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.

[Eater doesn't really watch shows like this anyway, they're not his type of thing, but...]

Boo!

[This is just sad.]

[Asahina is literally inspecting everything. She doesn't trust this place and totally expects Monobear to pop out at any moment so she's gonna find him first!]

Florina | Fire Emblem 7

[personal profile] shy_flier 2012-04-23 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
[ So shy.

So unlikely to be the one approaching anyone.

Also afraid of men, cover your ears if you get too close dudes. ]

4!!

[personal profile] purepain 2012-04-23 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yayoi happens to be standing, rather lackadaisically, in the courtyard. She felt a bit awkward, holding her bento and briefcase, while the others sifted through the doors with lunchboxes and bookbags. This school system was weird..

Save her Mika!! ]
harpbeat: (♂ Pleased)

Eeee Florina~

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[It's evening. Eater certainly looks feminine enough.]

Yo. New here?
harpbeat: (♀ Worried)

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
...I don't believe there to be anything in my yard worthy of note.
harpbeat: (♀ Friendly)

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
May I help you?

[This is her living room. There's a harp in one of the corners.]

harpbeat: (♀ Squee)

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Handsome man spotted. And a mechanic! How handy~]

Excuse me, sir~ Could I have a moment of your time?

[ talk about this being the only place to get a good drink in peace, which was lacking if only because of the bad entertainment, not that he knew much about dancing anyway. you can probably catch him peering into what is probably his third or fourth drink, back to the stage, ignoring everything. feel free to text him or interrupt him. ]

[personal profile] donuts5ever 2012-04-23 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, sorry! He kind of pops up at random so I keep on hoping that I'll do something that he feels the need to comment on.

Ugh, just thinking about it makes me want to puke. I really hate that guy!
harpbeat: (♀)

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'm afraid I don't know who you refer to.

It's this guy that I know. I'm sure he's responsible for all of this, I just know it!

Have you seen a bear? Not like a real bear, more like a stuffed animal. Black on one side, White on the other, and red eyes. He's always got that stupid theme music when he pops up too so he's impossible to miss.
ridethelightning: (Lost in thought)

Ky Kiske | Guilty Gear | 1

[personal profile] ridethelightning 2012-04-23 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Ky's in church. Is he part of a prayer group? Running a fundraiser? Teaching a theology lesson? Your call!]
wanders: (it's all over...)

Ryoga Hibiki | Ranma ½ | 5? I think.

[personal profile] wanders 2012-04-23 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Ryoga has written a letter. It's a letter that has to reach elsewhere as SOON AS POSSIBLE and even though he's not entirely sure if it'll reach it's destination, he has to try, right?

Except, he's been out since early this morning, and STILL hasn't found the post office in town. He finally sits on a curb, looking dejected and disappointed about this.]


It feels as if I haven't even moved from in front of my house...

[Not!Parents? Here's a surprise for you: Ryoga in fact has sat right in front of his house, but has no idea because seriously, they all look alike. Anyone else? Feel free to bother him.]
harpbeat: (♂)

Hello Norr. /secretively secret person - okay no it's Mini

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
this is even more lame than the last play they put on here
i hope something gets set on fire soon
harpbeat: (♀ Friendly)

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
No, I'm afraid I don't know any animated stuffed animals of any sort.

[personal profile] donuts5ever 2012-04-23 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Boy it's a good thing that Asahina is like the exact opposite of that.]

Hey, is everything alright over there?
harpbeat: (♀ Friendly)

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
[Theology lesson!]

...but how do you know it works that way?
surefeelsbad: (I asked for the night vision.)

[personal profile] surefeelsbad 2012-04-23 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Look Asahina, it's bad enough that Heloise doesn't have any guns or anything from home. So now she has to confront this girl without them? Ugh. She's stepping out onto the yard, disdain clear on her face.]

Can I help you? [translation: can I help you OFF of my lawn?]
donuts5ever: (Default)

[personal profile] donuts5ever 2012-04-23 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm but I'm sure I didn't end up here randomly... Man, I hate being jerked around like this.

Ah, sorry, this must all sound like nonsense to you!
donuts5ever: (pic#3152089)

[personal profile] donuts5ever 2012-04-23 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, I'm glad people here are so nice! Yes, you can!

[GJ HELOISE an Asahina is now approaching.]
harpbeat: (♀ Cute)

[personal profile] harpbeat 2012-04-23 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Not at all! As a minstrel, it's my duty and my joy to hear of strange tales.
