THEY TRYIN' TO CATCH ME RIDIN' DIRTY

[rollin]

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.

Copypasted, as usual.

[ She is, of course, a woman who wears pants under a long skirt and right now she's dressing in office chic with a high-waisted pencil skirt and a cream-colored sleeveless blouse. A little boring, really.

Her hand falls to her side and she turns toward him out of consideration. Not looking at the person you're speaking to generally implies disinterest, after all. ]

I suppose I don't disagree with that statement, but I personally would not wear anything resembling this style regardless. [ This particular piece or any of the others visible, come to think of it. She mulls over her reaction a moment and is immediately hit with a rush of embarrassment. ] I apologize. I was a little snippy.

[Don't worry, Quistis. Ringabel can dig the sexy librarian look ☆~（ゝ。∂）

He'd recognized his own folly in not addressing her directly, and he turns to meet her in her moment of thought. His hands fall to his sides, and he greets her with a charming smile, shaking his head.]

Think nothing of it. [Gesturing to her with an open hand and a tip of his head.] Though permit me to say that regardless of style, there seems hardly a garb that would not suit you.

[There's that lewdness, if you were looking for it.]

[nagyka]

[A chill runs down her spine. What's the expression? Someone walking over your grave? She's not sure exactly what it means, but she thinks she might be beginning to. ]

How charming. [ Her response is as dry and disinterested as her expression, though there is, perhaps, an underlying hint of amusement to it. The corners of her lips twitch just a little upward. ] You are a recent arrival, aren't you?

[ Changing the subject because she's clearly not too comfortable with the direction it's headed. She only likes flirting (was that flirting?) when it's on her terms. ]

[inamorate]

[It was flirting )8 That certainly backfired. Maybe a different approach... He straightens.]

Apparently so, if 'arrival' is a suitable word. This 'Landlord' certainly has unorthodox methods in welcoming his residents. Still, this wouldn't be the first time I've woken in a foreign place with no recollection of how I came to be there. [It's still unnerving that the journal has no recollection of this place at all either.]

[nagyka]

[ He's already friendzoned, it's no use. ]

It rolls off the tongue better than "randomly being kidnapped in the blink of an eye then waking up on an uncomfortable chair", don't you think?

[ She isn't sure if he's joking or implying he drinks? Though perhaps it could be something more serious. She knows all about tricky memory issues. So she lets out a few clipped chuckles, more there because she doesn't know how to reply than anything. ]

If you've any questions, please feel free to ask me. I'm with the Law Enforcement Unit. [ Her eyes widen and she quickly holds a hand out, leaning in to his personal space in an effort to appear more friendly. ] I, ah. I'm Quistis Trepe. I apologize, I should have introduced myself sooner.

[inamorate]

[Somewhere in the metaverse, a black fedora is suddenly windblown, carried by a breeze into oblivion.

And, surprisingly, he isn't talking about drinking! Though she wouldn't know that. His brows raise at her title of an officer of the law, but he seems unabashed. He takes her hand, his free arm crossed over his back and one ankle behind the other with a polite bow of his head. Go big or go home.]

Forgive me, Officer Trepe. My manners have been if not more poorly executed. I am called Ringabel. It was in good fortune that I'd meet a capable woman such as yourself, as I've been searching for my lost troupe of companions since my arrival.
