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!

[Excuse you, these are top of the line, fresh from an exclusive shop in Paris robes. Not the rags that you're wearing. Could you be any more twenty-five years behind?

And besides, it would take a million years to outdo a Black-Malfoy child. Merlin, didn't anyone tell you?]

It must be a shame to have to be nice to those beneath you. Not that I know what that's like.

[snakesroarquietly]

Ah. [Regulus' brows arch. Well... This is something different.

He finds himself momentarily floundering and curses himself as soon as he realizes it. He shouldn't have let himself become complacent surrounded by Gryffindors.]

Of course you wouldn't know what that's like. Children are granted more liberties. [His tone of voice may be as pleasant as can be, but the hint of a sneer isn't quite so pleasant. The possible Malfoy may be his age, but Regulus recalls how important being accepted as an adult had been to him, before he started wishing he wouldn't have to carry adult responsibilities.]

[This... wasn't like dealing with his underlings. No, this is more like the banter he was used to having with Blaise and, on occasion, Theodore. It made his blood pump and he could feel a little flash of glee at the challenge.

Once a Snake, always a Snake, yes.]

I'm sure that you're intimately acquainted with the liberties granted children, but I've earned my right to disdain those around me.

[snakesroarquietly]

[Well parried, stranger. Regulus' lips twitch, though the sneer wins out.] Have you? [A bored drawl, oh, what a hardship it is to burden yourself with the concerns of your inferiors.] How, pray tell, have you earned this right again?

[He walks towards one of the small tables, though slowly so as to wordlessly invite Draco to accompany him.]

Forgive me if my views are outdated, but in my time genuine maturity had to be gained by your own merit, not awarded as a birthday present. But... [He shrugs.] Muggle habits keep taking over, I wouldn't be surprised if this has changed as well.
