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!
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!
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...?
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...
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.
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!
"Waterbending," he supplies carefully. "You could say it was a Trojan horse rather than a gift. Situations changed though, and now I would call it a gift."
More explanation than strictly needed. But words are good to cling to when you're nervous. It's even clearer to him now that this man is new. So new Akito wouldn't be surprised if the oxygen from his home still feeding his body.
"You're in the city of Keeliai, on the back of Tu Vishan, who is... Um. Basically he is a very large turtle. The local people are kedan, and they can shapeshift which is disconcerting at first. Their attitudes toward people like us, who have been taken from our homes," - Akito gestures between them with his hands, not out of need but because it makes him more comfortable to be moving - "have improved over the past few months, but are still not very good. I don't know what people are told when they first wake up here anymore, but, um. Whatever piece of jewelry you woke up with on your person, keep it safe."
He fixes his mussed hair with a sigh, straightening fly away strands. "This isn't a dream. There is a chance to go home, but no defined method yet. It's completely random. There is an entrance in each sector to the Midnight Hotel, run by a man named Anton. You can stay there free of charge until you get on your feet. Um... I dunno what else to say right now."
So Akito will just... Sit down casually on his knees, legs splayed out on either side of him. More comfortable than seiza, and easier to rise from than sitting cross-legged.
"The first thing you should do is get clothes that blend in better. And winter is almost over, but it's still cold, so you'll need a warmer jacket..."
Realizing that no, this man is not suitably dressed for the cold, Akito unwraps his scarf and hands it over to him to use. It's not cold enough for frostbite right now - not after the guy's body was heated with adrenaline - but he'll likely be feeling it soon.
"I don't have any runs until later tonight so I can buy you an outfit that won't get you beat up. You'll just have to pay me back sometime."
