TEST DRIVE MEME

> The Park. Man, what a nice day out. Why not enjoy it? I'm sure -- shit, yep, there's some echo monsters.
> The Mall. Exactly what it says on the tin! Dodge the hordes of teenage mallrats or take part, whichever suits your tastes.
> Rainy Day. Agh, it's fucking awful out. And is it raining those vermilion things?? Now you've got an Echo to contend with on top of everything else. Find some shelter, quick!
> PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, HOW FUN
> The most horribly kitschy Arts and Crafts Fair you can imagine.
> NEW YEARS. What better way to start out the new year than to learn that everything you know is a lie? Or if you are already acquainted with the network pass out some resolutions.
> A food fight has just broken out in the cafeteria. Join? Flee? The choice is yours alone.
> Wild Card! Make up your own.

[ Her smile widens and she nods enthusiastically! uwu fireworks are pretty, and honestly she's kind of smitten with things that make interesting sounds even if they're not music, so the big booms of bigger fireworks always captures her attention. ]

[ Sona blinks. Those are... Some surprising interests from a scrappy looking kid who goes exploring in rich neighborhoods on new years. ]

[indy_wannabe]

Eh? Something wrong?

[maven]

[ She just shakes her head, slowly. ]

Interesting.

Haha, thanks. That's not what people usually say.
