test drive meme deux


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! 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! IN GAME MEMBERS CAN PARTICIPATE IN TAGGING AS WELL!!

YOUR OPTIONS


THE HOUSING GATE. Somehow, some way, some idiot has just run into your yard with their car. Or maybe you're the idiot behind the wheel? Did you wreck a mailbox? Maybe even, dare I say, run into someone? Stranger things have happened.


THE SHOPPING GATE. For some reason the damned cashier NPC isn't anywhere in sight and you've got...well, whatever it is you've decided to buy. There's a line forming filled with people. No matter where you are, the register, the middle, or at the very end, you're surrounded by some pretty frustrated people.


THE PLEASURE GATE. You happen to have wandered into one of the more...adult establishments. You might perhaps be underage and if so you need not be there at all. No one is going to cart you off, though. Maybe you enjoy your strip club/bar/peep show or maybe it's completely repulsive to you. Do you stick around or make a run for it?


THE ALUMNI GATE. It's come time for the school festival! There are various booths, stands, activities, and all sorts of people milling about! What grade are you in? School? Are you sociable or withdrawn? Are you in charge of something? Crashing a party? You're full of youth and the world is yours for the taking!


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.

[ She frowns. There's a long pause before she pulls the pen and paper out of her pockets and starts writing.

"Everything's overpriced."

It could be taken as a neutral statement of fact, if one were to disregard how fast she wrote it and how forcefully she dotted her i's and that period. ]

[ ... Oh. Overpriced? Hanako didn't see any issue with this store ever since she started coming here, so she's confused for a moment.

But if Shizune is so unhappy with this, then it means an issue with it exists. So, after thinking twice- she writes something again.

"What were you buying?" ]

[ "Nothing."

Not when everything costs this much was what she wanted to follow up with but she writes this instead:

"I was merely doing a survey for future purposes."

i.e. a school festival. ]

[ ... well, that doesn't help things, but Hanako shows the paper to the shopkeeper. She's by no means good with words, but she could at least try to reach a compromise between the two of them. With some hesitation, she starts negotiating with the guy, hoping to get him to at least have a little discount. It's most likely destined to fail, but what else can she do? ]

...!

[ Too slow! Hanako's taking too long!

Shizune pulls a notepad from her pocket and starts scribbling a few prices. She pulls those pages off the pad and starts laying them on the shopkeeper's counter.

"If we buy 50 toys in one go, different animals and colors, for example:"]


...

[ "2 purple cats
7 red dogs
5 pink rabbits
5 orange chicks"
]


...

["Ikezawa, which one would you like?"]

[ ... What does that have anything to do with the matter at hand? Hanako had to stop negotiating when Shizune started writing, and when she reads the content in the notebook, she blinks rapidly.

Regardless, it must be a big deal for the other girl- so she retrieves the paper and scribbles quickly below the stuff she'd already written.

"The pink rabbits...?" ]

[ She nods before pushing her glasses up. She grins mischievously.

"Then there shall only be one pink rabbit. The rest of them shall be in another color. Mint, maybe.

We shall be purchasing at least 50 toys in the future and it should only cost this much."

Shizune writes down her price and waits for an objection from the shopkeeper and possibly Hanako. ]
