Test Drive for October 2013 Apps

[highseasmods]

Welcome to your monthly Test Drive for high_seas! Here is where new players can test out their characters' voices, old players can try out new muses, and everyone can help each other get some threads for their applications! Feel free to use one of the prompts below, or come up with something on your own! Comment around, have fun, and remember that any CR formed here does not carry over to the game!

See you during the application round!

♦ So you're new to this world and have just woken up in the Town Square. How do you react? What do you do?

♦ You're lost at sea. Maybe you got separated from your crew. Or perhaps you're on an abandoned island. You need help!

♦ "Pirates off the starboard bow!" It's an enemy ship! Attack!!

♦ You and your crew are hanging out on your ship. Just another day at sea!

♦ "LAND, HO!" Hey look, a new island! How about you go explore it? Tell us what you find!

You don't say.

[While Ragna wholeheartedly agreed with the expressed sentiment, he also didn't bother to hide his sarcasm when he responded. Sure, he didn't like the idea of being stuck on that pile of rotting timber, drifting across a big damn ocean to hell knew where and only hoping whatever island they would end up on would have a way to send him home, but at least he was trying to make himself useful to speed up the process instead of just standing there.

... Keyword being "trying", because having no experience with that kind of labor made him a sailor of doubtful quality, the proof to which was the fact he was currently entangled in some ropes that certainly did not belong on the Grim Reaper.]

Hey, Kokonoe! Why don't you do your fancy shit and teleport us outta here?

That "fancy shit" is all tied to my technology which, unfortunately, is still a few worlds over back in my lab. Your just going to have to wait like a good boy till we smart people find a way out of this mess.

[Turning to meet Ragna, Kokonoe couldn't help herself but to laugh at the mess the Grim Reaper had gotten himself into.]

[rebellions]

In other words, we're stuck. Great.

[He lets out a loud groan, clearly not pleased with either her answer or reaction.]

The hell's so funny? I haven't seen you do anything productive ever since got on this pile of crap. Or before that.

[by_human_hands]

What the hell do you expect me to do while we're floating in the middle of the ocean like this? I'm a scientist not a sailor, Grim Reaper.

I'll get to work as soon as we hit dry land.

[rebellions]

I'm neither!

[AND YET HE'S FORCED TO DO ALL THIS STUPID PIRATE CRAP AAAHHH okay no that won't help. Ragna lets out a sigh, slowly working on freeing himself from the ropes.]

Whatever... Just make sure you figure something out, 'kay? I don't wanna spend the rest of my life drifting from one island to another.

[He can't say he likes it, but if there's anyone who can work out a way to send them back, it's probably Kokonoe, so he has no other choice but to trust her with that... for now.]

Yeah, yeah, I hear you. It's not like your the only one who wants to go home. For example, I've got to get back home before that bastard Terumi destroys the place once and for all.

But yeah, It'll be hell trying to make a working teleporter with the complete lack of technology around here, but I'm sure I'll be able to whip something up given enough time and bit of work.
