Test Drive for January 2014 Apps
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!
It's fine~!
Oh why did he have to have quite so many enemies to worry about? Beagle Boys, Glomgold.....just to name a few and they were all formidable in one way or another. Gizmoduck better not be slacking on the job either....]Aye, that it could. [He couldn't help laughing about that.]
[... And you said you were too mature to get into any trouble. Running away from home would fall into that category, but that secret was safe with her for now.]
Good. You canna be too sure with some people. Though I know a good deal of people that are older than you and not half as mature, so it is possible to be a handful long after ones youth.
[Elsa's expression says a lot even without her words to correspond with it. She wasn't the only one that had trouble with other relatives mind you. Scrooge hadn't always appreciated his family as much as he should.. something he regretted later in life. The stairway to the top of the business world had left some of his family... a bit.. estranged. The way she spoke of her sister, he never would have guessed that there was any sort of problem between them. He listened attentively to what she had to say. It was comforting to know that he wasn't the only one missing someone, and it was sweet to hear just how much she cared about her younger sister.]
A summer hurricane, hmm? Well even I might have trouble keeping up with a lass like that. [Honestly, Anna reminded her not only of his nephews but himself when he was a lad] You must care for her a great deal. Did she ever grow out of being so accident prone? If not, then it might be a good thing that she's not here. There are too many opportunities to fall over board here.. but if she ever does turn up she would be welcome aboard.
[Accident prone. That reminded him of his pilot... Launchpad Mcquack. You can bet that Launchpad could have crashed a bicycle inside of a house. He could crash anything.....]
no subject
[Which is something he probably can understand as well. One can be a b it reckless and youthful while treasure hunting, but that attitude won't always be beneficial when striking business deals. Right now, he could very well jump out of the ship at any moment to chase after a treasure, no explanations or excuses given, no need to make arrangements for his absence. But back home? As rich as he could be, it wouldn't be wise to do the same with such abandon. A man that doesn't present to a meeting because he's chasing after a legendary treasure wouldn't cause a good impression, even if said treasure may serve to cover for the loses caused by such a ruined occasion.
Elsa laughs softly at his questions regarding her sister.]
Of course I care for her a lot, she's my little sister. She's the most precious thing I have and the only thing I really want to protect.
[She would do anything for Anna. Really. Even condemning herself to a life of solitude by tearing herself apart from her. It hurt Anna, she knows it, how could she not? All those years that Anna spent knocking at her door, day after day, begging her to come out and be with her. Oh, how had she wanted to open wide that door and hug her, go and make a thousand of snowmen with her. But she couldn't. She had hurt Anna once, she couldn't do that again, couldn't take the risk until she was able to control her powers. But she never was able to and, in the end, she slipped and caused a bigger mess than she would have ever wanted. She can just hope that being the sister of a monster won't trouble Anna too much, and that she now knows why Elsa shut her out, even if she never comes to forgive her.]
I don't think she ever grew out of that, though she's not as accident prone as it may have sounded, really. She's just reckless, and I guess she can get distracted easily. She... Does have a lot of fantasies in her head, a lot of dreams, which would be good if she didn't mistake them with reality so much.
["True love". A stranger she just met and with whom she fell in true love right away. It's true that Elsa knows nothing about love either, but she knows about the real world, and such a thing belongs to fairy tales, not to reality. She just hopes that Hans is just as dream-crazy as Anna was, and that it was because of that why he had asked for her hand, rather than for any hidden motives.
When Mcduck says that Anna would be welcome abroad it makes Elsa smile, even though it also causes her some inner turmoil. Because if Anna appeared in this world, she doesn't know what she would say to her. Or do. And she doubts to begin with that Anna would want to be in the same ship as her after everything. Years of living under Elsa's shadow, suffering a cruel punishment that was meant for Elsa and not her. No, Anna would prefer to be free, away from Elsa.]
Thank you, Mister Mcduck, though I really hope she won't be brought here. As you said, there are many opportunities for her to end hurt, the sea is a dangerous place as well. She's better back home, where she's safe. At least I hope so.

[Scrooge agreed easily with her.]
There is a time and a place for everything, so the saying goes. Having an understanding of that makes a person more adaptable to the various situations that might arise through the course of day to day life.
[True enough. Sometimes business took precedence over his hobbies. That was to be expected. He didn't get to be the richest duck in the world by blowing off meetings and gallivanting off to the various parts of the globe at the drop of a hat. Finding that balance, was tricky at times but very rewarding.]
She's lucky to have such a caring sister.
[Though what she said did make him wonder about their family situation. Was Elsa just emphasizing the point that her sister was so dear to her, or did they really have no one else outside of each other to turn to?]
[A chuckle] Maybe "accident-prone" wasn't the most apt way to put it. From the sound of it I'd wager she possesses boundless curiosity to go along with everything else. I'm sure those dreams of hers have been some cause for concern but I wouldn't worry about them too much. So long as she has someone with a level head to consult with she probably won't do anything too drastic.
[He has no idea. With as couped up as Anna has been she's willing to leap headlong into anything, without the benefit of solid reasoning]
Think nothing of it. It's the least I could do.
Then with any luck, it won't be too long before you can return home and meet up with her there. She's bound to be wondering what's become of you as well.
