( 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.

Yes, a few years ago sounds about right. Things just aren't the same when you two aren't around.

[You do realize she's not going to stop unless you ask her to, right? Because she is pretty damn happy right now.]

Yes it has. Same for Marisa-san.

It gets quiet that quickly? But time flies when stuff keeps happenin'

Maybe this weekend once ya are all settled in and as long as there ain't any huge projects that someone wants to assign on us, We can all head in ta town or somethin'

[Classes are for people who follow rules. Nue watches Marisa for a moment. Being around others with...abnormal abilities was still new to her. It was exciting, but she was wary at the same time. They might not be as easy to frighten as humans.]

Probably not. I'm just looking around.

[Nue gives her a smile that probably looks pretty creepy, no matter how she appears to the other girl.]

[If there was one thing Kid definitely was, it was observant. When Sado started looming over towards kid, he certainly noticed his massive shadow. He would have said something sooner, but this..argh...wardrobe was giving him so much trouble. Honestly, he was stronger than his small frame would imply, but this piece of furniture was too much for even him.

Thank god for Sado, at any rate.]

...it would be appreciated, yes.

[Unfortunately, there did seem to be a rather large number of heavy objects in this school, many of which Kid was not able to move on his own. This wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the fact that MOST OF THEM WEREN'T IN THE PROPER ORDER...

It was infuriating. Still, at least he was able to remain calm when Celty tapped him on the shoulder.]

Yes? What is it?

[He hasn't noticed that logo yet. But he will very shortly...]

Yeah, well... We're all back together again. So there's nothing to worry about.

-Oh but you get a full view of Juri here, Nue. Along with that creepy Eye of hers.-

Ah, the new kid's bored? Can't have that~

That's not your real name, is it? I'd be embarrassed to have one like that. [This girl looks entirely unconvinced.] Well, whatever. A name's a name, I guess. Beats having to call you "hey you" or something equally lazy.

Mine's Ashley.

[And no, she isn't going to comment on that OCD.]

I assure you, it is indeed my real name; one I see nothing wrong with it.

[Except that he can never get the "K" juuuust right.]

Consider it noted. I very rarely forget a name, Ashley.

Edited (how did I mess that up...) 2013-03-08 21:10 (UTC)

I am. Going to entertain me?~

I think I can help, at least.

I'm listening.

Sure. [She's obviously not buying it, Kid. But, at the same time, she really doesn't feel like pressing it, so she's content to just leave it alone.]

So you're new too, huh? [There is a very, very obvious touch of apathy in her voice; Ashley is just about entirely uninterested in being here.]

ooc request: Please use prose if responding to this with ACTION, or commentspam if having your character call her out on the NETWORK during the day; I'd like to have the option of using this for both 1st- and 3rd-person samples.

The rumors had started about two weeks ago: after sundown but before curfew, a strange shadowy creature could be seen—but never heard—lurking within the hedge maze.

While it had the look of a fantasy novel monster each and every time, it was never the same creature twice according to the students who claimed to have seen it. While the younger and easily-frightened never drew close enough to find out for certain what it was, the older and more-daring would approach the creature only to watch it vanish immediately, leaving behind not a single trace of its existence.

Those who were savvy enough, however, were quick to realize that the cause of the hedge maze monsters was likely one of the newer students, possibly seeking to practice with his or her power without other people nearby to serve as a distraction. Or, perhaps, they wanted to be alone and were using their power in an effort to intimidate others into staying away.

The grown man wandering the maze that night was not a savvy student, nor was he a daring thrill-seeker. Instead, the exhausted man making his way through the hedges in the dark was none other than Yasuhiro Hagakure: Janitor.

He had gotten lost in the hedge maze somewhere around 11 AM and had remained lost throughout the day. Long since having given up any hope of being rescued, the tired custodian feebly walked aimlessly for hours.

That is, of course, until he turned a corner and practically bumped right into tonight's fantasy novel monster.

His scream is surprisingly high-pitched for such a tall guy.

[Network/Voice]

[Muffled sobbing and crying in what could possibly be Japanese. It's hard to distinguish. Eventually it quiets down and he begins to speak.]

This is Yasu- er... This is Mr. Hagakure, the school custodian, speaking.

I got lost in the hedge maze again, right? I've been stuck in here for a couple of hours now, and I'm starting to get really hungry.

Please send help! I don't want to die out here!

It was quite a feat, really, both being lost in the hedge maze—which wasn't an excessively large one—and the scream. Almost immediately, the 'monster' vanished into nothing by quickly melting away into the shadows, only to be replaced moments later by Ashley turning the nearby corner and coming into view. Judging by her expression, she was kind of amused, especially by how the person reacting was an adult rather than one of her fellow students, but at the same time she was also kind of not.

"Do you mind? The screaming is a bit distracting."

She would have preferred to remain uninterrupted, honestly.

It really was. Hagakure knows full well how small the maze is, but he had been relying on his premonitions to guide him out of there. His powers of precognition being what they were, he ended up more wrong turns than right ones.

Hagakure stares in terror at the place where the beast previously was for a few moments, as if it might reappear as quickly as it had vanished, before even acknowledging the girl's presence. Only then does he stop shrieking.

"O-Oh! Oh, that was just you, then, right? Sorry." His voice had regained a bit of its depth. "Are you a student? Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm glad I'm not the only one lost in here."

[ Socially approaching someone: success.

...sort of.

More or less. It's just not so bad to be able to help out once in a while. ]

I would like to. [ He scopes out the room in terms of seeing where the rest of the furniture got to in this rearrangement spree. ] Where is it going?

Let's make a little chaos, shall we?

I know a way we can copy the Principal's voice. Do a little 'announcement' making.

[Creepy smile or not, does not phase her much. Which will just get her to smile like she usually would]

New around here I'm guessin'? The place is so big, ya might be lookin' around for a week or so.

[Bookmark placed in the book and set down. Marisa will give her full attention to the person in front of her.]

I don't think you need to worry about dying out there...

[ The 'again' does not escape him. Neither do the dramatics, of course, but that sort of thing is just what people do anyway. Maybe someone should talk to this man about custodial duties of the hedge maze being able to wait until he knows it better, or something of that nature.

But then again, who is he to judge? Those things are designed to confuse the people going through them. ]

Please don't move, Hagakure-san.

I haven't been here very long at all.

[She takes a few steps closer.]

If I put my mind to it, I'm sure it wouldn't take long to explore this place.

What're you reading?

I'm game.~

Sounds good to me.
