Test Drive Meme 003

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!


What to do on a train.

The problem with trains is you are unable to get off them. Whilst hurtling through an ever changing void that’s probably a good thing all told but it can lead to boredom. Or at least it does if you don’t think creatively enough!

What can you do in a standard coach? Well the obvious, most practical use is a comfy place to sit, in relative solitude as long as no one sits too close. Read a book if you’ve the points to buy one, or write in your journal.

But thinking outside the box a standard coach is also a pretty good climbing course, up and down over the rows of seats, there’s even gaps under the seats if you want to add to the challenge. Or you could just play the floor is lava.

Escorting Dralite

Dralite: Small, bat like creatures. As chicks they are about the size of a beach ball, however it soon becomes apparent that they are predominantly made of wings. Unfurled the creature is tiny with massive wings, spanning a meter long each. It is obvious why they need an escort, they cannot yet fly and their movement is severely hampered by their disproportionate wing size. They will happily cling to any friendly creatures.

Adult dralite are about the size of a sheep with large wings and large claws. They are teritorial but not overtly hostile unless provoked.

Dralite have a screech that will floor most creatures, knocking them down disoriented. As chicks their screech will stun, giving them time to escape from danger.


This world has a sizable colony and a group of humans who preserve and look after the huge dralite nests. However it seems like a group of chicks have gone missing, poachers are suspected, probably planning on selling the chicks off world.

Team One Is to track down the missing dralite. There are clues, footprints, other tracks and rumours of an unauthorised camp of humans in the area. Follow the tracks, check out the camp, see if you can find who took the dralite chicks and where they are being kept.

Team Two Is to rescue the chicks by any means necessary. Be that sneaking in and stealing them back or bursting in to challenge the poachers and put an end to their operation once and for all.

Team Three The remaining chicks still need looked after, especially with many of the volunteers helping hunt down the missing ones. They are needy creatures that cannot mover very far on their own so rely on clinging to other species to get around. You might just find yourself with a new dralite hat or cloak clinging to you, trying to get comfy. They shriek whenever they are afraid or don’t get their way and are likely to wrap their wings around your head if things get too scary. Good luck!

Around the Campfire

Once the chicks are back safe and sound it is time for a celebration. A huge BBQ and campfire is set up for a tasty feast. Just remember to share the meat with your new dralite friends or they will get sad and sulky and that could lead to trouble.

There’s lots of food and afterwards the dralite conservationists will tell stories around the fire, inviting the trekkers to do the same. Wanting to know of the different worlds they have been to, the adventures they’ve been on. Or if real life tale telling is not for you then they will settle for a good ghost story.

That answer is a little surprising. Madoka knows she doesn't have tiny things like these following her, but.. she's also pretty sure she's not a bad guy? You'd know it if you were a bad guy, right?

But despite her confusion, she does look over to the three after a moment, and politely bows when they seem to greet her. "Ah.. I'm Madoka, nice to meet you! I've never seen anything before like these.. um, you called them Charas..?"
amu_chan: (Ikuto NO)

"Shugo Charas," amu said, nodding. "You're really never seen any before?" But she could see Amu's three so clearly? That... was weird. Amu fiddled with the lock around her neck, unsure what to make of that.

"No." She even shakes her head a little. "I don't think I've ever even heard of that name before.."

And they don't seem anything like magical girls, or witches, or anything else supernatural that Madoka does know back home. So she can't even make the connection with that and say that's the reason she can see them.

"Are they magical? Is that why people can't see them?" Even though - in Madoka's eyes - that still doesn't explain how she can see them so clearly though.

"I... guess...." Amu said.

"We're Amu's who she wants to be!" Ran offered, as if that was in any way helpful.

Madoka's gaze shifts at Ran the moment she speaks up.

"Who she wants to be..?" She echoes, seeming to think about it as she says it. The explanation definitely is vague, but not entirely unhelpful. At least it's giving Madoka a slight hint, despite that making her brain run completely in the wrong direction. "Um, Amu.. Do you want to be tiny as well?"
amu_chan: (Blush)

[personal profile] amu_chan 2019-08-28 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"Wh... what?" amu asked, startled. "No!"

"She wants to be sweet and kind and helpful and able to fix and make and clean things!" Su said.

Ran moved in front of Su. "She wants to be cheerful and energetic and athletic and brave!"

Miki looked bored. "I think it is obvious what she wants to be," she said, sketching as she spoke.

Amu might be flushing darkly.
happyends: (like love tugging at your sleeve)

Oh. That actually makes a whole lot more sense than the other girl wanting to become some kind of tiny flying cute human creature thing. And while she can understand maybe feeling kind of embarrassing to have those answers thrown out there by something other than yourself, Madoka instead smiles in a way she hopes is encouraging at Amu.

"Ah, I see.. But.. I'm sure you can be that way! If you give it your all, I'm sure there's nothing you can't do."
amu_chan: (Su)

[personal profile] amu_chan 2019-08-30 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Exactly!"

"I'm so happy we made a new friend!"

Amu rubbed her face with a sigh. "I'm sorry about them."
happyends: (i will take you for a drive)

"It's alright."

Madoka seems to genuinely mean that too - there's not even the slightest hint of her feeling bothered as she smiles. If anything, she thinks the charas are actually really cute. Why couldn't she have had those instead of being stuck in a suffering magical girl series..

"I'm sure you're happy to have them around, anyway." Despite Amu screaming at them earlier. "It means you're never alone."
amu_chan: (Laughter)

[personal profile] amu_chan 2019-08-31 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah I guess," Amu admitted as if it was being dragged out of her. "At least most of the time."
