NOV. TEST DRIVE

[missleadingquestions]

Sorry to be late this time!



G'day, Ruby City!

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: 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. Bad 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!

[Considering that Yang was always the protective big sister in the family, she's kind of used to being a little sister. So, no worries there.]

Well if that's the case, then have no fear! I can handle any kind of monster or Grimm or anything that comes our way with the help of Crescent Rose~!

[alwayskidnapped]

Ah, yes... I fear that I am a little useless when it comes to handling monsters. God did not grace me with the skills or power that he gave the rest of my family, I am afraid. My husband attempted to teach me once... it did not end well.

[ The memory has her cheeks flushing with embarrassment, but she smiles anyways, tilting her head slightly. ]

Who is Crescent Rose?

[ She obviously has no idea that Crescent Rose isn't a 'who' but a 'what'. ]

[ruby_roses]

Oh, trust me, I know how that feels. I was a complete klutz before my uncle Qrow took me in and spent the better part of three years training me non-stop.

[At the question, though, she beams as she reaches back to her hip, pulls the large lump of metal from its place, and just spins it casually in her hand as it begins to unfold into the massive High Velocity Sniper Scythe that is Crescent Rose. Once in its full form, she allows the weight of the blade to take over and sends the tip of the blade digging a gash into the ground.]

Meet Crescent Rose. My pride and joy.

[alwayskidnapped]

I... tend to get in the way more than help, so my husband and sister more often than not leave me home.

[ Her job is to be sister, house wife, and someday mother -- nothing more, nothing less, and she is happy with that.

The look on her face must be priceless for a split second. Crescent Rose... sure looks like a giant fucking Death Scythe. She blinks and then tilts her head, examining the weapon in question. ]

I see! Did you make it yourself?

[ruby_roses]

[She nods, hefting the weapon out of the ground and over her shoulder with ease.]

Yup. Designed and built her myself. Uncle Qrow helped forging the metal plates and all, but otherwise, it was all me.

[alwayskidnapped]

My, you are not only beautiful, but brave and intelligent too!

[ Yeah, Ruby is DEFINITELY Maria reincarnate. She half wishes her sister were here right now to meet Ruby, her husband as well -- she's certain they'd both adore her. ]

[ruby_roses]

[Her face turns about the same shade as her cloak at that.]

N-naw, I'm not that good looking. I mean, Yang has always been the pretty one...

[alwayskidnapped]

No, no, my dear. You're very lovely! Have you a suitor~? I'm certain all of the young men must chase after you relentlessly!

[ Yesss. Tell big sister Annette all about your boyfriends and love interests. ]

[ruby_roses]

[Annette, if Ruby had been drinking something, it'd be ALL OVER you by now.]

M-me!? No... they're always more interested in Yang. Besides, I'm two years younger than everyone at school so... that hasn't really been a... thing.

[alwayskidnapped]

[ How fortunate she is that Ruby wasn't drinking anything, then. Not that it would have made Annette mad or anything, at least. ]

Age does not matter! How old are you~? Why, I was married by the time I was nineteen... but that is what is considered normal where I am from.

[ruby_roses]

[There's a bit of a look of horror on Ruby's face at the prospect of getting married at 19.]

I-I'm only fifteen! I'm nowhere near ready for something like that! I have enough trouble just talking to boys...

[alwayskidnapped]

Oh~? Mm, I suppose my husband and I were just meant to be. We grew up together, although I must admit we did not always get along.

[ ...She remembers shoving Richter into mud and bushes and beating up on him. A lot. To the point where Juste had had to step in on more than one occasion to separate them... ]

...But obviously that changed somewhere along the line. I do wish he were here right now. We have already been separated for nearly three years... he had just returned home to me when I arrived here.
