TEST DRIVE MEME: Good weather?

[theearth]

IT'S SPRING
I almost literally can't believe it isn't snowing right now just to piss me off.

How it Works
Due to the nature of Save the Earth, it's a more complicated process to play in than most other games. With this in mind, it can't hurt to experiment a little.

Post your character and in the comment share a few details regarding their reincarnation. Repeat if you have multiple ideas you want to try out, as many as you like. It's also suggested that you set a scene and there's a few prompts below to help there, but think outside the box if you like. Then tag around to other threads and help your fellow prospective players to test out their characters and the variations on them. Don't be afraid to presume a little CR to make a scene flow more freely, or to assume an Echo or two. If you have an app, complete or in progress, you might want to link it.

Current players may also use these meme to test out specific future Echoes, or as a general meme. Certain scenarios may even be transferred to game canon if both parties agree and it does not conflict with in game events.

Prompt 1: Location

The Park
The sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip whatever go to the park.
Ice Cream Parlour
Don't lie, this is the first place you want to go the moment the sun even half appears.
The Pool
That, or here.
At Home
Because naturally when it's a nice day you want to cower inside.
Barbecue Party
Abandoning all paranoia, everyone has turned up at a barbecue. It's the wildest party imaginable.
Beach
Apparently Locke City has one. I bet it's nice.
Country Hike
All that nature out there can be visited too.
The Street
Oh man, this is the worst location prompt ever. I apologise.

Prompt 2: Event
Suddenly, Rain
And here's you in just a white shirt and short shorts.
A Public Echo
One of those places up there triggers an inexplicable Echo. Are you going to have to grab a hat to hide those new horns? Maybe it's even your first.
A Date
I hear nice weather gets people in the mood for romance. I'm against it, personally.
Here on Business
Mysterious goings on have been detected in the area and it's your job to check them out. Some suggested shenanigans could include plants that try to eat people, a red herring new statue or maybe this thing popping out from behind a bush to play a saxophone in an irritating manner. Go nuts.
Getting Used to a New Echo
Maybe this one is a pain in the butt, either if because it's noticeable or hard to control. Or maybe you just like to practice.
Everything is Normal
Things aren't bizarre 24/7, you know.
Alien Invasion
The Martians* are attacking! They want our brains/world/women/hot dogs. Take these freaks out... or cower in terror.

*Martians are not actual Save the Earth villains.

((OOC: It's fine!))

[Jack straightened immediately, fingers clutching desperately to the knife in case she had to defend herself.

But no, it was only a cat. Jak sighed and stared at the cat a moment, before crouching down and holding out her hand]

Won't hurt. C'mere kitty... [She sets the knife down in case it frightens the cat more. The idea of diseases doesn't even cross her mind.]

[visionarykitten]

[Yeah, he knows those words. A lot of the time they come with someone who does want to hurt him. The cat eyes her, ears half-back and eyes wide, and makes another attempt at actually talking.

It comes out half in "cat" and half understandable.]

Aurrouioh do I know h'rauiiaoua trust h'rrii?

[The Speech, the way a wizard in his world speaks to other species, is still coming in fits and starts to him... makes communication tricky, sometimes.]

[wombed]

[Jack blinks, surprised and moves closer, forgetting the knife entirely]

You talk...? How can you talk? Are you magic? [She vaguely recalls talking animals in the picture books she'd been able to read in the library once.,/small>]

[visionarykitten]

[Well, leaving the knife behind is a plus, he supposes. At the approach, though, he sidles a couple steps back of his own.]

Rrrr. Dunno.

[That one came out muddled, but he thinks it gets the point across. He isn't really sure what magic is, after all, so how can he know if he is it? He does know he's different though.]

[wombed]

[She pauses and rests her arms on top of her knees, peering at him curiously]

Don't know? Don't know.... [She trails off, disappointed]

Don't you have a home?

[visionarykitten]

Sure.

[He flirts his tail aside, in the direction of the trash cans she just knocked over. Alley cat, and all. That's all he "says" about his own home, at least that's understandable.]

Haai'arraoudh. Do you?

[wombed]

Oh... [She realizes that knocking the trash cans over disturbed him and she looks flustered and embarrassed] Sorry, sorry. Didn't mean to...

[At the question Jack nodded] Yes! [Then she hesitates] ...No? Don't know. Not for a bit.

[visionarykitten]

[ ... all right, she's winning him over. For an ehhif, she's pretty cute, and apologizing for knocking over the trash cans is very polite. Alley cat or not, he does value politeness.

So he steps a little closer, sniffing at her curiously, asking,]

Why not?

[That comes out entirely understandable. Probably because he kept it short.]

sorry for the delay! uwu/

[wombed]

Mommy locked the door. [Jack shrugs and hugs her knees, watching him curiously]

Can't go back until she unlocks it again. So I'm here. I was just looking for food, but it's hard.

no worries! I delayed plenty on my own tag XD

[visionarykitten]

Locked it?

[Arhu sniffs, somewhere between derisive and confused. The Speech translates "mother" for him, but it doesn't make sense that a mother would do that sort of thing.]

Your dam locked it? Why?
