TEST DRIVE MEME
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 the beach thoroughly drenched with your mouth full of sand. The salt water causes various cuts and scrapes on your skin to sting and the sand isn't helping. The air is slightly humid, ruining any feeling of refreshment you might have gotten from your dip in the ocean. There are lights in the distance but the unfriendly scent of gunpowder fills the air. If you're lucky, you're alone. If not, you might find yourself staring up into a pair of monstrous eyes or down the barrel of a local's shotgun.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. 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.
no subject
[ Just... keep talking about safety. About the eventuality, not the possibility, of a safe place. The less they think about the dark and the unfamiliar shoreline, the better.
At least, that's what Dia wants. But then a gunshot rings out through the darkness -- distant, but close enough to crack through the quiet and she freezes, her grip on Ruby's hand tightening to the point of pain. ]
... stay very quiet for a moment.
no subject
Dia's going to be presented with the problem of Ruby suddenly darting behind her with her hand still held, both trying to hide and keep hold of her sister at the same time. No worries about her being quiet, she's turned hiding in plain sight into an art form.]
no subject
And it's preferred, if Dia's honest. If Ruby's at her back then she has nothing to fear from someone who might pick a fight with Dia. And it might give her an extra few seconds to run, if need be.
She hates that this... wherever they are has unnerved her enough into thinking it's a possibility.
She squeezes Ruby's hand tight, keeping her ears pricked for anything that might suggest someone's approaching them. But the echoes die out and there isn't another shot following. Whatever they were aiming for... either they hit it, or it was too late to take another shot.
She swallows hard and then mutters in a soft but urgent voice. ]
Ruby. I think it'd be best if we moved as fast as we can.
no subject
Lead the way, Dia. Your sister will be adhered to your side like superglue wherever you go.]
no subject
The lights are close enough to form the vague outline of a town when Dia speaks up again. It's nowhere she recognizes but... maybe, just maybe... ]
That... doesn't look like Numazu to you, does it?
[ please say yes. ]
no subject
I...I don't recognize it, onee-chan.
no subject
[ It's not alright, really and Dia isn't trying to pretend it is but... that's not Ruby's fault. ]
We should go and introduce ourselves and see if we can find somewhere to stay.
[ ... despite saying this, she doesn't make a move to actually start heading to the town again. ]
no subject
Right.]
Mm! ...
[...]
W...who are we introducing ourselves to?
no subject
The locals, of course. They should know what's going on and I'm sure they won't have a problem with helping us.
[ if she says it strenuously enough maybe it'll turn out to be true. ]
And who knows? The others might be there already wondering where we are.
no subject
She peers at the cityscape up ahead full of lights, and already she can see people scattered here and there from where they're standing. Some people are actually approaching others, handing them flyers and chattering at them, and that gets Ruby's attention right away.]
Look at that, onee-chan! They're helping those people!
