Test Drive Meme | #35


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 starts out as wishful thinking becomes lured into reality. That slick new motorcycle or pile of kingly treasure you were just daydreaming about? Surprise! It's just appeared in front of you. Though, it may only stay for a short while before it disappears 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. Maybe you haven't been hired by them at all, but are using their name for your own goals... as long as no one discovers the lie!

  5. Wait... you want my what now?!
    The kedan are a curious folk, and the Foreigners are entertainment in conveniently arriving packages, especially when they come along with unique items that the kedan might not have seen before. Maybe it's your cellphone... or maybe it's your knickers! How badly do you want to keep your stuff from some overeager native shapeshifters who want to buy, bribe, or burglarize it right off your person?

  6. Sea prunes, get your sea prunes right here!
    Life in Keeliai can take a little getting used to: the chickens have scales, the cows have feathers, and the fruits come in more colour and pattern combinations than your average tye-dye shirt. Not to mention that meal you just ordered from the food vendor? Has arrived on the plate, and you're pretty sure you just saw it move.

  7. Everybody needs a little darkness...
    The Great Enemy may have been defeated over two years ago, and people are even willing to speak Malicant's name aloud now, but there remains a taint in the city never fully purged. Those who consider Malicant a dark god whose end was unjust are the cultists of Keeliai, and they aren't always so easy to identify as one might think. Sometimes their presence is felt in the growing urge to give into one's darker instincts, especially in such a foreign place...

  8. Illicit substances, anyone?
    Every city has its vices, and Keeliai is no different. Perhaps you actively sought it out, or perhaps an opportunistic dealer saw you as a potential customer needing a free sample, but you're now in possession of a packet of Lucid, an emotion-enhancing drug. Interested in finding out what happens when you crush that colourful crystal and ingest it?

  9. Incoming!
    Tu Vishan's latest landfall stop has brought an unwelcome problem to its residents: enormous, toothy creatures who look more like pterosaurs than most people are comfortable with! With a twenty-foot wingspan, these aren't exactly harmless local wildlife, and they have a nasty habit of swooping down on targets both Foreigner and kedan! How are you going to fend them off, or help someone who might have been injured by the latest dive bombing??

  10. 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? Anything goes!

[Rho was small, even as Miqo'te went, and possessed of surprising agility. That wasn't enough to save him from a cybernetically enhanced superhyur though.

He tried to make a dodge of it, but Junior grabbed him fast and yanked him back mid-stride.]


[Rho did what any self-respecting arcanist would do.]

[He threw the Carbuncle in Junior's face]




[There are many Eorzeans who are baffled by how such a tiny creature can act as so effective a distraction in battle. To that, Arcanists often respond 'Well how would you like to have a small, fercoious animal crawling up and down your trousers, mauling every thing it can get its teeth and claws on?']
androit: (✻ Been there‚ done that)

[personal profile] androit 2016-01-19 09:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ The toss of the glowing rat squirrel thing is certainly a good distraction and he lets go of the collar, but unfortunately for A'rho, Junior is possessed of a very good set of involuntary reflexes. He brings his arm up to shield his face and swipes it away rather powerfully before he makes another grab. ]

Just give it back! My creampuffs are good, but not worth all this!
miraculous_magery: (What!!!!)

[personal profile] miraculous_magery 2016-01-19 09:35 am (UTC)(link)
[The topaz Carbuncle is knocked away quite easily, but it bounces back with a squeak that was feared by vilekin all over Eorzea (though particularly terrifying to the cockroaches in Ran and Rho's old flat). It launched itself back at Junior with the fury of a thousand suns (or at least that of a particularly rabid badger) while Rho thrashed and made a commotion.]

Help! Help! This Hyur is trying to rob me!
androit: (✻ No chance‚ no way)

[personal profile] androit 2016-01-19 09:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ It helps that they only went further into an alley than out into the streets, but before long someone is going to notice and investigate. He holds onto A'rho's collar, but pushes him along the wall and flips him so they can face each other.

Then that stupid rat keeps coming back... He tries something a bit risky, switching his grip enough to turn and fend the carbuncle off until he's got it by the base of its tail and dangling away from him. MAYBE TIME FOR SOME PEACE? MAYBE? ]


First of all, calm down! Shush!

[ Why isn't Felix here? He'd just deck this guy and get it over with. Junior's just too soft. ]

You can't just take peoples' shit like this and expect to get away with it! What do you think is going to happen if we go back to the shop with your would-be savior and ask everyone what happened?
miraculous_magery: ("Lasers")

[personal profile] miraculous_magery 2016-01-19 09:50 am (UTC)(link)
They would think I'm an adorable rascal and pat my incredibly fluffy ears.

[It had gotten him out of trouble in the past - to most he looked a lot younger than he was, and if Ran was here, they could play up the starving brothers act. Alas, Ran wasn't here, and his attire was a little too nouveau riche for that act.]

Anyroad, you'll probably want to let me go. I get gassy when I'm nervous.
androit: (✻ This scene won't play)

[personal profile] androit 2016-01-19 09:53 am (UTC)(link)
That seems incredibly presumptuous of them.

[ Call him strange, but if he had ears like that, he'd still have a personal bubble. Probably. Maybe? Whatever. ]

I'll let you go once you give me that food back. Not only did you steal it, you took it from someone who already paid. That's like, double-thievery.
miraculous_magery: (Pastel Power)

[personal profile] miraculous_magery 2016-01-19 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Little brother, a double-thief! Ran would be so proud.]

Alright, alright.

[He made to hand back the bag.]

[And then there was a burst of a noxious cloud as he unleashed the second tier Miasma spell]
androit: (✻ Baby‚ we're not buying)

[personal profile] androit 2016-01-19 09:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ Unfortunately, Junior only has two hands. He cautiously lets go of A'rho's collar in order to reach for the bag... and then that magic spell explodes and he stumbles back in shock and sudden, acrid pain in his veins. ]

What the... what did you do?!
miraculous_magery: (Adventure awaits!)

[personal profile] miraculous_magery 2016-01-19 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
You'll be fine in a bit!

[He calls over his shoulder as he and the carbuncle make a proper run for it.]
androit: (✻ This scene won't play)

[personal profile] androit 2016-01-19 10:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ Unfortunately, Junior isn't used to feeling sick at all so it leaves him unbalanced to a fairly special degree. The guy isn't lying, however, and it leaves his system sooner rather than later. ]

Dammit... magic is definitely cheating.
miraculous_magery: (A Masterpiece by Senpai)

[personal profile] miraculous_magery 2016-01-19 10:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Rho could probably be found later either munching triumphantly on his prize in the market or lazing in a tree, happily digesting, in case Junior wants to get payback.]
androit: (✻ You can't conceal it)

[personal profile] androit 2016-01-19 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ When Junior gets back to the bakery, the owner is pretty annoyed. Not mad, but annoyed enough to send him home for now. There's enough bread in the oven for the day and obviously Junior needs time to think about just running off after every little petty theft that happens.

It's aggravating, but Junior sees the point. He's on his way out when he catches sight of exactly the person he doesn't want to see. Stands under the tree, looking up disapprovingly. That height thing just comes so in handy. ]


Happy with yourself?
miraculous_magery: (Having a huff)

[personal profile] miraculous_magery 2016-01-19 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rho jolted out of his happy reverie, and quickly yanked his tail out of reach.]

Oh, it's you again!

[He peered down from his perch, just a little bit cocky because he had the high ground.]

What do you want? Are you stalking me now?
androit: (✻ You can't conceal it)

[personal profile] androit 2016-01-19 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Junior just looks irritated. That tail was definitely two steps away from getting tugged on. ]

Apparently it's fate I find you again. [ Sarcasm. ] Seriously, don't you feel even the slightest bit bad?
