Test Drive for February 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!

Depends on the ramen.

[He answers her thoughts but leans back, hands locking behind his head.]

But it's just beef without ramen, so it's not going to be as good. I'm tired of the crap we eat on the boat, y'know. Maybe I should make my own ramen.

[Hey. Sakura PICKS OUT that crap. Oranges are GOOD FOR YOU.]

What's wrong with what we eat?

Not enough ramen.

[Or any at all.]

[That's what's wrong with it.]

[HMPH.

Now pointing at him and she's all offended because she's taking it personal.]

You could do well to put something in your diet other than ramen! I pick foods that are healthy for a life at sea. We need plenty of fruits and vegetables so we don't get sick. Plus, heavy foods like ramen don't help with motion sickness either.

[BEEF iS SLAMMED DOWN IN FRONT OF THEM stopping any further lecture by Sakura. And it is what it is, a huge slab of meat. Not very appetizing. She shoots Naruto a disconcerted look before addressing the barkeep.]

I... could I get a fork?

[He sort of sinks in his seat a little and debates hiding under the table because Sakura can get scary when she goes off on a rant. Sometimes those rants are punctuated with her destroying furniture or whacking him if he can't keep his mouth shut, and considering his big mouth, he usually can't stay quiet.

Her attention is gone from him, however, when the beef arrives. Naruto leans forward and blinks at it and then pokes it with his finger. The stuff is so overcooked his finger just disappears several inches into the meat.]

... Can we please go somewhere else?

[Smacks that hand away with a scowl. DON'T POKE IT YOU BARBARIAN.

It's tempting. There's other place to get information.

But the barkeep is standing there staring at them and especially Naruto for being SO RUDE. Sakura looks around at the rest of the bar and swallows audibly before look down at the beef.]

Maybe it's... better than it looks.

[Or feels.]

[He yelps like a wounded dog when she smacks his hand, and then he continuously rubs it to make it feel better as he stares at the meat. It looks like shit, and there is no way he's going to eat it. Besides, Sakura seems to think it'll be fine.]

Then you can eat it all, y'know.
