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!

[He's still looking at Sakura and waiting for her to spit it out since it seems like the cat's got her tongue or something. Then he gets a little annoyed because he just wanted to enjoy his booze and now the asshole pirate is here again and it's probably because Sakura attracted attention to Shepard's table that he was seen in the first place and just--

He just wants to drink and relax, you assholes.

There's another click and then a loud shot as Shepard's Carnifex fires. It might be a testament to his skill as a marksman that he's not even looking to aim, but the round hits asshole pirate's pegleg and shatters it, sending the poor bastard falling on his face with a loud thud and making the entire bar silent. Shepard then looks over the table to speak down to the guy.]

It's rude to interrupt a lady when she speaks. [Sometimes he gets a little carried away when he's drunk.]

[wow such smooth shepard

WHAT JUST HAPPENED

The explosion of sound has her finally tugging out her kunai and moving defensively, nearly jumping out of her seat as the burly man goes toppling to the ground. As if her hair and everything else about her hadn't called enough attention, it now looks like Sakura was the one to attack the man since she's got the kunai out and Shepard is sitting there NONCHALANTLY like he hasn't just blown a leg off. Even if it WAS wooden.

Yeah, she has ALL of the attention now in the dead silence and slowly she tucks away her weapon.]

I... should go.

[Yeah, he's still sitting there like fuck all nothing happened. And did she just use his thing? Hell, he doesn't even care. He's actually amused now and not really annoyed anymore. Thanks for the fun night, Pinky. He'll just give a little toast of his mug towards her and a nod.]

You should come back sometime. This is my favorite bar on the island.

[it's not your thing you don't own the phrase!

She's really uncertain about him and she got almost NO information and ALL trouble now, thanks to him. She just frowns a little, pushes her chair in, and steps over the body of the pegless pirate towards the exit.

Stage left.]

At least I'll know where find you, Commander. [If she needs to talk to him or if life is boring and she wants to wind up in trouble for something she didn't even do. Or get him back for it all.

AND OFF SHE GOES BEFORE SHE HAS TO GET INTO A FIST FIGHT AND BASICALLY DESTROY SHEPARD'S FAVORITE BAR BECAUSE MONSTER STRENGTH.]
