Test Drive meme!
Because all our characters are the modern reincarnates of the characters we know and love, you need a modern mundane AU! Post your character with a couple details about who they are now. Use a prompt to set the scene, or do something of your own! And tag around.
->Stranding Shower Inclement weather has suddenly forced you to take shelter. There's someone else under this overhang or bus stop - this might take a while, so you might as well get to know them.
->Mall (mis)adventures You work at a mall. Or you want to buy something. Or maybe you just loiter around. There's a lot of reasons to be at the mall!
->Network news So you got a number. Let's see what happens if you write it down...
->Superhuman Sighting You have an interest in seeing one of the numbered - is that one there?
->Superhuman Surprise You felt hollow for a moment, and now you're numbered! Suddenly you're that much closer to canon and manifesting a mutation, a power, or a strange memory! Probably in public!
->Wild Card Combine prompts or pick something less alliterative! Monsters! Cultists! Boring days at the mall!

Nat has a weird relationship with sports. She's a little weird and doesn't make that many friends, and is best at running and climbing. But team sports can be a lot of fun. Sometimes. If she's not picked last. In any case, she's up one side of the fence and down the other quickly, then shaking out her hands where the chain link dug into them before getting the back door open.
It's gloomy in the dark hallway. Part of the better-lit front of the store, with its display windows, is visible, and an abandoned thermos on the floor, but they can't be seen from outside.]
I don't get why people leave their coffees behind. Everywhere I go, though...
[She fishes out the thing on a necklace chain again. A trace of red light shows through her closed fingers.]
no subject
And he'll forego commenting on the coffees to glue his eyes to the thing in her hands and hold out his own in a quiet gesture of wanting her to hand it to him, whatever "it" is.]
no subject
Do you feel it? It's... [It's rare Nat falters, note this!] bittersweet.
no subject
[He raises the crystal, his hand staying open, bringing it closer to his eyes to have a look. Hm. It feels...
He suddenly stumbles and almost drops it from the sudden feeling of dislocation, grasping the chain at the last moment.
Something (two somethings) hit his head just a moment later. Crystals as well, shining as well, but in a different light that looks like the sun and the moon's lights have mingled within them. They're larger, too, about the size of a chicken egg.]
no subject
[She startles when the other crystals appear, but not so badly that she doesn't snatch one before it can hit the floor. The light of it shining through her hand makes it glow red.]
Crap. You had to try and outdo me, huh?
no subject
OUCH.]
What-
[....looking down at those shiny stones. What.]
They aren't mine. [Frowning deeply. But seriously who throws with glowy stones at people. In an abandoned house. Nat, if this is some kind of elaborate prank... Leveling a gaze at her (even though this isn't actually her style, but what other explanation is there really?]
no subject
They sure aren't mine. Give me the red one back. There's something I'm supposed to make with it.
[she's not really known for making things, but she's serious here. There is a shape of something, and the red crystal is the heart.]
But hey, if you don't want the big ones, I'll take them. You know these things are all probably pulses, right?
