Test Drive Meme | #49


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. Let's play cops and robbers!
    Local law enforcement is handled by the Keeliai Police Department, an organization of both Foreigners and kedan dedicated to keeping the peace in the turtle... and they're about to make a raid on a large, illegal gambling ring! Are you going to collar the nearest bad guy, or are you one of the high rollers now looking to make a quick escape? Or a bookie who's now getting booked downtown?

  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??

    (Please note: This scenario isn't applicable to becoming game canon if you choose to app your character, as an alien pterosaur attack is a major event.)

  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 uncontrollable urge to polish every paving stone in the Earth Sector? Anything goes!

[There is a lot Kurogane can say with this one action, whether it be to comfort or to annoy the one he's doing it too. The last time his hand had been near Fai's head it had been to punish him for saying stupid things. No towel had been in the way then so he could feel how soft the mage's hair was. He's aware that the towel isn't going to instantly dry the other man's hair, especially not at the length it is now.

So when he feels that it's dry enough, he pulls the towel away - tossing it towards the open bathroom door. Then Kurogane takes the teacup back from Fai and sets it down on the nearest hard surface. Both hands rest on the other man's shoulders, steering him gently but also forcefully towards the bed.

This is all a bit strange, Fai letting him do whatever he wants without complaint either verbally or physically. It tells Kurogane just how out of it the mage is and he has to wonder if this is how the man was after Celes, in the time Kurogane had been unconscious and healing. He's never asked seeing as how Fai had others to help him through that time, Syaoran and Mokona, along with Tomoyo and the others from his homeworld. Not to mention seeing to Sakura's body and making deals with the witch.

Perhaps he'd been too preoccupied right away to dwell on the thoughts and events of what happened. All Kurogane is sure of is that the mage was all too ready to hit him when he woke up, things changed between them after that. Partially back to how it was before but yet different.

No matter what comforting is not exactly something Kurogane does a lot of, taking care of someone who needs comfort. A headpat and some words are all it takes most days. Except he's already said all he needed to regarding the events in Celes. Already he's done a lot more than he would do.

So he merely guides Fai to the right side of the double bed (Kurogane hadn't bothered specifying what sort of room they needed) and pushes him down to sit on it.]


Get some rest. [Kurogane moves to the left side after grabbing his sword, sinking down onto it with his back pressing up against the headboard - arms crossing over his chest. A clear sign that he intends to keep watch tonight.]

[Tomorrow. Surely he'll feel less wrung-out tomorrow. Then they can make plans, gather information, and see about finding the kids. Kurogane's right--Syaoran and Mokona will be fine. Hopefully they're together, wherever they are, and it's got to be close because he and Kurogane are still talking like regular people instead of having to revert back to charades the way they've done before. Hell, maybe they're even in the same hotel. Fai feels like that's something Kurogane probably thought to ask about at the front desk, but he honestly can't remember. Tomorrow he'll ask, just to make sure.

He doesn't resist when Kurogane steers him to the bed, though he doesn't immediately collapse onto the pillow either. He sits there on the edge while Kurogane settles himself against the headboard, then very carefully picks the clothes Kurogane bought him off of the bedspread and folds them into a neat little pile.]


No wrinkling my nice new clothes, Kurgie.

[There's a little bit of a smile as he tucks the clothes into the drawer of the bedside table, then burrows under the blankets on his own side of the bed. Fai immediately stuffs his face into the pillow, lying on his stomach. He can't even guess if he'll be too worn out for nightmares tonight, or if they'll be worse than usual, but hiding his face in his pillow to mask them has become something of a habit.]

[He's not entirely sure that Syaoran or Mokona are here, if they are then they might be from different points in time like he and Fai are. Kurogane has already asked around a little bit while he was out running his errands. Informed the individual at the front desk to alert him if anyone came asking about them. If Fai were in any shape to be walking about, he knows they wouldn't be laying about in the hotel right now. Surely if any of them were here they would find their way to the hotel located in the central of the city.

At the complaint he makes a sound that is clearly a sign that he doesn't particularly care if the clothes are wrinkled.]


They're just clothes, idiot.

[Still spoken without malice or real bitternesss of any kind. He doesn't move as Fai settles into the bed, merely checking to make sure the mage is covered up properly. Not a word is spoken about how the other man buries his face from view or if he even believes that Fai will sleep for a single second. After all that happened, Fai just might.]
