TEST DRIVE MEME: Good weather?


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.

[For Kenji's part, he was more than happy to allow Tadashi to interject himself between him and James. He was still somewhat shaken by what he had wanted to do--what he'd almost done. Letting out a deep breath, he stepped back further, throwing up his hands in an 'I'm done' gesture, before looking around for his surfboard. Hopefully, it hadn't been broken during the scuffle. If it had been, he really might kill the guy.

Fortunately, it was still in one piece, so James would live another day. As the unfortunate James and his friends staggered off, apparently following Tadashi's advice, he picked it up, once more tucking it under his arm. He stood there awkwardly for a moment, not quite sure what to say. He sure as hell didn't want to explain what had just happened.]


Uh...I should probably be getting home, too...

[Tadashi turns his head to watch James and co stagger off, and keeps half an eye on them even as he turns back to Kenji with a sheepish grin.]

Ahhah. Yeah, I owe you one anyway. I shouldna figured they'd be a bit stupid about it.

Thanks for keeping your cool, man. That was some pro-level moves there.

Keeping his cool...that was a good one. Tadashi didn't know just how close he'd come to losing his cool and beating his friend to a pulp.

Ehh... I was just lucky the guy was drunk. If he'd been sober, you'd probably be blotting me up with a napkin, or something.

[Tadashi's hand drops on Kenji's shoulder for a friendly grip for a moment. He lifts it into a wave as he goes to follow the group.]

Heh, humble aint a good look for you. Might have to practice on that one.

Anyways, see ya around, Kobayashi.

[Kenji grins half-heartedly, returning the wave before turning to head in the opposite direction.]

Yeah... see ya round, man.
