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!
Training Gym
Fight club have finally gotten a gym to train in. Train carriages make strange gyms, long narrow spaces. But this has mats, balance beams, climbing apparatus. Pads and training dummies for punching. It also has large blocks that look a little like what you might find in a children's play centre but can be used to make obstacle courses or provide cover in training exercises.
Set up a course, practice fighting or try and learn how to throw a punch! There are plenty who will help, people who take training super seriously and let's face it, people who want to ambush others from behind oversized foam blocks.
Games
For those for whom fighting is not an idea of fun, or those wanting more relaxation, the games carriage has a whole collection of different games. Board games, card games, dice games. There are many games about trains but they aren't the only type.
There are low tables in the carriage to set a game up on and plenty of beanbags and cushions to sit on. Grab a game, grab a friend or a complete stranger and get playing!
Water Maze
The latest mission has taken the voidtreckers to an underwater maze. They have been given wet suits, helmets and breathing apparatus- lightweight boxes that strap to their back, connect to their helmet and filter air from the water. A powerful and dangerous artifact has been stolen and the race is on to get it back before it is used for ill.
Team One
Plenty of monsters and foes have been sent to try and retrieve the item. Giant crabs, strange eels. Even people with fish tails and the ability to breathe underwater. All are dangerous foes and fighting underwater is difficult.
But team one are the vanguard, keeping the monster levels low to allow team two to push on through the maze.
Team Two
Hopefully team one will deal with the monsters, but the odd one might sneak through. Team two's main job is to solve the maze, because the thief is in the centre in order to perform his ritual.
It's a race against time, the maze is made of coral and walls of seaweed that are impossible to cut through. Solving it requires a quick mind and some determined swimming.
Team Three
For those not wishing to brave the water, or those whose skills lie more in helping others. The island where the artefact was stolen from needs help. The temple was ransacked and some of the islanders were injured. Help them fix their homes, put the temple back to rights, tend to the injured.
Cleaning the temple is a big job, but hopefully by the time the artefact has been retrieved it will be able to be restored to it's rightful place.
no subject
You do realize that if he hears you say that, it's even odds on whether he'll ignore you even more pointedly or drag you to school just to make a point, right?
...granted, he's been a lot softer ever since we got on the train, so it's actually more likely that he'll try to get some education through that thick skull of yours.
no subject
...What would even happen when we got through the rest, a train graduation?
no subject
no subject
The other part- mostly the part that remembers being mom-ed at by the insect queen who may as well be a spider, even if that's not an insect or whatever, swallows and manages to speak.]
...
We don' even do the gown thing at highschool I thought...
[He feels like he would have noticed. Probably.] A-An' tha' aint th' point! I can do plenty of other stuff other than school! Like... Nyyhh...Train stuff!
[He almost said duel, and then almost said fighting, and then realized that for various reasons both of those are probably bad answers.]
no subject
[Wester raises an eyebrow that's somehow familiar in two distinct ways, but Jonouchi can tell they're a few moments away from breaking out into happy giggling.]
no subject
Katsuya closes his mouth, looking to Wester, and then away, and then back at Wester, and then at the spirits not a word out of you you little shits, and-
He crosses his arms.] Well! Obviously tha's gonna change up every now an' then righ'? Like how it's cookin' time right now!
...Which means I gotta...learn t' cook. I guess.
[He is quietly wondering if he should have just taken normal school.]
no subject
You know, I might be able to give you a few tips. I've learned how to whip up a pretty decent curry ever since I got kicked out, after all.
[wait what,]
no subject
He can't really keep his brows from going up.] ...Oh.
[Oh.
He knows some worlds are different. That's just how they are. He'd wondered why things seemed different about this 'Anzu', and apparently here's why. Other than age, they...] I...
......Did y'...have anywhere t' go..? [He manages a bit weakly, assuming that when they say 'kicked out' they mean more recently. Maybe something other than 'Malikisms' got to this Anzu's mom. They obviously don't. Have the 'Malikisms', after all, but there's probably something else, he thinks.]
no subject
It figured, now that Wester actually took a few seconds to think about it instead of casually blabbing like an idiot. No Puzzle, no Thorn, no Shadow Game with Jonouchi, no self-destructive drunken makeover, no apartment getting burned down, no confrontation with the parents... no getting the boot.]
Yeah, I... [Wester looks away, rubbing their shoulder. They're uncomfortable with this subject for several reasons. Especially since they're having to explain it to Jonouchi of all people.] I stayed with a friend—you wouldn't know her, I think—for a week, then sorted things out so I crashed in the Mutous' basement until we all graduated. [Most of this is true. Technically. Wester turns around, forcing a smile on their face.] Don't worry! I came out of it fine. If anything, I learned more life skills than I would've underneath my old roof, so I should be thankful!
[Also thankful for several more reasons.]
no subject
Maybe he's not the best at it, but then again no one said Wester was the best at it either.
...
When he thinks about it, maybe you don't have to be good at it. It's rough enough as is.] ...Yugi's mom 'n Gramps are good like tha', [He finally says with a nod, looking to the side.] ...Don' ask too many questions either. I uh... ...I did tha' a few times b'fore...
[Before Mokuba.
It was only perhaps three times as it was. One of those times was because of the Big 5.
He's not really sure that counts.] ...'S good t' get out of a place tha' would do tha', though, [he says a bit more quietly.] So uh...
...Congrats, I guess...
[An awkward cough.] I uh...I guess y' never worked in Engravin, where y' came from then...or...
[He glances away, briefly distracted by the duel spirits. After a short sigh (and a frown), he swallows.] Hey uh...
Y'know what? How long've y' been here? ...Why don' y' tell me what I've missed?
no subject
They are going to be in for a nasty shock later.
As it is, they nod sagely, hands in their pockets.] Yeah. Yugi's luck to have them, really.
[At Jonouchi's question, they startle out of their slight melancholy and snort in good humor.] Engraving? Dang, almost wish that crossed my mind. I actually ended up working as a stockboy at Kame Game. Now I have upper and lower body strength! [They flex for emphasis, and hot diggety dang Mazaki has GUNS now! Even moreso than before!]
Only a few weeks, and they've been... weirdly mundane, apart from all of the nonsense of, you know, actually being here. Some girl organized a dance party that I- unfortunately missed, and whatever lets us communicate across language barriers broke down for a day, but that's been it? I haven't even been on a mission yet.
no subject
Katsuya shrugs.] Well, ain't like it was th' first one t' cross yours either- firs' there was Burger World, then th' park, [He feels that outright saying Kaibaland is a great way to stir up bad memories.] ...An' then it was th' store.
[....Bueh-] Y- Y' didn' have upper before?!
Aw geeze though, a whole party huh...maybe they'll have one again? Not really my thing...
no subject
And, well. Of course I did. But now I could probably bench press you no sweat. Or throw you across the room even further. Either or, really.
no subject
[Oh, what little he knows.] G- Got examples tha' don' involve me bein' a bean bag..? I'd ask f'r a spar but I think K'seri dropped me too many times t' go f'r tha'...
no subject
no subject
[he beams, and somehow the ponyta is as well.]
She's from th' las' world I was in! All th' animals were more like duel monsters- with weird powers an' all tha'. Kaseri's a ponyta, a pokemon from tha' place.
....'S kinda neat act'lly... ...folks from differen' worlds an' stuff were showin' up there too...
no subject
You were on another other world before this?
[Wester is still stuck on that. If something like the train existed in the great big multiverse, it figured that there were other places that did the same thing, but still.]
no subject
Yeah! Craziest thing is tha' folks were settin' up to do some kinda dimensional taskforce thing...an' now I guess I'm on this one instead?
Oh man, it was wild! Everyone I knew? Differen' dimensions!
no subject
no subject
[He pauses, and grins.] Heh! Sure did! They were datin' Shizuka! Er...well sorta.
S more like...yknow th puzzle? Y' solved it, but I guess 'ventually you an him jus' merged- made their own person, yknow?
They were cool, [he adds quietly.] ....Helped me through some shit...
no subject
I.
[Bwuh?]
I was dating Shizuka?!
[That is certainly less an expression of incredulity and more of envy.
And their face is beet red.
Oh.
Ooooohhhhhhhboy.]
no subject
Squints.
And-] Z....zzzzaaaaahraaaa?
no subject
Of course.
Because they have no self-control, apparently.
The first thing that flies out of their mouth is:]
...that sounds like a good name.
