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.

Of course not! [Growl. He knows he's not going to get away with this. He hunches over, arms now folding across his chest again and practically looking like he's pouting because he doesn't want to have to apologize to her.]

Arrrrgh. [His eyes keep darting back from her to looking forward, looking like he's got something to say but he just won't say it.]

[capsule_corp]

[ Wiping her eyes, she finally looks over at him again, just in time to catch his suspicious eye movements. ]

Today, Vegeta! Spit out whatever other insult it is you've got rattling around in that empty head of yours so I can hurry up and get home!

[misterbrief]

[His mouth turns up and he straightens his back, but he knows, he knows if he doesn't take care of this now he will sorely regret it later. Because man, Bulma being all pissed off at home too will just be awful.]

I'm sorry for laughing at you.

[It's barely audible and he hates himself right now for saying it but it's better than the alternative.]

[capsule_corp]

That's right, you sh--

[ She was nodding, reveling in her own self-righteousness, until it sunk in. He apologized. Vegeta. Apologized. The rest of her sentence is caught in her throat as she turns slowly to simply stare at him, her mouth gaping.

Grats, Vegeta. You managed to silence her again! ]

[misterbrief]

[He glances back over to see that gaping mouth of hers. Oh my goddddddddddddddddddddddd]

What, is there something wrong, huh?! [His face is sort of red though, he's got a good inkling why she's gasping due to how much younger she is than him. That'll happen when your husband is around twenty years older than you and he changes a lot since then.]

[capsule_corp]

[ She gets right in his face, still wearing her shocked expression. Her voice is barely over a whisper. ]

Did you apologize? To me? Just now?

[misterbrief]

...

[His eye twitches again, but at least she's being quiet about this.]

Well, I don't believe I stuttered, now did I? [Yes, yes he did.]

[capsule_corp]

I'm shocked, Vegeta. There really is a heart in there under all those muscles!

[ She smirks, and this time, she kisses him on the cheek. Then she turns and continues walking ahead of him. ]

And after falling for the oldest trick in the book!

1/2

[misterbrief]

[This sucks. He looks down at the ground and burns a bright red when she lands her own kiss, growling again in defeat. Have a heart. Bah. So what.]

2/2

[misterbrief]

What do you mean 'trick'? What trick?!

[capsule_corp]

Oh come on!

[ She covers her mouth, trying to stifle a laugh. ]

Oh, boohoo! Vegeta laughed at me! I really can't believe it worked!

[misterbrief]

What!? You! That isn't fair, you know! How could you?! [WAS SHE LYING TO HIM NOW OR DID SHE REALLY SUCCESSFULLY TRICK HIM...]

No way, I don't buy it! You were completely upset and you know it, don't you lie to me, I know you better than that!

[capsule_corp]

Are you sure about that?

[ She looks back over her shoulder and sticks her tongue out at him, before winking. Apparently, all those mischievous genes didn't come solely from Vegeta. ]

[misterbrief]

Ah-! Yes I'm sure! You devilish woman, get back here! [He catches back up to her again. Honestly, the nerve of this woman-!]

It doesn't matter anyway because I don't remember even saying such a thing! [So there!]

[capsule_corp]

That's okay! I'll remember it forever! Underneath all that... [ What even is it? ] Vegeta, is a really big softy!

[ She links her arm with his and rests her head on his shoulder, laughing. ]

Don't worry, I won't tell anyone! For now...

[misterbrief]

Soft?! I'm not soft! H-Hey!



[He just lets out an exasperated sigh when she links her arm with his, and he instinctively pulls her in closer, even though he's totally done with her antics.

But even so...]

...



Yeah, yeah, whatever. No one would believe you anyway, woman. I've made sure of that. [His wife. Can't live with her, can't live without her.]

[capsule_corp]

Yeah, you're probably right.

[ Sometimes she can barely believe it herself, really... ]

[misterbrief]

[He chuckles softly, pretty happy despite that fiasco they'd just suffered through. He still doesn't understand how they get along at the end of the day, but they usually do- and he's not going to argue about that.]

Let's go home, shall we? [And then when she's not looking, he's sneaking out and getting his own food...he'll get her back yet for this.]

[capsule_corp]

[ She nods. Honestly, she's not even hungry anymore after all of that... But, that doesn't mean she's forgotten. ]

And just so you know... [ She gives him a cheerful smile. ] You can cook dinner as soon as the store's restocked.

[misterbrief]

You want me to what? [EXCUSE YOU.]

I'm not cooking anyone's dinner. That's your job.

[capsule_corp]

Suit yourself! I'm on vacation.

[misterbrief]

Fine by me. I'll just go to the restaurant instead then! [Nevermind he's been actually trying to learn to cook in her absence. He's leaving out all the stuff he's burned in the past ten months. He can make toast and use the microwave. Maybe boil noodles.]

[capsule_corp]

Since when do you go out to restaurants?! And this place actually has one? Could have fooled me...

[ She huffs loudly, turning her nose up. ]

I don't even think I believe you! I bet that you'll be begging me to cook you something by tomorrow.

[misterbrief]

We'll see about that. [HE HAD TO GO SOMEWHERE FOR A DECENT MEAL EVENTUALLY...] This place does have one in fact, and I daresay it's better than any of that slop you serve.

[Not true. But he's being a jackass.]

[capsule_corp]

Is that so? Well, I hope it's as good as you say, because you can go ahead and eat there from now on!

[ And definitely take her there on a date, which she will demand the next time they aren't arguing. ]
