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!

[Jack isn't really used to being looked at at all, let alone greeted with that kind of friendly manner. Without much of a pause, he hops down from his perch, using the hook of his shepherd's staff to bounce off the light pole before letting the wind carry him down to come to a stand in front of Felix.

He raises an eyebrow for a moment before looking behind him to see if there's anyone else around and returns his attention to the builder, pointing to himself.]

You can see me?

[Felix looks a little perplexed, but puts his hands on his hips and continues to smile brightly.]

Sure can! Are you a ghost where you come from? [He still has to look up at Jack, but he holds out his hand.]

[bringsthefrost]

[He straightens himself and leans against his staff. Felix is a little shorter than the adults he's used to seeing so it's kind of dubious belief that he can see him. He gives a shrug, reaching out to take his hand.]

Guess you could say that. Kinda have to be dead to be a spirit. Name's Jack Frost.

[Felix shakes his hand; he's not familiar with the stories of Jack Frost - they don't exist in the programming of the arcade.]

Well, Jack, it's nice to meet you. I hate to say it, but it's too bad we couldn't meet under better circumstances! [Felix looks around a bit, pulling his coat around him a bit tigher.] We're all trapped here, you see. The whole kit and kaboodle.

[It's kinda funny how that would usually make it Felix wouldn't be able to see him, but he guessed that came with the 'whole kit and kaboodle'. He takes his hand back and shoves it into the pocket of his own hoodie, frowning as he looks around as well.]

Great. Well I hope the others can handle things without me. [Not that they weren't before they wanted him to join up. He notices Felix bundle his coat around him a bit tighter and pulls back a little.] Sorry. The cold comes with the territory.

Oh, no, you're not bugging me! [Felix doesn't realize what it is that Jack Frost does, actually.] It just never snows where I'm from. Not in the programming and all. [He smiles, proof that it doesn't bother him at all.]

And I wouldn't worry about your friends - I was told that time stops in the places we come from while we're here. Makes me feel better too...I'd hate to think about what would happen if I were gone.

Programming? [Jack raises an eyebrow, but he doesn't make any other comment. He's still kind of getting used to the fact that Felix can see him, let alone what he means. The comment about it never snowing does make him scratch his chin a little.] Well there are some parts of Australia that I tend to avoid because of a certain cranky rabbit but I do my best to cover the rest of the world.

They're not really my friends. We're...more like people that share similar jobs, y'know?
