TEST DRIVE MEME: JUNE

TDM: JUNE

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 is making all the cuts and scrapes on your skin 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 of the natives are trying to get on your good side with 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 on the more informative end of the scale. 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 readers saying they're lies, or pointing out good "jokes."

Then there are 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? Feel free to pick any monster type for this prompt, but note that you may not get the same one in game.

... I really don't get you.

[Non-existence is horrible.]

Isn't there anything you want? That's not Ventus? Being alive isn't so bad, you know... there's stuff like ice cream. And you don't even have to spend time with the others. You can do your own thing.

Come now. You can't expect me to believe that I would be allowed to continue on as I always have with you guardians. There would be rules and things that aren't allowed lest I bring their judgment upon my head.

[ A shrug. ]

What's done is done. What I desire has not changed and it won't change. I need the other half of me - that which my heart lacks.
missingache: ([11] But now I’m insecure)

[personal profile] missingache 2020-06-28 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
You know... we're the only ones here. You can do whatever you want. I don't want to make anyone follow rules they don't want to.

[Rubbing the back of his neck, he sighs.]

Ventus isn't here. I haven't seen him or anyone else. I was here on my own till you came.
darkcharge: (223)

[personal profile] darkcharge 2020-06-28 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I wasn't really speaking on this place.

[ A shrug. ]

In the end I plan on doing what I want to do. Nothing more or less.
missingache: ([12] And I care what people think)

[personal profile] missingache 2020-06-28 04:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well, you can practice not trying to go after Ventus while here. He's not bad, and I think he's sad you decided to go away.

[Though he can't speak 100% on that.]

Just don't join the Fog God lady.
darkcharge: (130)

[personal profile] darkcharge 2020-06-29 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Isn't that a bit easy to do considering the fact he isn't here?

[ Really, Roxas. Not to mention there's really no point in going after Ventus. However he won't really say that. ]
missingache: ([55] When our momma sang)

[personal profile] missingache 2020-06-29 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
He could show up. I did. You did. But there's still no point going after him. Not unless you want to kill him.

[Which would be messed up.]
darkcharge: (105)

[personal profile] darkcharge 2020-06-29 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It wouldn't be the first time I've considered it. Or tried it.

[ Because the weaker half should perish. Obviously. ]
missingache: ([147] Lose you now)

[personal profile] missingache 2020-06-30 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Crossing his arms, he looks less than impressed.]

I won't let you. If he ever shows up, I'll be a monster by then, and I'll fight you.
