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!

_{[Did he hear that correctly? Wright?... must be a coincidence. Wright wasn't that uncommon of a last name.]}

A pleasure to meet you as well, Miss Wright.

How long have you been here? Has someone...oriented you around the city yet?

_{[He had better start there. It's easy to transition into 'by the way you need housing since you're not going home' bit.]}

[ This must be what her father-- Phoenix was talking about. Different time periods and the such. She's already broken enough brains for one day, so it's best to maybe not drop the 'PHOENIX IS MY DAD' bomb on him yet. ]

Er-- well, not long. A few hours... da-- [ she pauses for a moment -- ] ...Mr. Wright [ That sounds just as awkward to say as it is to even think about, and it probably translates into her voice. ] told me a bit about it, but we got a bit... sidetracked. Hahahahaaaa...

_{[He narrows his eyes suspiciously as she says that name... but lets it go. He can't say anything about that other than she said it oddly and that's... well. Odd. He lets it go.]}

I see. Have you managed to find a place to stay?

_{[He is prepared to offer his guest room to her if she needs it. He's done so for other residents in need.]}

Sidetracked? _{[Since when did Phoenix ever let go of major issues like kidnappings? He was usually like a dog with a bone about that.]}

[ Trucy picks up on that. Right, she's a performer, she can do better than this! ]

No, I haven't. I haven't really tried, though... I've been too busy trying to figure out how I even got here, honestly.

[ She grins slightly up at him, trying to think of the best way to put it. ]

...Let's just say that I'm well acquainted with the area that you guys live in. He was just asking me about things at home.

Oh you're from our world. Of course.

_{[Well that made sense. Sort of. How did she know Wright exactly? Sure he had some big cases but he wasn't an all star attorney that the general public knew.]}

Unfortunately that isn't an answer I can give other than the identities of our captors. They are godlike beings in comparison to us and can summon us here through time and space. We know nothing of their motives or weaknesses.

... And it's late enough, you are welcome to stay in my guest room for the time being if you don't mind a dog.

I see... well, that's unfortunate. If I can find anything else out at some point, I'll definitely let you know! I'm so grateful for what you've told me already, though, I can't thank you enough!

[ So much for that. Four of the books that she's got piled up are unceremoniously closed and she slouches slightly in her seat... well, until he offers her up temporary shelter. ]

Are you sure, Mr. Edgeworth? I don't want to impose. [ But then she's smiling again, pleased. ] I love dogs! I've always wanted one, but we can't really afford it right now.

_{[He nods, smiling warmly. She's such a well mannered girl. How refreshing considering the one he was raised with...]}

I can answer most of the questions you might have about living here. Feel free to reference me, Trucy.

_{[He smiles even wider. Oh Pess, his beloved pet. His mental stability hinges on your well being.]}

I am sure Pess would love the company. It's a rather large house, he often gets lonely.

_{[translation being 'yes, play with the animal all you like. Not that he ever gets tired of loving attention.']}

[ She looks relieved, and she smiles back at him, because really he's already helped more than he'll ever know. ]

Thank you so much! I'll definitely take you up on that offer. Any and all information I can get is wonderful, honestly. I don't know how I'm ever going to pay you back for this, Mr. Edgeworth.

[ She means it, too. Hopefully, at the very least, she'll be able to help him dig for more things about this city and the beings that have brought them here. She'll definitely return the favor in any way she can, though.

She looks pretty excited now, but who wouldn't? This day is turning out to be better than she thought it would, considering she's been kidnapped, Phoenix has no idea who she is, and the day just kind of started out as a nightmare in general. ]

If you ever need anyone to take him for walks or even to just play with him, I'll do it! What kind of dog is he?

Don't worry about paying me anything back, Trucy.

_{[He remembers how awful and frightening it was when he first came here. He wants to be there for her, especially someone from home. How he will flip when he discovers just who she is.

He'll inform her of everything he knows, which is quite a lot actually. He had been working day and night on this for a year. Until he fell in love anyway...

He chuckled softly. Her offer was sweet but walking that dog was kind of his life line in this situation.]}

Of course. He is a Shiba Inu.

I'll definitely pay you back. M-maybe not right away, but I promise I will!

[ She's determined Edgeworth, so there's no choice. You're going to get paid back at some point, whether it be something small or large she can do for him.

The prospect of just being able to hang out with the dog is almost too much, really. As simple as it may be, she does like animals, and really, who can resist a cute dog? ]

He sounds adorable!

If you insist, Trucy. It truly isn't necessary but I appreciate the gesture.

_{[he'll accept the help, but nothing more than she can spare. He won't stand for her to exhaust herself for what he's given as an honest gift.]}

He'll be very pleased to meet you, I am sure. I was going to head home, he needs a walk soon. Shall we?

[ She simply smiles again and nods as she begins to pile all of the books up to put away. She can let someone else do it, yeah, but she's used to putting things away, and she may be a little nervous about the entire situation herself. ]

Yes, thank you. I'll just be a minute--

[ She manages to pick the books up, and staggers back to the random aisles she'd picked them up from. A few minutes later she returns, bookless. ]

Okay, I'm ready!

RC Test Drive!

I was seriously JUST talking about wanting a Kay too... also that threat above is killing me

The mun is amazing, I adore her Kay. XD HEE. Poor Maya and Phoenix~

Then I look very much forward to being her counterpart

You will love her <3

I am so excited~

I am too. ;; I can't wait for my days off so that I can actually start on Trucy's app.

Days off~ I ought to play Miles' game again on mine to refresh Kay in my mind

HEE YOU SHOULD <3 also i'd laugh if poor Edgeworth ends up living with both Trucy and Kay for a bit~

I think that totally needs to happen. They'll surely charm his fiance. She's super nice

LOL. They'll try not to break all of the things with magic and thievery.

Somehow I think they will anyway.

LOL. The keyword there was 'try'~
