly, he's curious. And will, eventually, want to get more from her. But as it is, he's not her Logan and she's not his Laura. Push too hard and that fact will become too readily obvious.] So if you don't booze, what do you drink?

Oh my god I need more icons ugh.

[girlverine]

[She gives a faint nod of thanks at that, and then shrugs.]

Water? Sometimes soda.

[She doesn't give much thought to what she drinks, honestly.]

the time for icons will come

[snikting]

[He eyes her.]

Hm. You seem a Dr. Pepper type.

[Largely because he is and she's his clone, so it stands to reason.]

[girlverine]

[Green eyes widen, just for a moment. It stood to reason the other her...assuming there was another her...was much the same.]

...Yes.

[snikting]

Well there ya go. Now we got a reason to go get a drink together.

[He nods at the bar and leads the way.]

[girlverine]

[The teen hesitates, considering his back and the bar for a moment, before she moves to follow him into the building. She sniffs as she enters, making a mental tally of who and what is where.]

[snikting]

[He spares a glance back at her, then smirks.]

Don't take it into deeply, kid. Places like this, you'll start to smell things ya don't want to an' that's just bound to make ya lose yer appetite. There's some things yer best just not knowin' about.

[girlverine]

I have smelled far worse than this place.

[Is her only answer as she moves past him to sink down onto a barstool.]

[snikting]

So've I. I make it a point not to brag about it.

[The bartender comes over. Logan orders a beer for himself, a Dr. Pepper for the kid.]

[girlverine]

I was not-

[She cuts off, looking faintly annoyed, and then turns her attention to the soda that had been put in front of her. After a moment, she picks it up and takes a sip.]

It was just a statement of fact.

[snikting]

[Logan snickers. It was a little mean of him, sure. But she needed to loosen up a bit. He takes a much larger sip from his own booze. Nothing like cold alcohol to ease away the tensions of talking to your clone from another universe.]

Facts are overrated.

[girlverine]

[That makes her eyes narrow again, and she shifts on her stool until she is half-facing him, her soda held loosely in her fingers. It's something she expects from Logan, but it doesn't really tell her anything.]

Why would you think that?

[snikting]

They just complicate things. Like, yer looking up at the stars, right? Knowin' that they're big balls of gas or that they might already be dead doesn't make the sight any better. Facts or not, all ya need to know is its a damn pretty sight to see.
