Test Drive for December 2013 Apps




Welcome to your monthly Test Drive for [community profile] 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!

♦ NAVY SHIPS! Cannon fire! Guns and explosions! It's a Pirates vs. Navy battle! **HINT: This might be a good one to try this time around... :D
rebonding: (I can be serious)

book 2 finale spoilers

A little over two months, now. [Korra shifts her weight to one hip.]

Something weird happened... Like, I went home, forgot about ever being here, then wound up back here again after Harmonic Convergence.

[Again. Weird spirit stuff she can't even begin to understand.]

I've got a crew, though. [She should probably should explain that part, too... erg.]
rebonding: (hey wait no)

[personal profile] rebonding 2013-11-26 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Fine, she'll admit to that. Maybe.]

Yeah. It's like... drinking liquid fireflakes. Except it tastes gross.

[As she speaks, a bit of food somehow gets launched her way and lands on her forehead. Korra pouts, shooting a glare down the table before flicking it back in the general direction from which it came. Even she has good table manners compared to these guys!]

The food in general isn't that great, but we eat pretty well compared to some other crews, apparently.
raavashing: (huh: 'til our last days)

[A]
"Um, hello? Excuse me, ma'am? Sir? Sir!" Wan circled the square attempting to get the attention of any of the people there. All of whom were, so far, intent on ignoring him completely. He was perfectly accepting of having traveled to a new and different world - he'd been to the spirit world and sealed so why couldn't there be others? - but what he worried about was something more personal.

"If you'll just give me a mo- Please, I need to find my catdeer. Anyone?"

[B]
He stared out at the other ship approaching, eyebrows knit as he tried to make out what he was seeing, "So hey... what flag, uh... 'colors' does this Navy thing 'fly' again?"

wantsarobotgarden: (♙ Where did the knives go?)

[personal profile] wantsarobotgarden 2013-11-26 08:52 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods, best to move no rather than stay and let them come to them. Making sure he kept close to her, he kept an eye out.]

I wouldn't want that, so I won't let them arrest us. [All that would pass through his mind at that thought was simply what had happened in the past and that was something he didn't want to happen anytime soon.] You'll be safe with me, I hope at least.

[Don't mind if he gets a little lost.]
uccellodifuoco: Can't take this anymore." This heart breaks (003 - I feel like "Fuck man)

[personal profile] uccellodifuoco 2013-11-26 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Her action actually gives him an idea.]

Hn, maybe we should cut this short and just get rid of their ship, it doesn't look good enough to claim it for ourselves once we're done.

[Being in this place has influenced him too much, then again it would be naive to think they could just defeat the enemy and they would sail away peacefully.]

[personal profile] ex_automobiles598 2013-11-26 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[If it's even possible, her eyebrow raises even higher]

I...two months? [She shakes her head a bit, having never ventured into the spirit world herself this all still comes as a bit of a shock to her] But I just saw you before I got here.

[Well judging from all the people around here, and all the ships and docks...] Oh. You mean like a pirate crew?
im_tiring: (Reconsider)

[personal profile] im_tiring 2013-11-26 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, well that's something to see. Do people actually wear the hats? [She starts looking around, checking if she can spot any peacock feathers in the crowd.]
booyaka_boom: (Default)

[personal profile] booyaka_boom 2013-11-26 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
*Whoops! Yeah, she can be like that sometimes*

Well, it's probably because they thought you were a big scary pirate!
im_tiring: (Concern)

[personal profile] im_tiring 2013-11-26 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Merrill shakes the offered hand, but awkwardly. It's not something she's used to doing much.] Maybe it's a nexus of magical energy. Is the moon always the same when the new people show up? Or does the air smell like anything? Blood or fire, or biscuits?

[personal profile] imashaaaaark 2013-11-26 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Chimera? What the hell is a chimera?

[personal profile] imashaaaaark 2013-11-26 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
You know, gun for hire. Enforcer. Professional face-buster.
avartwice: (tch fine)

[personal profile] avartwice 2013-11-26 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, don't think you know me as well as you think you do.

[And into the shop they go. Once they're in, Greed pulls himself free and crosses his arms.]

Right, so what's the deal with those guys? Hasn't anyone ever taught them that shooting first is a terrible policy?
avartwice: (that's that)

[personal profile] avartwice 2013-11-26 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Greed looks more annoyed than anything else by this.]

Sowing. Right. Can't say that's a skill I've ever bothered to pick up.

[personal profile] imashaaaaark 2013-11-26 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
You afraid of heights at all?
hands4healing: (Whut you say?)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2013-11-27 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Winry talks quietly, since they're in a shop, and she'd rather not draw attention. She's still moving, though, heading out the back door.]

They're the Navy, they think anyone not dressed like a local is a pirate, and they're [She sighs] really mad that someone...a pirate...burned down two of the islands. They're still rebuilding Isla Empieza.

[She beckons imperiously at Ling.]

Come on, we need to keep moving.
hands4healing: (I have questions)

(A)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2013-11-27 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Winry stops and glances at him, then puts a finger to her lips. She beckons with her head, walking away from the fountain.]
hands4healing: (Curioser and curioser)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2013-11-27 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Um.

[He'd have to know if he is one, wouldn't he?]

A person and an animal, combined?
hands4healing: (That's so not right.)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2013-11-27 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
I...I don't know. I don't remember any weird smells when I got here, and I don't think the moon's been the same.

[Now Winry's curious, though.]

[personal profile] imashaaaaark 2013-11-27 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
My old man is a Shark God and my mother is a human. Does that count?
hands4healing: (I have questions)

[personal profile] hands4healing 2013-11-27 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe...

[Because Winry really doesn't know anything about exactly how chimeras came about, except for alchemy having something to do with it.]

But you're probably not from my world, and your rules are probably different.

[personal profile] imashaaaaark 2013-11-27 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
Heck if I know, I just eat stuff.
eskalated: ([02] A devil's daughter was in disguise)

[personal profile] eskalated 2013-11-27 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Eska gives the other ship a sidelong look.]

Agreed.

[Then she looks back to him.]

What is the status of your own abilities?
eskalated: ([02] A devil's daughter was in disguise)

[personal profile] eskalated 2013-11-27 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
I pity the other crew then.

[The food isn't up to her standards, no, but even that she could forgive if-- a 'splat' has her looking briefly to her sleeve. Ah, it managed to barely miss her. That's better than yesterday.]

Perhaps they drink then to dull their taste palates to little more than dust.
eskalated: ([09] She was sly in her temptation)

[personal profile] eskalated 2013-11-27 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Praise for her abilities isn't entirely new. It is when it's not brought on by her status or her father's half-praises.

She pauses, briefly conflicted, then makes what waves she can to start the boat gently forward again.]
gokai_red: (Marv - Okay. Listen to this shit.)

[personal profile] gokai_red 2013-11-27 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Dammit, he will never hear the end of that in this place.]

Well yeah, guess I know how that is.

So, you got anywhere you're trying to hitch a ride to? I guess you wouldn't be the first guy who dropped onto this ship without an invitation.
