TEST DRIVE MEME - TU SHANSHU EDITION!

Itching to try out writing a character? Then rev up your engines, grab your accounts, and slam your way into this meme! Here is a venue for you to try out whatever character there might be tickling your fancy, from fandom to OC, for as few as one and as many as MANY. Seriously, there's no limit.

How do you partake in this fantastic congregation of character testing? Why, by following these simple steps:

Comment with the journal of a character you want to test; put their name and canon in the subject line for added sparkles.
Tag around with everyone!
Profit like you live on a the back of a turtle!

But wait, there's more! For the low, low price of $9,999.99, you can even use one of our handy prompts when you tag someone. You could even pick one with a Random Number Generator to help decide which prompt to go with!

A Chance Meeting at the Turtle's Head.
Remember, being here causes a great sense of-- well, shall we say inner peace.
Haggling Over Something in the Marketplace!
Maybe someone else saw the exact same shiny thing you did at the exact same moment! However shall this be resolved? Remember: blood is extremely hard to scrub off of turtleshell!
Hey, I Just Met You, and This is Crazy...
First impressions are always the most important, right?
WILDCARD!
Go nuts. Suddenly your character is fighting dragons! Good God, they've found the Millennium Falcon drifting in the ocean! Do you really feel the need to polish every paving stone in the Earth Sector? Please note, Wildcard options are also what you can choose to do if you aren't yet comfortable in the Tu Shanshu setting and would prefer a more 'dear-mun' esque experience. Please specify in your post!

The first comment/thread on this test drive is going to be titled ENABLE ME and it's where you post character accounts/muselists, etc and others (members, passerbys, shoulder demons) can enable you to apply to Tu Shanshu! Come, let us enable you to the turtletastic madness!

[so, the man ahead of you ordering at the cafe might be a bit peculiar... is that a sword he's carrying?]

No, I'm just going to have a coffee.

[as he reaches to take his change and turns, nearly running into you, you might notice that he's definitely not (fully) human]

Excuse me.

[Then again, the number of 'fully human' people around here isn't all that great, is it. The 13-year-old girl looks up at him with one eyebrow raised, even as she steps back.]

[... then again, just in case.]

Are you all right?

[Because that appearance could be all right... or not. She doesn't know.]

[it's not all right, but it's a long term thing, sadly]

Yeah. Just didn't want to spill coffee on someone.

[watching you warily for signs of fear or general freaking out]

[Awsnap.]

[Claire shrugs, smiling a bit.]

Don't worry, I've had worse spilled on me in the cafeteria. Some of it even on accident.

[You get less freaking out after your mother was possessed by a demon, your father by an angel, and... well. You got the angel too, for a while.]

Considering it's hot...

Or it should be hot. [going to suspiciously eye the coffee]

[Oh.

Wow this is. Awkward.

Well, he can't just avoid this like he didn't steal her father's meatsuit, so might as well suck it up and head over to take it like a man. It's nice to see her alive and with a functional brain and attached limbs and the like, anyway.]

Claire Novak.

[For a moment, after she sees him, she perks up and brightens...]

[Then realizes it's not her dad even before he speaks. And. That is how things were supposed to be, right? But she can't help but be disappointed.]

Castiel.

[... okay. So maybe not all morose. If he's there, her dad is (she thinks...) still in there somewhere, right? Even if he promised Castiel forever.]

Yes.

[Sorry kiddo. Castiel hasn't exactly been careful with this body.]

...have you been well? [That's how you do small talk, right? With all those halting, unsure pauses?]

[HDU!]

[Claire's mouth twists a bit, just for a moment.]

It hasn't been all that long, for me. I've been - coming to terms, I think.

[Sloooooowly. But she's not angry at Castiel, at least?]

[It's kind of hard to pretend being human with a person who was formally his vessel, even if it was only for a couple minutes.]

With my possession of your father.

[...okay well don't sugarcoat it or anything, dude.]

[Jeez, how many kids are being brought here? Kyle's about to haggle for some chocolate but on second thought, he simply lets her have it.] Hey. You're new?

[Shh, this is weird but she's still not panicking.]

Yes.

[She manages a small smile.]

You aren't?

I've been around a while, yeah. [He bites his lip.] You have any family here?

[Well. That is... an odd question. Actually, an odd question that strikes a little too close to home. Her eyes widen, then turn away from him.]

Sort of.

Did.. I say something wrong? [He moves where she can see him, and smiles at her, trying to put her at ease.]

Not... wrong, exactly. It's just complicated.

Is someone looking out for you, or no?
