DEC. TEST DRIVE

[rubycitymods]

It's that time again!



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!

[TOO LATE YOU CAN'T STOP HIM. He just huffs indignantly, as much as it's raining it's not like anyone can tell the difference. Though, to be honest, he's surprised he didn't end up with a sword in his gut. Maybe they've both calmed down a bit at this stage.]

Like I would.

[You are the worst bullshitter Dante no one believes you ever.]

Go on, have fun with your mountain. Try not to get buried, I'd hate to have to dig you out.

[Flawlessly covered up there.]

[bloodright]

Please. You've always been so sentimental. I would hate to get into trouble and cause you more grief. Fortunately I'm not like you, nor would I fall so easily.

[He glances back, pushing his hair away again. And quickly turns his back again. Even with the rain he can't be too careful.

He curses under his breath. Why must he still be so human.]

[stylish_hunter]

Pfeh. Whatever you say.

[Still going to count not getting a sword though his gut as a win. He's about to leave him to it, but he does notice that pause.]

What's the matter?

[There's nothing wrong with being human :<.]

[strikeoflightning]

When I serve Etro... {So he's from the future. Lightning relaxes her guard a little.} Fang told me. I just woke up from Crystal Stasis.

{She nods towards the city.} This city isn't connected to Gran Pulse or Cocoon. It just brings us here on the train.

{And it's confusing, she knows.}

Serah isn't here. It's only Fang and I from our world.

[bloodright]

Nothing.

[Because that's totally not suspicious.]

[stylish_hunter]

[Oh look he's wearing your dry disbelieving face is it like a scruffy mirror Vergil? Because it should be.]

Really.

[Very convinced.]

[flame_fossil]

Trying to get out of a dream? What do you-

[And then she said his name. How did she know his name? He tilted his head, eyes a bit narrowed and on guard.]

Yeah, I am. Whose asking?

[bloodright]

[Don't you look at him with that face. Especially after defiling it with scruff.]

What are you badgering me for? Open your ears.

[flame_fossil]

[Well, that explained things. And saved him the trouble of trying to figure out if it would be a good idea to tell her the future. Still, at least Lightning wasn't as suspicious about him anymore.]

It's not? I guess that explains how I got from the Historia Crux to the train without remembering... but why only me? Serah and I were both there and-

[He broke off with a frustrated sigh. He just wanted to make sure she was still okay. What if she had a vision and he wasn't there? He couldn't do anything either way but still.]

So what am I suppose to do in the meantime?

[stylish_hunter]

[You're just jealous of the rockstar cowboy hobo look.]

Uh-huh.

[Still unconvinced. There's a few moments longer before he finally turns around and trudges up behind him.]

Well?

[Yeah he's going to follow you now. See what you've done.]

[bloodright]

Well what?

You're following me now? Childish, Dante.

[stylish_hunter]

Are you going to go or are you going to keep complaining?

[raindownthesky]

[So here was the man responsible for getting Serah to her sister. She smiles.]

Fang.

[bloodright]

I don't need a tag along.

[stylish_hunter]

Fine, I didn't want to be stuck in the rain all night anyway.

[Are you stalling? He just can't tell what you're doing right now Vergil what is your deal.]

[flame_fossil]

[Welp, he was definitely not expecting Fang here. Wasn't she suppose to be in crystal stasis? Still, he was glad for some sort of familiarity. After he gets over the shock, he returns the smile.]

Good to finally meet you, then.

[bloodright]

[Another scoff and he starts walking.]

Fine. If you insist. So long as you don't hold me back.

[stylish_hunter]

[That's better.]

Pfeh, don't worry about me, just worry about keeping up.

[Back to arrogant, everything is normal. Excellent.]

[bloodright]

Are you looking for a competition now?

[He smirks. Maybe not quite so much as he normally would, but it's enough.]

[stylish_hunter]

I don't know, you feeling up for it?

[Nah, it's good. It's a good start. Familiar things are nice, especially after so long.]

[bloodright]

When have I not.

[This is also about the only way he knows how to say 'I still love you bro']

[raindownthesky]

Likewise. Didn't think I'd get to talk to you, though. Crystal stasis is a hell of a theater...

[flame_fossil]

I thought you were sleeping? Serah said it was like that.

[Along with being incredibly lonely. Something he knew a lot about.]

[stylish_hunter]

Good, I was starting to worry you'd lost your fight.

[And that's all he really wants. He loves you too, always has.]

[bloodright]

Never. Now the question is, what are we competing with.

[Back home he might've suggested a body count on demons, but, well.]
