Test Drive Meme: The Overflow, Part Deux!
![]() 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. 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 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. | |

I guess so. [Johnny thought back to rumors that he had heard of married men cheating on their wives, in his neighborhood at home.] Especially stupid things.
[He briefly fanned himself by tugging on the collar of his shirt.] We'll have to be careful not to fall for their crap.
no subject
[He snorted quietly at that last statement, though.] Let me know how long you last.
no subject
Besides, these people [he makes a gesture at all the activities going on right in public] are, uh, busy enough as it is. Who knows what they'd do to us?
no subject
no subject
W-well, of course-! [Huff.] Why are you so cool about all this? You're not made of stone or something, are you?
no subject
How old are you?
no subject
Although, that question actually shut him up for a good long moment as he tried to figure out how to answer. People wouldn't believe his real age, because of his appearance. He didn't like lying about it, but he had been told the lie for so long that he believed it... until he found out the truth just recently.
He went with the lie, for now.] I'm 16.
no subject
Alright.
Now to answer your question in a way... have you ever had sex?
no subject
Johnny looked at him with some defiance as he crossed his arms over his chest and tried to appear more intimidating.] Have you?
no subject
More times than I care to count.
[Not more times than he could count... the Sharingan has its inconveniences as much as its strengths.]
no subject
Still, there wasn't any reason to resent the other for having the extra knowledge and experience. He might have been a little jealous, was all.]
Well, no wonder you're so calm about it. [He hesitated before asking.] ...Got any tips you wanna share? Like, how to handle things. I'd rather not go crazy on anyone.
TENSES goddammit
[The next question, though, earned a small, small start of surprise. Asking for advice was nonplussing enough... that a virgin would worry about "going crazy on" someone? That told Sasuke quite a lot.]
...Know your limits. [If only Sasuke had been able to.] Even if that means stopping in the middle of it. [Gods, how he wished that had been an option available to him.]
the tenses are making you bend over for them D:
[He thought about sex probably just as often as any other guy his age, but there was a time and a place for that. The idea of basically being forced into some lust-induced state and running around with a bunch of other people in the same position… it left a bad taste in his mouth. Breed stock, Sasuke had said. No kidding.]
That’s the problem. [His face suddenly turned very serious. Johnny was remembering what he did to his comrades in his Awaker form.] I don’t know my limits. I can’t exactly go test them out on people either. That wouldn’t be right.
like the folks here do to Sasuke? oshi-
...In this place, you're going to have two choices. Find someone willing to do so, or have enough and fuck the first person who will hold still long enough. I recommend the first.
yes. now bend over, bitch~
Like a friend… [The blond sighed, turning his eyes down.] Well, if everyone’s in the same boat… Still, it feels kinda sleazy. Most people are probably using each other. [His cheeks paled a little.] Hey, wait. I don’t wanna be a dad yet.
Pfff not just yet, thx
Everyone uses each other at some point. That's a fact of life. [Bitter.] As for that, either don't have sex that will get someone pregnant, or go buy a box of condoms. [Sasuke was more than happy to stay with the first.]
no subject
Yeah, I know it happens a lot. Lenny’s always warning me about it. [He jammed his hands into his pockets.] I’d rather not, if I can help it.
[Confused stare.] Condoms? What are those? [Serious question, because contraceptives were pretty taboo back in that period.
He totally skipped over the part about having sex with a guy, because he didn’t foresee that happening. Problem solved, right?]
no subject
[He's tempted to say get used to it in regards to using people, but keeps that one to himself for now. He just assumes the boy is completely naive regarding that... and the condoms.]
It's a barrier you put over your cock to keep your semen from getting a woman pregnant. [Blunt as ever. Sasuke doesn't even consider venereal diseases; in a world where healing and sometimes contraception itself are done with chakra, they barely exist.]
[It's a good thing Johnny doesn't say out loud that he thinks Sasuke only meant sex with men in that first category, because Sasuke would be facepalming in the middle of the street. There are plenty of ways to have sex with a woman without risking impregnating her.]
no subject
Really? [Awkwardly, he scratched the back of his head.] I don't think I've heard of those before... but I'm not in medical studies or anything. And we can get those things here? [The usage shouldn't be too hard to figure out... Just slip it on before sex. Sounds simple enough.
V-I-R-G-I-N from 1929... Anal sex? What? Ignorant teen is ignorant.]
no subject
[After dealing with Taka, Sasuke was used to stupid questions. Deflecting came naturally, but so did blunt answers to questions not worth the additional prying that came with deflection. This conversation with Johnny was, Sasuke didn't even consciously realize, a bizarre kind of comfortable.]
[Oh, and oral sex, manual stimulation, toys... If Sasuke knew the depths of Jonny's ignorance, he would be glad not to be fielding those questions. He's not interested in being the boy's sex sensei.]
