Welcome to Ryslig's test drive meme! If you're considering apping here, this is where you can try your characters out in the game's setting. A few things to note:
Test drive meme threads can be used for your roleplay sample!
Sample scenarios:
SCENARIO ONE: You've just been released from the hospital in Vandare and no one really seems to know what to do with you. The locals offer polite advice but don't seem to want to spend a lot of time with you. You and the other new arrivals stick out like sore thumbs, so perhaps one will spot you wandering about town.
SCENARIO TWO: You've become hopelessly lost in Lager Woods. Paths don't seem to lead where you remember them leading, and you feel as if you're going around in circles. Childlike giggling can be heard from no direction in particular. Suddenly, you stumble upon another character, who seems to be just as lost as you! Perhaps you can find a way out together.
SCENARIO THREE: 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.
And yet so perfectly normal, that he had to laugh again.
"You can do it, Yukiko!" An enthusiastic claws up followed, even if she probably couldn't see it right now with her face so close to the ground. He didn't want to help her with every little thing unless she asked for his help.
Was it wrong that she wanted to throw something at his head for that? Clearly when she lifted her head, she was definitely annoyed. Give her a break Yu, not everyone can take to their new forms so quickly.
She had to push herself upward and back into a standing position, wobbling a bit as she tried to move a bit. It was more like shuffling or baby steps but it was something.
Possibly. But there she was attempting to walk and, honestly, as terrible as this might have sounded if he had thought it out loud, it was good that she was having trouble. It made him concentrate on other things, keep his mind on what needed to happen that night, and chased the demon away, even if just for a few minutes more.
"There you go. You'll get the hang of it in no time."
She doesn't want to get comfortable in this form, hoping that someone would find a cure for this soon. Yukiko surely didn't want to stick around long enough to start laying eggs or anything of the sort.
...he does realize that's kind of how baby birds are made, right?
She doesn't look back at her new appendages but she did stretch them out before curling them back in again. She was still in shock so it was going to be hard to get her to do things.
Oh he knows all about birds and beeds don't you worry >B]
Yu was a patient friend. He'd wait until she was hungry, let her decide when she'd do it, but he'd make sure she didn't go off the deep end from hunger first. As much as he wanted to speed things along anyway.
"That's good. I'll show you how to fly once you're ready."
She wouldn't be ready to do it ever. That was the problem: too much holding back and constant worry. And she wouldn't want him to carry her because it was just be a burden to him. To be honest, she was wondering why he was here.
Nonetheless, she just nodded and kept on walking. Gods she just felt numb, like this was just a dream still.
He was still stuck in his positive world; in a way that's what made him fit to be a leader, but in a world like this, it could be dangerous, especially with that demonic edge that now loomed behind him.
"Don't worry," he added, smiling again. "I'll be by your side and we'll all figure this out together."
Tentatively, he tightened his hand around hers, to give her some comfort, and, perhaps, his own inner strength.
It was easy to say that they would stick together but there would always be a test for them to go through. Yukiko did know in her heart that they always pulled through but right now, it was looking pretty bleak. What could they do as monsters to stop this?
But then a sign appeared. Clawed hand grabbed onto clawed hand, trying to show that neither of them was alone in this. And for just a moment, there was a small smile appearing on her face.
And he was thankful for it. Maybe he would slowly change his own view on his own situation, as humanity and monster fought inside him. He moved a little bit closer so she could rest her head on his...well elbow at this point since he'd gotten so tall.
He wasn't quite sure where they were going at this point, but he wanted this journey to never end.

Just don't expect her to fly anytime soon.

Once she is starting to walk a little better he watches her quietly for a few more minutes before speaking again.
"How are your wings feeling? Can you move them around a bit?" He moved his own as an example.

Guess he wouldn't need to carry her after all.
