Test Drive Meme | #36


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!

[Kevas whirls around, only noticing the man the moment he speaks. What the hell is this? He's the one that sneaks up on people not the other way around.]

Where da hell did ya come from?

[He hurriedly tries to hide the sudden look of surprise by shooting the shirtless man a slightly annoyed scowl.]

And who be givin' ya permission to board my boat?
ofapromise: (now hang on a second)

[personal profile] ofapromise 2016-02-13 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
What are you talking about? I've been here the whole time.

[Gosh, didn't you even notice, Kevas? He was right there after all. Well, maybe a rooftop over. Maybe not.]

You're hurting my feelings.

[His tone is light and it, along with his expression, are a little overdone. Zaveid slaps a hand to his chest in mock heartache.]
drinkuntilidie: (Oh so clever)

[personal profile] drinkuntilidie 2016-02-13 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Kevas cocks an eyebrow at Zaveid and crosses his arms.]

What can I say. I just be a heart breaker.

[Normally Kevas would enjoy banter like this a lot more. He's just not used to people sneaking up on him.]

And my idea of a dream boat ain't be comin' with shirtless mons on it. Unless dey be me.
Edited (wow sure did kill that html) 2016-02-13 00:48 (UTC)
ofapromise: (BWAHAHAAHAHAA)

[personal profile] ofapromise 2016-02-13 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
[That gets a grin. Zaveid can appreciate someone who goes along with his humor and gives it right back. Sure the other guy is kinda strange looking; he looks like a hellion if anything, but there's no malevolence and Zaveid has seen his fair share of weird shit going on since he got here.]

Oh c'mon. Don't you think you're being a bit harsh there? The ladies are loving the show!

[His arms extend and Zaveid motions to the few people in the area who have come to see what the big deal is.]

I'm a dream boat on a dream boat! What's not to love?
drinkuntilidie: (I'm a sexy beast)

[personal profile] drinkuntilidie 2016-02-13 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Whoever he is, the guy isn't so bad honestly. Any other time Kevas might have a drink with him maybe even get into a friendly bar fight. However, they're on his boat and Kevas refuses to be shown up on his own boat.]

So ya be thinkin' ya hot stuff huh?

[Kevas unfolds his arms, rolls his neck, and then his shoulders. Suddenly he grabs his shirt and tears it down the middle. With a shrug of his shoulders the tatters fall onto the boat's deck.]

Well if ya didn't notice I be twice da size.

[Flex.]

Got twice da muscle.

[Flex.]

And be twice da mon.

[FLEXING REACHING EPIC LEVELS]

Also I be havin' an awesome hat.

[As if to emphasize that he pulls his hat down just a little bit.]
ofapromise: (BWAHAHAAHAHAA)

[personal profile] ofapromise 2016-02-13 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh this is fantastic. Zaveid likes this guy already. The moment Kevas tears his shirt off, Zaveid throws his head back and cackles in triumph. Today is a good day. Massive grin on his face, he lets the troll take the spotlight for the moment.]

Eh, you're not that much bigger than me.

[They're a different species so Zaveid really can't compete with that. He does give a flex in return though.]

And, twice the mon, maybe. But I'm twice the man.

[And another flex.]

As for the hat. You might want to watch out for the wind!

[With the flick of his hand, a gust of wind rushes forth from nowhere to pick the hat off Kevas' head and launch it high into the air overhead.]
drinkuntilidie: (Oh so clever)

[personal profile] drinkuntilidie 2016-02-13 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
[As the gust of wind blasts the hat from his head Kevas cries out in surprise. He dashes across the deck, across the bow, and halfway up the bowsprit to barely catch it in his hand. With a sigh of relief he plops it back onto his head and slides back down to the deck.

The look he gives Zaveid is suddenly.]


So dat be da game ya wanna play huh? Okay den. We can play dat game.

[Kevas takes a looming step towards Zaveid...and then just disappears.

A split second later he explodes out of Zaveid's own shadow, arms wide in an attempt to grapple him.]


Let's play!
ofapromise: (w-whaa)

[personal profile] ofapromise 2016-02-18 10:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Oddly enough, Zaveid wasn't there to fight; he just wanted to check out that really cool looking ship. But, if the other guy wants to scuffle, then who is he to deny the opportunity? Thus far it all seems like banter, but he'll keep his guard up, just in case.

And rightfully so. Before Zaveid can get another word out, the troll is gone from sight. When Kevas bursts forth from his shadow, Zaveid yells in surprise and moves to sidestep. He's quick for his size. What kind of wind seraph would he be if he couldn't move like the breeze itself?

So close is Zaveid to being out of Kevas' reach, but it's just not enough. If Kevas is going for the grapple, he'll find himself succeeding with the hold.]


Sorry pal! You ain't my type!

[Forever amused, Zaveid starts to fight back, determined to break himself free of Kevas' reach.]
drinkuntilidie: (Default)

[personal profile] drinkuntilidie 2016-02-18 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Neither was Kevas but to be honest this might be the most fun he's had since he showed up here. Kevas has no intent on actually hurting anyone. It's all in good fun in his mind...and maybe to show off for any ladymons that might be watching. One never knows.]

Don't be like dat! What be a little hug between friends?

[Except what Kevas tries next is far from any hug. He tries to shift his grip as he attempts to lift Zaveid over his head. Except that's hard to do when he's putting up such a fight. Plus Zaveid is a big guy, even if Kevas is the taller of the two.]
