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!

A stampede was impossible to miss on what had been an overall quiet survey of the city. Hearing it coming a mile away wasn't the hard part, neither was weaving through the fleeing through the masses towards the herd. The teenager running next to Obi-Wan was safely replaced by one Anakin Skywalker, who was facing a harder trial than his friend.

"Why am I not surprised to find you at the heart of this." Not a question. An excellent thing that he was here to pull him out of yet another fire.

"A right up ahead." Said as he joined Obi-Wan in clearing out innocent bystanders. "There's a clearing we can use to circle the herd in on itself."

That difficulty Anakin was facing? Trying so hard to not smile at Obi-Wan as he spoke.

Hearing a familiar voice to his side, Obi-Wan glanced over and then did a double-take.

"Anakin?!" He said in surprise while not ceasing in his run.

To say this was startling was an underestatement considering the last time he'd seen his former apprentice... Well it hadn't been pretty. But Anakin was very much there and still had two legs, running beside him. He heard how this place brought people from different times. So for now, especially considering the circumstances, he just went with the flow.

"Right... Of course."

And took a right he did, running the length of the alley until they came upon the clearing, breaking away from Anakin to run around the perimeter to the left. The Kirin herd following behind him.

He merely gave a patronizing look laced with amusement at the surprised exclamation. Maybe the new world left him out of sorts. Luckily, Anakin saw this a good opportunity to get them both back on track to their main objective: rescue the chancellor, and take down Dooku along with Grievous if at all possible.

"Run them into a tight circle, then they'll have to stop." Seeing his former master keeping ahead of them wasn't the sight he was expecting to see today, but there was no way he'd ever forget this one.

Anakin kept to the side, making sure no strays broke away to cause more chaos and mess up their plan.

"I hope they don't charge you for all of them. The council will want to speak to you privately over the amount I'd wager."
hadthehighground: (Oh my)

"Me? This was hardly my fault!"

Meanwhile Obi-Wan just kept running, leading the herd in a circle about the clearing until they reached the point where they had come from. With a quick wave of his hand, several crates tumbled into the mouth of the alley, effectively blocking off the route.

With that done, the Jedi Master leaped to safety upon the crates. The kirin now neatly corraled as the beasts circled in on themselves and finally stopped their mad flight.

The stampede dying into a exhausted meandering meant Anakin could use the Force much more readily, less interference. The first use was to further pacify one of the kirin so he could mount one, the other was to try and feel out if Obi-Wan was still..shook up? It was hard for him to pin what exactly that was even with the Force on his side.

"The only other Jedi on this shelled creature?" He grinned. "There's no such thing as coincidences, Master." But he could believe the Force had a hand in it, and he still had the habit of occasionally using Obi-Wan's former title.

"I've tried contacting the council and locating Artoo." He shook his head as he guided the kirin toward the crate blockade. "We're on our own for this one." The usual. Find a starship, report, and fly back.
hadthehighground: (Thought provoking)

Please say you're going to app.

Shook up was putting it mildly, but as the animals calmed, Obi-Wan remembered himself and used the Force to conceal his feelings. It would not do well to make this situation any worse than it already was.

Jumping down from the crates, he looked over the creatures and then to his former Padawan.

"I'm afraid we won't find any starships here. We may be stuck on this planet for some time."

I wish I could, your Obi-Wan is presh

"It does look primitive enough, but I think this city has more to offer than what's in their market." Bound and determined to believe there's some kind of transport. "That is if we don't get 'rescued' sooner." But he wasn't too fond of being in someone's debt. Not if there was a way to solve the problem himself,

and with help from his frequent partner.

"Perhaps whoever is in charge might be willing to help us. From what I've pieced together the jedi aren't too well known here. That may work in our favor." A well placed mind trick perhaps.
hadthehighground: (Listening)

Aw too bad. But thank you! <3

"The situation is more complicated than you realize, Anakin."

Much. MUCH more complicated.

"I've spoken with a few who are stranded here like us. We are no longer even in our own galaxy. People have been brought here from many different worlds, ones I've never heard of, and even... different times."

It boggled the mind really, but he had found no reason to disbelieve what they've been saying.
