Test Drive Meme: The Overflow

PLEASE CONTINUE YOUR THREADS OVER AT THE LATEST OVERFLOW POST, THANK YOU.


CITY OF ARIEL: THE TEST DRIVE
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.

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!

[He doesn't say anything when Rin takes it away, only smirking slightly.]

That's a bit unfair and it certainly gave him a leg up in the game. I bet if you had both started at the same time you'd be on the same level with him, yeah? [He pockets his hands again.] Don't beat yourself up over it. All you can do now is just work twice as hard to catch up. It's all you can do.

[That earns a quiet 'heh' from Rin, though he doesn't look up from the rabbit.]

Hell yeah. Some day, I'm gonna surpass him.
darkasnight: (14)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
Sure you will! I believe in you, kid. [That earns him a hard pat on the back.]

By the way, you can keep it. You can tell some pretty girl a big strong man won it for it! [Isn't he just a laugh? He sure thinks so.]
keepsthefire: ([✠] Okumura means "awesome")

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
Urk--!

[The pat on the back makes him nearly drop the rabbit, but he fumbles and manages to catch it before it falls on the dirty ground where everyone has been walking and doing god knows what else.

Whew.]


Tch, I got a better idea. I'll just tell 'em I won it, and get all the praise for that too!
darkasnight: (05)

won it for you* wow

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Frown!] That doesn't sound as cool as someone else winning it for you. Those games aren't that hard, you know.
keepsthefire: ([✠] my sparkles at the best)

herpherp?

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's all 'bout showin' off, innit?
darkasnight: (11)

sobs into hands

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
And what will you do if someone asked you to win them a rabbit too? Gonna suddenly know how to shoot a target? [Smiiiile.]
keepsthefire: ([✠] supercalifragi-- what?)

shhh honey it's the wine talking /pet

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
...

[Oh.]

Damn it.
darkasnight: (14)

it does things to me...

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 07:09 am (UTC)(link)
[That elicits a loud laugh from him.] Now you're catching on! That's twice I've saved your ass and we've only just met. Go figure.
keepsthefire: ([✠] tch!)

it's okay, I forgive you

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Have a very unamused, flat look.]

Ha ha. Don't go thinkin' this is gonna be a normal thing! I might save your ass some day too!
darkasnight: (11)

good 8]

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
I look forward to it! It gets tiring having to clean up after everyone all the time you know. [Still snickering.]
keepsthefire: ([✠] so's yer face)

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well I'm so sorry some one decided exorcists were the almighty janitors of the world.
darkasnight: (06)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Apology accepted! [Another chuckle. Off in the corner of his eye he spots another couple getting frisky in between two food stalls. The image brings him back down again to their reality.]

So what is it you plan to do?
keepsthefire: ([✠] crai moar emo kid)

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
["About what?" almost escapes, until he sees the couple. Confused expression turns in to a scowl, hands lowering even as he keeps a hold of the rabbit in one of them.]

I'unno...
darkasnight: (02)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Honestly, the idea wasn't absolutely terrifying to him. Sure, being 'required' to have sex all the time and with multiple partners was no where near his idea of 'pleasant', but he could adapt. Sex wasn't scary to him and what were a few one night stands and flings anyways?

It was skeevy, but he doubted he was the only one who thought so. Besides, what else could he do? It didn't seem like outright refusal was in his best interests.

But this kid... Rin? He didn't look like he belonged in this place at all and Night could understand if he was nervous as fuck, even scared, about what they would have to do sooner or later.]


Have you ever had sex before?
keepsthefire: ([✠] will you find a way to walk away)

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
[There's no verbal answer this time, but his shoulders tense visibly under his uniform jacket, and eventually there's a very slow, very deliberate shake of his head. He doesn't flush completely, but a bit of red sneaks on to his cheeks.

He grew up in a church, and while Shirou never said one thing or another about sexuality or even sex in general, Rin knew what the Catholic stance on it was. By the time he had gotten in to high school, he had a basic, middle-school-level sex ed class idea of the entire thing, but it had more or less left him disinterested for the most part at that age.

And even if he had finally started to take notice of girls (or anyone, really) and certain aspects he hadn't paid attention to before... well it wasn't like finding out he was a half demon and attempting to becoming an exorcist was giving him a lot of free time to think about it let alone run off and frolic in the bedroom with anyone.

Maybe if his life had been a little more normal...]
darkasnight: (05)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
Well, there's nothing wrong with that either, so don't get the wrong idea. [He shrugs, suddenly a little awkward. The idea he came up with just moments ago suddenly seems... way too invasive.

But Rin was alone, wasn't he? At least Night could take care of himself, but it would be poor of him to just throw the kid out to the wolves (the cherry popping wolves, that is).]


Ah... [Rubbing the back of his head with a hand he sighed again.] Listen, if you ever need any help... You're free to come to me, okay? [He glanced over at Rin.] I know it probably sounds strange, someone you just met and already offering to help you out like this, but I mean it.
keepsthefire: ([✠] ... you wanna do what with what?)

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
[That got his attention. His head snaps up at the offer, and while some tiny part of him is happy that some one is actually willing to take pity on him in such a fucked up situation, he's still wary and a little more than surprised.]

... y... you sure? Place like this, I might just be in the way...
darkasnight: (14)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
If you came across as the type to get in my way I wouldn't have said anything at all. That aside, I would like to think you'd want your first time to be somewhat decent, yeah? [Another shrug.]

But I also understand if you don't feel comfortable with the offer. I wouldn't completely blame you! I am a scary demon! [Comically, he sticks out his tongue and waggles his fingers at Rin.]
keepsthefire: (pic#4609446)

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Urk. First time. Let's... just quietly gloss over that right now and pick that subject up later.

... muuuuch later.

The teasing joke gets a snort and a roll of his eyes, trying so hard to hide just how nervous he really is.]


Please. I've met the big bad. You ain't gonna scare me away that easily.
darkasnight: (07)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 08:35 am (UTC)(link)
Well good! [Then a fake pout.] I think I'd be a little insulted if you really thought I was that scary... [Wait. Pause. Rewind.

He looks over at Rin again.]
You've met him?
keepsthefire: (Default)

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
... uhm. Y-yeah he's kinda...

[Well this is awkward, telling another demon this.]

... kinda my father.
darkasnight: (14)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
... [Dot dot dot.

His eyes widen.]
Really? Well I guess that would explain why you don't smell anywhere close to some of other demons I've met in my time. [That just made things more interesting. The son(s?) of Satan training to become an exorcist...]
keepsthefire: you decide! ([✠] bed head or sex hair?)

[personal profile] keepsthefire 2012-10-23 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Basically.]

... why d'you keep goin' on 'bout smells and stuff?

[Looks like some one's human side blocks out certain aspects. His hearing is better than most but his sense of smell is pretty standard and easily confused by other scents.]
darkasnight: (Default)

[personal profile] darkasnight 2012-10-23 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh? [The question takes him aback slightly, but then he smirks.] Isn't it obvious? I can smell other demons nearby. Each one has a pretty unique scent, but they all stand out from humans pretty easily... [Like the constant underlying smell of sulfur.]
