rubycity_ooc | August 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!

The sound of the voice was so familiar, it made Ten's hearts stop for a moment. His eyes widened at the figure who was running towards him.

"Donna?"

[The relief that swept through her was strong enough that Donna stumbled for a moment, and then she was back on firm footing.]

Talk later, Spaceman! C'mon!

[Those wolf-creatures just didn't seem to be giving up. But at least she'd found the Doctor. That was something, anyway.]

[Ten looked at what she was running from and saw the danger and took off after her. He had to laugh.]

What are you doing...oh never mind. Where did you spring from?

[Hearing the laugh, Donna glanced over at him. A moment later, she was joining in, relaxing at the sight of his amusement. Some things never changed.]

Where do you think? I was on this train, and then I got off. How'd I end up on a train, anyway? It wasn't like the Library, was it? You didn't send me somewhere... weird... did you?

Where were you before you found yourself on the train?

[He wondered what point in their travels he came from, since he knew far too much about her future already.]

With you, of course.

[Donna glanced over at the Doctor in seeming annoyance that faded as she thought about the answer more.]

Except... I don't really remember getting on that train. Something must have happened. This doesn't feel right.

Where were we before you were on the train?

[Donna eyed the Doctor sideways, something faintly suspicious in her gaze.]

The last I remember, we'd finished up at Midnight. That ... thing didn't do something to you, did it? Steal something when it took your voice?

[As she spoke, the suspicion shifted to worry.]

[Ohhhhhhh, he remembered that with clarity.]

Naaaaaaaaaah. Shaken but not stirred as they say.

[Donna remained quiet for a bit after that, speaking up only once the wolf-creatures had finally given up. When they could stand still and look at each other, though, she had to speak up again.]

Really, though, Doctor... what happened? Did you drop me off at the train station or something? Was I teleported in? I can't remember.

I had nothing to do with the train station. I found myself there, same as you, months ago having no idea how I got there either.

August Test Drive!
