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:

1. Comment with the journal of a character you want to test; put their name and canon in the subject line for added sparkles.
2. Tag around with everyone!
3. 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!

1. A Chance Meeting at the Turtle's Head.
   Remember, being here causes a great sense of-- well, shall we say inner peace.
2. 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!
3. Hey, I Just Met You, and This is Crazy...
   First impressions are always the most important, right?
4. 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!

[ Smaug is subtle in how he rouses himself awake for all his ferocious size. That he is up and alert is only hinted by the sound of his rumbling snores petering off into an eerie silence. It is a gravely quiet few moments until his great head lifts up almost into the branches

One luminescent amber eye roves the glade for any physical sign of intrusion. ]

I do not smell you but I hear your frightened little heart and feel your breath. Well? If you have come to play thief you will only find disappointment.

[Sabriel freezes with terror, but even as her teeth chatter in terror, one thought forces itself out.]

I am no thief.

I hate phone tags.

That you are neither a liar will surely be your next words. Come, come! I know you are near and will wager you don't wish to see if my fires will find you faster than your legs can carry you.

Show yourself now that you find me in a tolerant mood.

[A flare of Charter light announces Sabriel's presence as she steps forward, Ranna hastily stuffed back in her bandolier as she raises one hand to her forehead in greeting.]

I mean you no harm.
