voidtreckerooc | Test Drive Meme 001

Welcome to our first 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!

Void Trecking

The thing about being on a train hurtling through void space is there’s not much to see. Outside the window lies an endless void of kaleidoscope colours shifting and swirling. It’s probably best not to stare at it too long. Do so and you might start to imagine order in it. Shapes, places, even figures. But your eyes shift... Back to chaos. Probably best you do something else other than stare out the window. Or convince your fellow passengers that void watching leads to headaches!

Sport Balls

Were you the unlucky person to first open the cupboard? Or were you sensible and let someone else deal with the avalanche of balls first? Either way there are now many many balls for every ball game you can imagine? Play one? Make up a new one? Wonder why there is a gymnasium on a train at all?

Aubergine Adventures

In the store rooms among the general ingredients for the month there seem to be an overabundance of aubergines. Why? Who knows. Perhaps the world where they last restocked had many to give, perhaps they’ve just been overlooked and now nearing the time where the stores need restocked these are the only things left.

What can you do with an aubergine? Can you make a tasty meal for everyone on this train? Or do you cook just for yourself?

A Whole New World

New worlds aren’t all about missions, sometimes there is time to explore, take in the sights, immerse yourself in local culture.

For example this huge covered market. Filled with people from across the stars, sales pitches called out, all translated by your Safety Control Apparatus.

A woman with three extra cyber arms is trying to convince you of the newest technology. “Just plugs right into the ports in your forehead, any information you need downloaded instantly. Never be stuck for an answer again!”

Or what about this stall selling strange gelatinous cubes in every colour you could ever imagine? Get haggling, avoid being dragged into strange stalls by over zealous trades people. Or actually try and get the lay of the land for the forthcoming mission.

Mission Time

You’ve arrived on a world with purple sheep. Everything else about it seems almost like earth, if that’s where you are from. But the sheep are definitely purple and these specific ones have escaped their pen and scattered across the fields.

To make it worse there are wolves about. The farmer has asked for your help!

Team One is to fend off the wolves, the farmer has some axes lying around but your best bet is to scare them off with burning torches.

Team Two is to play sheep-dog. Round up the sheep and lead them back to safety.

Team Three is to repair the pen, or this is going to happen all over again!

Pick a team, go wild!

Like what?

[A smaller ball rolls by Tony. He stoops down and picks it up. He waits till Peter isn't looking and throws it at him. And.. it falls short of ever hitting him. The throw just didn't have enough power behind it to get very far.]

Dammit.

Quaffles! You know, like Quiditch?

[ He turns and stoops to grab one to show it to Tony to see if that'll jog his memory.

[ his spider-senses don't even register the incoming ball as a threat and when he hears the ball hit the ground, he just looks stunned for a moment as it rolls a little closer. ]

Mr Stark, did you just throw a ball at me? That's super rude. [ Despite his words though, Peter is clearly smiling. ]

[ Gwen is still exploring the train, but at this point, there's not much extra she wants to see. She stopped in the dining car for a bag of watermelon flavored gummy bears and an apple, but that didn't seem like the place to be. So she followed her Spider-Sense back to the room with the ten billion sports balls, opens the door and stops.

And stares at the mess. And then looks up at Peter, the look on her face the least impressed. ]

Really?

[ They just cleaned this up and one of them has a Golden Snitch in their pocket as proof. Of...some kind. ]

Are you speaking English or am I having a stroke?

[There was a twitch to his lips to indicate he's choosing to be difficult. Of course Tony Stark (TM) knew who Harry Potter and Quiditch was. He just had to mess with Peter a bit. He looks up as Gwen comes in and sees the mess. He chuckles at her exasperated remark.]

He's a magnet for trouble. Are you sure you really want to be friends with this guy?

[The word 'friends' may or may not have had air quotes.]

Gwen!

[ Peter half-yelps as she comes in. She's gonna tell Tony they just did all this and Peter really has no excuse because really, he knew better-or he should have-especially after how long it took them to catch that snitch. ]

Haha, Mr Stark, Very funny.

[ He blushes just slightly, his ears a bit pink and goes back to collecting the balls. ]

Okay so, I may or may not have wanted to get one of them out again-It was the quaffle-I was specifically after the quaffle since you got the snitch.

Wait, what?

[He looks from Peter to Gwen and then back.]

You already opened this door before?

[He pinches the bridge of his nose and tries, tries ever so hard to keep from laughing. He fails.]

Kid, you're a mess.

I’m not helping you clean up again.

[ Gwen doesn’t mean this entirely, but she’s going to act like she does as she perched herself on one of the crates. She takes a gummy bear out of the bag and pops it in her mouth, holding the bag out to Peter a second later. Clearly she’s so pissed off or whatever that he made another mess and the soft smile she gives him is totally an expression of anger. ]

M-Mr Stark!

[ Peter just sighs at Tony laughing at him and bends down scoop up more balls. ]

You're both the worst.

[ He grumbles with no malice in his voice as he shoves more balls into the cabinet and then happily takes a few gummy bears. Candy fixes everything. ]

We're the absolute pits, it's true.

[ Gwen's tone is absolutely teasing by this point as she shifts on the crate, digging into her pocket for the Snitch. It's not really doing much except fluttering occasionally. As far as it cares, it belongs to Gwen, so it's not gonna try to fly off again. Gwen examines it closely for a moment before putting it back in her pocket and stuffing more gummies in her mouth. ]

Why do you want a Quaffle?

[Tony's expression shifted to an easy smile as he watched the kids exchange glances and gummies. They were so clueless. In truth, it did his heart good to see there was still some innocence left in the world. He wanted that for Morgan for as long as he could. His gaze stayed on Peter mostly. He hadn't and wouldn't tell Peter what was ahead for him, but the older man was just so relieved to see him alive.]

Because it's awesome?

[ Peter offers with a shrug as he pops candy into his mouth, not even noticing the look his mentor is giving him. ]

And it totally implies HP is real out in the multiverse somewhere. I hope he turns up here someday-that'd be super dope. But like-our age because reasons.

also, I was gonna show Mr Stark but I guess he forgot all about Harry Potter and quiditch. A tragedy, really. [ He says with a mock sigh ]

[ Gwen hasn't noticed, either. She's too busy watching Peter and grinning. ]

Honestly, I don't see why it wouldn't be real in the multiverse, considering I've met at least six variations of you already, and that was before I got here.

[ She turns to look at Mr Stark. ]

In my universe, you own a coffee chain. You also own Stark Industries, but you call your coffee chain Starkbucks. That's a little extra.

[Tony rolls his eyes at the Harry Potter remark. Whatever.

He continues to sit back and listen until Gwen specifically includes him in the conversation with that weird tidbit of news.]

Huh. I'll have to add that when I get home.

[He says it deadpan, but he's totally kidding. In fact.. he's pretty sure he's not going home again.]

Awesome. If he shows up here, we gotta be insta-BFFs. [ He says decidedly before starting to just crack up because of the whole 'Stark Bucks' things. ]

Oh my god, Mr Stark, you don't need to buy out Starbucks!

Wait.

If you do, does that mean I get free coffee?

[ Is it time for a bratty Gwen comment? This is how she flirts, she just doesn’t realize it. ]

I feel like for the safety of the train you should be the last person to have coffee.

[ To make up for what she said, she gracefully hops off of the crate and starts helping Peter out, picking up a Quaffle and setting it aside for him. ]

[He gestures towards Gwen with a wide grin.]

Couldn't have said it better myself. You get no coffee unless it's decaf.

[His smile fades and everything about his poster changes to dead serious.]

And no more of these energy drinks, Peter. We don't know what that's doing to your system. I don't have my lab on this train and we've never had time to study those effects on you. So until I can come up with something that will work, lay off of them. There's no reason at all for you to have extra caffeine in your blood. You are the most annoyingly energetic person I know without the drug. You're a smart kid, you know I'm right. For your safety and everyone else's, please. Treat it like mint.
