test drive meme # 36

Welcome to Hadriel's test drive, and thank you again for your interest in the game! As always, our reserves page is here, and our applications page is here! Reserves open September 24th, and apps are open October 1st. Please remember that there is an app cap of 20 apps.

Two quick points here as well:
1. Any thread made in Hadriel's test drive will be accepted as the sole Action Log sample in the application.
2. All threads made in the test drive can be considered game canon, either through handwaving or through a shared mental experience while coming through the Door!

Test drives will be broken up into specific god mini-events, during which your characters can see how well they fare under the watchful eye of one of the gods. Choose wisely or just simply pick 'em all, and have fun!

F E A R

SCENARIO ONE: GET YOUR RED CAPE READY
[The Door brings in all that is chaotic and evil in the world. This may include you, may include the person next to you... and may include the monster behind you.

You don't want to ride them- someone already tried that. Near you is a horselike beast, one without any fur or skin or anything that might make it more palatable. It's a Nuckelavee, a Nordic mythological creature which terrorizes the Northern Isles.

This demonic creature seems to embody that of a man merged with a horse- but not in the cute centaurian way. They are natural swimmers and emerge from the deep to drag their prey down into the water with them- so terrible that even the scent of their breath can sap you of all will to live. Better hold your own breath and look out!]

L O V E

SCENARIO TWO: GET YOU SOME
[You don't know where you are or where you're going- or what you're even doing in this strange city on the ocean- but you do know that you need someone by your side to make it better. Even if you don't know them, even if you hate them, there's something comforting to having another person so close to you.

Closer.

Physical contact with another person seems to put your mind completely at ease, erasing all of your worries and doing better for your mind than a hundred meditation sessions. So it's time to get friendly, even if you're not really that friendly of a person in the first place.

This is a mini version of our A Little Touchy Feely event this month.]

SCENARIO THREE: 15 MINUTES LATE WITH
[Good news! Love has decided that since other liquids seem to be all the rage amongst you humans and they somehow learned about Earth agricultural crops, they've decided to open up a coffee shop!

Here's the space to live out all of your coffee shop AUs in a Hadriel setting! With a storm brewing over the island and a merry pink glowcloud somehow creating caffeinated drinks on the spot when you order them, get ready to tuck in and get nice and cozy for a few minutes.

But uh-oh! Your name is misspelled! Or it's someone else's name entirely, but it's your drink. Or something about your order is wrong- whatever the case, Confusion definitely wouldn't just stand around and let Love have their fun. Somehow, everything is wrong in this poor coffeeshop... what are you going to do about it?]

[A scoff. Sorry Rubes, HE AIN'T BUYING IT.]

Yeah, right! How many times have you tripped over that thing? 'Cause I bet it's a fuckton.

For your information, I've never tripped on it!

[LIES LIES AND MORE LIES. She trips on it all the time don't tell anyone.]

So there! You're wrong. What do you have to say about that?

Well, I say-

[He pulls out his scythe and puts the blade near around Ruby's head.]

It still reeks of bullshit! So fucking rank-ass that I almost want to puke!

[Admittedly, he's not sure if she was lying or not. But either way, he doesn't want to think about it anymore. And he's feeling the itch to kill, so WELP.]

Edited ('it' not 'it's', whoopsies) 2018-09-28 16:42 (UTC)

Don't puke here! You can't! At least do it inside an airbag?

[ Nasty and concerning. ]

Do they have airbags here?

[Ruby thinks for a second and hands Zack a cup. Yeah, if you feel like puking use that.]

Huh?!

[recordscratch.avi

Zack stares hard for a moment. The heck is this, how is she able to ignore it, especially when she's not dead-looking like Ray?!]

Hey, shortie! You do know that I'm threatening? you right now? Do you even have a fucking sense of danger??

Edited 2018-09-29 05:04 (UTC)

Threatening?

[ Starts picking her nose. What.jpg. ]

The only thing threatening me is your stomach!! I don't wanna die....under puke..Yuck. There are better ways to do this.

[ She's not scared of him.]

[She has emotions. She can emote. People with emotions usually have to be afraid. Yet, she's not scared of him. What should he do, what can he do, what does he do now??

A tiny burble rises at the back of his throat.]

F-fuck- !!

[Sorry Ruby, did you like your boots? Too bad, 'cause Zack is actually gonna barf on them right now.]

[ Ew ,ew ,ew ,ew ,ew ,ew. Ruby doesn't like this.

Ruby doesn't like this at all.

She instinctively jumps up and screams. Her boots come flying off her feet...and they might land right in Zack's forehead if he doesn't watch.

INCOMING FLYING BOOTS with vomit on them, I guess. ]

[Thankfully, Zack lifts his head long enough to see dem boots and yelps and as he jumps out of the way.]

HEY, WATCH IT!! ARE YOU TRYING TO SPREAD SOME FUCKING GERMS AROUND HERE?!

[Despite the fact that he started it by puking on them first...]

Hey, it's not my fault. You're the one who went and vomited.

[Ruby screams and shakes her head. She's not putting her boots back on. NO.]

I told you your stomach was threatening me. YOU DIDN'T LISTEN!!

The fuck kind of- [Give him a moment as he hold back some vomit.] Uuuuugh!

[He points a finger at her.]

What is with you anyway?! Smiling in fucking danger and shit, that's not normal!!

Hey, that's a lot coming from you.

[Ruby huffs like she's upset with that kind of commentary!]

I'm used to danger. Just not...vomit.

[Cries.]

It's still weird as hell. Puke isn't gonna fucking kill ya!

[He scratches his head. God, smiling in the face of danger? No, no. This is too much, he doesn't want to think about it anymore!]

Tch, whatever. Do you know the way outta this place?

It's not going to kill me but it's still really REALLY gross.

[Ruby makes a disgusting face like she's going to puke too. ]

Nope, I don't know the way out. I thought you would know.

[She pokes Zack's side repeatedly. Hey, Hey. ]

ME?!

[He swats her hand away. Bruh, RUBES. Don't touch him there!]

Does it look like I'm the kind of guy who knows anything?!

[Wow. WOW. Ruby frowns at that.]

Yes, it looks like you might know something interesting!! I'm being honest.

What?

[How DISAPPOINTING. ]

[Zack stares back real hard at her. Honestly? He expected to hear something negative. Even Ray knew he was a dummy!]

Really? And what makes you think that, eh??

You're covering your face and that means you're hiding something!

[She pokes him again.]

It's like one of those guys who know too much and they're just trying to be discreet.

[!!

There's a nerve that's definitely hit. He smacks her hand away again, more harsh this time.]

I'm not, but I sure as hell ain't gonna tell ya, so quit that shit!!

[He scratches his head furiously. Gosh seriously- he really, really wants to go home, he doesn't have time to stand all day with someone who just won't quit!!]

Look, Lil Miss Fucking Sunshine- unless you can help me in some way in getting outta here, then leave me alone!

HEY, my name's not Little Miss Fun Sunshine! It's Ruby.

[She makes a dramatic hand motion at him and points with all her might.]

I'm just as lost as you are! Or anyone else for that matter. Keep me around more. I'm sure you'll learn something.

Like what, how to be annoying? No thanks!

[Forgetting how she isn't affected by danger at the moment, he whips out his scythe once more.]

If you really want me to, then don't fucking screw around. Don't act so holly jolly either, else I might be tempted to cut you down. I can't help murdering people that get so happy and excited, ya see.

Understand??

YOU HAVE A SCYTHE!! Me too!!

[ No she does not understand! Instead Ruby gets all sparkly eyed like she just saw a new toy. Then she pulls out her own scythe to show Zack. UHM. This isn't how it should be going, but she's all excited. Sorry Zack.]

Huh, yours looks kinda different from mine. What's it made out of?

[Aaaand he comes right back to confusion. OF ALL THE THINGS TO NOTICE...WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO HIM, W H Y. HE DOESN'T DESERVE THIS ~~except he totally does because it serves him right~~]

...metal??

[As far as he's concerned, anything that's metallic and sharm enough to slice through a person are all the same to him.

ANYWAY, his eye twitches for a sec out of annoyance; Zack opens his mouth as he's about to yell, but the sight of Ruby's scythe stops him. Dude, bruh, he's never seen anything like that??]

And you? What's with yours? It looks...

[Cool? Strange?? Man, he doesn't even know what to say right now.]

It looks...awesome, right? Tell me it's cool! I made it myself.

[Ruby holds the scythe like it's her child. She's really into weapons. Just don't mind her too much.]

Yours is made out of metal...and so is mine! Yeah! Scythes!

[She's taking a better look at Zack's weapon never minding the fact he tried to Threaten Her.]

Woah, seriously?

[And now he's distracted too, leaning a bit to check hers. WHOOPS.]

No bullshitting? You really did this??
