test drive meme


Want to app, or maybe you've already got one written up? Maybe you want to try before you buy? This is the meme for that, in the official pre-opening test drive meme! Of course, it's unfair to throw you into a sea without some life vest, so some prompts for possible situations have been given to you, and are as follows. These can all be in either log style, text, voice, or video; it's up to you!

YOUR OPTIONS


THE HOUSING GATE. While your new home is extremely lovely with a well stocked fridge and french doors and a carpet you could probably sleep comfortably on, especially if you're married and don't want to deal with awkward bed sharing, it's nice to go out every once in a while and explore the area. You do have a new car you know. Maybe you're a kid, joy riding, or taking you family on a little trip through the rows of houses that all look suspiciously alike. Or, perhaps, you've brought a friend along on a trip to somewhere else (you are running out of that low-fat butter you bought recently), maybe it's even a hitch-hiker! The possibilities are endless, but one thing is certain no matter the scenario: you're going to be stuck in this car for a while.


THE SHOPPING GATE. You're at work. Yeah, you've got a job now, working the 9 to 5, making money to buy that expensive food you like so much. Where do you work? Who are you working with? Do you like your boss? The answers to those questions are up to you. You should really pay attention to that customer coming up to you though. Since that is what you're getting paid for and all.


THE PLEASURE GATE. There's a show going on, although as you watch, the NPCs performing it really aren't up to snuff. Their choppy legwork and monotonous musical numbers leave much to be desired. It's really quite boring to see La Favola d'Orfeo so brutally murdered by untalented, robotic, minions such as these. Maybe texting is in order. Maybe walking out and leaving, catching another show or taking a stroll is in order? They really ought to hire different people to put these things on.


THE ALUMNI GATE. That obnoxious ringing alerts you that school has started yet again. Why do they make you come to this place when all the stupid teachers do is yammer about random things that no one really cares about. Since when did the economy really matter, anyway? Are you going to sit here and take this? Or walk around the school? The boring lady up front isn't really going to notice. Maybe you should go to lunch or chat up some school chums? Your youth isn't going to last forever, you know.


WHATEVER YOU WANT, BRO. Use your imagination and get creative on your own terms! This doesn't count as being in game completely, so feel free to take some liberties with events that could have happened, people you could have met! Just remember to stick to game structure and the rules.

[It honestly doesn't matter where or when she is, but there is one young middle school girl, who could honestly pass for a high schooler strutting her stuff.

Don't bother her, since she is well known around town as the "Ice Queen".]

[Now being known for something like the 'Ice Queen' is just begging for some to come along and...

Break the ice.]


Hi there, I'm Haruna! Don't think I've seen you around in class before.

[You look high schoolish so she's curious why she hasn't seen you.]

[personal profile] phoning 2012-04-25 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
That's probably because I'm not in your class.

[She's being blunt about this, especially since she's the type of girl to not care.]

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-25 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
That's possible. But I haven't seen you around the high school at all now that I think about it! You one of those 'keep to yourself, shut in' types?

[Edging a little closer just to be all buddy-buddy like.]

[personal profile] phoning 2012-04-26 02:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Not necessarily.

[She'll take a step back though, feeling slightly uncomfortable about her personal space.]

I have, however, been going to school.

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-27 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
So you're not a shut in, you go to school and yet I haven't seen you. I've gotta say, you've got a knack for working up a mystery persona.

[What is personal space anyway. Haruna stops and stays where she is for now, if the girl wants her space then she doesn't want to scare her off.]

How about a name to go with the mystery girl thing you have going on?

[ Ice Queen meets Queen Bee.

Sheryl is a little lost because she isn't very familiar with the school yet. She hates having to admit that she was lost but she had no choice.

She steps in front of Yukina and taps her shoulder to get her attention. ]


You. Is your next class [ Insert subject here ]?

more people who know it! \o/

[personal profile] phoning 2012-04-26 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Why are you asking?

[She'll give her usual cold glare, putting her phone back in her pocket.]
the_galaxyfairy: (⋆✪⋆ be my boyfriend)

[personal profile] the_galaxyfairy 2012-04-26 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I am looking for it.

[ Returning the cold glare. She is not used to being glared at. ]
