Test Drive 037

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.

Happy testing!



Literary Devices

The library is a double carriage. Downstairs is brightly-coloured, with cover posters across the walls, tables and chairs in the strong colours of the team uniforms, and a wooden model train placed as though winding its way through the carriage with carriages of shelves in tow. The walls are shelving, and beanbags litter the floor. Upstairs is quieter, rows of nonfiction shelves with private desks at the end of each row; the sound up here is muffled.

You don't know who, you don't know why, but someone or something has had a bad power day. How do you know? Well, the fact that the characters of any book you read keep coming to life as tiny versions of themselves and running riot around the carriage... that might have been a clue.

You just wish you'd picked a different book before realising it.


Storage Wars

The kitchen now sprawls over two floors. Banks of industrial electric ovens, a long, steel countertop facing them. Cupboards full of oven trays and pans, racks of implements and appliances. On the first floor, sinks and modern appliances, and cupboards full of crockery.

This month, the month of Ravioli, the recipes are centred around chocolate. Chicken Mole, chocolate ravioli, cocoa chilli… it may begin to taste a little sickly sweet after the first week. Fortunately, there’s plenty of room for experimentation as people start to beg for other meals. And a lot of chocolate going spare.

And when the preparation is finished, and the meals have been sent over to the dining carriage… there are stacks, and stacks, and stacks of plates. Pots. Cutlery. And no dishwashers.

Well, no, that’s not strictly true. You’re there.


Unplugged


The latest mission has the Voidtreckers in a strangely barren city, its citizens wearing skinsuits, wired gloves and headsets. Just like the ones the dressing car put you all in..? It makes more sense when you turn on the visor and the world comes alive around you. Welcome to Amp Online! The danger this time is in the virtual world overlaid with the physical, as a wave of animal-themed viruses sweep through the cyberscape, destroying livelihoods, and perhaps lives.


Team One

Primarily the fighting is limited to the virtual world. The locals are happy to upload basic combat software into Team One's gear, but the good stuff is locked behind paywalls. Hackable paywalls, definitely, but, luckily, the viruses seem to be dropping something called amp-cred when slain. Which... is apparently money, because the balance in the corner of your vision just ticked up. Time to grind. Wait, are those... limited edition skins?

Team Two

The technicians and sysads insist that the viruses are totally foreign to Amp Online. So... where did they come from? Team Two is tasked with deep-diving into the network, through back-end servers rendered by their gear into dungeon-like labyrinths. The 'monster' viruses are fewer here, but instead, paths are blocked by worms and barrier-like popups. You all have tracking apps and hacking software that looks oddly gamified. Go!

Team Three

Not all threats are online - after a while, a virus manages to follow a link back to the real world, and hijack something. A combat drone, a refridgerator, someone's car... Another follows, and another. Team Three are ejected from Amp Online to troubleshoot in the physical world, protecting data centers and civilian housing stacks from rogue machinery... or their own smart-homes. Ever fought a toaster? Alexa, play Ride of the Valkyries.

1)[Network Post]:

[Wufei rubbed his forehead with annoyance, clearly not pleased with everything going on. He had just gotten done taking care of their problems back home and now he was supposed to clean up someone else's mess? Let alone the technology here they had to offer was pretty....basic compared to what he was used to working with.

He was finally content with the idea of having a regular life. Well as a regular life as one can be involved with the military. At least he was no longer having to hide or change from different alliances.]

.....Why do I have to keep on fighting? I am tired of having to fight. I didn't want to fight then and I don't want to fight now. I fought anyway despite my desires. I only hope we have a purpose here and that our interferences isn't going to create something more chaostrophic later.


[His own colony had sacrificed themselves to not be involved in the war itself. As much as he didn't want to fight he knew he couldn't ignore the fight either. Not if it meant other worlds could be saved and not have to go through what his went through and others.]

2) Training rooms:

[Wufei can be found in the training rooms practicing his martial arts. He didn't want to be rusty and it was something to do. He didn't have a huge schedule to follow and he hated having idle time. He often used this time to practice or to meditate. He didn't have his sword here to train with so he worked with what ever weaponary they had to learn. After all it was always best to have other means to fight with. Should someone else be in the room he may be watching from the side lines studying the other's way of fighting. Or he may simply ignore them.]

3) Wildcard:

Feel free to write your own prompt.

[Part of Duo wasn't surprised, but another part was surprised that someone was actually using the training room. Honestly, he could do with or without it for himself. He was mainly exploring the rest of the train to see what was around. He leaned against the wall with a smirk, wondering how long it would take for the familiar form to realize he was there.]

Yeah!

Maxwell, are you going to continue to sulk or join in?

[Wufei commented, not even turning his head to meet the other. He had worked with the other for a long time to eaisly tell his comrade was near by. It made him curious to know if the other pilots were around as well.]

[personal profile] divine_braid 2022-06-24 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
Who said anything about sulking?

[Duo rolled his eyes.]

I'm just waiting to see if you mess up.

No one has told you that you don't need to fight? You get to choose how you participate on missions, including not at all.

[ There are a number of people who don't fight on principle and yet get placed on the team knowing for doing just that.

If Wufei doesn't want to fight, then he doesn't have to. Whether Wufei's conscious is okay with sitting out is another matter.

I. Storage Wars 🌞

[The good news about stacks and stacks of dirty dishes with no dishwasher? There is a very tall animatronic who absolutely hates disorder.]

Clean up~! Clean up~!

[Sun is humming tunelessly as he sticks his arms elbow-deep into the water. Good thing his appendages are waterproof! He's making pretty good time, but he does flit around as the dishes stack up a little too haphazardly. He'll comment to anyone nearby,]

Holy moly, this is a real mess! I forgot how sticky chocolate can be! Could you set these out to dry, pretty please?

2. Open Prompt 🌕



[The Daycare Attendant has a very strict schedule.

As long as there is light, he flitters around, happily doing chores and helping out wherever he's needed. But when the dark comes, he locks himself away in the coaches. He is never seen when the lights are out. Primarily because Sun doesn't exist when the lights go out.

Moon, on the other hand, sticks to the ceilings, out of the way and simply... watching. The security routine is still embedded in his coding, so he patrols, sticking to the darkest corners of the rooms. The bright red flare of his infrared vision is the only real sign he's there at all, but occasionally, you might hear the quiet jingling of bells or the hum of what sounds like a lullaby.]

1.[Network Post]:
[The camera opens to an entirely too close up image as Usagi scrambles to sit back and get away from the screen. Her cheeks are lightly dusted with pink that matches all too well with her hair.]

Sorry about that. [Usagi smiles sheepishly, twisting a strand of one pigtail between her fingers for a moment.] I've just been thinking. There are people from all over the Universe on this train, right?

[Usagi smiles, red eyes gleaming brightly as she leans forward a little bit, eager for this next bit.]

You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to, but I was wondering what the stories and myths were like where everyone else is from? I've been interested in mythology ever since I was little, because the world I'm from well...

[She trails off for a moment, the pink colour returning to her cheeks again. It's always been a sore point for her, how she doesn't really feel like she lives up to the family legacy so to speak.]

My grandmother in a sense is known by many to be a Goddess. So I've always been fascinated by myths and wondering what part of those legends might actually be true. So I'd love to hear about stories from other people's worlds!

Thank you! Bye Bye!

[She bows slightly before waving and reaching back in to turn her camera off again.]

2. Unplugged - Team Three:
"Golden Moon Dreaming Kiss!"

The attack and subsequent golden light flash fill the room brightly for only a brief moment, before revealing a somewhat amused looking young woman who wore what some would call a very stylish, pretty even combat uniform.

"And dusted!" She announced to a local cheerfully, winking at them before scanning the area again senses on high alert. Sailor Neo Moon couldn't exactly say she's used to fighting vending machines, but given her life up to this point? She couldn't even say that she found it that weird. And Honestly? It's a welcome change from things that could kill her a lot easier.

Hearing a crash that sounded far more ominous than the vending machine, she jerked in it's direction only to stop because someone else seemed to be engaged with the trouble maker. Instead of darting in and getting in the way, Sailor Neo Moon stopped and called out instead.

"Hey! You good over here or would you like some help?"

Things are fine over here! It'll take more than a few haywire appliances to be a threat to me.

[Things had been a bit awkward ever since Usagi Jr. had arrived on the train. Meeting your girlfriend's daughter from an alternate future does that. Kyoko still wasn't quite sure how to talk to her.]
neomoonrising: ([SNM] I know you think that)

Re: Unplugged

[personal profile] neomoonrising 2022-07-20 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[If anything? From the looks of it, Kyoko was probably more equipped for dealing with such small fry 'bad guys' than Neo Moon was herself. The Moon line has always been more about big finishing magic than anything else. It's kind of like shooting a fly instead of just swatting it so to speak.]

I figured! But it seemed rude to not at least offer, you know?

[Yeah... it's been a little awkward, but not as awkward as it could have been. Honestly, for now she was just chalking it up to strange alternate universe shenanigans. She's lived in two different universes even before all of this happened. That doesn't mean it wasn't still a little unsettling seeing her mama dating someone not her papa, but... well, that's not really her mama anyway so it's ultimately none of her business.]

"I'd really love it, y'know?!"

Usagi wasn't used to seeing her at all. She was someone from another time, another place...

And yet, darn it, that's her kid and she would protect her and she would do the same for her!

At least, Usagi hoped so as a group of washing machines was chasing her and not giving her the chance to fight back.
neomoonrising: ([SNM] All that was then)

[personal profile] neomoonrising 2022-07-20 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
"Don't worry, I've got you!"

As she wasn't being chased, it's easy to launch an attack at them. The casual tiara toss showcasing both Sailor Neo Moon's relative disdain for their current 'enemies' and her desire to not step on Sailor Moon's boots so to speak. Because it doesn't blast all of them being such a low level ability, but it's more than enough to give the senior senshi room to catch a breath and fight back properly.

Effectively, she was just making sure not to grandstand too much. No one likes a show off after all and she wanted these strange new versions of familiar people to like her.

"They're all yours Sailor Moon!"

“Thanks a lot!”

Summoning her Moon Stick and holding it high, she let its full power go, striking down the machines and returning them to normal.

With a soft sigh, she went to join Neo Moon.

“Thanks. I needed that.”
