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.

/stabs you with a knife!!!

... Tsukimi. Tsukimi Kurashita, n-nice to meet you.. [ even if she's horrible with people she doesn't know. ]

But.. you said 'for most people'. For what kind of people wouldn't it be a new experience?
firemaincannon: <user name="patch_robots"> (♠With pride dancing on my tiptoe)

fjhgjdfg WHY?!

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-23 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Same here Kurashita. [Luckily Haruna is great with meeting new people. Or just being loud. Loudly meeting new people.]

Mages, wizards, magister magi, those sorts of people. The magical sort. Plus judging by the people here I wouldn't put it past some world hopping protag to show up.
kurages: (while we're devoting)

why, is there a problem, henry? (´・ω・`)

[personal profile] kurages 2012-04-23 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
... Mages..? [ blinking-- okay, how to break it gently to this person.. ]

But.. those don't exist, right? Only in movies and the like.

[ awkward soft laugh!! what a funny joke from this other girl!! ]
firemaincannon: <user name="patch_robots"> (♠With my magical brush stroke)

oh god no, there's no reasoning with you now

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-23 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh you poor girl. Now normally Haruna wouldn't just blab about magic to people who don't know about it back home, there are weighty consequences when it comes to that. People get turned into ermines over that stuff. Buuut...]

Nope, totally and completely real. Levitating, magical fireballs, transformations, mind reading, everything, the whole shebang. Real.

[Lol she's not back home screw the rules.]
kurages: (she runs like a fire does)

hmm, weren't you going to go flower-watching today? (´・ω・`)

[personal profile] kurages 2012-04-23 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[ RUDE, HARUNA?! Don't dump that all on the poor girl at once, she's just going to freak out here all over again because-- oh god, she's talking to a legitly crazy person!! ]

A-a-- are you sure you're feeling okay..?!
firemaincannon: <user name="patch_robots"> (♠I feel so happy~)

change of plans, i decided to hang out at the police station

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-23 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hey now she's not crazy! She's just an eccentric artist who wants to take over a magical world maybe, that's all!]

As right as rain~

[Man if she had her artifact she could BLOW HER MIIIND. But she doesn't. Dang.]
kurages: (such wonderful things surround you)

oh, thanks for telling me so I won't have to go pay A-ko again.. (´・ω・`)

[personal profile] kurages 2012-04-24 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
[ SHE'S CLEARLY CRAZY. Magic doesn't exist, everyone knows that!! Or maybe she's just a crazy otaku like some of the people in Tsukimi's house, Tsukimi isn't sure which one it is.. ]

Then.. m-maybe you're just a big anime fan, is that it..?
firemaincannon: <user name="patch_robots"> (♠I'm basking it in)

... what? oh that bitch, selling my info

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-24 09:38 am (UTC)(link)
Well I won't deny I'm into manga, anime not so much.

[She can already guess what Tsukimi's thought process is on this whole thing.]

But there's a difference between being deluded between what's real and what's make believe and seeing magic with your own eyes.
kurages: (watch her run with ribbons undone)

I need it to be able to properly love you.. (´・ω・`)

[personal profile] kurages 2012-04-24 10:13 am (UTC)(link)
That's true, but.. I've never met anyone who could really see magic, let alone use it..

[ still awkward. ]

... Since that sort of thing isn't supposed to be real.
firemaincannon: <user name="patch_robots"> (Default)

you can love me even more once you get to the police station.

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-24 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
Hey I was just like you once, didn't have a clue magic existed at all.

[All her friends were jerks and were totally holding out on the whole magic thing. Pfft.]

But once you get over how cliche 'magic' sounds and you make your first pactio it all just becomes the norm. You know, since it's real and all.
kurages: (the fish on the land ain't happy)

isn't that sort of a weird place to have a date? but I don't know much about it, so.. (´・ω・`)

[personal profile] kurages 2012-04-24 10:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ She's still unsure if this person isn't just mentally unstable or something, w e l p. ]

Ah, I see.. [ awkwaaaaard. ] And what would this.. 'pactio' be, then?
firemaincannon: <user name="patch_robots"> (♠I'm still applying the finishing touche)

it's a test to see how much you really care about me!

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-24 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hold onto your hats, it's about to get more awkward.]

A magical contract between two people, bonding them together. With a kiss~! Sounds fun, huh?
kurages: (running through spring)

well, I care about you a lot, denry! i'll do anything for you! (´・ω・`)

[personal profile] kurages 2012-04-25 02:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ .... Kiss.

Kiss.

Kiss.

Insta-petrify. Enjoy having Tsukimi standing there with a shocked expression as if she's completely frozen. ]
firemaincannon: (♠Miracle Show Time)

anything? even turn yourself in? that would be great

[personal profile] firemaincannon 2012-04-25 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kisskisskisskiss~

Now having someone freeze up on her when she mentions kissing is totally new. Getting red and flailing around she can handle. Frozen is new. Newer than new.

Haruna grins and steps over to loop an arm around Tsukimi's shoulders.]


Come on Kurashita, it's just a kiss! Don't go shutting down on me over talking about something like that~!

[Leaning her head a little closer so her mouth is next to Tsukimi's ear now.]

It's just. A. Kiss.
