July Test Drive!

[rubycitymods]

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!

[Accept being stuck. Damn, this conversation wouldn't go well, not that he expected it to.]

I keep trying. Some leave, but no one knows what causes that.

But by all means, I'm sure you can solve it within an hour.

[doeeyed]

...They just disappear? No word or anything?

[Even as the child of muggles, Lily's spent enough time growing up in the wizarding world during the war to know that disappearances of an unexplained nature are never good.]

Well someone needs to. We can't just stay here.

[alwaysimpure]

Sometimes they come back.

It's limbo. [He's not in the greatest of moods, as recent stays at Azkaban are prone to render someone.]

[doeeyed]

[She rolls her eyes at the slight melodramatics.]

Oh come off it, it's not like we're dead. What have you even be doing all this time, if you've decide you're stuck here?

[alwaysimpure]

[WORD CHOICE, word choice, Lily. Right in his heart.

'It's not as like we're dead.'

He was almost tempted to laugh, but he had a feeling it wouldn't be the kind of laugh she'd be used to hearing, so instead he just shakes his head.]

I try to get back. Unfinished business, you understand.

[doeeyed]

Like what exactly?

[Consider her still unimpressed with the nonchalant routine there Black.]

[alwaysimpure]

[Like being in Azkaban. Hoping to escape one day so he could hunt down Peter. Keep Harry safe. Her son.

Damn.

In the end he just shrugs.]

Marauder business.

[doeeyed]

[She sighs, rolling her eyes.]

Of course, how could I forget your ragtag little club. I can't imagine how many important tasks you must be missing. How will the Slytherins survive without being hung upside down by you and your band of friends?

[alwaysimpure]

By doing much worse than hanging people upside down.

[Like being evil Death Eaters. His world view is a lot more black and white than he likes to pretend.]

You know that.

[doeeyed]

[She swallows hard, looking a little hurt.]

They're not all like that. You can't just assume, then you're no better than them.

[alwaysimpure]

Oh, I'm related to most of them. It goes a bit beyond assumptions.

Perhaps no better, but better prepared.

[Way too serious, without any pun, and so he shakes his head.]

Do you have a place to stay at yet? [A small hesitation.] Evans?

[doeeyed]

[She still looks likes she wants to challenge his point, but thinking about it only seems to conjure up memories of old former friends, so she drops it.]

...I can't say that I do. I didn't think I would have to stay very long.

[alwaysimpure]

Come with me. There's room where I'm staying.

[He hesitates for a moment, frowning.]

Fair warning. My brother is staying there too and he's...

If he says anything I'll hex his arse into next week if you're not faster. [Credit where credit is due.]

[doeeyed]

[Her first gut reaction is to quickly reject the offer, but she thinks about her realistic options, about who she really knows in the city.]

Only for a night or two. I'll find own lodgings after that.

[She cracks a small smile at that.] I'll hold you to it.

[alwaysimpure]

[He wants to hug her and tell her that he'd never let her leave, but he decides that might not be the best approach, so instead he just nodded and got up, swallowing thickly once he'd turned his back to her.]

You'll like the living room. Regulus hates it.

[doeeyed]

[She looks interested, a small laugh escaping her.]

Oh, am I sleeping there then? What on earth did you do to it, to the point where your brother hates it?
