LET'S [test] DRIVING



IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN, YOU KNOW THE DRILL. Here's a few options, all stolen shamelessly from previous iterations.

> The Park. Man, what a nice day out. Why not enjoy it? I'm sure -- shit, yep, there's some echo monsters or whatever they're called.
> 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!
> Arts and Crafts Fair. WILL THE KITSCH OVERWHELM YOU


or make up your own whatever this is basic and just for the purposes of getting a new test drive up.

Sango/Sonja Spencer | InuYasha | Museum!

[personal profile] taijiya 2013-08-22 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Sonja is, for the most part, a typical teenage girl. Average height, long dark hair, big brown eyes, wearing a pale pink tee shirt with a messenger bag slung over one shoulder. Tailed by a young boy who bears a striking resemblance, she's well-known to anyone who frequents the Locke City Museum of History as the teenage girl who mans the reception desk on weeknights and -ends, or at least when she's not at practice for one school sport or another. Sometimes she even gives tours, if traffic is slow enough.

There's not much to do right now, so she'll be clicking away at the computer as her brother digs into his homework behind her. Whatever she's doing on there, it looks likes she's pretty into it...]

[ The Museum of History, you say? Well, Aria Megido can often be found there - though not as a worker, but rather as an avid history fan and visitor. No, it's not a particularly cool thing to be a fanatic about - not when you're in high school, anyway. Aria's sixteen, like Sango, and attends Locke High. So perhaps they've seen one another around, or perhaps they're better acquainted than that. We just don't know.

She at least knows the girl well enough from her frequenting the Museum, though, and Aria will grin as she steps up to the desk. ]


Hey! Is the new exhibit in yet?

[Anyone who interrupts her relative boredom manning the front desk at the museum her uncle is in charge of is a welcome distraction, and anyone who does it frequently is probably a pretty good friend. Sonja looks up from the computer (the thing is ancient and she's actually just playing Minesweeper), and grins brightly at Aria.]

The new Aztec relics, you mean?

[Sonja spares a glance back to her algebra-absorbed little brother, then looks back at Aria to share a conspiratorial look.]

Well, not for the general public. Uncle Garth isn't finished setting it up yet. But I've got keys. [Which she pulls from under the desk and jingles.]

[personal profile] eras 2013-08-23 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ She has never loved anyone so much as she does right now. Aria's expression had gone to disappointment that the relics weren't up yet, but then... ]

Really? I've been waiting on them ever since they were announced, and if you're sure...

[ Well, Aria will not protest for more than this token one right here, because relics. ]

Then I'd love to take you and your keys up on that offer.

I keep typing "Sango," I dunno if this name change is gonna work lmfao

[personal profile] taijiya 2013-08-24 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright, cool. Uncle's out of town for the weekend so we should be okay.

[Sonja slides out from behind the counter, keys jingling, and calls back to her brother briefly.]

Keith, watch the desk, okay?

[He doesn't look up, and she shrugs.]

Come on, it's over this way.

[personal profile] eras 2013-08-30 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
As long as you won't get in trouble, I'm game!

[ And she'd never do anything to mess up an exhibit, so this isn't exactly a rebellious wild move: Aria really just likes looking at the exhibits and reading about them, which anyone who has worked at the museum for any amount of time knows. ]
taijiya: (determined smile)

downsides of AU games, lmao

[Well, by now Sonja probably knows Aria well enough to realize that trouble is not about to be caused, but still.

She leads the way into a familiar wing of the museum dealing with ancient civilizations in general, then to a large locked door with a clearly printed DO NOT ENTER sign on it. Sonja plays this little attention and sticks the key in the lock, shimmying until it cooperates.]


Alright--here.
eras: art by <user name="qanaya" site="tumblr.com"> (+ lol yeah right.)

I WAS WITHOUT INTERNET FOR A BIT, haha...

[personal profile] eras 2013-09-08 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ Aria's pretty much skipping along. ...Well, she's trying not to actually skip, but there's a distinct bounce in her step, and when they get the to wing, she's outright grinning.

This is so exciting. Once she's able to walk inside... ]


Oh my gosh, look at that!

no problem! <3

[Sonja gives a faint, proud smile.]

Cool, right? He was there nearly a month negotiating for it.

Your uncle is amazing! I wouldn't mind doing that for a living, someday. ...Of course, it'd take a lot of work to get there, but...

[Sonja huffs a little.]

Well, if you don't mind being away all the time.

There is that...although I expect he really, really enjoys coming back home.

[Sonja gives a grin.]

Yeah, well. I'm sure you'd make a great curator one day too.

I hope so! Although by then I don't think you'll be in the same business, right?
