Test Drive meme

THE TEST-DRIVE MEME!

1. Using a journal of a character you've considered apping in Ruby City, post a comment as if they're already in the game! It can be audio/video, accidental/on purpose, intro/been there for ages.

2. Tag around with others--potential characters or characters who are already in the game--to see how well they fit.

3. Get a better idea of how well they'd work out in Ruby City, and app or not app accordingly!

why hello there! :3

[Kirei looks up immediately at the sound of the voice, then studies the figure he finds there, returning the gaze with calm interest. This is the first person who's addressed him, so he's curious.]

The posters, yes. I did begin there. The answers were incomplete, unsatisfactory. [And he's not about to believe what he reads on a poster.]

And you are?

Ahshfdjs you have no idea how surprised I am to see you here :0

[personal profile] loveidea 2012-08-26 12:03 pm (UTC)(link)
About as good as explanations go in this place, I'm afraid.

[He's not happy with it either.

Not much that can be done though. That's the answers they have, and this is the situation they're in.
]

... My name is Sariel. Another captive of this city.

haha, someone on plurk linked here so I thought I'd give it a shot!

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2012-08-26 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
An inexplicable phenomenon, I see.

[He's familiar with the unfamiliar. He nods acknowledgement, then offers his own name.]

Kirei Kotomine.

[He acts as if he has conversations with strange men standing on rooftops often, and this isn't far from being the truth.]

An interesting name, Sariel.

[He hasn't forgotten his youth as a Biblical scholar. Sariel is an interesting man, too. There's an air about him...]

Are there many captives here?

Yes good |: Join us ~ XD

[personal profile] loveidea 2012-08-26 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I could say the same to you. [He's never heard a name like Kirei Kotomine before. It's... Unusual, to say the least. Not that he really cares or anything, he rarely ever does these days.]

Sariel is hardly that interesting of a name. [He takes pride in his name, but...

That aside though...;
] Quite a few, I believe. Though I haven't concerned myself with an exact number.
seeyousuffer: (20)

I am tempted! :3

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2012-08-27 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He inclines his head, his eyebrows rising slightly, admitting his name isn't common. But then, neither is Sariel's. People are named after Michael, Raphael, Gabriel--not Sariel.

And his eyes are golden. He's certainly not a Servant, but Kirei wonders what he is.
]

It's not a name I've often heard outside of Biblical texts.

[It's an odd situation, people being brought to what seems to be an entirely different reality. A Reality Marble? Who--or what--could be responsible?]

Is it known why we were brought here? Or by whom?

Good! |: XD

[personal profile] loveidea 2012-08-28 01:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sariel leaves that topic alone. He doesn't think that biblical text would have anything good in it about him and thus, doesn't feel like discussing it even if it is just the topic of his name alone at the moment. He'd rather not go deeper into the subject.]

Your guess is as good as mine. [He makes a dismissive gesture.]

To be rats in a maze is my favorite. [Only not really. In fact, for him it has been going from one prison to the next which really still just enrages him. There might be a level of freedom in this prison, but that doesn't make it any less of one.]

A group of seven, I've heard. Though I'm not entirely sure who they are.

[personal profile] seeyousuffer 2012-08-29 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
[Kirei doesn't pursue the subject, though he doesn't forget. He wonders what, precisely, Sariel is.]

I don't doubt you have more to base your conclusions on, at this point. [Having only just arrived, his information is limited.]

Is that what it's like, then? Are we the experimental animals?

[A group of seven? He'd been part of a group of seven--of sorts. But not a group that was working together. Part of him senses that this has little, if anything, to do with the Grail War. When he tries to call for Assassin, Assassin doesn't come. No one has tried to kill him yet, which wouldn't be the case if this was the doing of another Master. He doesn't sense any immediate danger.

Yet he doesn't enjoy being confined, either, and he certainly doesn't seem pleased.
]

Powerful beings who can create a Bounded Field like this and draw people in... I wouldn't say that such entities are common. [Yet if they are capable of something like this, surely they can disguise their identities.] Our presence here must benefit them.

[personal profile] loveidea 2012-08-29 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That we are. [At least that was what it felt like.

Not that he had been here long enough for any bad thing to happen to him personally, but that trip to the catacombs was one he could have done without. He's already frustrated enough. The people here should probably be happy that he was becoming good at reigning in his rage.

As for the mention of such entities being uncommon, he simply shrugs his shoulders. He's not the best person to judge on that all things considered.
] Probably. Though it seems to have no rhyme nor reason most of the time.

I see.

[He frowns, pensive.] I imagine they utilize our energy, if nothing else.

I don't intend to be someone's experiment. I must return to my duties.

[He turns toward the cathedral again. It was always in the Church that he found his allies, but more than that, it is to God that he looks for guidance.]

Do you know if there is a priest? A congregation?

[personal profile] loveidea 2012-09-03 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
If it helps, I've heard rumors that time is at a stand-still while we are here, so at the very least you won't be missed.

[Ignore the complete lack of enthusiasm in his voice.

When the other looks toward the cathedral, he turns his attention that way as well.
] I'm not aware of whether or not a priest is present, though belief in God seems to be somewhat limited here.

[There's Enoch of course- Sariel doesn't count him in this, the other Angels as well as his fellow Fallens don't count...

Other than that though? He's not heard anything at least. But then, he hasn't been paying much attention.

That would be convenient.

[It strikes him as a little too convenient, so he doesn't sound particularly impressed or convinced. Yet he supposes it is possible. It would be preferable. The war, now that it's begun, will be of limited duration--how limited depends on all those involved. It will likely be weeks, but how many? Not long at all in the grander scheme of things.]

Those without faith are always numerous. I will have to see for myself, then. If there is not a priest now, there will be.

[Wherever he has gone in his life, he has striven to do God's will. Even though His will is not always clear, God does make Himself known in many ways.]
