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:
  • Use an RNG to choose a location and prompt, or wait for someone else to tag.

  • Post with your character with their name and canon on top!

  • 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 - The place where everyone gets dumped off at. Your first view of Ruby City, complete with informational posters telling you all about where you've ended up.
2. THE BEACH - Lovely year-round, though in the winter months, you're probably not likely to dip your toes in.
3. THE BLACK STALLION - A rather quaint bar. Supposedly, the burgers are great, but you don't see anyone immediately who's willing to serve you. Maybe you're meant to get it yourself.
4. THE OBELISK - The tall monolith in the center of the city marks the gathering place of many events, though right now it seems to be cold and dark.
5. THE CLOCKTOWER - Offering an impressive view of the city, several residents come here to clear their heads, if they don't mind braving the narrow staircase.
6. THE COFFEE JOINT - the front windows are warm and welcoming, and it seems there's always someone friendly enough to fix you a cup when you wander through.
7. THE CATACOMBS - Intrepid, aren't you? Those weird holes may beg exploring, but go too deep and you're going to be in a lot of trouble, considering the viciousness of the creatures held within.
8. THE CITY STREETS - All told, Ruby City is a lovely place, once you get past the fact that several of the buildings look derelict and on the verge of falling down. There's no harm in doing a little sightseeing.
9. THE PARK - You thought it'd be a lovely stroll, but the park is anything but friendly, if those approaching wolf-like creatures are any indication.
10. CHOOSE YOUR OWN - Don't like what we've come up with? Feel like picking your own place? There's a whole host of lovely locations to choose from in the City.


Scenarios


1. NEW ARRIVAL - Step off that train, walk down the street. People usually latch on to newcomers to try and help them out. Even if you look shy, the other residents probably won't be!
2. WATCH TALK - Feeling lost? Disoriented? Don't worry, everyone feels that way on their first day. Fortunately - if the signs at the station are to believed - the watch in your pocket can be used to talk to whoever else might be here.
3. BAD WEATHER - Aw, man. Whether it's snow, or rain, or just plain cold, today was definitely the wrong day to get dumped off in a City in the middle of nowhere.
4. A RUN-IN - Maybe you weren't watching. Maybe they weren't. Either way, you just bumped into someone. Perhaps apologies are in order?
5. HELP, IT HURTS - Clumsy, aren't you? Perhaps wherever the train brought you from wasn't so friendly, or you just tripped and twisted your ankle. Either way, you're in a bit of pain. Hopefully someone will notice your booboos and help patch you up.
6. HUNGRY - It isn't very obvious sometimes that restaurants are what they are, especially in a place like Ruby City. Where can a person go to get a bite to eat around here?
7. MISTAKEN IDENTITY - Hey, there's someone you know! --Or maybe not.
8. BEING FOLLOWED - Maybe you're just being paranoid, or maybe you've got a reason to be afraid. Whatever it is, it feels like there's eyes on you...
9. CURRENT EVENTS - None at the moment, but feel free to look through our event tag!
10. CHOOSE YOUR OWN - Don't like any of these ideas? Feel free to come up with your own!

[Imagine Teddy's pleasure when he learns that said ghost of Loki's conscience is in town as well. Loki might be less happy about it, but only just.

Loki's not terribly surprised - though he is dismayed - when Teddy goes green and bulks up immediately upon seeing him. He spreads his hands and raises them to shoulder height, though this might not be the most reassuring sight, considering he's got Mjolnir in one of those hands]


I promise, Teddy, this time I'm as much of a victim of this as you are. I understand that you might not believe me, but things have changed - a spell has rendered me incapable of lying.
notasaviour: (green - irritated)

I wonder... XD

[personal profile] notasaviour 2015-03-02 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
[...yeah, like Teddy's going to trust that one. Although...]

Is that seriously Mjolnir?

[Because although Teddy's not as big a Norse fanboy as Billy, he knows what Mjolnir looks like. He's seen it up close in person once or twice, and he's seen it on the wikipedia way more times than that.]

Don't take this the wrong way, but you're still Loki. Why should I believe anything you say?
slashupontheinternet: (Determined (Worthy))

[personal profile] slashupontheinternet 2015-03-03 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Loki grinned, eyes bright, but with more genuine pleasure than the mischief that would have normally been there]

The one and only. You don't understand, and that's natural - a spell was cast on me, which has turned me into a true hero. I'm worthy of wielding Mjolnir, and now possess the power of Thor, while my brother's been rendered unworthy.

[He shrugs faintly, and holds up the hammer] I know nothing I say will truly make any difference, but this is the proof, is it not?
notasaviour: (green - unsure - :/)

[personal profile] notasaviour 2015-03-03 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
["A spell was cast on me" really isn't making Teddy any more comfortable. Not with Loki, not with being here.

...Also that is a very, very strange expression to see on Loki. That might even be the creepiest bit of all of it.]


So you're telling me you can't lie because of a spell, and you've switched places with your brother because of a spell... how many spells are you under? And what happens if they wear off?

[He folds his arms, not entirely willing to back down from being defensive.]

There's one thing you could say that would make a difference.
slashupontheinternet: (Eyeroll)

[personal profile] slashupontheinternet 2015-03-05 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
It's just one spell. [He rolls his eyes] I suppose if it ever does wear off, I'll go back to being the nefarious trickster that I was before. But it's been a few months, and it hasn't happened yet, so I don't believe that's likely.

What is that?
notasaviour: (human - surprised - headtilt)

[personal profile] notasaviour 2015-03-05 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
And you don't want it to wear off?

[Now that is strange.

He shakes his head, slightly, and looks straight at Loki.]


You could say you're sorry.
slashupontheinternet: (Krakoooooom! (Worthy))

[personal profile] slashupontheinternet 2015-03-06 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Why would I want that? I died, in a likely futile effort to become more like this. [Loki spread his hands wide] I'm a hero now, worthy of this hammer, and so many other things.

[He met Teddy's gaze unflinchingly] I was sorry, even then. Why do you think I threw you that party? And naturally I wouldn't do such a thing now.
