rubycity_ooc | March Test Drive

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!

[train station]

[Stepping off the train, noting how primitive a method of transportation it is, and looking around, the android first takes the time to scan the immediate area for persons of interest.

Finding none of particular interest to her, she decides quickly that she'll have to settle for the next best thing: anybody passing by. Hopefully, they won't mind. Even though KOS-MOS doesn't particularly care whether they do or not.]

[library]

[This... is also primitive. Who reads books anymore? Except Jin and Junior. Still, she's at least courteous enough not to put them away haphazardly or throw them like Shion might, who in no way conceals her disdain for her brothers hobbies.]

[park]

[Feel free to find her carrying her arm, sparks of power flickering from her shoulder where it was torn off.]

[Troy watches from the top of the clocktower, being able to see the almost all of the city from there. He uses his suit's HUD to zoom in on anything that catches his interest, and after minutes of nothing he finally saw someone at the edge of the park. Curious, he increased the zoom to get a better look at this chick. He chuckles to himself to find out it was a robot as sparks flew from the severed arm.

He takes the pocketwatch to send an audio message. He's pretty good with gadgets, so he figured out how it worked pretty easily. He could just fly down there, but nah. He's not even sure if this is a trap or a hostile enemy. Better safe and mysterious than dead and sorry. His visor slides back automatically, revealing a smug grin on his face before he speaks up to the pocketwatch]

If you're a female of average height and build, blue hair, a tasteful futuristic unitard and a severed robotic arm, please look West of where you're currently standing.

[KOS-MOS stops, head turning to look west and vision focusing on the figure on the clocktower. The condition of her isn't an enormous concern for her since she can't feel anything. It's more an inconvenience than anything since that means she can only fight with one arm if the need arises.

Once her eyes are on him though, as a background function, she scans him before she flicks open her watch for a reply.]

Is there are reason for your communique?

[Troy chuckles. He didn't fully expect that to work, but he gives a little wave to Kos-Mos when he sees her look at him]

Wondering where you got that arm injury. I can help fix it in a snap if you'd be willing.

I fought what appeared to be a dragon. My tactical systems were not adjusted to face such a creature.

[It is now though. And there's a dragon carcass out in the field somewhere. Hopefully it won't cause TOO much of a smell. Maybe scavengers will take care of it before that happens though.]

If you can provide assistance, I would be grateful.

[Troy looks a bit more on the surroundings, seeing what looks like a carcass of a giant winged lizard. He nods, pouting his lower lip and hummed with an impressed tone]

Heard of 'em living in the mountains nearby. Didn't think they had the nads to attack the city, so this is a first... 'nyway, see that obelisk nearby? Rendezvous there, I don't trust that park even in the morning.

[Troy stands up with a sigh. He lunges forward with the help of the jetpack built in his armor, arriving at the obelisk in the city center within seconds in a stylish landing. Now out of his sight, he still has contact with her through the watches]

By the way, can ya eat human food?

[Being a person from an entirely different era with entirely different levels of science and technology, the young monk couldn't help but stare at KOS-MOS' appearance in awe and fascination. She... looked human, but she was also having some of an appearance of a highly designed Warforged.

These two things truly fueled his curiosity more and more, and eventually he realized that he had approached this person without even noticing it until she was REALLY close.]

Excuse me... are you lost, or trying to find something?

[KOS-MOS sets down the book she was examining before turning to face the other. He isn't anyone that she knows or has spoken with previously and not anyone recorded in her database.]

I am attempting to supplement my lack of data regarding this city and its occupants.

Oh, about that... I hope you didn't waste your time too much here, because there hasn't been any useful information in regards of this city or general location found in the library. Yet.

[He scratches the back of his head sheepishly as he says this, but it should be at least brought to her attention before she goes too deep, right?]

As for its occupants, I suppose asking for a census of the town may help you? Assuming if that is something you'd like to do, that is.

I have ample time to waste since I do not sleep or eat. And there may be information to gather based on what cannot be found in the library. For example, a lack of history regarding this city can lead to the assumption that something happened in that past that our captors are either ashamed of or assume can be used against them.

[Sorry, KOS-MOS can be set in her ways.]

I do intend to do so once my search here is complete.

[Someone who does not eat or sleep, huh? Well... that can be many things. But one thing for sure comes to mind is his next question:]

I see. I won't stop you until you feel satisfied in completing your task, but I hope you don't mind me joining you until your business is finished here? Given what you have just said earlier, am I right to assume that you are not human? Or at least a full human, rather.
