DECEMBER TEST DRIVE

[nukeoleptic]

THE TEST DRIVE MEME

• Got a character you're thinking of reserving/apping this round? PUT THEM HERE! • Threads here can count as your third person sample! • Comment with your character's name and canon! • This is open to everyone! Also, test drivers can tag other test drivers. :) • Make up your own scenario or have them walk into all the doors or leave it blank for others to do it for you! Reserves are here, and open on November 24th at 12:01AM CST. Application information (including the list of pending apps) is here, and they open on December 1st at 12:01AM CST. OPTIONAL SCENARIO: After your character receives his or her bracelet and the run-down from the faceless maids in the castle, they walk out to find the city blanketed with snow and in the middle of what seems to be a snowball war organized by the Native children! Be careful on your way to your Welcome House: snowballs are flying, and these groups of giggling kids don't seem to care who gets caught in the crossfire. Make sure to have fun, and as always, feel free to hit the mods or players up with any questions you might have! ♥

( No, no it is not.

Proof #1: the other grumpy looking teenager {HAH} shaking snow out of his hair. Puss is probably standing in her way, but look, it's not easy to take care of ankle-length hair okay? He needs a minute here, or maybe two.

Say, how's her patience doing today? )

[hisstrength]

[She sees his hair before she sees him. I mean, let's face it, that's a lot of hair. Looking up, she notes he probably doesn't plan on moving anytime within the next few seconds.

Whatever, she'll just step around him - hang on is that shouting picking up behind her? Tris dives to the side so as not to be hit by snowballs. It's really not her fault if they hit him instead. Right?]

[madeforwalking]

( Yes, yes it is ! !

That is to say, let us redefine sound and coherent thinking for a moment because the noise Puss makes at this? Is very clearly not human. Screw the whole power-changing aspect here.

You ever heard a cat yowling in outrage? That's the noise, you'll recognise it. There's also probably a kickflailjump involved here somewhere.

Better take another step back bb, this party is getting loud )

[hisstrength]

[She's never had a cat. Or known anyone who's had a cat.

As such those sounds and the flailing are KINDA DISCONCERTING, she definitely takes another step away.]

It wasn't that bad, was it?

[Because that's kind of a spectacular reaction you've got going.]

[madeforwalking]

( would murder be a spectacular reaction too? Don't think he wouldn't be capable of that, this is a teenager-bro {??} who is perfectly okay with poisoning kids, you see.

...good thing that there is no poison lying around here. Also, all that screeching takes up a lot of energy anyway. )

Not that-- what, what?! Have you lost all your damn marbles! That's cold as well as disgusting!

( sooo many exclamation marks and just think, there might have been more if he'd paid attention to you before, if Puss had seen you stepping out of the way. Lucky day all around

except for him, but that's how it goes )

[hisstrength]

[...that would be a pretty spectacular reaction, but she'd also be very much not okay with it. She's also not really okay with being yelled at for something she didn't even do.]

It's just snow.

[Get over it. Sheesh.]

[madeforwalking]

( oh hey, something he's willing to turn and face her for. success!? )

And you're just a block-headed idiot.

( this would probably look more imposing if he'd stop rolling his shoulders, but. there is snow in his jacket, you understand that sacrifices have to be made )

That doesn't stop you from being annoying either, does it.

[hisstrength]

[So that's how this is going to go. She narrows her eyes at him.]

No, I suppose not.

[And she crouches down and starts forming her own handfuls of snow into something throwable. This may be a threat.]

[madeforwalking]

( this just makes her look like a squinty bug in need of glasses. Puss knows glasses-wearing bugs okay, it's not a compliment )

You probably expect me to be grateful that you aren't kicking up a fuss about this, but-- hey, hey-! What are you doing there?

( a sane person would follow the example here but Puss. Well, Puss just leans back because this will, naturally, totally save his hide )

[hisstrength]

What's it look like?

[Her tone is the sweetest. She even smiles at him. But no, really, what's it look like?]

[madeforwalking]

Nothing. ( maybe that will make nothing come true, too?? there is no wood to knock on after all )

You wouldn't do that kind of shit, right? You have no idea what might happen.

[hisstrength]

Maybe if I hit you you'll jump a foot in the air again. Or you could start running.

[Sloooowly rising, snowball in hand. ...what kind of place is this that she can say this and it's a serious threat to someone...?]
