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!

A flash of red caught his eye and held it, making his head turn to find the source. Well, well, look at that. Jake always had had a bit of a weakness for redheads. And in spite of the wrap around her, he could see this particular redhead was in more than decent shape.

He was new enough here that he wasn't comfortable with the... freer way that most people were expressing themselves in public, but he was red-blooded enough to not be able to take his eyes off of something they found very appealing.

As she passed him, he reached his hand up to give her a tip of an imaginary hat, a lazy smile curling his lips. "Ma'am."

Natasha was starting to get the lay of the land. Pun not intended, but she'd take it. Money was fairly easy to come by if you knew what people wanted and how to give it to them. Natasha was good at that.

In the back of her mind, she'd had one constant train of thought. Keeping an eye out for people she recognized, anyone else who might have ended up here, allies she'd know for a fact she could trust. So when she caught sight of Clint's form behind her, her immediate reaction was an overwhelming relief. "Very cute. Stop screwing ar--"

But the moment she really looked at him, she could tell that something was wrong. The way he held himself, the flecks in his eyes, the shade of his hair, just slightly off. She was on him in a flash, but probably not in a way he wanted. She had her hand around his throat, Widow's Bite humming quietly with the charge she was more than prepared to unload directly into his jaw. "Who are you? Where's Barton?"

He'd been surprised by her movement, but it was instinct and dealing with stronger, faster things than her on a day to day basis that had his arm coming up to block the hand going for his throat. Sweeping it to the side, he pushed at her midsection with his other hand, aiming to give them some space. "Whoa, lady. If you don't want to be called 'ma'am', all you have to do is say so."

Because really, that was the only thing he could think of that he'd done that could have set her off. "I don't know who your Barton is, but I'm Dallas. Detective Jake Dallas, LAPD Ghoul squad. I like a little forwardness as much as the next guy, but I don't have any red beads showing," he said, hand going up to check and see if she'd drawn blood.

"You think I'm playing?" Natasha asked, her whole body on alert and ready to stop him if he tried to get away. "I heard the whole welcome wagon speech - genetic donors, DNA on file. One hell of a coincidence, don't you think? That you just happen to be wearing the face of the one guy I've spent all day looking for?" Which, all right, wasn't strictly true. She'd been looking for anyone familiar, but Clint was number one priority. Always. "Clint Barton. Tell me where he is or I'm going to break your jaw. You fight with me long enough and I guarantee you're going to lose."

"I think maybe you need to take your meds or something, because firstly, I don't have a clue who Clint Barton is and secondly, I already told you who I am. You think you're the only one not happy to be brought into this little shindig? Think again, lady."

He took a deep breath, pulling the rational, professional side out and trying the whole 'words out of mouth' thing again. "I can't tell you what I don't know, okay. And whether we scrap about it or not is completely up to you. I'd prefer not, since my mom taught me not to hit women, but I'm sure as hell not going to stand here and let you use me as a punching bag for whatever frustration you have for being here. You wanna talk? Talk. You wanna fight? Go find someone else in the mass of people here who's into that shit, 'cause it's not me."
