Test Drive 017

Welcome to the Test Drive Meme! Here is the place to see how your character might fit the setting, grab samples and have fun!

1. Post with your character, including their name and series in the subject. We’ve written out some prompts but feel free to make up your own, you have a whole train to play with!

2. Assume they've been around long enough for threads to jump right into the action.

3. Have lots of fun. Mandatory, mod-sanctioned fun.

Happy testing!

Pumpkin Patch


It seems the ingredient of the month is pumpkins. The store room is full of them, in all sort of sizes all ready to be made into delicious meals. Pumpkin soup, roasted pumpkin seeds, stuffed pumpkin, pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin pie. All the recipes are on the ICP and are easy enough to follow, even for those who have never seen a pumpkin before in their life.

Get cooking or perhaps passengers from worlds with Halloween festivals wish to carve the pumpkins first, creating grotesque faces or fancy works of art.

Hopefully no one eats a masterpiece!


Movie Wars


The Cinema carriage is as tall as a double carriage, but has only the one floor. Instead it features sloped seating. To enter the carriage from the sleeper carriage side you must first go upstairs. You enter at the top of the carriage, in the centre aisle with paired seating sloping downwards on either side. On the opposite wall there is a large screen and there is a door to the left of the screen once you get to ground level, to allow you into the next carriage.

On the right of the screen there is an ICP and in this carriage it has a catalogue of films and TV series. There are hundreds to chose from.


Hundreds of films to chose from and hundreds of passengers to share it with. Choosing what to watch can be difficult, agreeing what to watch can be impossible.

Are they a fan of Merry Little Voidtrain- the long running cartoon series about a Voidtrain and captain Kheli. Or perhaps a hard hitting drama about cross alien-species romance. Or an action film? A heal tapping musical about robot mice?

Choose a film, try not to argue, grab some popcorn and hope your fellow cinema goers understand cinema etiquette...

Spookstown


A series of mysterious events have struck a small town. The Voidtreckers are in need of help.

The train has brought the Voidtreckers to the town of Carcel. It is a small town with a small population in a world that is low in technology. A town of cobbled streets lined with gas lanterns. The occasional carriage drawn by strange creatures with six legs and long necks. The town is far away from any of the larger population centres of the world and yet it is here where the Voidtreckers must help.

A series of strange disappearances have rocked the town. People vanishing, sometimes from the streets but more recently from their own homes. To make matters worse the town is plagued by ghosts, invisible yet dangerous. They attack by manipulating the environment, throwing knives, tables and even people across a room. The town has descended into chaos and are in desperate need of help.



Team One

There has been some investigation into the missing people and there have been rumours of cries for help in the woods.

A thick, dark, slightly scary woods. The townspeople who are left have lanterns to borrow and promises that the path is safe and easy to follow. Don't worry about that howling, it's just the wind...

Team One must make their way through the woods to find the missing townspeople. Unfortunately for the Voidtreckers the cries and calls for help don't come from the safe paths and so they must move through the undergrowth to find the lost and confused townspeople. What's that creaking noise? Is that a shadow? What lurks in the bushes?


Team Two

Back in the village team two must try and help the villagers who are plagued by ghosts. The ghosts roam around unhindered by walls or doors. Sometimes they are just mischievous, blowing out lanterns, knocking books off shelves. Other times they are violent, throwing objects, throwing people, locking people in or out of their houses.

Protecting people against invisible enemies is no easy task. Help the town gather together, set up barricades, try and hide any dangerous objects before they can be used against the townspeople.

Or perhaps try out some traditional ghostbusting techniques. What harm can it do?

Team Three

Of course all this must have been caused by something. It seems some of the towns teenagers had found a strange cave in their ramblings not a week before. It had been full of strange objects, small gems, daggers, ancient books.

All the sort of things that probably should not be taken from their ancient resting place but of course someone had taken something. Maybe. Few of the teenagers are willing to talk and those that do are unwilling to get their friends into trouble.

Investigate, try and convince them to do the right thing. Round up the items that have been taken and return them to the cave. Hopefully that will end this nightmare!

That sure was a sinking feeling in his chest now.

"Then... perhaps I was wrong. Very wrong," he said in a whisper. "You... might be the first." That... that was all kinds of problematic. For Link. And meant that Clef couldn't even offer help because on top of the risk of a flaw... if his actions might somehow cause his Link to never be born.....

He relaxed ever so slightly, even if he was unnerved by the talk of reincarnation.

“You... aren’t trying to study up to bring him back?”

She shook her head, she didn't know what those were. Heartless. Dusks. Eagulls...

Wait. Eagulls.

"Did... did you used to be smaller?"

“...well, once upon a time, yes.”

He was a little amused, and smiled easily at the question.

[personal profile] guru_clef 2020-10-23 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Clef jumped as if slapped. "What? No! Of course not! The other side of the deal I made with my boy was that if I studied and understood he would let me fight ALONG SIDE HIM if Ganon ever showed up. the closest I might ever come is reading up on the theory...but that would be for your sake and Zelda's not his and even then... I do not think I would ever do such a thing. I want to keep you, any you, alive as best I can while you are alive. But you've been forced to live so many times my boy, and so few of those lives have been kind. As much as I would miss you, do miss you, I do not think I could ever be so selfish or so cruel as to do that unless I knew you had expressly wanted me to."

"Oh1 Then I think I do know you... you were the one that helped me fight Eagulls back at the school!" she said, startled.

Also curious. Because she'd never actually known anyone long enough to see them grow up in any meaningful way. At least... not physically.

[personal profile] sevenyearsasleep 2020-10-23 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Link stared at Clef.

“I think you’re mistaken. I’m the Hero of Time, yeah, but, I’m not...I have only lived this life.”
guru_clef: (Insecure)

[personal profile] guru_clef 2020-10-23 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
He hesitated, then... "Would you allow me to show you something? With my magic I can make an illusion from my memories. Show you the you I remember."
sevenyearsasleep: (clipped view)

[personal profile] sevenyearsasleep 2020-10-23 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Link nodded slowly, if a bit wary.

That didn’t sound familiar. But, fighting monsters was something he did from time to time.

“A school? In Termina?”
guru_clef: (Mahou)

[personal profile] guru_clef 2020-10-23 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
He focused on the area before him and a scene unfolded, as seen from Clef's POV, which was... perhaps odd at times. Especially the points at which he was on the ceiling. But it was one of his memories of his son, of their relationship, where they discussed among other things, Shadow and reincarnation.

“That’s me.”

Truthfully, he didn’t understand most of what the two had discussed in the vision. But, that tunic was unmistakable, as were the golden triangles on his hand.

“But, I don’t remember that happening.”
guru_clef: (Uplifting smile)

[personal profile] guru_clef 2020-10-24 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
"That is the version of you that I know, though that is not always how he looks. Generally he looks more like..." another scene unfolded, again from Clef's point of view. It was one of his favorite Naut memories. "This. This is my Link, my son."
sevenyearsasleep: (Default)

[personal profile] sevenyearsasleep 2020-10-24 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Link silently pulled a familiar blue instrument from his jacket.

“The Ocarina of Time. Those...those are my songs. That’s me. I don’t remember any of it, but, that’s—“

He put the instrument to his lips and played that lullaby, note for note, swaying slightly as he played, eyes shut.
guru_clef: (Looks 10)

[personal profile] guru_clef 2020-10-24 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
He nodded, and once Link finished, he touched his arm lightly. "That is why I know you are you, even if you fail to remember me. Even with different memories, you are you, Link. And even if you do not consider me your father, you will always be my son."

Zechs took the blade back, testing his grip on the hilt. Whatever Koumyou had done, it didn't seem to affect the balance of the blade or its mass. Interesting. He offered the priest a smirk. "I can be quick, be assured."

And since it was needed, and he wouldn't fall short of the challenge given, he sprinted after Koumyou. Time to finish this, and get these people home.

[personal profile] its_dad_sanzo 2020-10-24 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Koumyou ran until not only were things being thrown at them -- rocks, sticks, the odd item a villager had dropped earlier -- but being thrown at them from all directions. Only then, he dropped down on one bent leg and swept his other foot out into the dust, putting all his momentum into kicking up as much dirt as he could.

It went up like a cloud, and instead of immediately heading for the ground again, it swirled in the air like a giant, lazy dust devil. Visibility was suddenly far lower, the dust in the moonlight almost blinding in some places and almost pitch black in others.

But there was a faint distortion in the cloud there, and here, and over there. Ghosts!

Link wasn’t sure what to think. Or feel. Since he’d returned from Termina with no luck finding Navi, he’d been working on Lon Lon Ranch, and, on occasion, training recruits at the castle.

“What’s her name? My fairy.”

It was a test. He was still cautious.

i have been informed we are missing out on established merry little voidtrain lore

[[ this series is COMPLEX and apparently kheli is a woman?? oh well. i stand by her having a female crewmate with a crush. this is my contribution. i am me. ]]

Ken pauses too, though Wormmon is too busy imagining defying even scary things like SNAKES to protect Ken-chan to be part of this conversation. Taichi-senpai....?

He didn't imagine that, right. Something's wrong.

"It's....never easy," he acknowledges. "Never."

But it's worth it. Every single time. Ken will stand up as many times as it takes.

...Oh, that's an odd thought. At this age, Taichi-senpai wouldn't know what Ken's plans for the future are, because even the Ken he knows doesn't know....

This could get complicated.

[Emporio just, stares ultimately.]

....It's actually not October somehow, [Is what he eventually says, watching as the opossum scrambles for pumpkin.] They don't really have...normal months here.

...

Do you need help..?

Ah, this is-- true, yes--

[He's straining a little bit as he reaches over the table and attempts to pluck the little marsupial off a plate, but she scurries under his fingers and away from his side of things. Apparently, something closer to Emporio is suddenly more appealing.]

It.. would seem I do, yes. [Peridot is presently investigating a whole pumpkin, nibbling lightly on the remains of the stem before attempting to fit its circumference in her mouth.]

Takato had... He'd always hoped that the last battle in Taichi-san's world had been the end of it. But that was..

That was such a terrible thing that he could barely even imagine having to make that decision. He still remembered the brief glimpse he'd seen of the Digital World in his own world after the D-Reaper had attacked. It had been horrible. But to reboot the entire world...

"Your partners? Are they okay?" Agumon had sounded okay when he'd been talking before. But if he'd been infected with that?

[personal profile] zechs_isonfire 2020-10-24 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Zechs was good at dodging, but there were a lot of objects. He prioritizes - avoid blows to the head, his hands and forearms - avoid large sharp piercing things, avoid very large rocks - and anything else, well. He'd endure. And he'd make certain the priest suffered no serious blows, either, best he could.

It's obvious very quickly, why Koumyou kicked up all that dust, perhaps used some magic (?) to make it swirl in the air. He didn't need much visibility. He needed to know where the priest was, to avoid him and keep him safe. And he needed to know where the targets were - that the reduced visibility revealed.

Decisively, he sliced through the distortions, the magic on his blade giving the strikes lethality. He would move fast, before the dust settled - breathing hard once it was over, sore and smarting all over.

Grinning wickedly.
its_dad_sanzo: (concern)

[personal profile] its_dad_sanzo 2020-10-24 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
As for Koumyou, he spent the next several moments spitting out dirt and wiping his eyes clean as the dust settled back to the ground.

And whining, of course. "That trick is so much cleaner with snow!"
