TEST DRIVE MEME: JULY

Welcome to the Ryslig Test Drive Meme! Below are a few prompts to get you started, but you may make up any prompt you desire! Please take a look at the navigation page for rules, setting information, and links to reserves and apps. Have fun!

SCENARIO ONE

You wake up on a hard cot in an unfamiliar room, still thoroughly drenched from your arrival. There's salt water all over you, stinging your shallow wounds and making every breeze feel like ice against your skin, and before you have time to adjust to the new environment some... thing walks in. Something that used to be human. There's really no other word to describe it - they're a monster, pure and simple.

SCENARIO TWO

So you've just arrived, and already SOME the natives are trying to get on your good side. Offers of food, shelter and other luxuries in return for hoping you don't eat them. They even have some helpful pamphlets to share with you. "How To Deal With Changes", "Alternatives to Human Flesh", "What to Expect When You're Expecting (to turn into a monster)" are all great pamphlets. There's even some detailing certain monsters, and the changes they go through. Some of these seem to have been passed down from one monster to the next.

Among these however, are some... not so helpful ones. "Bunnyipyips And You", "Axe Thief Axehounds," and "So you're becoming a Fur Bearing Trout" among others. Sometimes they have marks on them from previous people who had them saying they are lies, or pointing out good "jokes." Then there's the people who aren't happy to see you at all. Glares and silent, judging stares if you're lucky. Torches and pitchforks attempting to drive you out of the town if you're not. You may need a friend to help you.

SCENARIO THREE

"Seek us out," the voice whispers in your head, and before you have time to question it you've found yourself in someplace entirely alien. Maybe it's the Fog God's ghostly town of Dyster, where exultant followers dance around bonfires and sing their praises to the skies above. Maybe it's the Fourth God's arcade, with small robots wheeling about amidst the lights and colors of old pinball machines. Maybe it's the snowcapped and solitary mountain to the north, or the vast and uncaring sea to the south. Only one thing is certain: you are not alone, in this sacred place.

SCENARIO FOUR

The time has come and you've found yourself becoming a monster. Is the change instant, or gradual? Are you familiar enough with monsters to know what's happening, or is it a complete shock? NOTE: Feel free to pick any monster type for this prompt, but note that you may not get the same one in game.

[ Choromatsu has started to feel some kind of gut feeling all right. After a while he's pretty sure he's being followed so he stops in his tracks and almost turns his head--

Then stops himself before he can even get any kind of look behind him.

Don't look back is what his brain screams to him.

If he's being followed... stalked... then it's likely because he's caught the eye of someone hoping for a quick meal once his guard was down and he was alone.

He feels a cold sweat start to come on, then begins walking again. This time much faster than before.

Just act casual, find a crowd and then figure out a way to lose them!

... of course that "stay casual" part kinda evaporates quickly because soon enough Choromatsu instead opts for just flat out running as fast as he can. ]

[He's been following his brother for a little while now, and he's not really sure what his end-game plan is to be honest. He should probably just.. go over to Choromatsu and let him know that his nii-san is here by now, but he still doesn't want to have his brother scared of him -- augh! Why couldn't Choromatsu be fearless like Jyushimatsu or Ichimatsu??

Maybe he should just turn---- oh, wait.

Wait Choromatsu's definitely starting to run, as if he's being chased by some kind of monster. But, there wasn't anyone following him besides...

Oh.]

Ahh, shit---!

[WELP. Since Choromatsu already knows(?) about Osomatsu's presence, Osomatsu decides that hiding behind stuff isn't really helping so you know what he's gonna do?

He's gonna start running right after his brother.]

Choromatsu, wait!! It's just your nii-san!!!

[DON'T BE SCAREDDDDDDDD]

[ If you think that would actually make him stop you are incredibly mistaken. It gives him a brief pause sure but then he just starts running faster. ]

DO YOU THINK I'D REALLY BELIEVE THAT?! STAY AWAY FROM ME!!

[ HE'S WATCHED HORROR MOVIES... THERE'S TOTALLY PROBABLY A MONSTER IN THIS PLACE THAT CAN FAKE VOICES RIGHT. PROBABLY. OR MAYBE HE JUST HAS A VERY PARANOID IMAGINATION. ]

Edited 2016-07-10 20:02 (UTC)

[That hurts, Choromatsu. That hurts real bad.

But no one said the Matsunos were smart people, which is made obvious with the brother refusing to even turn around and check if he's being chased by an actual monster or not, and the other brother deciding the best thing to do when Choromatsu's obviously panicking is continue chasing him.

Though. Actually... unfortunately for Choromatsu, another unseen change of Osomatsu's just so happens to be hunting instincts. So while he's running after his brother, he's actually starting to enjoy the feeling of wind whisking past his face and the thrill of being so close to catching his brother yet so far...

So he actually stops, giving Choromatsu a good thirty seconds to get far enough away before he uses his wings to lift himself a couple feet into the air..

And dives right for his brother, arms out ready to tackle him to the ground with a big grin on his face.]

CHOROMATSUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!

[You better be ready to duck.]

[ "Be ready to duck" yeah, that's funny. That's real funny. Choromatsu is most definitely not ready to do that.

The tackle takes him by surprise and he goes down face first with a great big THUD. He's still for a second from the shock but then immediately starts flailing and kicking his arms and legs, wailing and shouting away. ]

LET ME GO, LET ME GO! I KNOW I'M A VIRGIN BUT I'M NOT TASTY AT ALL I SWEAR!!

[ ...no he still hasn't look at Osomatsu yet, geez Choromatsu. ]

[Oh my god Choromatsu STOP.. BEING SUCH A CHILD....

In response, Osomatsu most definitely is going to stay clinging onto his brother despite how he's flailing around like a fish on dry land.]

Even if I was gonna eat you I wouldn't, 'cause you probably taste terrible with all the masturbating you do all day, Rising-Shikosuki!

[He's gonna get up a bit now, but he's not getting off just. Sitting on his back with his arms on his hips, clearly judging his little brother and his life choices.]

You prolly shouldn't go around telling monsters you're a virgin, either. With the whole "sacrificing" thing they do.

[ Ah yes now that. That breaks him out of his panic and sets him right into PISSED OFF mode. ]

SHUT UP!! [ he turns his head back ] I DON'T MASTURBATE ALL DAY! YOU STUPID PIECE OF SHIT OLDER BR--

[ and then he stops. that's. definitely a monster person all right but the face is still... ]

O... Osomatsu-nii-san... is that really you...?

[Well, since Choromatsu seems to finally snap out of it, Osomatsu climbs off his brother and takes a seat next to him on the ground instead. He gives his younger brother a warm looking smile, and reaches up to rub a finger under his nose in that very familiar habit he just can't seem to break.]

In the flesh~

[Then he moves that hand to jerk his thumb over in his direction, that smile looking a bit cheekier than before.]

Heheh, it's a dream come true, ain't it? You missed your nii-san, right Choromatsu? Right, right?!

[Actually, it's the other way around really. But like he'll admit that he missed his little brothers....]

[ it takes him a moment but as Osomatsu speaks he manages to bring himself into a sitting position while just sort of... staring in shock ]

You... You're...

[ and then a bit of that Choromatsu anger comes back ]

W... What the hell is wrong with you?! Why were you stalking me?! You idiot eldest, I nearly pissed myself, I was so scared!! I-I--

[ ...or maybe it's not just anger fueling this particular outburst because. well. there's tears in his eyes. he's totally starting to cry.

good job bro. ]

[When Choromatsu started reprimanding him, as he usually does, Osomatsu just sheepishly ran a hand through his hair and took his scolding with a grain of salt. Sure, he stalked him a little and yeah okay he was pretty scary, but--

...

....oh. Oh he's.. crying...? Why is he crying? Did he really scare him that badly...?]

Hey, hey! It's okay, Choromatsu! I wasn't gonna hurt you or anything... you shoulda' just looked over your shoulder when I called out your name and you would've seen that it was just me!

[HE DIDN'T WANT THIS TO HAPPEN THAT'S WHY HE FOLLOWED HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE..... good going Osomatsu.]

Why I would I do that?! And what about when you were following me around like a total creep, huh?! You didn't call my name until I was already running, stupid!

[ wiping his eyes with his arm and sniffling ]

Why would I even think you'd be here? You were just home!

I'm sorry!

[Osomatsu holds his hands up defensively, with no real excuses coming to mind about his actions.]

I just didn't wanna scare you so I didn't really know what to do besides follow you around. 'Cause, like, these wings and stuff are pretty creepy right? So maybe I coulda', I dunno... found the right timing to approach you or something?

[He lowers his hands into his lap then, and lowers his gaze as well for a moment while he thinks of something to say that might comfort him or cheer him up or.. something.]

Uhmm... y'know, it's weird but I haven't actually seen you in two months? I don't know how that really works, but I kinda missed having you around to yell at me all the time.

[ You know... there's a lot he could say to all that. Make a comment about the wings, call him stupid again, say that isn't possible...

Or admit that's actually a little touching...? ]

[ ... ]

[ instead of any of that he just. scoots back a little. ]

Now I know you're not my brother.

[ at least it's said kind of jokingly though ]

[Well at least he's seemed to cheer... probably cheer Choromatsu up.

He can tell by the tone of his voice that he's mostly joking, so in retaliation; Osomatsu just scoots closer with a wide grin on his face.]

You caught me, Chorosuki! I'm actually a demon who possessed your dear older brother... or something!

[Osomatsu waves his arms towards his brother playfully, making "whooshing" noises while he does so.]

Now you're gonna be sacrificed 'cause you were dumb and told me you're a virgin~

[ well he's not crying anymore at least. guess that's as close to "cheered up" as you can get right now.

he frowns harder... then gives Osomatsu a shove ]

You don't need to be possessed by a demon, you're already one.

[ pause ]

Also shut up about that!
