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:

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

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

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

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

  5. 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.

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

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


Scenarios

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

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

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


Have fun, guys!

Um, I've actually ever seen one before I got here. [She puts a hand on Pearl's shoulder, squeezing it a bit absentmindedly as she stares at the Cathedral. She's been in the Cathedral a few times, but one of those experiences wasn't... exactly a cup of tea so bitter you lose your tongue.]

Nick said it's called a Cathedral, so I think it's a kind of shrine. Not like any of ours.

A shrine?! [ her hand flies to cover her mouth in her surprise, and she looks between Maya and the building with eyes as wide as dinner plates. ] But it's so huge! Whatever spirit it was built in honour of must be truly powerful, right?

Um... I guess so. I don't think they're any spirits like ours, though. Not like Mystic Ami.

[She's going to have to ask someone who knows these things.] They even let you go inside. There are chairs and everything, and rooms, and a biiig altar.

Or at least, it looked like an altar last time I saw it.

They're not? [ she looks mystified, trying to wrap her head around the concept of spirits that aren't spirits at the same time. ]

Have you really been inside, Mystic Maya? What does everyone do in there?

[ in her head, she's imagining some kind of huge channelling lesson, or maybe even a public channelling or some kind. ]

Of course I've been inside.

[She puts her hands on her hips, feigning offence.]

But... it was because I guess... I got a little hurt, and there was someone there who helped me. I've never been in there when there were more people in it.

[...She doesn't seem too fond of the memory, but quickly brightens up. She really has no clue-- she'd mentioned it looked like a stage to Nick, but he quickly shot that one down.] Let's go inside and find out!

[personal profile] ghostshippingly 2013-07-17 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
You got hurt?! [ sorry, Maya, everything else you said fell on deaf ears in the face of this information. ] B-but-- that's terrible! You're okay now, aren't you, Mystic Maya? And Mr. Nick helped you too, didn't he?!

[Ohhh dear. That's what she gets.]

Of course he did. Just like he'd help you. [There's one quick way out of this, and that's leaning over to tickle at Pearl's sides.]

C'maaaan, Pearly, I wanna go look!
ghostshippingly: (☼ well I coulda been royalty)

[personal profile] ghostshippingly 2013-07-22 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh... good. [ she seems satisfied by that answer, at least. ] O-of course, I knew he woul--

[ and what she was about to say is broken off by a loud shriek as she dissolves into helpless giggles, squirming at the tickling. ]

M-Mystic Maya--! That - this isn't fair!!!

Of course it's fair! I'm the boss here, you know!

[Sweeping Pearl up, she covers the younger medium's hair and head in silly, sloppy kisses, her fingers still prodding at Pearl's sides.]

I've got youuu!
ghostshippingly: (☼ to my long lost friends)

[personal profile] ghostshippingly 2013-07-23 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Pearl squeals a little more, still trying to wriggle out of Maya's hold. ]

Mystic Maayyaaaaaaa! S-stop it!!

Nope! It's too late now, no one can save you!

[She gives Pearl a playful squeeze, giggling before finally stopping the tickles.]

Alright, alright. [She doesn't put her down, but supports her with her hip.]

I'll stop, if you'll come look inside with me!
ghostshippingly: (☼ I coulda been a common thief)

[personal profile] ghostshippingly 2013-07-24 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Noooooooooooooo!

[ her protest dissolves into helpless giggles, and when Maya finally leaves off, she keeps laughing for a few moments, trying to catch her breath (and her composure) and only being slightly successful. ]

Of - of course - I'll come and look! [ still catching her breath, she brushes a strand of hair out of her face, a stray giggle escaping her. ] I want to see what such a big shrine looks like from inside!

[God, her cousin is precious.]

Good. I've gotta have you near to beat up anybody I don't like if they show up. [She winks at Pearl, walking her to the door before setting her down.]

Alright! Hold my hand, okay?
ghostshippingly: (☼ do you know the one where we all)

[personal profile] ghostshippingly 2013-07-25 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Okay!

[ she takes Maya's hand once she's set down, although she's privately taking Maya's comment about beating up anyone she doesn't like very seriously. ]

I'm ready! Let's go and see, Mystic Maya!

[Pearly no.

Maya leads Pearl in, looking around the Cathedral in a bit of awe herself. THis is only about the third time she's seen the inside-- the second time made her very much not want to come back, after all.]


It's huge, isn't it, Pearly?
ghostshippingly: (☼ do you have a house on the hill)

[personal profile] ghostshippingly 2013-07-27 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I-it's enormous!

[ she cranes her neck, leaving go of Maya's hand temporarily so that she can spin around and get a good look from all angles. ]

Oh, Mystic Maya, look! [ she points at one of the stained glass windows, the light streaming through it to illuminate the picture. ] The windows have pictures in them! I couldn't see that from the outside!

Oh-- you're right!

I... don't really know who all those pictures are of, though. I wonder if Nick knows anything about them?

[And how they're made! She didn't know you could put so many pieces of coloured glass together that way.]
ghostshippingly: (☼ do you have a story for me?)

[personal profile] ghostshippingly 2013-07-28 11:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I hope so! I bet that whoever they are, they must be really important. Ahh, it's so amazing...!

I guess so! And if not, you know what we can do, Pearly? [GRIN.] We can go find a book in the library and look it up. And after that we can read comic books instead.
