TEST-DRIVE MEME

Maybe you've considered appping a new character but you're not sure how well they would adjust to the in-game scenario? Well, here's a chance to give it a try!

• Post with a character journal you'd like to voicetest or you've considered apping to Ruby City. Feel free to play them as newcomers or as if they've been here for a while - the setting is your own choice.

•Respond to other threads with new characters or with characters who are already in the game.

• Explore different interactions, find castmates, develop possible CR - anything you want, as long as you have fun!

[He blinks twice.]

Body...pillows? You mean those big tube things with people drawn on them?

[looselips]

[... ... ...]

Idiot.

[puppy_lancer]

Anyway, I don't need or have any of those. I bet it's only something a kid like you uses.

[looselips]

[UGH GROSS]

No, they're definitely for loser manchildren like you!

[puppy_lancer]

Hey, I'm a hero, so don't call me a loser!

[looselips]

[. . .]

That's the only part you have a problem with?

[puppy_lancer]

We've already established the fact that I'm not a pedophile and I don't own weird dolls. What else do I need to have a problem with?

[looselips]

Well, if you're fine with being called a manchild, who am I to tell you not to be?

[puppy_lancer]

I'm less of a child than you are.

[After all, the meaning of the words were pretty obvious, weren't they? He was a man, and to the perspective of older beings, he was a child.]

[looselips]

[huff!!!]

What do you know? I bet you're just mad that a "kid" [he obviously doesn't think the word actually applies to him] is smarter than you are!

[puppy_lancer]

Oh? And in what sense? You know more about weird human dolls?

[looselips]

I was able to hack into the Moon Cell without help from anyone! I bet a lameass like you couldn't even come close to that.

[puppy_lancer]

...What's a moon cell?

[You've lost him.]

[looselips]

It's a giant chunk of photonic crystal that works like one big computer. Only a couple hundred people in the entire world can hack into it like I did. If you can get into it, you can get into anything.

[puppy_lancer]

Ugh, computers.

[He knows they're good for entertainment or information, but just thinking about hacking one makes his brain hurt.]

So what do you do in that moon cell thing?

[looselips]

That's... That's none of your business. [Mostly because that's when the story turns embarrassing. You better believe that if he had more to brag over, he would.] All that matters is that I can do it and you can't.

[puppy_lancer]

I bet I can do even more things that you can't do.

[But since he's a Servant, this is pretty much a given.]

[looselips]

You? Who'd want to do whatever lame tricks you can pull off by rubbing your two braincells together? You aren't better than me, so stop acting like you are!

[puppy_lancer]

[Lancer mentally runs through his list of abilities that he can show off without outright exposing his Servant status. Spear tricks? He'd need to manifest the spear first. Spirit mode? Would out him as a Servant. Dog affinity? No dogs. Runic magic? Maybe.]

Watch this.

[He quickly sketches the ansuz rune to create a little flame that dances in the palm of his hand.]

How's that? Better than computers, right?

[looselips]

[Okay, wait, no, that wasn't that bad. IT'S NOT TOO LATE, MAYBE HE CAN STILL PLAY IT COOL...!]

[looselips]

...Hah, whatever! That doesn't make you smarter than me. Why don't you just buzz off and crawl back to your basement already?

[puppy_lancer]

Because my legs are perfectly functional and can walk faster than yours.

[looselips]

Then why don't you go use them to walk off a bridge?

[puppy_lancer]

Because I don't wanna get wet. Your point?
