ASGARD GENESIS - TEST DRIVE #1

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!

Yeah, just a few. It wasn't world ending, like in the movies. Or like what you're saying.

[Might as well believe her for the time being.]

Eeeh? That kind of sucks...even if that sounds insensitive. I'd have a lot of problems without a little TV time.
darraig: (Jaws of fate)

Well, that's something then at least....

[Clementine gives a shrug. She might have missed it initially? But honestly, given her priority on surviving and looking after AJ she hasn't really even thought about TV in years. She's not even sure if they have television here for that matter.]

I wonder if they have it here. Television, I mean.
this_chair: (Good thought)

[personal profile] this_chair 2019-05-20 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
If they have TVs here, it'd honestly be pretty great. I've got a lot of movies and shows to catch up on. The last couple years haven't been conducive to watching anything.

[If only because his sister refused to let him indulge in that kind of thing. But it couldn't be helped.]
darraig: (Weakened)

[personal profile] darraig 2019-05-20 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
You say that when I've got about seven or eight years worth to catch up on. I'm not sure if I noticed power lines though?

[Not that she had been looking for them, given how they take such things for granted back home. But still. It is only in talking about television that she isn't sure she noticed power lines around the place or not in her explorations.]

this_chair: (How Do I Put This?)

That's uh...a lot of time. If you need any recommendations then, let me know. I'm pretty up on my American TV shows.

[He's just going to pretend that her last sentence didn't exist. Just for optimism's sake.]
darraig: (For now)

[personal profile] darraig 2019-05-21 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh. I'll keep you in mind if I need suggestions on what to prioritize catching up with first.

[If there is television, that is. Still, she glances around again, unable to keep the brief amused smile at her lips from appearing for a moment.]
