rubycity_ooc | RC Test Drive!

I don't really have a fitting picture for this.

G'day, Ruby City! It's time for a meme for both testdrivers and denizens.

Been itching to test out some CR but haven't had the posts to do it? Thinking of apping a character but not sure they'll fit in the city walls?

Have no fear, a meme for you is here.

Directions:

Post with your character with their name and canon on top!

Choose a location and prompt or wait for someone else to tag.

If you'd like, leave contact info for people to get in contact for plotting and other such shenans.

Tag around! Make friends. Don't be afraid to chat OOC while tagging.

Locations:

Train Station: New arrival, or waiting to welcome people? Either way, the train comes in, but you still can't ride it out.

Cathedral: Looking for redemption? Just doing a little sight-seeing? Or just getting a little shelter?

The Clocktower: You can see the whole city from here!

The Black Stallion Saloon: You were told the burgers were great here-- but maybe you just came for the beer.

The Library: You came to do a little research, but it looks like all of the information's just out of your reach. Though, you can always find a way to pass the time here.

The Coffee Joint: Run by Lukas, a lovely place to have a chat and a bite to eat.

Le Cafe Anglais: A Parisian-British fusion that's as charming as it sounds and serves the best tea around.

Scenarios

Just walked in: You intended to get here, and you made your way in; but now someone's caught your eye and you'd like to have a chat.

Been here all day: You've been sitting around minding the time. Maybe you didn't notice them at first or maybe you were just working up the courage to talk-- either way, they know you're here and you know it too.

Inclement weather: You're here because you've gotten rained in. This wasn't your choice, but at least it's dry-- right?

Wild card: Got something better in mind? Well screw these prompts, try it out yourself!

Have fun, guys!

[The man who steps off the train wears a familiar face, easily visible as he fiddles with the watch, the weight of which was unfamiliar in his pocket. The man whom man will know as an angel, friend, ally, brother even, lacks any of his usual clothes, sporting a blue sweater and grey pants, in addition to his look of utter confusion.

It differs noticeably from his usual look of not understanding in that it looks less like he's doing some critical thinking with a vast mind, and more like he's utterly and completely lost.

Almost like a normal person, not an angel.]

Hello? Is anyone... I'm afraid I don't know where I am or... how I got here. Is anyone there?

[Meg nearly falls off the bench she's settled on when she sees Castiel step off the train. No, she's got to be seeing things...]

Clarence?

[She steps towards him as if they're the best of friends, because let's be real, totally her unicorn. He can see her face, her real face, but at the moment? She doesn't seem to think that is a problem at all.]

Not what I was expecting, but can't complain.

[Not what Meg has expected - but certainly not what he has expected either. The man whom she knows as Castiel - or well, Clarence by choice - stumbles two steps back in what can only be described as shock, blue eyes wide as he sees the true face lurking behind the woman's flesh.

Not a woman, no. Whatever she is, she's not... she's... he doesn't have words for it, much as he doesn't have words for the strange energy he sometimes feels brimming inside of him, when Daphne sleeps and he wonders who he might have been before becoming Emmanuel.

No, he hasn't expected to see a monster - much less one that seems to know him... and part of him almost wants to ask if this is name - Clarence. Another part of him wants to board the train and leave, because there is no way that creature can be good news.]

What are you?

[The other pressing questions - of which he has so many, every day, more than ever here and now - have to wait in the shade of that one.]

[The hurt is evident on her face for a good moment before she schools it into a grin, trying to play it off. Give her a minute, she'll figure out what's going on...]

Whatever you want me to be, baby.

[Her words are followed promptly by a wink. But then she's distracted by what Castiel is wearing, because where is his trenchcoat? The questioning is obvious on her face even before she asks.]

Castiel.

[The word sounds more like a punctuation than anything, not the same easy tone she'd used when she'd called him Clarence. Yeah, way to confuse the poor guy...]

What are you wearing? I don't know if that's an upgrade to the trenchcoat...

[Way to totally ignore his fear and question, Meg.]

...Wait.

[He isn't... It doesn't take a genius to tell that Castiel is acting weirder than he normally does.]

What's my name?

[He's been lingering since Kate came and went. The man, much older than himself, but equally as lost as he'd been when he first arrived, steps off the train. The mingle of scents at the station was easily cut by the one that just appeared. Strange. He's never smelled anyone or anything that had such a cutting, defined scent.]

Yeah. I'm Scott, and this is Ruby City. [Scott makes a vague motion to the city behind him.] That train kind of kidnaps people.

[Scott is probably just as curious about Castiel as Castiel is about how he got here.]

[ Charlie, on some random trip to the library for REASONS, happens to be on the train platform when he arrives. She can relate so hard to what he's feeling. She totally felt like a fish out of water when she arrived.

She approaches him, arms crossed and a wry smile on her face. ]

Hey, guess you're one of the noobs, right? Rough stuff. Welcome to Ruby City. [ And she holds a hand out, ready to give him a handshake. ] My name's Charlie. Only been here a few weeks, but let me tell you - this place? Total blast.

[ Okay, so that may be a little sarcastic, but mostly because she's been going stir crazy around here. ]

[ Madoka's taken it upon herself to hang around the train station on the weekends when she doesn't have anything better to do; she remembers how confusing it had been arriving here herself, so it's only fair to help out other people who are now in the same position.

she approaches the newcomer with a reassuring smile, looking up at him. ]

Hello, sir! I guess you must be new here, huh?

[That is a familiar face, though only vaguely so. Adam's experiences with Castiel have been limited, but thanks to Gabriel's reassurance, he's one of the few angels he's not going to stubbornly keep his distance from. As far as he's been told, Castiel is on their side. He'd like to think that's still the case.]

Castiel?

[His hands are in his pockets at he approaches, wary despite the angel more or less having a free pass as being trustworthy.]

I can think of a few people who'll be glad to see you. You alright?
