RC Test Drive!

[rubycitymods]

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!

A knight may serve many masters, even if there is one above all. I serve my Lady, and the people of the kingdom, and those who owe me fealty. [He shakes his head, slowly, his look dolorous.] Yet I have left the service of my King.

[He would still do whatever Arturia asked of him, but he does not deserve to be her loyal servant, and he will not claim an honor that is not his. To die in her arms was far more than he could have hoped for, and he will be satisfied with that final reward. Without explaining his statement, he follows Merlin obediently.]

Nothing is ever so simple as one might hope. I have been summoned in such a manner before, to a time and place that were not my own, but the circumstances were not the same, and I do not believe the explanation would be similar.

[ his brows lift, curious and a little startled again. it's not easy to surprise merlin these days-- he's always had a sense for the future, even more so as he grew older and into his powers. (it's been a lonely existence; even with arthur's love, the respect of his people, merlin is essentially alone.) that, though.. that's not what he was expecting to hear. ]

.. Have you? [ a man like lancelot, beloved of the lady, would not have done so lightly. so what had happened between he and arthur?

it's not something he thinks the knight is ready to share, and to be honest, merlin isn't entirely prepared to hear it, so for the moment he lets it lie at that. instead, he shifts his focus to the taller man's other statement. ] How do you mean?

[knightofhonor]

[He nods to answer Merlin's question. Yes, he has, though the fact pains him. He is pleased not to be asked about it, as it would pain him more to speak of it, though he would likely answer the question if asked directly. His treachery should not be hidden. He should not be afforded that luxury.]

I am what you might consider a copy of the man known as Lancelot, in a way. I have his memories and emotions, and I am like him in every way, but the true Lancelot is long dead, and his soul resides in the Throne of Heroes. I am a being known as a Servant, bound to a Master, or I was. That bond is gone now. My Master summoned me into a vessel as a Heroic Spirit to fight in a War between magi. It is called the Holy Grail War: a battle in which Heroes fight to the death--and the last one living wins the Holy Grail for his or her Master. The Grail, in turn, grants the winners each a wish, or so it is said. I was defeated before the War's end, and then I appeared here, as if summoned yet again, but there is no battle here that I have seen.
