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!

Crisis On… A Ship!

The train has a game carriage and the VR video games are always popular. A good way to relive boredom as well as teaching some good skills.

Crisis on...This game can be played with two to four players. It is essentially a crisis simulator mixed with an escape room. You can chose the scenario (the bridge of a space ship, a camp in a jungle, a high rise building, a sailing ship etc) and you are thrown into the middle of a crisis of some kind. Teamwork and a cool head are important as is using the surroundings wisely.

Ahoy there! You and your small crew are on board a sailing ship in the middle of an ocean. But you are being chased by an enemy ship and there’s a storm brewing! There are many roles for you to chose from and different puzzles and problems to be solved. Batten down the hatches, flee the enemy ships and if necessary man the canons! Bring yourselves and your crew to harbour safely.

Dressing up

The upcoming mission is one in space and the void treckers have been told to blend in. The dressing room has been opened and what awaits them looks like it walked out of a old science fiction film. Shoulder pads, metalic colours. Everything over the top, ridiculous and not practical at all.

Yet the mission brief said to fit in. So swallow your pride and try and find outfits that aren’t too ridiculous. Or go all out and make the most of it, it’s not every day you can wear elaborate outfits after all.

Space Battle

As perhaps the outfits had suggested this world is an odd one, the outfits given to the voidtreckers make them some of the most subtle dressed people in the space city. Big, bold and loud. But the crisis is clear, an enemy force attacking this city filled with non combatants and children.

Team One

Space fighting time! The space ships are designed for two so voidtreckers will need a partner. There’s not much time to train so it will be mostly learning on the job, but it’s fine. The voidtreckers job is mostly to make up numbers, to split the enemy’s focus whilst those that know how to pilot go in to defeat the enemy.

Team Two

The problem with space battles is, there are a lot of injuries and a lot of damaged space ships. The space city is not one that has a large military so damaged ships need to be fixed as quickly as possible.

Help out the engineers. It might be the voidtreckers know a little about repairing ships themselves but even if they don’t, extra pairs of hands are always useful.

Team Three

This city is loud, bustling and full of life. But with the battle raging outside everyone needs to stay safe. Help people get to shelters. Clear the streets and begin the evacuation, though hopefully a full evacuation won’t be needed.

Space Disco

Enemies vanquished, this city does what it apparantly does best. That is, party. The music is way too loud, different songs out of each building, people dance in the streets, lights flash far too fast. There is strange street food to try, new dances to learn and a victory to celebrate.

Comments

Trowa smiled, almost chuckling as he finished the sandwich. "Want to choose the next or should I?"

[gundamofthedesert]

Quatre finished his sandwich as well. "It's your turn to pick," he said brightly. "Only fair. I picked the first mystery sandwich."

[sendiintheclown]

Looking at the plate, Trowa chose a pair of sandwiches with a darker bread. "Those, then." He picked one up and offered it to Quatre.

[gundamofthedesert]

"Alright, let's try that one," he said, taking the selected sandwich. He studied it for a brief moment before taking a bit. "It's pretty good. Sweeter than I thought it would be."

[sendiintheclown]

'Not as sweet as you.' Popped into Trowa's head as his cheeks darkened a bit. He didn't dare say that out loud, Quatre might think he was weird. Which, fair point, he was, but also not the point at all. "That was unexpectedly sweet, I agree. Your turn to choose again."

[gundamofthedesert]

Quatre just smiled in response. He thought he saw Trowa's face darkening a bit but in the light, it was hard to tell for sure. If Trowa has said that out loud, he would probably have blushed too. But he didn't know this.

"Okay... how about this one?" He selected another sandwich. Same color bread as the first, but the filling was clearly different.

[sendiintheclown]

"Alright." Trowa picked up one of the sandwiches and took a bite before wrinkling his nose. Something pickled, and far over pickled to his taste buds. "Bitter."

[gundamofthedesert]

Quatre took a bite of it as well, frowning at it after a moment. "Certainly not what I was expecting. If it had something else with it, it might still be good. By itself is a little much. So which one next?"

[sendiintheclown]

There were only two options left on the plate, so Trowa pointed to the one closer to Quatre. "Let's go for that one." It was a light bread, and the filling looked similar to egg salad.

[gundamofthedesert]

"Sounds good." Quatre picked up the sandwich that Trowa had pointed to and took a bite. He clearly thought about it for a bit. It wasn't quite the same as an egg salad, at least that they were used to. "It's not bad."

[sendiintheclown]

Nodding, Trowa was quick to finish it off. "Not what I was expecting, but still quite good. I guess we're down to the last option, now."

[gundamofthedesert]

"Yeah, only one left," Quatre said picking up the last sandwich option. He held it up. "Cheers." Since Trowa was no longer holding a plate with other sandwiches. And then he took a bite. And paused. "What do you make of this one?" He couldn't tell if he liked it or not.

[sendiintheclown]

Trowa also took a bite, pausing to consider the flavor. "Not the best, but better than that pickled one."

[gundamofthedesert]

"That is true. Definitely better than that one." Quatre smiled. "That was fun, trying what another world considers a sandwich. What shall we do now?"

[sendiintheclown]

Hearing the music switch to something a little slower, Trowa took a deep breath and smiled. "May I have this dance?"

[gundamofthedesert]

Quatre glanced up hearing the change in the music and then smiled when Trowa asked him if he wanted to dance. "I would love to." And he held out his hand so they could take hands.

[sendiintheclown]

Taking Quatre by the hand, Trowa led him to the edge of the dance floor. He pulled the blond close, moving one hand to Quatre's waist.

[gundamofthedesert]

Quatre smiled as he followed Trowa out onto the dance floor, holding onto his hand tightly. As he looped his arm around him, Quatre stepped closer, that soft smile still on his face as he danced with Trowa at the alien dance.

[sendiintheclown]

Trowa's heart was pounding in his chest, having Quatre so close felt like a dream. The hand still holding Quatre's gave a light squeeze as he pulled the blond snugly against him.

[gundamofthedesert]

It was very exciting and Quatre felt his heart skip a beat as Trowa pulled him just a little bit closer. He was so close to him. It was a place he wasn't very often, but it was nice when he was. After a moment, he tucked his head more against Trowa's shoulder.

[sendiintheclown]

As Quatre's head rested against his shoulder, Trowa couldn't help feeling completely giddy. He let his cheek rest against blond hair as they swayed to the music. This was like a dream come true, and he couldn't stop smiling.

[gundamofthedesert]

Quatre was smiling too, but like he couldn't see Trowa's smile, Trowa couldn't see his either. Funny how it had taken a rave on an alien planet to get even this close. It was not something that he had ever really expected. He had so many responsibilities back home.

[sendiintheclown]

Slowly, Trowa released Quatre's hand to wrap his other arm around the blond. He was sure his heart was racing, but he didn't care. "This is nice."

[gundamofthedesert]

Quatre felt like his heart was racing as well. At least, butterflies in the stomach. "This is. Thank you for asking me."

[sendiintheclown]

"Thank you for saying yes." Trowa was sure he was blushing madly, he could feel the heat in his cheeks. Thankfully the lights were low. "I think I'm finding more and more to enjoy about peace times." His words were just above a whisper, almost like he hadn't intended them to be spoken.
