rubycity_ooc | December 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 Beach: You can almost forget you're trapped, in a place like this...

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. The Forest: Not a great place to be caught alone, but are you alone?

8. Wildcard: Pick anything from our list!

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!

Hanna hadn't had all those new consoles growing up, and even now when he was an adult, he still stuck true to his Nintendo 64. It was his baby, and even though Smash bros and Mario Kart were his playing ground, that definitely did not mean he hadn't picked up a Zelda or two along the way. They were great, he loved the story, and the puzzles were fun, even if the water temple was like, the worst thing in existence.

But, stepping into the Cathedral because it's a little weird to see the door slightly ajar, he has to pause. And unlike most video game characters who he tended to freak out about, in a positive way, because how cool was that, he just stops, mouth wide open. Because man, no. He did not just walk in on the fucking evil gerudo king with the triforce of power, all on his lonesome. Right? That wasn't a thing he just did?

"Fucking really? REALLY?" He had shit luck. He swears somewhere someone from above was like, pissing themselves laughing.

In the resonant silence of the Cathedral's open spaces... Hanna's voice definitely carried.

Ganondorf's head turned, and even without context, the difference in size between them was more than enough to make his intimidating stare even more imposing. Sadly, Hanna, it is absolutely a thing you just did.

And then you swore at him.

...he's still staring.

Hanna shrinks against the door, swallowing. Well, he probably could have kept that to himself. Probably. Maybe he could have avoided the whole confrontation in general if he had kept his giant, idiot mouth shut. "Uh. Sorry, I just. Eheh...prefer to pray alone. Yanno? Empty church, then I don't have to share what ever kind of god is up there."

Because that's definitely how praying worked. "You got anything on your heavenly wishlist? I've been just devotedly worshiping to get my 'perfect sense of timing' badge."

.......

God? Not Goddess? Or gods?

"If I'm in your way...." Ganondorf turned fully to face Hanna, his posture erect but relaxed. He did notice that the man was shrinking into the doorframe. It was kind of hard to miss, actually. He knew he tended to have an effect on people, but this was a little extreme. It would have been comical if it wasn't so disconcerting and pathetic. He paused, listening while Hanna finished.

"....then it seems you still have some praying to do."

He'd offer to leave, but he wasn't done here yet. And he wasn't interested in vacating the building for a rambling twit.

As a newcomer, this man would just have to wait.

Thinking back, Hanna can totally see how that is exactly what he said, just worded differently. Shit. "Naw, naw. It was-" Not a joke because that would totally mean the swearing when he came in meant something else. "Well kind of. Just, you don't have to leave, that'd be rude if I expected you to." God, he was stuck in a stupid trap of words while stuck in a gaze from an evil berserker wizard. There was no winning here, only losing horribly.

Maybe if he pulled out his watch he'd have time to text something kind of meaningful to the network before dying if this turned south...

"Yeah, loads of it. While devoted, no one ever said my worshiping sounded any good." he laughs nervously, "You'd think they'd want to hear less if you sound awful, but. I suppose not."

Well. Ganondorf and Hanna were in agreement on one thing. Regardless of the gods' opinion, Ganondorf at least would rather be hearing less of the man.

"I wasn't planning on it." He felt no obligation to spare Hanna's feelings, but at least Hanna could rest assured that the giant Gerudo was being honest with him. Small comfort, perhaps, but Ganondorf wasn't generally a comforting figure. Especially not to anyone outside of the Gerudo.

It came with the job, so to speak.

While he was here, though--he might as well get some answers to his questions.

"Indulge my curiosity a moment... who are you praying to exactly?"

He swallows, taking that extra moment to consider who exactly he was praying to. He's not exactly the religious type. "Uh, the powers that be? I don't really have a name for them, or him. Or her. Which ever. I mean, I could probably pick one, but I don't think that'd help my cause very much."

He shrugs awkwardly, trying to relax a little since he was starting to think maybe if he kept him talking he wouldn't be murdered horribly. Helpful is much better than dead, he's sure. "Uh, anything else you'd like to know? I mean, you're probably new around here, right?"

December Test Drive!

Part of me feels like I should apologize for this...

Never apologise. This is beautiful.

Fan art saves me when it's hard to get actual canon stuff.
