Time for another test drive!

[fairbrook]

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!

Yin | Darker Than Black

[water_specters]

A. Train Station

[A teenager with silver hair and pale eyes steps off the train and pauses. She doesn't look around, she just seems to be standing there for several long moments before beginning to move.

Her direction seems to be heading towards a bench and once she gets there she takes a seat, staring straight ahead and unmoving for the moment.]

B. Cathedral
[Once the rain started, Yin was on the move. She took a path through the city without really looking where she was going even though she had a clear destination in mind. Once she reached it, she stopped in front to the cathedral and gazed up. She made no effort to step out of the rain or even to keep it off of her. Despite being soaked, she seemed to be content to let it hit her.]

B.

Hey! Hey, you! Don't you have enough sense to come out of the rain?

[Sasha is standing sheltered in the doorway of the cathedral, squeezing water out from her ponytail - she apparently got caught in the rain, too.]

Come on, get over here...there's more than enough room. You'll catch the lung fever! Pneumonia, I mean.

[Her skin is an unsettlingly pale shade, but she seems friendly enough, though you can't seem to place her accent.]

Re: B.

[water_specters]

[Yin pauses and turns to look toward the voice calling to her. She remains still for several moments before moving towards the doorway shelter.

The moment she steps out of the rain her view of the world darkens and she leans against the door. The teen doesn't give any indication that she's even looking at the woman beside her and just as her skin is pale and unsettling, Yin's eyes are a pale unseeing violet.]

I won't get sick.

[Sasha grins toothily, but the smile vanishes when she realizes the girl isn't looking at her, or making any move to dry herself off.]

Are you all right? You might be healthy as a horse, but even so, it can't be comfortable to just stand there soaking wet.

Re: B.

[water_specters]

I'm fine. I can see this way.

Re: B.

[fangs_for_the_memories]

You can see? Huh...you're not quite what you seem, are you?

[Sasha moves to take Yin by the arm, moving slowly to try to avoid startling the girl.]

Do you need...uh...a lake, or something? I've known a nixie or two in my time, but they're usually more for the bodies-of-water thing, and the dragging-unsuspecting-humans-to-their-deaths thing, not so much standing about in the rain.
