TEST DRIVE MEME!

SO HOW DOES IT WORK?

► STEP 1; Post a comment with a character that's not in HH as if they're already in the setting; alternative version, post character who is in HH. Scenarios if you need 'em!
► STEP 2; Tag around and get a feel for your characters, whether you're just voice testing or planning to actually app them in!
► STEP 3; Post this all over your plurk and get people to join in on this jolly good fun. Don't forget: it's mandatory.

[Practice makes perfect, yes, but you should practice on unused, quiet roads, or in empty parking lots, or somewhere there wouldn't be many people walking around!! And w o w you're only older by a few months, hush child.

When Hilbert offers a ride, Cheren glances over at Serperior, who seems to agree with what Cheren was thinking: he wasn't getting in that car, not unless he was in his Pokeball and safely bubble-wrapped or something. Since Cheren doesn't have a Pokeball he can retreat into for safety--]

If you want to come along, we don't mind. The park isn't far from here, so I think I'd rather walk. [is that the nicer way of saying you suck at driving]

If your car veers off by itself, I don't know which is more dangerous: the car itself, or trying to drive it. You should have someone that knows more about cars look at it.

[Respect your elders, Cheren!!

Hilbert recognizes Cheren's words as a rejection of his offer, though he's kind of surprised how nice it's said instead of cuttingly blunt like in earlier years. That's nice.]

I guess I will - to both. Do you think it'll be okay just to leave it lying around like that?

[No, two years have helped considerably with Cheren's attitude. Teaching probably helped him become a bit more patient and less abrasive, too, but that was debatable. That side of him is still there, of course, but it takes a lot more to make it come to the surface. And at the moment, he's a bit too shaken up by the car almost hitting him and doing his best to try and keep Hilbert out of the car. If he were as rude about it as he might have been, who knows if he would've agreed.]

Well... It's not in a proper parking spot, but it is on the side of the road. Honestly, I'd be more worried about getting in trouble for attempting to drive without knowing how than parking illegally if I were you.

I can't say I've always had the best priorities, so you're probably right.

[As always. World need saving? Boy, he sure does need to finish beating the Battle Subway and participating in Musicals for all the Props... Though those were just distractions from his concerns about if he could really awaken the dragon or not.]

I'd just worry if it was in someone's way.

[You protags clearly have no sense of urgency or proper priorities!!!

Cheren glances back at the car before answering. Sure, it wasn't parked very neatly, and it probably could be considered in the way, but...]

I think there's enough space for them to drive around it. It's not like other people don't park in the road, either.

[None at all!!

Hilbert looks thoroughly relieved.]

Then I can just abandon it without worry! Let's go! [He'll have to drive it back but. Details.]

[With any luck, it'll have been towed and placed back in front of Hilbert's house by the time they come back. And then he won't have to worry about both Hilbert driving and Hilbert offering him a ride home. A win-win for everyone, he thinks.

But yes, to the park we go. Cheren starts walking in that direction, Serperior following behind him like this is HeartGold/SoulSilver or something like that.]

Why not take classes if you're so determined to drive?

[But Cheeereeeen, he'll never get better if he doesn't make some mistakes and cost the lives of the beautiful yards all around them!

Hilbert'll follow, of course. Maybe being a little quick in his walk. You know, protag stride.]

Do you think they'd let me? I mean, I'm too old for school, right? I might just buy a bike if I'm not cut out for it.

[It might cost the lives of the beautiful people, too!!! Good thing death isn't permanent.]

It's not like you're thirty years old. You're only just barely too old to be forced into going to school here. Besides, there's a university here, as well. [Maybe they have driving classes, who actually knows.]

If not that, you could try asking around.

[UNIVERSITY...

...

THAT'S LIKE, SITTING AROUND IN CLASSROOMS LISTENING TO A LECTURE FOR TWO HOURS.

CHEREN, CHEREN, CHEREN. That is just not suitable for the active outdoorsy protag.]

I don't think I'm suitable for university, so I'll probably just ask around. And buy a bike. Hilda'll probably want to race me, after all. We'll get you one too! [And then they can all race together...]

[WELL UNIVERSITY SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA TO HIM, OKAY. Clearly Hilbert needs to learn to sit down and relax and enjoy a good lecture or two.]

I wouldn't be opposed to that. Even if we're not traveling around here like we might be used to, a bike has its uses. Hopefully they aren't too expensive here. [he's not paying $1,000,000 for a bike, thanks...]

[NO THAT TAKES AWAY PRECIOUS HIT AND RUN TIME.]

Even if it is, I'd rather ride something I'm familiar with than go without it. So I'll buy yours too! [And everyone else's too.]

[YOU NEED AN INTERVENTION]

Are you sure you have enough money for that? [be the oprah of bikes, Hilbert. Do it.]

[YOU NEED A HITERVENTION]

I'll get enough sometime? [Oh he will, he will.]

[HILBERT YOU ARE TERRIFYING]

Maybe we should start with seeing if we can rent bikes from somewhere. That might be a bit cheaper.
