tdm + em; we're doing this now

TEST DRIVE MEME



HOW IT WORKS:

► 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.

copypasta as per usual

ENABLE MEME

There are multiple ways to use this post:

• PLAYERS IN GAME: post who you'd like to play next round or who you're unsure of playing, and then let other people auction your soul off at an affordable price gently push you into the direction of actually apping them come the new app cycle (concrete details later on that).
• OR YOU COULD: Ask for castmates, be you in a cast or a lone canon warrior. Think of it like a kind of in game ATP ad.
• IF YOU DON'T EVEN GO HERE: You might want to? If you do, feel free to post with your account, a picture, whatever you want and let us take you under our wing so you can be a part of our large, rowdy family.
  
  So let the fun begin!

No.

[Somebody's a terrible liar, and lying to a senior, too. Furuya busies himself with getting a bag for his totally not hardball-sized orange and a couple of others, because who buys just one orange? Or takes, anyway, the buying is a non-issue.]

When did you get here, senpai?

Re: wibbles at

[sidewind]

[uh huh. sure. nori folds his arms, not so much bothered as still just confused as to what could possibly be gained from pitching an orange, let alone while still in the poor orange's place of origin.

but he's being asked a question, so he can table his confusion for now.]

Really recently... um, I feel like I'm having trouble keeping track of time, though.

[staminaroll]

[Miyuki-senpai's put him on limited pitching until the weather cools down, but maybe that only applies to actual hardballs. At least, that is Furuya's line of thinking. Also, he wasn't expecting to get caught by someone from Seido.

Nori-senpai's answer makes him tilt his head, though.]

There's a calendar in your phone.

[sidewind]

Oh--

[heat blooms in his cheeks, quick as always-- such an obvious solution and it hadn't even occurred to him.]

I... hadn't thought of that. [he does try a small smile, though, a little embarrassed.] Thanks for the tip?

[staminaroll]

[Oh no. He didn't mean to embarrass him. Furuya blinks a couple of times and looks down.]

I haven't been here very long either so it's a lot to learn. It gets easier, though.

[It also helps that Furuya's not the most attentive to begin with, but Nori-senpai won't have that problem.]

[sidewind]

[true, it's not so much that nori's inattentive, but more that he's just... easily overwhelmed. as evinced by how easy it is to embarrass or fluster him.]

I'd guess it has to, right...? I feel like I'm not taking it very well, though, it's so much?

[staminaroll]

[He lifts his head again, regarding Nori-senpai curiously. He doesn't want to look like he's offering advice to a senior, but senpai does seem to be asking.]

It is a lot at first. Have you talked to your family much? Mine were really kind and helpful. There's Miyuki-senpai, too...

[sidewind]

[he shakes his head, casting his gaze down.]

No... I haven't talked to my family a lot, I've been avoiding it, I guess. It feels weird, still. But that's my own fault.

[it's a point of insecurity, actually, and true to form he dodges when he feels uncomfortable or incapable of succeeding or adapting.]

[staminaroll]

[Furuya just watches his senior for a long moment before nodding.]

I miss my real parents but the people here... They're like Takashima-san.

[He can only hope his meaning is clear because his feelings really aren't. He likes Veronica-san and Takasu but they're adults with authority over him away from home. They're helpful and kind but they're not his parents.]

[sidewind]

[it's always a little hard for him to understand Furuya's full meanings, but this is a comparison that's easy to grasp, and he nods slowly, figuring that he gets it.]

Yeah, they are. I don't know how to feel about them being called family right off the bat.

[staminaroll]

[Miyuki's really the only one who can usually get all of what Furuya's trying to say, but he's trying to improve his communication. This... is not his best effort.]

That's probably all right. They can still help if you want, or... I can try.

[Nori-senpai needs his support. Furuya can do that, considering how many times Nori-senpai has supported him in the past.]

[sidewind]

[all part of being on a team, right? it feels a little strange, to hear an offer like that from a kouhai, but honestly, what choice does he really have, since he's shirked most of the other options?]

I should try to be a little more open with them... but it's easier to accept help from somebody who already knows you a little. Um-- thank you, for offering.

[staminaroll]

[O-oh. Furuya looks surprised when Nori-senpai thanks him. That's not what he expected at all. He nods, though.]

Of course. This place is.... different. We need to work together.
