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!

Tsutomu had already lost his beads when he got them. Being so worried about where he was, he bumped into someone, dropped his beads, and they all fell down a storm drain next to the sidewalk he was walking on. Great. What were those beads for, anyways? He didn't understand the person who gave him those beads. She was speaking rather quickly, and Tsutomu was still shocked from the sudden change of scenery.

And so he continued walking around, not exactly paying attention to where he was going. After a few more stepped, bumped into yet another person, possibly dropping their beads.

"Damn it, third time todayI-I'm sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going!" Before he could even get a glimpse of the person, he was already bowing frantically.

((continuing from here?))

Joscelin doesn't need so much time to look and see that Phedre is not around them- it's easy for him to identify her by the way she walks, the way she moves. He's spent months focused on nothing but her. A cursory glance over the crowd is all he required, but he still takes a moment to respond to Moriarty's question.

"Her name is Phedre no Delaunay, and she is my ward- I am sworn to protect her with my life. I am Joscelin Verreuil, a Cassiline Brother." He had already described her so thoroughly that any who knew her name would know she was the one he was looking for. That red spot rendered her distinctive.

[ well, this sucked something fierce.

one of the weirdest ways to cockblock a guy: pull something out of a sci-fi novel or movie (or would it be fantasy? like hell he really cared to figure out the correct genre to put it under) that involves "hi, you're in a totally different place that's not your own home! go and have fun okay?"

or something like that - he may have not even really paid too much attention because god damn he'd been in the middle of talking one of his professors into helping "tutor" him. it pissed him off. but maybe the pay off was okay? after all. he'd been sent off with a string of various colored beads to go and enjoy himself.

be merry. have fun. fuck around with people by offering up some of those beads as incentive. ]


Oh, what the hell... [ it wouldn't hurt to look around or whatever.

maybe he could have some fun with some people. get rid of the idle irritation and mild frustration he felt. ]


What's the worst that could happen.

With the way no one was keeping an eye on anything that wasn't part of their body, Kenzi couldn't believe how easy the pickings here would be for pickpocketing-- if anyone had any money. Marks? They were given marks? Electronically? What kind of crap was that? How was a girl supposed to make a dishonest living if she couldn't rob some mook blind to teach them a lesson, huh?

She fiddled idly with a bead, rolling it around between her fingertips as she thought about what to do. What, mind you, not who. She wasn't completely comfortable with the whole 'eat, drink, and fornicate your way into a better lifestyle' mentality they were shoving down her throat. She felt like Hansel and Gretal, munching away on sweets some Baba Yaga witch could munch away on her when she got too fat to move.

What she needed was some thinking liquid. And that meant vodka. Or tequila. Whichever one found its way into her mouth first. Looking around, she pushed off the wall and began to gingerly make her way into the crowd in search of a booze booth. A bump from the left had her careening into someone on her right side, her hands going out to stop herself with the screaming thought in her head, Please let my hands touch clothing.

"Oops, not my bad."

Sky's gone through the beads and the intro, wondering just how settled into the idea of this place she is. The tech more than intrigues her, and she'd stick around for that alone. The chip implant has her a little unsure, but maybe if she learns about it...

She finds herself juggling both a white and black bead in her hand, curious about the little system they had set themselves up here. Idly, she began looking for glimpses of other beads, wondering what was available and what she might get up to.

Jake was half convinced this was all a really fucked up dream. Really? Chips in his head? Those were for vamps. And he was definitely not a vamp. A place that not only encouraged sex, but rewarded it? This had to be some kind of dream.

He'd accepted the mass of beads he'd been given, listening to the meanings behind them and discarding the ones he wouldn't be the slightest bit interested in. Not that he planned on going out and tossing handfuls of beads around, but hey, if this was a dream, maybe he'd find something worth making it a dirty dream over.

He was propped up against the side of the building, munching on something someone had handed him before copping a feel, which had earned them raised brows, but they'd moved on before he could do anything about it. Presently, he was looking down at the handful of colored beads he'd kept; pink, blue, orange, grey, white, red, and black. Quite the assortment. He let them roll around on his hand, thinking idly that this was all pretty damn real for just a dream.

Jaime had been looking around himself for something to do. He'd met a few people so far and went his separate way from them. He had reached into his pocket to pull out his other beads when he crashed into the other guy. The beads went flying and landed on the ground with clattering noises. The teen stumbled back but caught himself before he fell over.

He brushed the front of his hoodie off as he listened to the other guy. He was about to say no problem when he looked up and notice he was bowing. The latino hero raised an eyebrow and took another few seconds to speak. "Um...it's okay ese. It was an accident."

Except for the simple fact that Jim had no real clue what words like this meant, and he stared for a moment, lips moving, seemingly processing it. He brought his hand up to his mouth, brushing his thumb over those particularly telling lips, keeping the slight smile secretive. Jim rather liked the bodyguard type, thought them simply adorable, especially the particularly loyal ones. He canted his head slightly, still observing.

"Afraid she's not here, unfortunately. Not from what I can see." Flint eyes were directed towards Joscelin again. "Joscelin Verreuil." He repeated. "Do forgive me for not knowing," and he hated that, his tone dropped some, a bit more of a snarl. "Cassiline Brother. What precisely does that mean?" Probably some sort of group he imagined, a fraternity perhaps, maybe a cult. Couldn't quite place his fingertip on it as anything he recognized.

Joscelin could tell that he has no idea what Joscelin was talking about, which lent credence to the idea that the man was not part of the Shahrizai ranks, or from anywhere near Terre d'Ange. The Cassiline Order was not large, but it was well-known everywhere around it- at least the fact that two Cassilines attended the Monarch's every move.

"The Cassiline Brotherhood is the branch of d'Angeline religion that serves the angel Cassiel. We guard the scions of Elua, the royal family of Terre d'Ange and other prominent nobles." And whores, if they paid well enough. That still rankled- where the other young brothers he knew served nobles, he guarded a courtesan. "We are sworn to defend our wards to our last breath."

[Rin calmed with a breath out, shaking his head at the offer as he showed the rabbit tucked in the crook of his elbow, little stubby legs hanging over.]

Nah, already got one.

[Should he mention Night... ? Rin wasn't expecting to see his brother there at all, and it was a little more than awkward.

Especially with those odd, not quite clear thoughts muddled in the back of his mind...]


You... doin' okay? This place is a little weird, don'tcha think... ?

It was...strange. Tsutomu had this strange feeling of deja vu, like he met this man before, somewhere, somehow. How did he think this? Well he did kind of stare at him like a fool and get a good look of his face before realizing the situation that just happened.

Tsutomu was clumsy, as always, frantic about the change of scenery. This had to be a strange dream of some kind. Well whatever it was, it caused Tsutomu to panic, and he ended up bumping into Izanami here, dropping his beads, which lead to him staring before snapping out of it.

"I-I'm so sorry!" He shouted as he squatted down to pick up the beads.

Elua had spent his time here exploring and wondering where his Companions were, where he was and if he would be able to get back to his people and his country. It made him sad to think that the answer to that may be no, that he would never see Terre d'Ange or his Companions again. Cassiel would be worrying himself to distraction, he was sure of it.

It was in this spirit of contemplation that he spotted Joscelin. He looked... very familiar. For a sharp moment Elua thought he had seen Shemhazai in the crowd but no, this boy was different. Obviously stronger, more martial, and he saw the empty dagger sheaths, so similar to the twin daggers that Cassiel had carried in his own service.

Curious and very intrigued he walked up to the young man. He wondered how someone could look so similar to someone he knew so well. The boy wasn't angelic, that much he could tell at a glance. But he looked... he looked like some of the children Elua had seen that had been born of the union between his people and his Companions. But none of them were this old yet, the oldest was perhaps seven or eight at the most, while this young man was nearly an adult.

"Excuse me, young man. I feel as though I know you. Or that I should. Or... perhaps that I will know you." Yes, that sounded right. Like he was going to know this young man. He just hadn't met him yet. "I am Elua. May I ask your name?"

Joscelin turned, confused at being addressed that way. He didn't recognize the man at all, but there was something familiar about him... as though he'd seen him somewhere, but not quite him.

More like him carved in twenty feet of stone. When he heard the name he blinked in obvious shock, his Cassiline calm falling away. "El...Elua? No, it isn't possible." He gripped the other man's arm tightly- almost tight enough to hurt. "You do not know what you mock by taking that name."

[ooc; Info and kink list is here! If you have any questions just drop me a PM C: ]

[The beads he was handed were shoved into one of his coat pockets, one or two still poking out, but he didn't seem to care that much about them. Nothing about this sat well with him and while the glow of lantern lights and people laughing softly did its best to be comforting, he wasn't buying it.

He crinkled his nose, a strange look overcoming his face. This place was overrun with the smell of sex and it bombarded it poor nose with little care. It was like walking into a barn for the first time and the stench of hay and horse manure hits you. He coughs and readjusts the sword bag slung over his shoulder. Of course if he was truly stuck here he'd have to get used to this, right?]


Tch! I would prefer a barn to this...

It was probably a bit of luck that Izanami had decided to tuck his own beads in a safe place; the tightness of his obi. With the multitude of layers and how tight it was about his middle? It proved to be a well enough spot for them.

For the time being, at least.

The bump was cause enough for a bit of a stumble forward. Something like a surprised gasp is choked back and he turns, eye just a bit wide as if he had been expecting it to be some sort of friendly animal. But it wasn't. It was just a man apologizing and picking up his -

"Ah."

Izanami, smiling, knelt down a moment later. He may as well help him pick up those scattered beads, while making small talk. "No, it's fine. I hadn't been watching where I was going - this city's festival makes it so easy to make one's self forget their surroundings."
