Test Drive Meme: The Overflow
PLEASE CONTINUE YOUR THREADS OVER AT THE LATEST OVERFLOW POST, THANK YOU.
Please note that all CR in this meme can be carried over when the game starts between characters that are accepted into the game.
Threads can also count towards third and first person samples on the application, just provide links.
Take a look at our OOC Meet and Greet post! Meet. Greet. Make friends. Have fun!
 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. | |

waterfriends make him feel more at home!
"Y'feelin' okay? Y'need t'sit down or somethin'? Y'don't look so great."
Umi would totally have a Milotic
omg cute. and it's kinda' water dragon-y
"Y'wanna' find somewhere quieter? 've been lookin' for the ocean, m'self. This sorta' place ain't my style either."
I could probably come up with a team for her
She sighs, arms dropping. "I would love to find anywhere but this."
pokéfrieeends yes good.
Gently he'll pat a hand on Umi's back, seemingly very pleased she's decided to come along with him. "Awright! Y'like water? Let's go lookin' for the ocean!"
Jesus take the wheel, time to go on a wild goose chase with a tanned water-loving man and his jellyfish companion.
no subject
Umi flinches very slightly at the pat on her back. It's a bit awkward, honestly, to be touched by anyone at all right now, but he's way too oblivious and well-meaning for it to keep bothering her. "Water is nice. Let's see if we can find the ocean." If there is an ocean within any kind of sane distance.
no subject
Did Shizui just make a water friend? He's pretty sure he did - so he's happy as a clam at the moment. He guides her off in some direction he assumes the ocean would be toward, which in all honestly is kind of vague since he's playing this by ear really. He does his best to keep Umi away from crazy party-goers in the street, though, remembering how nervous she seemed to be.
" 'm Shizui by the way! This' m'pal Frillish."
no subject
Hahaha happy as a clam she'd get it if someone said that out loud. Anyways, she's a good swimmer even if it's not one of her favorite physical activities - any fencers here? - and she follows him in... whatever direction. Honestly, this is going to go badly, she knows it, and they're walking by so many people doing things in the streets that she sticks close. "I'm... Umi. Umi Ryuuzaki. It's nice to meet you Shizui and, er, Frillish." Whatever a Frillish is.
no subject
"S'nice t'meet ya' too! Havin' company's pretty awesome, yo'."
She doesn't ask out loud what Frillish is, so of course Shizui doesn't even think to bother with explaining - he's just focusing on stopping Umi whenever some rompers go on by in front of them.
Frillish is more curious about the younger woman though, and curiously lifts up a bit of her long hair with one of his little 'hands' - a blue and white tentacle that almost looks like a frilly sleeve.
no subject
As long as Umi's hair is, she doesn't notice anything for a moment before noticing that something's touching her. She whirls around gasping when she does, though, looking straight down at the. Jellyfish. Thing? "Wh-oh, you surprised me!"
no subject
"Ya'? S'nice t'hear! I think you guys'll be wicked friends."
...yes he thinks she's talking about Frillish, with the way they seem to be getting a long.
no subject
no subject
Frillish feels more...rubbery soft, and cool the the touch.
no subject
...maybe it would like to shake hands?
no subject
Frillish's eyes shine! Yes, he loves Umi's hair. He floats and looks up at her expectantly, shake shake!
no subject
Handshakes are fine though. That's how they greet each other in other places.
