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.

...I'm listening.
hollowleg: :v (☼ can you tell me)

[he coughs, looking down at his jerky, which only does so much to stave off that hunger]

... It was something else. Something weird. I... kind of [he runs the next part of the sentence together] puked-up-my-entire-stomach-and-it-grew-back. ... Since then, I really haven't been able to sate my hunger. It's really irritating.
whoyougonnacall: (I ain't afraid of no ghost)

[personal profile] whoyougonnacall 2013-05-29 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
....jesus.

...

...you're not some kind of zombie now, are you?
hollowleg: laughing (☼ now I wonder what my life)

[personal profile] hollowleg 2013-05-29 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[he laughs, though it is clearly forced] No, no. I don't think so, at least. I mean, I'm not rotting or anything. But hey, if I start craving brains, you'll be fine. [a sly grin.

He opts NOT to mention that his craving for meat has been off the charts

[personal profile] whoyougonnacall 2013-05-29 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[A playful shove.]

Shove it, asshole, I'm serious. Are you ok?
hollowleg: sad (☼ who're waving goodbye)

[personal profile] hollowleg 2013-05-29 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[another chuckle, less forced. Then he frowns and looks away, kicking at a crumpled beer can in the alley. He could try and lie. But Mamoru was always really good at calling Shiro's bluffs]

I... don't really know.
whoyougonnacall: (in your neighborhood)

[personal profile] whoyougonnacall 2013-05-30 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[Just. This face. Mamoru knows what it's like to have weird stuff happen to you that you don't understand.]

Anything I can do? You want a place to crash at, someone to talk to, anything?
hollowleg: (something ugly this way comes)

[personal profile] hollowleg 2013-05-30 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[he shakes his head ad runs a hand through his hair]

Nah... no. You know how well us staying together works. It doesn't. [he shuffles his boots again] But keep your phone handy. I don't know how much I'm supposed to say outside of the secret number club.
whoyougonnacall: (who can you call?)

[personal profile] whoyougonnacall 2013-05-31 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
...actually, about that number thing...

Do you mean like a string of numbers in your head, that you can't get rid of?
