Test Drive Meme: The Overflow, Part Deux!


CITY OF ARIEL: THE TEST DRIVE
THE OVERFLOW, PART DEUX!


Since the last post is again fast approaching 3k comments and getting laggy for some of our players, we have decided to go ahead and stick up the overflow post, even though there's just a little over a week to game start.

Please continue your threads or start new ones here if you'd like. To make this easier on those continuing threads from the last meme, here's a handy form:



Please remember to let your thread partners know you've bumped your threads over here as well! We started the meme early to give you plenty of room to do just that.

◆◆◆◆


With the City of Ariel grand opening only a month away, we are holding our first ever test drive meme. Tag in and see how your character would settle in the game. You're a fresh face in the city, newly processed, and arriving at a bustling time. The city is expanding and you are greeted first in the re-education center by your helpful counselors and then directed out of the building to a large festival.

Be puzzled, make friends, have sex, or whatever you want! There are no restrictions on thread types played out here.
Your first awareness that something has gone wrong comes during a groggy moment of semi-lucidity when you look around yourself and find that -- instead of wherever you remember being last -- you're in a chair, in a room with a man you don't recognize. He's sitting behind a desk whistling to himself and sorting paperwork. The whole atmosphere might remind you of a high school guidance counselor's office, only with far more comfortable chairs.

When your head clears enough to speak and you ask him where you are, he smiles brightly and says, "Welcome to the City of Ariel."

You were brought to Ariel during a very special time! There's a large festival going on celebrating the new expansions to the city and everything is decked out for it. Everything is bustling and vibrant in the city today because of the celebrations. There are decorations up, food vendors set up all along the streets, kissing booths, games, and just about anything else you can imagine an event like this would have!

The people of Ariel are out and about as well, some are in vibrant costumes and others are just checking out the sights. Some of the more exhibitionist types are even having a little more fun out in public than you may be used to seeing back home.

As soon as the grogginess from your arrival passes, you are allowed to leave the re-education center and see it all for yourself. Upon exiting, you are even handed beads of various colors, several of each so you don't worry about running out.

Each color has a special meaning listed below:
pink - toys
blue - oral
yellow - watersports
green - age play
lavender - crossdressing
orange - multiples
grey - bondage
white - hands (mutual masturbation, fingering, handjob)
red - blood
black - wildcard

These are to aid you in making a connection with others. Show your interest in others and tell them exactly what you would like to do with them by sharing the beads.

If you would rather take a different approach, feel free to walk around the festival and see what (or who) catches your eye. The point is to relax and get settled in your new home.

TAG IN
- Post your character's name, canon, and preferences.
- Set up an opener in your comment or leave it blank.
- Tag around and have fun!

It's...nice. It's big. It used to be seven kingdoms but now it's just one. [ Hesitantly, hesitantly. Maybe he doesn't know of Westeros and doesn't want to - they've not got much there in the name of chicken dresses. ]

Hook, line, and sinker.

"It was an accident! I've never touched a girl like that in my life!"

These were words that any average teenage boy would never have uttered even if they were true. Silver, on the other hand, says them with great confidence.

"Why? Are we contagious? Or are you into guys? S'cool if you are, you know. I mean, everyone's got their own thing. I guess you are easily excitable enough..."

Sounds like the Republic. We've got a load of Provinces that used to be seperate.

[It doesn't take too long for Elena to find her way to something more interesting to her, as much as she would deny she did anything really questionable... Well, a bar was always a good place to find information, at least.

Thus she took towards one of the back tables, listening intently to the conversations going on around her. Focus was on that and not the actions of the people, even though her eye was trained enough to know when one was moving to brandish a weapon. Nothing of that type had popped up just yet, just idiots pawing at each other and thinking that it was such a grand idea to proposition someone with those damned beads.

Nor had there been any useful information so far, even if she'd paused upon one conversation in particular. It hadn't been information, per say, but she couldn't help but be interested in these supposed exploits someone had been in. Blood, fear, weapons all combined into a nice and neat little package of debauchery. That really shouldn't have caught her attention as much as it had.

Grumbling to herself she took a small sip from her water, having already finished her recent glass of scotch.]

[The touch is light, but it's enough to get Mello to respond with anticipation — something he notes begrudgingly. He doesn't tense up at the contact, but he doesn't return the touch, either — just lets Dean run his hand up and down his arm as they head inside. He wants to approach this from a business frame of mind — looking at the pending event as though it is an obstacle that he needs to overcome, rather than an undertaking based solely on pleasure.

He takes the liberty of requesting a room once they are inside, and as they walk down the hall, Mello finally responds to Dean's comment.]


Just don't expect me to hold your hand or cuddle after.

[Dean doesn't seem like that type, but Mello puts it on the table regardless.]

"No I'm not into guys!" he quickly replied, "Like I said, doing stuff like that's a waste of time! I've got more important things to do."

[There's a man wandering down your streets, Ariel, looking all too happy to be here. He's dressed in jeans, a green shirt, leather waistcoat and boots, looking like quite the stereotypical white trailer trash image.

He's even singing quietly to himself. He really seems happy to be here.]
meanlook: (Do I stress you out?)

Can you handle TWO Pokemon characters?

[personal profile] meanlook 2012-10-24 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[The sound that escapes Silver's mouth when he's grabbed is so childish it's embarrassing. His body tenses up when he realizes how strong the arm around his waist is, but he's quick to put on his usual tough exterior. He narrows his eyes and grits his teeth, trying for all the world to make his puny self look intimidating.]

Let me go. I'm not interested in your weirdo party!
makinuscream: ([fan] happy - i got u)

[personal profile] makinuscream 2012-10-24 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Luckily(?) the man in question coming down the street from the opposite way doesn't know what stereotypical white trailer trash should or shouldn't look like. He is carrying a fan though and lazily brushing it by his face as he looks around, at ease but maybe curious as well. A hat - green and white striped - obscures his face as the haori covers most of the rest of him.

However the song catches his attention and Urahara's head rolls in the mans direction. Grin in place. Fan pausing. ]


Catchy.
americanpie: (smirk)

[personal profile] americanpie 2012-10-24 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Glad ya think so.

[Chick pauses in his walk to grin back.]

One of my favourite songs.
wantitall: (shit eating grin)

I think I can manage that~

[personal profile] wantitall 2012-10-24 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Look tough all you want, Silver, it's just making Greed grin even wider. Getting all flustered like that is a cute look on him, and Greed is happy to keep his arm right where it is for the moment, looming over the redhead effortlessly.]

You sure? Come on, kid, I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun if you just try~
meanlook: (Sass mouth.)

[personal profile] meanlook 2012-10-24 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not a kid!

[Ever getting himself into situations where he bites off more than he can chew, when his attempts to struggle out of Greed's grip fail, he decides to try a sharp kick in the leg.]
wantitall: (uhhhhh)

[personal profile] wantitall 2012-10-24 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Really?

[Sadly you're going to have to try harder if you want to really hurt Greed. He may not have his Shield anymore, but he's still much bigger and much stronger. If anything Greed's fingers just start to slide under Silver's shirt.]

Because you're acting awful bratty. Want me to teach you some manners?

[Elena was typically not one to like contact unless she knew the person in question, even then she was very picky about how things went. Hell, even in her time dealing with a particular touchy co-worker she could not take every little bit of contact that came with it. Thus the arm sliding around her waist gets her to pause, running through the list of people it could have been, but coming up with no answer. Someone new and different, well, she didn't expect for this place to not have people getting touchy-feely with her.

A light smirk played on her lips as she hears the words, glancing to her side at the person who found it a good idea to be physical with her. Out of habit and being particularly wary her hand slipped under her suit jacket to just above her waist, hand gripping the pistol grip.]


I suggest you remove your hand before I remove it for you. [Her voice remains soft and even, though with a bit of forcefulness behind it.]
rookie_turk: (Glasses/hm?)

[personal profile] rookie_turk 2012-10-24 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Elena had, by this point, figured that nothing would really surprise her anymore. She'd seen some particularly strange things back in her home both on and off duty and even then some of the monsters that roamed outside of the cities really made no sense. It was just something you never questioned unless you wanted a question with absolutely no answer to be found. Though she took pause at the voice nearby, processing the words slowly before laughing behind her hand.]

This place wouldn't know the definition of efficiency by any means, but it wouldn't be a city of pleasure if it did. Can't really regulate this kind of thing, can you?

[Turning to where the voice came from she gave pause, raising a brow in question. Well, that was certainly different. She wasn't scared or had any feeling to flee, she'd seen creatures speak when there really shouldn't have been any way to. Then there'd been other beasts and things of that nature that were just as sentient as the rest of them were, no reason to question it.]

Surprised no one's gone running or given you a wide berth, humans seem to be the vast majority of this place.

The earplugs worked, at least somewhat, or else he'd be in a whole lot of screaming pain at the moment. He was just having trouble getting the fine tuning to cooperate. After a bit more of fighting he finally seemed to relax somewhat, antennae finally lifting up to feel through the air.

That was when he finally noticed the strange person. Was that a human? Not that it mattered, he was being stared at and he didn't like it.

"Can I help you?" Despite his harshness, his voice was very soft, like he was forcing a whisper.
cawfullyironic: (confused: fuck the what now?)

can he break the 4th wall if pokemon comes up?

[personal profile] cawfullyironic 2012-10-24 05:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Dunno if you noticed but we're not in Kansas anymore.

-=he shrugs, trying very hard to not seem as uncomfortable with everything as he really is. gotta be cool. he got this=-

Got a feeling this is a clothing optional sort of place on a good day so fucking in the street is probably par for the course considering what they gave us those beads for.
meanlook: (This is most unorthodox!)

[personal profile] meanlook 2012-10-24 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[The fact that Greed doesn't even so much as flinch combined with feeling those fingers beneath his shirt makes Silver visibly alarmed.]

What do you think you're doing, you pervert!
