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!

Oh... [He hums pensively and taps his forefinger against his bottom lip.] No... I haven't ever heard of a drink named energon! I like red wine, that's yummy! Don't you want to try some? But maybe Prussia knows energon, he has a bar and they have all kinds of drinks there!

[He brightens again after all that hard important thinking.] If we're going to be friends I should know your name! You can't be friends with someone whose name you don't know... Ve~ you could be but you would be a bad friend! My name is Feliciano Vargas, I'm... [And here his boisterousness falters again as he is torn. Italy or North Italy? Which one is he? No matter which one he chooses, it feels wrong.] I'm Italy.

[No energon? Aw, smelt. Perhaps their kidnappers aren't as friendly as the human seems to think they are. He can be without energon for quite a while, but what the slag is he going to do the Solar cycle he needs fuel? Drink oil?

...ew.]

A bar? [Now, that's much better. Have a smiling mech.] I could give that a try. Been to most bars and pubs in the 'verse, anyway. Perhaps this Prussia wouldn't mind having me around.

[Ah, designations. Good things, those. He repeats the name, almost tasting it. It's a good one. It fits nicely. He grins, tilting his helm to the side, dipping it in a courtly manner. Charming, that he can be.]

The name's Devcon. [Italy? Hmm, would that be Feliciano's job description?] Not a Peace Marshal anymore, but a hunter still. Nice to meet you, Italy. [There's a slight questioning tone there, at the "Italy".]

[It never fails to take him by surprise when someone doesn't know about nations, he has become used to interacting with people who are used to them. After all it's impossible to go a day in Ruby City without encountering one of their kind. They and the trolls are by far the largest groups. Yet he notes the questioning tone, after all he has been trying his hardest to be more observant ever since Mister Austria explained reading the atmosphere to him.]

I'm a nation! A personified nation, I'm the personification of Italy! [He strikes a silly little pose, then giggles at himself.] Oh, when you were a Peace Marshal, did you wear a nice uniform? Was it blue? I wear a blue uniform at home... but it's at my brother's place now. He is... [He is South Italy, that is the southern half of Italy, the spiel continues normally. Now Feliciano trails off, his eyes flicker around uneasily.] His name is Lovino. Have you left family behind? My other brother's here, too. He's France.
