Test Drive Meme

Did you want to test your characters? Do you want something that you can use for an RP sample without digging up an old thread? Well, here you have it. Pick one or multiple prompts below or, if you want, make a prompt of your own. Just be sure to tag around so that everyone gets plenty of exposure.

1: Explosions in space! Space Bandits attacked the space colony everyone was visiting! Dozens of fighters and mobile armors fly through space, locked in deadly combat. Are you among those battling to save lives? Or are you watching from the windows, praying everything will be safe?

2: Explosions underground! You were part of a trading party, exchanging supplies with an underground penal colony when alien animals burrowed through the walls and started assaulting convict and Confederation member alike! What are you going to do?

3: Explosions over the city! The Colosseum is shooting off fireworks as part of a concert or a sporting event! Are you watching in the crowd, a main attraction, or watching the bright colors from the city?

4: Explosions on an asteroid! You're either observing, guarding, or mining an asteroid! It's rather dull, save for the explosions that rock the ground under your feet. It looks like it'll continue to be just as slow, but... was that something moving in the shadows there?

5: Explosions on a space station! As you approached a research station, you receive a distress signal! Fire's broken out and their systems aren't up to spec! Can you do anything? Are you a part of a scouting crew or out for a joyride in your new yacht? And is this an accident, or something more sinister?

6: Explosions at the gym! Explosive competition! Swimming, weightlifting, running, boxing, someone has just challenged you! Whether they know it or not, you're going to do your best to show them up.

7: Explosions in the past! A star has died! The Fleet is flying through the nebula it left behind, with swirls of beauty as far as the eye can see. If you're the type, you can watch it all you like.

8: Explosions on the road! Most of the traffic on the Teuberg is computer controlled, but some young showoff took his off the grid and promptly caused a wreck! Traffic has been backed up for almost half an hour now, with no way out for you and the people in your vehicle. Are you close enough to see if anyone needs help? Or are you just stuck with people who are as late for their appointments as you are?

9: Explosions in the marketplace! Explosive bargains! You're in a trading hub, surrounded by stalls of all kinds selling every type of merchandise you can imagine! Luckily, you've got enough money to handle a few purchases here. Will you buy one of those daggers on display? An incense burner? Some alien fruit? Or maybe you're on the run from the corrupt guards? Or perhaps you're the one doing the chasing, did someone just steal your wallet?

10: Explosions in your mind! The explosive inspiration that drives this world! Make up your own prompt!

And with that promise, Dhianeila amended her last message to the captain. "Captain, please double-check our readings as we approached the space station, there may be signs of one of the escape pods launching before our arrival."

Things seemed to be okay otherwise, though. Another one of the crewmembers checked in with a couple of other scientists from a hallway on the other end of the station. "I'm sorry," Dhianeila apologized to the scientists, because this must have been quite the ordeal for them not even counting this Decker person. "I am glad you are all okay, though. We will get you anything you need once we get you on board our ship."

[considers the situation using all of his intelligence, all of his training among the manotaurs....

And the fact that he thinks it is Mabel

Which is to say he simply tries to slap the gun out of Zim's hand casually]

NEVER.

[Explosions on an asteroid! Tash takes her Starfly, a bright yellow starship barely larger than a pickup truck, around and over the asteroid's cratered surface, counting the markerposts and suited personnel. At fourteen she's too young to be assigned difficult work but is allowed to survey and observe. Which is boring. Sighing, she activates the comm.]

Nothing out of the ordinary yet. Over.

[10 is also open.]

"The city is rather crowded. I've already looked around, though. It's very beautiful, isn't it?"

She then tilted her head at him, with a smiiiiiiile. "What are you doing out here, Setsuna?"

Wish it was, sometimes.

[The words are heavy enough, but then Tron speaks from experience.]
nobleminded: (insistendo)

somebody has to do all the yelling...

[personal profile] nobleminded 2014-01-17 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow, sucks to be him. Maybe the nobility of your world needs to reconsider that set up. ...No offense, stranger.]

Then you shouldn't even be wasting time looking at that thing!

[And if he knew that, he'd tell you how it's the definition of a problem Also the guy trying to sell it really loves Elliot right now...]

[Tash shrinks back in her seat, staring. She's Force-Sensitive, but untrained, and has been sneaking covert looks at Meetra since boarding the car. She can sense... something about the woman, a kind of fascination or draw that makes her heart race, and it reminds her of the few non-hostile Jedi and semi-Jedi she's met. But you don't just come up to someone and ask that. Tash is too accustomed to living in the era of the Empire, when Force Sensitivity is a dangerous thing to admit to.]

Don't we all. It always weighs heavily on the present. Sometimes moreso than at others.

[It lets out an EAR PIERCING SHRIEK!]

You.... You CARELESS FOOL! DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A SUB GRADE ZAPOMATIC BREAKS OR IS JARRED EVEN SLIGHTLY!?

HORRORS Be... yond....

[Elliot follow, but not because of Oz's insistence. Rather, he's just getting pissed that the other teen is clearly ignoring him.]

ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME, OZ VESSALIUS?! YOU-
i_have_organs: (** No really?)

[personal profile] i_have_organs 2014-01-17 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.... hey.

Guess it was okay.

That's a first.
nobleminded: (poco a poco)

[personal profile] nobleminded 2014-01-17 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Just then he glances in the direction Oz has been looking.]

What is that?

[Attention, Sections A. B. B1 through 17. C. D. Zeta. There has been an absolute breech of the hull. Attack detected.

I repeat. Attack detected.

[Zim points at Dipper.]

He did it.
ja307020: (looking back)

[personal profile] ja307020 2014-01-17 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
Guess you can't win. Can't forget or it creeps back, and remembering is hard too.

[He looks up at the fireworks.]

But you lose if you don't play the game, either.

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2014-01-17 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Mabel, why did you have a REAL WEAPON? We talked about this!
alittlemystery: (Is it pop or soda? Or soft drink?)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2014-01-17 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
And it was her fault.

[points at Zim]
starburned: (space is too big)

[personal profile] starburned 2014-01-17 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Can see where that'd throw a body off.

[It's not the language that's giving Del any particular trouble. More the scale of things, and maybe to some extent the philosophies behind the Confederation.

But she likes to think she's adapting pretty well. Del gestures around at the market.]

Biggest difference on my end's all the not-human folk. Humankind's about decided we're on our own, where I'm from.
starburned: (fight me)

[personal profile] starburned 2014-01-17 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Better'n nothing.

[Something scuttles in a side corridor, and Del trains her weapon in that direction, tense and ready to fire -- until it resolves into the shape of someone in a convict's uniform.]

[personal profile] starburned 2014-01-17 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
[. . . okay then. Seems only fair given her role in getting him sticky to begin with. She nods and turns to weave through the crowd, tense and energetic in her motions, quite pointedly not getting close to bumping anyone else until they reach the small open plaza where said fountain is located.]
