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!

[The sudden appearance of a young woman in front of him has him reaching for his gun on instinct - but he stops himself when he realizes just how young she is, sees the way she carries herself, the look on her face.

She's playing. God help him, this projection is playing with him.]

Don't - shh. [He can't handle kids, he's always awkward with Cobb's, even though she's much older than Phillipa.] Be quiet, okay?

[problematical]

[ River giggles because it's just a game, a game of hide and seek and he doesn't have to look so serious. Beckons him inside the shop, flicking the curtain back and forth like peekaboo. ]

Can't play if you don't smile, silly.

[Arthur sighs, wondering if this is the best idea - he should just get away, find someplace to hide from the guys after him without a noisy, grinning teenage girl hanging around.

But damn, she looks like she needs some supervision, so Arthur follows her.]

What's your name?

[problematical]

[ She does a little hop-skip, black combat boots that don't match her red dress just lightly scuffing the floor. Leading Arthur deeper into the shop, while outside his pursuers are milling about with frustration trying to find where he went. ]

River. What's yours?
