Test Drive for September 2013 Apps

[highseasmods]

Welcome to our first Test Drive for high_seas! Here is where players can test out their characters' voices, 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!

Threats?

[ Forget that 'almost'. He does feel sick. ]

S' that... what you see when you look at me?

[jawsthatbite]

If I saw you as a threat, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Track, observe, and eliminate. That's how I was trained to operate and even here, I will act upon my training.

...do you think that you're a threat that I need to elimate?

[ There is a quiet moment as he gives this due consideration. His tone isn't as pronounced as it has been in this conversation, something that now might be hard to hear. He doesn't want to shout it across the ship, yet... ]

I might be.

[jawsthatbite]

[And that response makes Jabberwock give Sefton a soft smile.]

Then you aren't one. Whatever you're hiding is potentially dangerous, but you're doing your best from having it be activated and you're afraid of what would happen if you used it. That doesn't make you a threat at all. In fact, it makes you the opposite.

[polarization]

But... would you?

[ There's the question. Sefton would rather die than truly make someone suffer in obliviousness from his power again. If Jabberwock doesn't seem him as a threat, sees his measures as enough, does that mean he'd look the other way for an accident? ]

[jawsthatbite]

Yes, I would.

[There's not even a pause when Jabberwock says that. A threat is a threat, even if it's a kid.]

[polarization]

[ Sefton is quiet a moment before he goes back to leaning on the railing. ]

Okay.

[ There might be an unspoken thanks in there. ]
