TDM: JULY / AUGUST

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.

Whoa!

[Way to practically shove some old-ass guy right at her, you ingrate! See if Anise tries to help your sorry ass again. But, she finally manages to break away from her quarry and deliver a heated look to the oddly spiky blond in the weird as hell clothes. Seriously, what the hell? It'd even be difficult to sugarcoat herself if those clothes were decidedly high value...and this weirdo kid was actually upper class aristocracy.

No way, she sneers. It'd be like Luke 1.0...which she could only stomach in small doses.]

Hey, can you back off, already?! Sheesh!! I've got this handled, and I can take care of myself...

You're welcome, by the way.

[Don't worry Anise, he's wealthy but not that wealthy. Or his parents are, anyway. Katsuki screams and tackles the man once Anise breaks away, punching him until he finally passes out. He stands up, sweating, and grabs the gun the man had. It's his now.]

You were a good distraction. You're small and annoying. But I didn't need your help.

[Wealthy or not, Katsuki doesn't have the kind of currency she's looking for regardless, and Anise isn't ready to deal with the exchange rate of gald into yen. Besides, she's already putting him on her eternal Shit List - right there next to Sync.

The man is all but forgotten, and the pigtailed girl bristles at the insult, her fists clenching at her sides. SH-SHORT.... By Yulia, she has half a mind to enlarge Tokunaga and bury this douchebag in the sand and wait for high tide. Instead, she inhales sharply and puts on a sickly sweet smile, laced with venom, tilting her head to one side and poking her cheeks.]

Short, sweet, and in prime range of pummeling whatever lonely pebbles you've got between your legs, buddy. [She won't fucking hesitate.]

[Go ahead and try, Anise. At best, Katsuki will stare in confusion when her powers don't work, at worst it'll be the funniest fucking shit that's happened since he ended up in this hell and he'll mock her incessantly about it.]

I'm a more challenging target than that Mid-Life Crisis you tried to kill before I finished the job, Shitberry Shortcake.

[She's getting to that point, real fast. Her smile twitches, temper reaching a boiling point. Why...can't...she just... blast him?! It'd be SO EASY if her fonic artes would work - he'd never even see it coming if she quick cast - but for whatever reason...she can't feel the presence of the magic that she needs to cast, and it's frustrating. She couldn't take this guy in an actual fistfight (though mama didn't raise no coward), but boy it's getting to the point where she'd put her money where her mouth is.

And Anise is a frivolous bitch.]

Do you always talk out your ass or am I just so pretty you couldn't help yourself?

[She sneers, lifting up her chin before going to pick up Tokunaga's poor, dismembered arm and ignore this steaming pile of rappig shit stinking up her immediate space. Might as well get to sewing his arm back on - she's not going anywhere when her puppet is missing an arm. He's her main means of attack and defense, especially if she can't use her artes.

Rummaging through her pockets, she takes out a long, thick needle and some thread, and gets to work.]
