Test Drive Meme 009

[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!

Dining Car

Situated above the kitchen the dining car has a large wooden table stretching the length of the carriage. Two long wooden benches run either side of it. At meal times it is inevitably crowded, chaotic and noisy without a doubt.

Try not to jostle your fellow diners as you navigate inter-universe table manners. Or is waiting better? Eating before or after everyone else so that you can eat in relative peace an entire table length from the next nearest person.

Or are you the rebel who starts a food fight?

Chores

Chores are part of life on board the Voidtrecker Express. Each team is assigned a task each month: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms, cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas, laundry and cooking.

Obviously the only thing enforcing these chores in a passengers own conscience and their fellow travellers.

Are you diligent or do you shirk? Do you try swapping your tasks with someone else? Or just outright bribing someone to do your work for you? Work together to get the task done or try and persuade a lazy team member to pull their weight.

Snow Way!

In a small village a copy-cat of the supervillain Professor Chill has struck! She has no weather machine but holds the same ability to control snow- and seems to be using natural winter to attack the village.

Team One

The village is being attacked by snowmen and ice golems. Magically animated ice creatures that attack with sticks and claws. Protect the village by fighting off the snow creatures!

Team Two

Many of the village have tried to escape through a mountain pass. Go and help them evacuate. Fend off monsters, carry children or luggage. Help the villagers through the snowdrifts.

Team Three

Our villain seems as fond of puns as her predecessor and finding her is made either easier or harder by the trail of clues left by her. Clues consist of puns, ice riddles and snow facts. Solve the clues and track her down to bring her to justice.

Snowball fight!

Of course once the monsters and villain have been defeated there is some time to have fun in the snow. If anyone can stand the sight of it any more. Snowballs, snow angels and snowmen (the non animated kind) are yours for the making.

Have fun!

"That depends on what you'd try to do...and more importantly, whether you're an idiot too," he says with a slight smirk. "What would killing me accomplish? The train's systems track that kind of thing, and it'd likely make your trip unpleasant. At least for a while."

He shrugs. "Besides, you haven't told me anything. You don't need to kill me to keep a secret."

[diamondsfortears]

"I would never try to kill you!" It's a surprised splutter of words with widened eyes.

A frown crosses his lips in further pondering. Besides, killing would require a time where Kaiba wouldn't be a threat, and Daia knows how weak he himself is, so he knows he probably could never overpower Kaiba.

"And it doesn't have to kill you... But you've been so nice to me, anyway. And this place provides what I need. There's no point in hurting you."

[blue_ice]

Well...that does suggest 'vampire'. Kaiba nods.

"Then there's no reason for me to be afraid at the moment. Simple enough. And don't mistake reasonable for nice."

He sits back to admire the finished dragon...and despite his last words, smiles a little. "Took a while, but you got there."

[diamondsfortears]

Poor Kaiba. Daia's confused a little at Kaiba saying reasonable isn't the same as nice. Aren't they the same thing, though?

Daia's eyes sparkle, partially from the remnants of tears, but mostly because Yay! He got praised! That's certainly how he's taking it, at least. All smiles here, the problem from before quickly forgotten.

"Thank you! I will work twice as hard next time! I'll make you proud!"

Lucky for Kaiba, Daia's not the type to jump and hug or he'd be tackled right now.

[blue_ice]

"Make yourself proud," is Kaiba's next piece of advice. "Surpass your limits."

That's the key to true contentment, he thinks. And of course he's still curious about his assumptions.

"All the sunlight doesn't bother you?"

[diamondsfortears]

"Well, I think I'm proud. I managed to do something new today and make a new friend! Oh, I'm Daia, by the way!"

Almost forgot introductions. Can't have his new friend not know his name, now. That wouldn't be any good.

"No, not really... I mean, I prefer nighttime, but I can walk in the day pretty easy. Garlic's okay, too."

It's not that they're misconceptions, it's that he can handle them. They are still weaknesses, just not life-threatening ones.
