This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before the game opens, 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.

Yeah, thank you. I couldn't tell.

[He pops a lollipop in his mouth and scoots closer to look at it. Yup sure is blue. Realistically Kariya is not a good tech support guy because A) he doesn't care and B) he knows fuckall about Macs either. After a second he finds the power button, though, and holds it down till the thing turns off.]

[Meenah rolls her eyes.]

I could have turned it off, ya know.

Yeah, but you didn't. That'll be fifty bucks. [tech support rates :)]
polishedgold: (loathing)

[personal profile] polishedgold 2012-11-07 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
What the hell?! No way!
itsbeanpaste: (and don't worry)

[personal profile] itsbeanpaste 2012-11-07 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
And for another fifty I'll turn it back on.

[yeah he's just fucking around now.]
polishedgold: (hmph)

[personal profile] polishedgold 2012-11-07 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, screw you!

[She saw him turn it off, so at least she can find the power button.]

You're a real pain, you know that?

I aim to please. [And he rolls back over to the computer he was using, just in time to not see that Meenah's machine just booted straight to another blue screen.]

...Oh, SCROD CLAMIT!

[She really wants to just bust the computer, but even she realizes that would be a bad idea. She takes a deep breath, finds it utterly unhelpful, and then stomps over to Koki.]

Hey, you!

[Letting his head hang upside-down over his seat back. Sounds like it's still broken? Weird, rebooting usually works. Then again he knows fuckall about Macs.]

Sup.

You didn't. Glubbing. Fix it.
itsbeanpaste: (in the end we lie awake)

[personal profile] itsbeanpaste 2012-11-07 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? Then I'd be happy to give you a refund.

[kariya stop intentionally provoking angry pink girls it's not good for you]

[And Meenah is just going to kick the back of his chair now. B|]
itsbeanpaste: (so come over)

[personal profile] itsbeanpaste 2012-11-07 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ow. Okay, fine, geez. He sighs, turns the chair around, and gets up with a great show of not wanting to get up. It may be noted that he is a really tall son of a gun, except the slouch takes a few inches off. Anyway he traipses over to the computer to have a look.]

I don't know what you expect me to do. It's not like I'm one of those computer whisperers.
