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 she just continues like this is a totally normal occurrence.

"I suppose, but it may be worth it if they're being sold so quickly!"

She smiles and takes a glance around at the crowds.

"Everything here looks delicious, though. And so many things I've never seen or even heard of before."

...well, if she doesn't want to bring it up, it would probably be rude to do so. Rena smiles back, as she would to anyone else of a less incorporeal sort of state.

"Mmm, there's certainly so much here, isn't there? Most of it's new to me, too, so..."

Seeing something as familiar as her favorite cake, even if it wasn't quite exactly the same, had a strange comfort to it, too.

"I think I'm going to end up trying quite a few different snacks myself, once I can ask somebody to return here for me before we're due to depart."

She leans in after that, close to Rena as she lowers her voice.

"I think that woman is interested in this stand as well! So if you want to try the cake, I think you're in a bit of a race for it, now."

She was about to ask about that one bit, 'ask somebody to return here for me', but with that prompt reminder--

"Ah! Excuse me, I--!"

Turning around quickly to procure the cake. FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS.
