assguardians | ASGARD GENESIS

the test drive meme.

❧ let's do this.

Anyone can post to the test drive meme, including duplicates! Please put your character name and canon in the title of your comment.
All threads are considered open to everyone! Tag around and make some friends (or enemies)!
If you decide to apply to the game, you can use your TDM threads for your app samples! You only need to provide seven comments if you use TDM samples.
You can't be "late" to a TDM! This will be considered open until the next one goes live next month.
You can make up your own scenario, interact with one of the locations in the game, use the welcome process of your character selecting a god house, or use our optional prompt below!
You do not need to pick a god house to play on the TDM! You can have your character still in the process of discussing/deciding/despairing instead.
If you are accepted to the game, you can keep TDM threads as game canon as long as you fudge some of the details depending on your original thread. If you aren't sure exactly how to do this, you can always ask a mod.
Reserves open on May 25 at 12:01AM PST and close on May 31 at 11:59PM PST.
Applications open on June 1 at 12:01AM PST and close on June 7 at 11:59PM PST.
Please always feel free to contact the mods if you have any questions! Have fun, dear (future?) Wanderers. ♥

❧ optional scenario.
As you enter Asgard proper, many of the natives have gathered into curious crowds to greet these mysterious children of the World Tree. Some of them carry baskets of flowers and nervously offer one to any Wanderers that come near. They are vibrant and colorful, picked from the wilds surrounding Asgard, and they might have an odd effect on your character if they sniff the flowers directly.

Purple flowers will make your character very giggly and easily amused by everything they see and hear.
Orange flowers will make your character feel very warm all over, like the sun is beating down on them directly.
Blue flowers will make your character somewhat short and impatient with anything that seems like even a minor inconvenience to them.

Effects of the flowers can wear off anywhere between a few minutes to an hour. And for those new to Asgard, this scenario aligns with some of the general curses we might have in the game!

[ ... Are.... are you talking to him????

At first surprised, he scans his left and his right like maybe Emil was talking to someone else but uh nope they're like the only two in this particular bubble. God what does he even say: religion has always been the furthest thing from his mind with all the horseshit in his life.

He stammers, words not making sense at first until he gathers his wits. Sorry, man, he's just really bad with people. ]

If you really don't want to do it, then just don't. You don't owe them anything.

( Yes, you have suddenly been held hostage by this conversation. Sorry that he just starts rambling, regardless of whether anyone actually cares to listen.

He, however, isn't sorry. It's not that he doesn't agree with him, it's just very futile and thus he must complain. )

If anything they owe us something. But they make it seem like we can't opt out. I don't want to agree to this, but we've had to align ourselves with one of them.

( Some might be grateful to at least be located somewhere safe and with the chance of food and shelter, but he basically was somewhere safe and at least in somewhat proximity to his actual home. ) Who knows what else they'll try to make us do down the road. I'm not going along with it, whatever it is!

Then don't.

[ He pauses, a frown on his lips. He agrees with Emil, but wonders if he's not about to do the opposite and sign on anyway. ]

I didn't get the impression that they were just abandoning us and we'll at least have somewhere to stay. But I think you're right. It's not exactly a good idea to just go along with whatever they say, whoever they say they are.

( He's very fired up, but unfortunately his I'd Like To Speak To The Manager energy isn't one that has a lot of gas. )

I don't plan on it! They can give us food and shelter, and that's at least something...but I won't be bought so easily.

( Debatable. If Tyr actually had private housing and three course meals, he just might have been...and yet. )

Do you think these people are actually Gods? It's true they've brought us here, but I'm still dubious.
