THE TEST-DRIVE MEME!

1. Using a journal of a character you've considered apping in Ruby City, post a comment as if they're already in the game! It can be audio/video, accidental/on purpose, intro/been there for ages.
2. Tag around with others--potential characters or characters who are already in the game--to see how well they fit.
3. Get a better idea of how well they'd work out in Ruby City, and app or not app accordingly!

Katniss Everdeen | The Hunger Games | Book!Verse

[broke_the_games]

[There's a girl in the train station, holding onto a silver bow with an arrow set carefully in place and with blood dripping down from her forehead into one of her eyes. As concerning as the blood may be, she's not focused on that. Not yet.]

naminé | kingdom hearts: com

[heartsansgirl]

[she doesn't quite remember how she got on the train nor does she remember most of her trip. she wonders if she's living and breathing the worlds Sora has visited rather than rearranging them, but of all the memories she plucked and redrew none of them were this gloomy--none of the worlds he visited were this destitute, not even Hollow Bastion in its towering, intimidating glory.

still, she can't help but tilt her head in wonder. where is she? what is this, if not a place? there are so many things she wants to know, wants to take in, that she forgets she's standing right in front of the doors -- not quite blocking the whole of the entrance, but still managing to become an obstacle all the same.]

[coolerthansora]

[Roxas has come to think of it as the norm that people will keep disappearing, rather than reappearing, so it's a shock to see Naminé-- albeit a pleasant one. He runs up to her, a little smile forming on his face.]

Naminé!

[heartsansgirl]

[she tilts her head with a smile that doesn't quite reach her eyes. it's -- ]

Roxas!

[coolerthansora]

I'm--

[He isn't sure what to say-- he doesn't know how much she remembers about this place, or about anything really.]

You're here.

[heartsansgirl]

[all she remembers are the awful things HAHA]

Wherever this is, you're also here.

[coolerthansora]

Er- yeah, I guess so.

[He looks sheepish.]

I'm just glad to see you.

Ashitaka. Pirncess Mononoke.

[eyes_unclouded]

[This was all so very unfamiliar to him in so very many ways. Ashitaka wasn't even close to being able to process the train, the city's buildings, this strange new device in his hands. He figured the train had something to do with Iron since it let smoke out of it's front portion but he knew Eboshi wasn't this far along with her town. Where were the wooden buildings? The thatched roofs? Anything familiar... perhaps this was some sort of dream...]

[makemyday]

[And there would be a set of unnaturally yellow eyes on the confused-looking male as he looked around. It looked to Crowley as if the man was trying to recognise something in the surroundings--and coming up with nothing. The man pushed his sunglasses up on those far-too unnatural eyes before speaking to get the male's attention.]

My reaction was a little bit the same when I first got here. Except I landed on my arse, as opposed to walking out calmly. I guess that's what happens when you try to break the conductor's door down.

Kisame || Naruto

[scourgeofthemist]

[Well, well, now this was interesting. Not quite as interesting as the fight he'd just been about to be in, but Kisame was nothing if not a curious man. He steps out of the train and begins looking around, wondering if perhaps he'd just got knocked out and was dreaming, or, even more likely, if he was caught in genjutsu.]

Kai!

[...well, then, either it wasn't a genjutsu, or it was a very good one.]

...so, then. Where exactly have I stumbled upon...?

[rewritingtacticalprogram]

[There was a slight whirr sound, like a movement of long-idle machinery. A single, glowing red eye moves to regard the newcomer from where the heavy-cloaked man stood, having hung around the train station in an unfamiliar location. Twice, now, he had sent out for orders, only to have none come in. He'd explored the area twice now, and had a nice mental map in his head of it. However, he'd seen no sign of anyone on his travels, until now. Those eyes lay upon the confused newcomer, and his lips parted. A very calm, completely neutral voice spoke loud enough for Kisame to hear.]

Insufficient Data for proper analysis of 'where' this place is. Current gathered information: Title: Ruby City. Country: Undetermined. Population: Life forms detected, only fauna confirmed. By your confusion I am deducting that you are not originally from this place either.

[He didn't trust this grey-skinned man. His fingers already laying against the handle of one of his over-sized guns.]

[scourgeofthemist]

[Kisame raised his eyebrow at the...what the Hell was he supposed to be? Some mechanical...person? He only smirked at the Data. If this WAS a Genjutsu, it was a very thought out one.

He highly doubted it was one. The place was interesting enough, though...that his world was a lie would be no big surprise to him.]

Ruby City...no, I can't say I've even heard of it.

[rewritingtacticalprogram]

[He would likely rather bluntly point out to the grey-skinned man that there was no such a thing as 'genjutsu', the word not pinging off any data he had currently at his disposal.]

There is no such city in any of the databases I have currently on hand. It is either somewhere I have not been, or has been purposely kept out of my reach until this point.

[He had started to make a move toward the man, another sort of mechanical creaking could be heard as he moved. Watching, now, as the train that brought the man here started to leave.]

Answer: How did you arrive here. Did you come willingly, or were you forced.

[scourgeofthemist]

Against my own will.

[He answers simply, still watching the man with a bit of fascination.]

And who, or what are you?

[rewritingtacticalprogram]

As I thought.

[This man arrived the very same way he did, most likely. Suddenly, and very against his will. The man did not miss a beat when he was asked who and what he was, regarding the other with a plain look.]

HC IIIX Tres Iqus. Codename: Gunslinger. I belong to Her Lady Caterina Sforza. Identify yourself as well.

[scourgeofthemist]

[Honesty and straightforwardness? What was this? He smirks, amused.]

Hoshigaki Kisame, formerly of the Mist Village. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

[rewritingtacticalprogram]

[He didn't nod, or offer greeting to the other in the same almost warm way the grey skinned man did. His unblinking gaze merely staring at him for a moment as he processed this.]

Name Origin: Japanese. Village: Not in databanks. Where exactly is this 'Mist Village'? Answer, are you Terran or Methuselah?

[scourgeofthemist]

[He chuckled, a bit bemused.]

It's on an island in the Land of Waves.

...what do you mean, 'Terran' or 'Methuselah'?

[rewritingtacticalprogram]

I do not recognise the name you use. 'Land of Waves' is not a country in any of the maps on record.

[He deduced that it was a possibly very small, unknown location, not unlike this 'Ruby City'.]

Your species. The far more common terms being 'Human' or 'Vampire.' However, such terms are frowned upon. Answer, what are you.

[scourgeofthemist]

Human. And what are you, some kind of machine?

[rewritingtacticalprogram]

[He quietly deduced that the skin color and markings were merely an overuse of makeup, or perhaps even tattooing. His eyes flickering a bit like a camerashutter.]

Positive. I am a cyborg constructed by Professor Gepetto Garibaldi. You do not need to know any more than that.

[scourgeofthemist]

Heheh, fair enough, 'Gunslinger'.

[Guns were very rare in his world - rifles used mostly by the Daimyo's men.

Kisame looks back out of the city, and scratches at his nose. Nothing came off of the man's face.]

So how do you suppose we get out of here?

Anastasia | Anastasia (Don Bluth film)

[the_last_romanov]

[Oh hey, whoa! Totally not the "grand ball" she was at with her grandmama. And not as chilly and cold as it was in Paris.]

Lenneth Valkyrie || Valkyrie Profile

[virginwarrior]

[Yep, there's an... Armored woman in the station, wide blue eyes looking around suspiciously with a sword drawn and wearing a feathered helmet. Some might recognize her getup as that of a Valkyrie.]

Dirk Strider || Homestuck

[thepuppetmaster]

... This isn't Derse.

[Dirk frowns, and adjusts his sunglasses, then he checks his clothes. Definitely not Derse]

Not Texas either.

[Well, with that out of the way - and verbalising his concerns about exactly where he was would be just a step too far - Dirk examines the station]

[tipsywhorebible]

[Is that...?

It is!]

STRUUUUUDEEEEEELLLLL~~~~! [This is his only warning before he gets a big cuddly hug from a certain drunken rich girl. She even spills half of her current martini on him in her excitement, see, isn't that nice of her?]
