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!

Sesshoumaru || InuYasha || 3 - 1

[aristocratic_assassin]

[Never the talkative sort, Sesshoumaru has only found himself interested in idly exploring his surroundings. He's never seen buildings like this, and assumes that somehow, through some manner of bewitchment, he's been brought to the continent and away from all he finds familiar.

Of course, anyone would find him far from familiar in these surroundings. Sesshoumaru is not wearing anything at all modern, and in fact he looks as if he's fallen out of Feudal Japan. FUNNILY ENOUGH...

He didn't fall so much as glide down with complete and total poise and grace. Demons of his stature do not fall.

Good luck to anyone who approaches the silver-haired demon with the unimpressed look on his face, glancing up at the clocktower and wondering at its function. The symbols, and those long things affixed by the center...the had to mean something?

Sesshoumaru tended to lose himself to his thoughts at times. It didn't mean he wouldn't notice anyone approaching though.]

Yes you. C'mere.

[pretty_birdy]

[And lo and behold, here comes someone who may be his equal in appearance and elegance, were it not for the fact that Corbin were no demon. He certainly had the air of aristocracy about him, whether imagined or real. Sesshomaru was a bit taller than him, which immediately annoyed him, and those markings and the long white hair added a touch of beauty that he was nearly jealous of. He wasn't sure what to make of the large fur and armor on his shoulder, but the fact that he was missing an arm made Corbin feel as though he had the upper hand.

He approaches the other man (because demons? Surely those don't exist), and ponders over the pointed ears for a moment before speaking.]

Excuse me.

I am here forever

[aristocratic_assassin]

[Well the man was certainly an arm up on the situation...as far as anatomical symmetry. That's it. And also, he loses points for being anything but a youkai.

Nevertheless, Sesshoumaru does turn his attention to this newcomer who has addressed him. While it is subtle, he is inclining his head in a manner that can be perceived as condescending. It's carefully balanced with poised curiosity.

He doesn't have to speak. His eyes ask the question which is neither impolite, nor entirely well-mannered.

"What do you want?"]

[pretty_birdy]

[Corbin can read the expression - his own are also very slight. And he immediately feels disdain for the look he's given in return - the unspoken question gives Sesshomaru a level of arrogance that Corbin himself envies. To ask without speaking...

But he doesn't let his facial expression reflect this, naturally. He does pause, however, to stare back - brief enough to let Sesshomaru know he isn't intimidated.]

I'm afraid the train's let me off at the wrong station. By chance, do you know when the next one is?

[unit_202]

[202 can't help but notice what has to be a new arrival, the young man taking in the view of the clocktower like it's something wholly strange and new to him. Deciding that something like this warrants delaying her patrol of the city, the blonde approaches out of the shadowy cover granted by one of the city's many alleyways with a discreet clearing of her throat.]

Ah... Sir? Are you all right?

[At best, the poor fellow seemed shaken. At worst, however... Well, that much was hard to gauge in a place like this one.]

[aristocratic_assassin]

[To be fair, it is something entirely foreign to the dog demon. He turns to look at the woman who approaches him, curiosity still painting his features just as clearly as the markings on his cheeks and forehead.

Rarely has he come across a human with such a distinctly unhuman scent.]

You, girl. Tell me about this place.

[There's a sense that he has a high opinion of himself, and his appearance indicates he's entirely allowed to. But he still does come off as somewhat impolite. Sorry 202. You sure did pick a winner here.]

[unit_202]

[She always does seem to pick the "winners," around here. 202's prior expression of polite concern eases smoothly into something a little drier, unamused by the stranger's haughty demeanor and terse speech.]

It's a city. We're prisoners here.

[You want terse, mister? You got it. Rude wolf is rude.]
