Test Drive for January 2014 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!

Re: Sir Crocodile | One Piece

[Elissa was crossing the square after making some purchases up the way at Backwater Brig. Though her thoughts were elsewhere, it was easy for the sight of an extremely tall man to pull her from them. And then? She recognized him.]

You. [One word, yet it said so much. Denial. Anger. Frustration. Old scores? Pausing, Elissa calmly put down her package and then straightened to look up at Crocodile.]

[grandlineswag]

...Ah. I recall you. I was on board the same ship as you, correct? How is the old Captain doing? I trust he looks as much a filthy bilge-rat as ever.

[elissacousland]

He has disappeared much the same as you did, ser. [She tilted her head as she looked up at him and then crooked a finger at the man in an effort to get him to lean downward. Ser Crocodile was far too tall for discreet conversation.]

[grandlineswag]

[He raised an eyebrow at this gesture, wondering if he should comply. Did she have some sort of useful information she couldn't say in public?]

What? What do you want?

[elissacousland]

[Elissa gave him a look.] You are as tall as an ogre. That tends to make communication difficult unless we wish for the entire town square to hear what is being said.

[grandlineswag]

Unless this is sensitive information, does it matter who knows? It depends on what you wish to tell me.

[elissacousland]

[And the look devolves into exasperation.]

I was going to tell you that I might have actually missed you when you disappeared, you overgrown bastard, but now I have a clearer memory of just how maddening you can be.

[She sent a playful, backhanded swat toward his midsection.]
