( the test drive meme )


This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before the applications open, see what clicks. Multiples will be allowed for this post, and you can generally assume any threads are a self-contained continuity unless you feel like getting creative.

Just post a thread with your CHARACTER NAME and CANON NAME in the title with a prompt and others will reply. Prompts and threads can be action spam or prose or whatever. These threads can be used on the sample section of your application, as well. Go out and have fun! Feel free to consult the institute tour and dorm guide for setting info. We also encourage you to check out the "!!event" tag on the IC comms to brush up on the story so far.

The chopsticks removed the ham and set it aside. It wasn't the end of the world and he wasn't throwing a fit over it, he just simply didn't want any ham. The technician looked up at Archer and nodded. "While it's true that it would be better, I simply don't have the time. The Danger Room is being reworked and retooled for some much needed upgrades that I spend more time in that pit than out in the open. This is one of those rare days where I can get a little sun before I go back in there."

His own teen years were filled with confusion and doubt that he didn't know which way was up until he was sent to America for schooling. He was a quiet one most of the time that kept to himself.

"I shouldn't complain." He turned his attention back to his bento.

Archer just shrugged, which was, perhaps, not the most sympathetic response in the world. "Complain all you want. Just don't be surprised when it's treated like what it is." Then, in what might have been some vague attempt to actually be helpful, he added, "They still let you sleep in a bed, don't they? So make it before you turn in for the night."

He didn't get the chance to finish his lunch before he lost his appetite completely. He wasn't about to argue and he certainly wasn't in the mood to argue. Skilled hands closed up the box and slid it back into its holder.

Whoever this person is, he touched on a very sensitive matter and it was Lee's own fault that he landed himself in that position despite the demotion and even worse, he wasn't about to say why he was put there.

In a dignified manner, Lee stood up from his seat, picked up his box. It was back to work and now he was beginning to feel bitter.

"It was nice speaking with you. Good day." He bowed before he turned and walked away.
