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!

[She just lifts an eyebrow at him, crossing her arms in front of her chest.]

Looking for you, but you're not Cat Sith, are you.

[shadowroads]

[He mimics her posture, crossing his arms and mockingly lifting an eyebrow.]

And what would Cat Sith be?

[No, he isn't going to admit to anything.]

[magicalpadawan]

The king of the malks. He's kinda big, doesn't take well to catnip jokes.

[shadowroads]

I certainly haven't seen anyone like that around here.

[Tybalt is a combination of amused and intrigued- Cat Sith as a 'who', not a 'what'. That's very strange.]

Little girls probably shouldn't go peering into dark alleys, though. You never know what you're going to turn up.

[magicalpadawan]

Of course you haven't.

[And she sounds entirely cheerful and pleasant, leaning back against the opposite wall just in case she might need something at her back.]

Maybe you should try telling that to someone who'd actually be scared of dark alleys. I find them pretty handy, myself.

[shadowroads]

I'm sure I would have noticed. Maybe he went into the next dark alley down the way.

[He examines his nails, his tone fairly bored.]

You want me to ask what you find them handy for. I'm not sure I'm going to give you the satisfaction.

[magicalpadawan]

Not really, just figured I should let you know you're not all that scary, cheshire.

[shadowroads]

Fortunately for my tender feelings, I wasn't trying to be.

Are you planning to stay long?
