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 was the strangest sort of thing, all of this kidnapping and being forced into this city for repopulation. It was a good idea in theory, but she knew better than to think it'd be some sort of cakewalk. The beads were easily forgotten, stowed in one of her pockets, the whole idea absolutely ridiculous in her opinion. Either way Tsunade took to exploring the city at large before finally finding a bar that looked rundown enough to ensure it'd have the strongest stuff for the cheapest price.

Slowly she made her way in, jacket pulled a bit closer to her to avoid the stares she'd inevitably get for her troubles. It was nice to not have to be worrying about some huge war, but being eyed like a piece of meat was not too much better. Thus she'd figured it better to hide her chest for the time being, getting the strongest sake they had and took a seat at the end of the bar. Hands slowly let go of the fabric, quickly knocking back one of the small cups of the drink. The familiar burn in her throat was good for reminding her that she was still alive and that even something as simple as that would work well on her.

It wasn't hard for her to realize that somehow they'd managed to subdue her chakra in this place, having tried to tap into it for a bit of healing and finding nothing. Though, for some strange reason, her seal was still there despite the inability to access it. She wouldn't complain, not yet, this place didn't seem to pose any sort of violence threat that she could tell.]

[ Between being the Fifth Hokage, his grandmother's old nemesis, and his former partner's teammate, Tsunade has good reason beyond her appearance to stand out to Sasori when he recognizes her seated at the end of the bar. Perhaps it's because she's someone from his own world, perhaps it's because of those indirect connections to his own life, but he's curious.

He slides into the seat next to hers, waving down the bartender for a drink. Without his puppet body or a usable puppet at hand, he isn't prepared for a serious fight, but he isn't going to allow himself to be intimidated by anyone either, Hokage or not. ]

Hmm, I suspect no one could accuse you of being a lightweight.

[At first she didn't think to actually pay him much attention, having only caught that someone was moving to take a seat near her. Her first thought was that it was just another one of the natives here, but taking a closer look she recognized that hair and even more so the voice. Sure, she hadn't directly dealt with him, but she'd heard the tales and knew a bit of what her former teammate had been up to.

A light smirk played on her lips, nothing more than her eyes shifting to regard him. She wasn't in any position to fight, herself, given that it was overly obvious to anyone from their world that their chakra was pretty much sealed away from them. There, able to touch it, but unable to use it for anything.]

Never wanted for anyone to think that, but I don't drink to shatter their thoughts of me being one. [She replies, with an almost amused tone in her voice.]

I didn't take you as the type to drink. First time for everything, hm?

It's hardly my first time. [ Yes, he feels the need to point that out. Admittedly, the last time he had even a drop of alcohol he was still a teenager, but that's besides the point.

...Or maybe it isn't, as he takes a sip from the glass placed in front of him more carefully than she'd taken her first drink. It's cheap and it tastes like it, but he resists the urge to grimace. Appearances can be deceiving, and trusting to them is unwise in his view...but in some cases they still do matter, after all. ]

I'd say that one should adapt to their current circumstances, however.
