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!

[... Well, Slipstream can't deny that her attention's been caught.

Either this 'Con is lying, or something very weird is happening here. Weirder than being teleported through space and time and probably universes.

... Universes, huh?]


... Oh, I beg your pardon, Starscream. I didn't realize I was in the presence of the most famous Decepticon trait-- I mean, leader, ever. I suppose news of the war ending didn't reach my end of the galaxy before I was brought here!

[She smiles. It's not a terribly pleasant one.]

So, tell me, oh leader, how did you take care of all the Autobots, too? I'm sure it's a fascinating story.

( Traitor? Oh, he supposes the Decepticons might see it that way, he's certain Soundwave does. But what has Soundwave ever been but completely loyal to Megatron and blind to everything else? At least Shockwave never pretended to be ruled by anything other than logic.

He's not sure where the Deception that's in front of him stands, but he's going to keep an optic out on her. If her smile is anything to go by, he'll need to. )


The people of Cybertron want a world without reminders and allegiances from the war. As their elected leader ( Primus, does he love that bit. ) it was my duty to see that they got what they wanted - I exiled both Autobots and Decepticons.

[Elected? Elected. The only thing Slipstream could imagine her Starscream getting elected for is being shot to slag and dumped in a black hole, and this one doesn't seem that different.

She can't hold back a bark of derisive laughter.]


Boy, am I glad I'm from a universe where you've been decapitated. [Last she knew, at least, and she's not terribly interested in finding out otherwise unless it means she can shoot her progenitor in the face a few dozen times.]
