![]() THE OVERFLOW Since the last post is fast approaching 3k comments and getting laggy for some of our players, we have decided to go ahead and stick up the overflow post. 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. | |

no subject
She doesn't want to think that she's only feeling what she is because she likes having someone reliant on her. That's not what she wants out of her at all, and Trace really needs someone she can rely on. But she's also... funny? In an awkward derpy way. Is she... "I... um, it's alright and... you're... do you... have a, uh... are you interested in me?" So red, and she's managed to go to an all-girls school without ever even thinking about girls being into her (protip: a few are).
no subject
Her hand fidgets awkwardly in Umi's grasp. "Don't worry too much about it. It was a stupid thing to do."
no subject
If it's here. Where just kind of liking someone might go who knows where. She loosens her grip, and lets go with one of her hands, bashfully looking down. "So it was alright that you did that, and if... w-well if you warn me next time... maybe it's okay to do again." It's not like she's into Trace back or anything except she's already called her cute and held her hand so what else is it?
no subject
"... Man, we suck. At everything. Come on, let's, uh, get a move on. Before we wind up collapsing in on ourselves from how awkward we are, or something." Her leg was starting to ache a bit, too, but she didn't want to worry Umi or anything. More than she already had.
no subject
"Ha... y-yeah, we're pretty bad at all of this huh?" Finally, Umi lets go of her hand, though she sticks close and makes sure to hold the door for Trace. "At least we aren't hungry on top of all that."
no subject
She nods slightly at Umi when she holds the door open, mostly because saying 'thanks' so much is starting to make her feel stupid. "Well, not anymore, anyway. So... where do you think a drug store'd be hiding? I guess we can just walk around until we find it, but that'd make me feel kinda stupid."
no subject
She's not sure if it's progress or what that Trace doesn't need to keep actually saying what should be assumed at this point. After saying thanks about a million times, Umi gets it, and she's glad to help! "I have no idea where anything is gonna be around here, you know. Did we even really expect this restaurant to be here and to be so normal?"
no subject
"... I guess we just pick a direction and go. We've got time to kill, right?" She assumed. Maybe they were under some horrible time limit, but if they were she didn't know about it.
no subject
"Anyways, let's just go, and if we see someone who looks like they know what they're doing, and they aren't... busy, we'll ask." Actually, they could probably just walk into a store and ask whoever's at the counter, but Umi won't think of that right away.
no subject
Trace won't think of that right away either, mostly because she's still sort of surprised that she randomly kissed a girl and said girl was okay with it. Had even said something about a next time. She knows she should probably focus on more important stuff, but... girl. kiss. Girl kiss.
no subject
Drug stores and other normal... things are more important than thinking about a kiss. They're a good distraction from it anyways. Umi's still just a bit too unsure of how she feels about it to want to actually face it down right now.
no subject
"... Not that I read those. Look, my point is they probably want to have some way of building up a night of romance before they get it on." She probably could have picked a better way of phrasing that, but again, girl kiss. Trace looks to the right, sees what's very blatantly a brothel, and turns back to Umi with her face bright red.
"... Let's start looking that way." Trace points to the left.
