Test Drive Meme | January 2015


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!
    → Maybe even RESERVE so you CAN live on 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. 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 turtle shell!

  2. Dramatic Chase Sequence!
    You're running away from something! It could be anything, from a rampaging kirin to a gaggle of overly enthusiastic children! One way or another, you can't stop, and much like a katamari ball, you feel obligated to grab everyone in your path along the way to keep them out of danger! Or perhaps you're more the sort to try and knock them into it as a distraction...?

  3. Where There's A Will, There's A...?
    The Life and Dreaming Planes have been merged, and sometimes what start out as wishful thinking becomes lured into reality. That slick new motorcycle or pile of kingly treasure you were just daydreaming about? Surprise! Though it may only stay for a short while before it disppears again, so make it count. Hopefully you're not the type to daydream about terrible things befalling people you don't like...

  4. SECRET UNDERCOVER MODE ACTIVATE!
    The three major kedan families all have their own agendas, and you've chosen to entangle yourselves with one (or more!) of them. Are you hoping to shift the balance of power? Gain some favours? Perhaps you're on a mission to bring a criminal to justice, or maybe you just want to get the cream of the crop from the black market.

  5. 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!

[And that's one way to get noticed in a crowd - stopping and taking yourself out of it. Jo draws alongside the weird-looking guy and says, quite casually,] So you don't seem happy.
merb: (✈ do i have to touch it)

[ The merb jumps a little, making a high-toned noise of startlement at being addressed. It takes him a moment to answer, his gaze shifting rapidly back and forth between Jo and the crowd before finally muttering: ]

There's more people in this marketplace than on most terras. It's enough to make anyone unhappy. Do you have any idea how many germs get collected in high-density places like this?

[Jo snickers a little bit, at least having the grace to hide it behind her hand. This guy's jumpier than Grimshaw sixteen Red Bulls in.]

This is about normal for me, [she says. She likes crowds. They feel like home, sort of.] And don't worry, I don't think anyone here has anything contagious. [Certainly nothing that would cut a swath through the crowd like the 2016 superflu. Yikes. She opts not to share that.]
merb: (✈ might want to check that out)

[personal profile] merb 2015-02-14 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Don't be so sure. [ he feels obligated to warn her ]

These conditions are ripe for Sjurd Fever, where everything you try eating turns to ash in your mouth. You waste away to nothing. It's a slow, agonizing end.

[ The last sentence is accompanied by some involuntary eye twitching, though Stork either doesn't notice or doesn't care. ]

[My God, you are an interesting little fellow, aren't you?]

Well that's something I'd like to try to avoid. So tell me, what do I need to do to avoid...Sjurd Fever?
merb: (✈ he solved the mystery the end)

[ Stork immediately begins ticking things off on his fingers -- he's only got four digits, but he's slimming the symptoms down to most aggressive ones -- and seems pleased that she's taking the precautions seriously. ]

One, don't go anywhere near a Saberfanged Grimjaw, they're prime carriers. Two, don't inhale any strange powers, especially ones that are pink or yellow. Three, Rozastul pollen isn't in season here, to that probably won't be an issue. And four, if you feel any tingling in your lower spine, you'll need to have an exploratory spinal stenosis done.
