Let's take this for a spin

[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!

Train station!

[renegadehero]

[Sorry tall afro-latina superhero - this African American vigilante is just as clueless.

Sojourner - well no, Sparrow since she's in uniform - blinks at the sudden question. She's been busy mopping up her split lip to realize anyone else was even on the platform with her.]

No idea!

[And that's said with the most cheerfulness in the world. She grins, then grimaces and returns to mopping up the split lip.]

[shebangin]

-- Girl, the hell you come from with all that?

[Mm-mm, all bloodied up? Not on Shebang's watch.]

Come here, baby, let me see you.

[renegadehero]

Ummm well the last thing I remember before waking up on that train was trying to break up a mugging.

[One of the thugs got lucky and elbowed her in the face.]

This is nothing though! I've had worse!

[All apart of the vigilante life style, right?]

[shebangin]

Ooh- a mugging? Tell me you stole 'em back in the face for that shit.

[Mm. She hasn't got a damn thing but her gloves to wipe this up with, and that material isn't good for it.]

Where can a girl find a first aid kit around here?

[renegadehero]

Kneed him in the balls! And I think Visual broke the guys nose while I was down since it was all bloody when I got him.

[Visual tended to do that when one of them got hurt.]

No idea, do train stations normally have first aide kits? Aw man where's Hunter or Firecracker when you need 'em... They've always got stuff.

[shebangin]

Ten points.

[A high five for you, Sparrow.]

I dunno. Metro's got first-aid stations, but I don't even see a station master around here.

[renegadehero]

[Awesome! High fives are the best.]

Yeah, doesn't look like anyone's around.

[Which is weird. Sparrow cocks her head to the side, like a lost puppy.]

Then again, this doesn't look like Applecrest at all... And considering I was just in a fight uh...

[Right. Where the hell were they...]

[shebangin]

Nena, I don't think either of us're in Kansas anymore. Mostly cos I'm from Baltimore. Ain't no Applecrest up that way.

[She crosses her arms, tapping her foot.]

How interested are you in figuring out where we are?

[renegadehero]

Considering I'll be grounded 'til I'm thirty-five if I don't get home? Pretty darn interested.

[The sixteen year old looks around, frowning as she tries to see if a conductor or someone's appeared. No luck, but she does spot one of the posters lining the platform.]

Ruby City..? You ever hear of that...

[Then she trails off, realizing she forgot something very important.]

Oh! Uh, I'm Sparrow!

[shebangin]

Sparrow, huh? Nice to meet you. I'm Shebang.

[A grin and a wink.]

I haven't heard of Ruby City, either. I'm from East Coast-- Maryland. Baltimore City.

Ruby City like... Virginia or something? [No, wait, that's Crystal City.]

[renegadehero]

Shebang?

[Weird name... Then again she is in spandex and-]

Wait, you a superhero?

[Forget Ruby City for the moment. This is an important question Sojourner needs to know.]

HERE WE GO BACK TO WORK

[shebangin]

You best believe I am.

Same as you, right?

[GRIN.]

AAW YEAH

[renegadehero]

Yeah! Er, well. Sorta!

[She makes a couple vague gestures as she talks.]

Visual likes to say we're more vigilantes 'cause we don't have any real superpowers. More like Batman 'cept we all still have our parents. Well. Hunter doesn't but- Yeah.
