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! ♥

[Elizabeth laughs. she admits some of them are terribly cheesy but she likes them.]

I guess you two don't share the same sense of humor?

[omittance]

Somethin' like that, yeah.

[ He shakes his head, smiling almost fondly. Almost. ]

[unchain]

[damnit Joel you're reminding her more & more of Booker. lack of words, never smiling, gruff look. it really makes her want to laugh.]

She's safe. [she speaks softly now. Elizabeth can sense his worry because she's used to Booker practically radiating it whenever he thinks she's in trouble.] She's been making friends & having some fun. I know saying 'don't worry' won't satisfy you until you see her, but - believe me, Ellie is just fine.

[a beat.] Or don't. You probably don't. [she laughs a little & shakes her head.] You're just like him.

[omittance]

[ He looks over, wondering about the comparison - obviously someone she's close to otherwise she wouldn't bother mentioning it. Maybe her own dad? ]

I'll believe it when I see it, don't you worry. Until then I'm keepin' my mind open.

[pretty much nailed that one right on the head there, cowboy.]

Fair enough. [Elizabeth starts to swing her arms while they walk.] What kind of world are you from? [never ending questions with this one.]

[omittance]

[ who you callin cowboy princess ]

World? [ He gives her a blank look. ] Don't go telling me we're in different worlds now. That ain't funny.

[unchain]

[you mister tall, scruffy & texan.]

Well... [god this is like explaining tears to Booker all over again goddamn you Joel.] For the most part, yeah. Everyone here's from a different world. I know it - it's hard to grasp, it's like some strange, magical imaginary idea. But here, it's truth.

[omittance]

[ 8( shh liz shh. ]

You tellin' me we're all pulled here from different worlds and we just - what, sit back and accept it?

[unchain]

If you find a way out, then by all means.

[a hand goes to her severed pinkie, gaze to the ground.]

To some of us, this is a much better alternative. I don't expect you to accept it, I'm pretty sure he didn't either. [actually she's pretty sure he would've said the exact say thing too. either using less words or just pointing his gun at someone.] Not everyone does at first, I assume.
