Test Drive Meme 002

[voidtreckermods]

Welcome to our Test Drive Meme! Here is the place to see how your character might fit the setting, grab some samples and start having fun!

1. Post with your character. I’ve written out some prompts but feel free to make up your own, you have a whole train to play with!

2. Assume they have been around long enough for threads to jump right into the action!

3. Have much fun!

Happy testing!

Luggage Handling

The last carriage of the train is full of luggage. It’s all empty but there sure is a lot of it. Suitcases, old fashioned travelling trunks, rucksacks. And they are scattered everywhere, a safety concern to be sure.

Or perhaps the most fun place on the train, if you are thinking about it right. These cases could be anything, a fort, a bunker. How many can you stack up until they are too high to reach or they tumble down on top of you?

Let out your inner child and relieve some of the boredom of being stuck on a train by creating the luggage castle of your dreams, or step in before disaster strikes and attempt to bring some organisation to this chaos.

Scavenger Hunt

You’ve found yourself on a world that seems to be one huge scrap yard. At least all the parts you can see are and you aren’t the only ones there. A small fighter craft has crash landed here and the pilot needs help fixing their craft to get out of here!

Team One The parts needed must be around here somewhere! This place has all sorts and so it’s just a matter of trying to sort through all the junk to find what you are looking for.

Team Two Some parts from the actual ship are salvageable but it’s going to take a team to get this thing sky worthy again. Fix what can be fixed and get the craft ready for the spare parts that will hopefully be found.

Team Three This planet is not without its nuisances. Most prominent are some strange cyborg rats that have a taste for wiring. Fend them off before they get into the craft and render all the hard work undone.

A picnic with a view

Heroes deserve rewards every now and again and after a few days of protecting a settlement from strange shape shifting alien blobs there is a moment to relax before boarding the train once more.

What a place to relax in. High up on a cliff overlooking a vast plain of crystal stalagmites. The light of two suns reflects of them creating a dazzling prism mirror effect of colour, it’s almost like hovering above a sea of rainbows.

A picnic has been provided by some grateful villagers, the food is strange but delicious and a perfect way to unwind after a stressful few days.

"A-ee!" Hattori drops the piece he'd been picking up and makes a mad dash for it. Fortunately he doesn't get too far before she's taken care of them. He stares at her unsure what to make of all that.

It was a little embarrasing really. He did know martial arts and he could handle some fights but those things were freaky looking. "I didn't have my sword!" He snaps, not at all what she'd asked. He notices that after the words are already out of his mouth. "I mean, I'm okay. Are you? That was some serious moves. You and Ran-neechan need to meet. She's Ku- er- Conan-kun's girlfriend- I mean, friend." Wow, he really had gotten flustered from those rats, hadn't he?

"Do you even have your sword on the train??" Isabel gave him a bit of a startled look at that. Not that her instructors even allowed her proper weapons yet--though that was more a representation of where she was on their particular paths, rather than a lack on her part. It wasn't as if she didn't spar with her father where he was armed, after all.

"Good, I'm glad you're okay!" That was the answer to the most important question on her list, after all. Though his words had her giving Hattori a funny look.

"Isn't Conan like seven? Or is he just that much of a mack daddy?"

[deductionrival]

"What? No. It didn't come with me. I was meaning if I had it then.. Never mind." He wasn't a helpless twit! That had been his point but now the excuse sounded pretty lame in his head.

Hattori looks up at her and inwardly freaks! No! She wasn't supposed to pick up on that! Why'd he say that? He can't get flustered again. And just as he was about to answer it, he started to think of how many girls Conan did have interested in him. "Uh.. sort of? He is seven but there are at least two girls in his class I know of that like him like that. Ran-neechan's my age though so.. it's sort of a joke between us that she's his girlfriend." Right. That was totally believable. "But I will have to call him 'Mack Daddy' just to see his face."

[hyperdrivemonalisa]

That wasn't what she'd been aiming to point out at him either, but Isabel had been curious. It'd just been a question, really!

Though Isabel's brows inched further towards her hairline as she watched all sorts of expressions cross Hattori's face. What had she even. Said? But then he did give her an answer--oh boy, what an answer!

"Oh, so he's like my Uncle Nick was when he was seven. A little quirky, and all sorts of girls dug him. Apparently my grandparents couldn't figure out why and were very happy when he settled down with a girl around his age." That was another tale in and of itself. Though she snickered, then. "I aim to please!" Because she'd probably call someone that to see their face, too. Though probably not Conan, she didn't know him that well.

[deductionrival]

He kicks over a small cracked bucket that had been dug up by the rats attacking. With his hands in his pockets, he wonders what Conan is going to think about his slip up. At least he didn't call him the wrong name this time.

"Er.. yes? I suppose. He is very quirky." So very quirky! He was pretending to be seven, after all. It was weird. "Was it a girl he'd known before?"

He takes another step and yelps as a rat comes out from behind a cinder block and bites the back of his leg. He whips around to kick it off, but it's an awkward angle and the rat holds on like a bulldog. "Ai-ee! Get it off!"
