TEST DRIVE MEME



WHAT THE FUCK TO DO:

► STEP 1; Post a comment with a character that's not in HH as if they're already in the setting or alternative version, post character who is in HH. Scenarios if you need them!
► STEP 2; Tag around and get a feel for your characters, whether or not you're voice testing or planning to actually app them in!
► STEP 3; Post this all over your plurk and get people to get their big asses in here and force them to app or face the consequences. Oh, and I guess have fun. I suppose that's important, too.

no...YOU

[varmint]

Ah? You made practice sound very harsh just now, haha![ But he isn't denying it's effectiveness, not when he's keenly aware of Dylan's talents, as well as his own brief shortcomings.] Right, right.

[Don't mind if he fishes into his jacket for a cigarette of his own. Errands, remember??]

What were you planning on doing after this, then?

FINE... how about US 8))

[duramente]

[can he bum one off elijah... He spares one last look at the tiny group still listening to the awful band of awfulness, before redirecting his attention to the question.]

Uh, right, I need to go shopping. [He would have given any evil eyes for any jokes about 'domesticity', except he's used to having to shop for himself and his hobo friends...] How about you?

oh..............ok fine u win this round!!!

[varmint]

[sure he can, if he doesn't mind Elijah's brand???] I just finished.

[He was gonna grab something frosted and sweet somewhere close by but only to sate his sweet tooth. That's a shame, Dylan...Elijah LIKES buying groceries, picking out meals, but the whole false suburban environment is always a inherently unnerving.] You ought to get started on that, yes?

[It looks like he's about to head off but he pulls an apple from his bag instead, tossing it Dylan's way without much warning.]

Come on!

VICTORY!!

[duramente]

[He manages to catch it with one hand, momentarily surprised.]

What, you're gonna come with? [Not that he's displeased with the idea. It's not like they have all the time back home to hang out, thanks to occupying two different ends of the spectrum, so having the opportunity now is nice. He shines the apple on his sleeve, coming up beside him.] Isn't Meredith waiting up for you?

[whatever resentment Dylan has for that arrangement has thoroughly lived its life back when he was a GIANT DUMB BULLY, but there may be a trace of old childhood envy left over. hmph meredith!!]

NO WAY!!

[varmint]

[Elijah significantly brightens at the mention of Meredith, completely and still oblivious to whatever reaction it may bring otherwise.]

Ah, that's right! Meredith is at the house, waiting for me...[He gives a little sigh and rests a hand over his chest. Wow if you squint hard enough you can almost see the SPARKLES...just barely..]

But I'm sure he has errands of his own. I can skip out for an hour or two. [Elijah smiles at him and it probably isn't as devious as he makes it seem but somehow, he still manages.] Is that alright with you??

[duramente]

[WOW gross sparkles!! He crunches into his apple with a little more force than necessary, chewing.] Yeah, sure. We can finish up soon so we don't leave him wondering.

[not like he cares!! Dylan brightens up though, brushing the subject of meredith aside.] Got any recommended places? There's too many stores around that I haven't checked them all yet.

1/2 omg

[varmint]

Oh, is that right? [Now he looks all too prepared to spend a whole afternoon showing Dylan the best places to buy things- which may or may not consist of...EVERYTHING.]

You've been to Holly Mall, haven't you? I prefer the veggies from here, although H-Mart has your usual counter goods. Holly Mall, H-Mart...

...what uncreative names. [He stops, looks at Dylan-]

[varmint]

PFFFT, hahahaha! Isn't that the funniest thing?? [Elijah gives Dylan's back a SLAP, laughing and continuing along the way towards the Mall. He's just happy to hang around you okay...]

elijah u loser

[duramente]

[Dylan ROLLS HIS EYES good-naturedly, keeping pace with him.]

Creativity ain't exactly the thing around here, is it? Look at the townspeople! Can't get much more boring than them. [the npcs don't even react when he tries to rile them up...]

dylan u smelly head

[varmint]

[pffft, riling up the npcs is as useful as anything else in this city...which translates to IT ISN'T. They usually just stare eerily.]

Ah, the Landlord likes to keep things simple. You could probably tell, it applies to all of Holly Heights. [He pulls an apple of his own from the bag and bites into it.]

Ehs ah liddle creepy! [Chew chew chew.]

are u implying something about his hair!!

[duramente]

[table manners WHO NEEDS THOSE!! it is decidedly creepy, and it's a thought Dylan's had more than once. he huffs aloud]

Has anyone ever met the guy? [He glances over at Elijah as he asks. however elusive the landlord might be, he can't hide forever, and maybe he expects Elijah to be one of the few who's met him.]

as petunia said GET A HAIRCUT !!

[varmint]

[He's too busy enjoying this apple now to reply right away, but once the question does sink in, Elijah chews thoughtfully and with a distracted hum.] Hmmmm...

He makes uninvited house visits from time to time. Just to check up on things, mind you. But as soon as one sees his face, they can't describe it, nor remember it when he leaves...[Elijah's tone becomes more ominous as he speaks, until he's close to a dark whisper, sliding his gaze over to him with a shadowy, hooded look...............]

[JUST KIDDIN'!!] But of course that's what I've been told! He's never visit me before.

[A shrug!]
