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!

Oh? Nothing at all. [She smiles as she can only imagine one thing to do with all that chocolate. She would pick out more bars to drop into the cart. There was more chocolate higher up but she could get to it too.]

If you can't reach these I'll get them for you but you won't eat them all at once, right?

[rancis]

[Now he is going to watch her. Strange lady, with no doubt.]

Of course not. I'm not going to eat any of it. I need it to build my kart!

[repine]

[She was puzzled by what he just said. How did one build a kart out of chocolate?] Huh? I don't think that would be all that useful.

[She picked up another bar and inspected it. Well perhaps this was not normal chocolate, after all it was wrapped up so neatly. She tried to read the label. Hershey's.] Hey, how do you do it? Build a kart out of these?

[rancis]

What should I make my kart out of, then? Do you even race, at all?

[He can make use of the hard candies, maybe...

But he likes his idea, better, really.]

You just...build it, really. You just need to know what you're doing!

[repine]

[She shook her head at him. She did not race. But since he seemed so sure about this and it really couldn't hurt anyone she wasn't going to object to what he was doing. It was all candy after all.]

Know what you're doing. Okay, I'll watch and learn from you.

[rancis]

You're going to watch me. Okay, lady, sure.

[Because a newbie is suddenly going to figure out how by watching. He pushes his shopping cart along, slightly, not being oblivious to the weight it's gaining.]

[repine]

Of course. And you will teach me what you know. [She would laugh merrily. She gets it. His tone made it obvious.] After all, who else knows as much you do.

[And she will continue to empty the shelf. Some of the chocolate bars were out of her reach but with her Power she could get them down and into the cart.]

[rancis]

[Was she making fun of him? But nevermind that, something is going on. The chocolate doesn't have legs and yet--]

How are you doing that?!

[repine]

[She hadn't really thought too deeply about what she was doing. She merely pictured it, it was her power but she had not taken into account the people here did not have this ability. It was just a natural thing for her to do.]

Well, it's my power. [There was no further explanation as far as she knew.]

[rancis]

[Someone has to be crazy. He stands on his tiptoes and leans over slightly to see if he can pinpoint some sort of explanation.]

Power? Is that from your game...?

[Because he is pretty sure the gamers back at home can't do that so this person has to be from their own game.]

[repine]

[She shook her head slowly. It wasn't from a game but she supposed they could use their power to play games.]

We do play different kinds of games back at home but everyone has power where I am from. Not the people here though, but that isn't bad. It just seems like things would be more difficult.

[rancis]

[He's just...going to be a little confused. Still.]

Power would be helpful in racing, I think.

[It's like cheating.]

But, never mind! I gotta get my kart together, first.

[repine]

You really think so? Then in that case I can help a little more after all. [But she had to wonder if that was cheating as well.]

But yes, you're right. Let's get to work. [And it seems she has invited herself along.]

[rancis]

We get a power up in game. Not that you know that but it does help us out a little. It doesn't last the whole time, though.

[It was a temporary thing, of course.

He pauses and sighs. So he has to work with a girl. Nothing new, he guesses.]

Okay, but if you want to make your own kart you have to get your own stuff.
