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:

1. Comment with the journal of a character you want to test; put their name and canon in the subject line for added sparkles.
2. Tag around with everyone!
3. Profit like you live on a 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. A Chance Meeting at the Turtle's Head.
   Remember, being here causes a great sense of-- well, shall we say inner peace.
2. 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 turtleshell!
3. Hey, I Just Met You, and This is Crazy...
   First impressions are always the most important, right?
4. 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!

This marks the official start of the monthly test drive meme and, to celebrate, we're giving a new feature a shot. The first comment/thread on this test drive is going to be titled ENABLE ME and it's where you post character accounts/muselists, etc and others (members, passerbys, shoulder demons) can enable you to apply to Tu Shanshu! Come, let us enable you to the turtletastic madness!

[Talin had been observing the proceedings with a hint of amusement. Observing, nothing more, and silently at that. Far be it from him to interrupt the personal affairs of another. He knows better by this point in his considerable life, though that doesn't mean he can't derive some twisted pleasure from it.

There comes a point, however, when Talin really must insert himself into the argument. He's a forced to be reckoned with when something's piqued his interest, and just now, he's single-minded in his pursuit.]

A dragon, you say? [Talin appears at Garret's side; a slighter and smaller man than he, with eyes dark enough to match the jet-black braid of hair hanging over his shoulder. Voids though they are, that gaze seems to sparkle with a hunger, and he hooks an arm in Garret's to steer him rather directly away from the vendor's booth.]

You will have to forgive me for interjecting, but it has been quite some time since I have heard a dragon spoken of in this place. Would you tell me of it? Your dragon?
