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!

Merow?!

[Argh, was his guard that much lowered for a human to sneak up like that. Pink ears flicker along with his tail, piercings jingling with each movement.....

.... This guy looks a lot like the old man.... Wonder if he has the same type of name too....

Where did he come from? Wait, didn't the door lead to a pirate ship and if this is a pirate ship then...]

..... Are you a pirate? [Ears are fully perked up as Boris leans back a little to get a good look at the pirate behind him. Oh please say yes! OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE!]

I know how to be careful around these babies. [Cause hello, gun otaku here!]

[thatched]

[who the hell are you calling old?]

Aye, that I am. [he folds his arms and leans against the wall, smirking faintly] And who are you? Stowaway? Sneakthief?

[fabnguns]

(You. You are far older than him by far.

But OMG! OMG! THERE IS A REAL LIFE PIRATE!!!! The gun is completely forgotten in favor and hurrying over to examine and sniff at a real life pirate! And Tatch, please ignore the sound of joy that escaped his throat at the reveal.)

My name is Boris! Boris Airay sir! (Squeeeee! A pirate! A real life pirate!) Oh no sir.... I was exploring and the door led me to here. But if you must know, I am a Cheshire Cat! But not any old Cheshire but the most badass one you will ever see!

[thatched]

Is that so? [he laughs. He's not quite sure what a Cheshire cat is, but this guy...cat...thing is friendly enough. And polite besides. And if he was a cat...well]

I have something that might interest you. Come with me. [and if Boris follows, Thatch will lead him to a small room where they keep extra food stuffs that they don't need right away. Including a small cask of mint, which, he'd heard, was closely related to catnip. He pried open the lid of the cask and held it out]

Have a whiff.

Why do you want to do this?!?

[fabnguns]

Yeah, old man! (Boris couldn't help but to smile as much as he can.)

Oh? What is it? (Yeah of course he is gonna follow the awesome pirate! But when they entered the food room, catboi just gains a confused look and more and more... The older man is reminding him of the 'Dutchess' or Dutch in Gowland's case.)

What is it? (But after shifting his fur/boa, he leans over to take a few sniffs at the mint.) Its.... Mint?

Because I am evil

[thatched]

[there was that old man again. But maybe Thatch could get a little revenge for that comment. Just a small one]

Aye. Heard cats were fond of it.

[He crushes a leaf between his fingers, letting loose the pungent smell]

Is it true?

Truly evil.

[fabnguns]

[Oh come on man! Don't you know that being called that is respectful? Old farts these days, let Boris tell ya.]

Oh? Haven't seen much of any because of the old man.

[And whoa! WHAT IS THAT SMELL?! Why is it making his head feel a little funny. And what?.... What is he doing?

He didn't realize that he suddenly had his head in Thatch's hands in order to rub on the scent.]

[thatched]

[Thatch laughs and scritches behind the cat man's ears absently]

Like that smell, do you?

[fabnguns]

[What is he doing?! Why does his head feel so weird and now he is purring.... Purring for this man.

Cannot properly form words at the moment, just what is in that mint that is making him behave like this?! Also poof! He is now in the cute little fluffy cat form.]

[thatched]

Oh ho! Surprising creature aren't you?

[this world's equivalent of a zoan perhaps? He holds the fluffy cat in his arm, giving him lots of scritches and pets]

I guess the biggest question is, are you any good at catching mice?

[fabnguns]

[When Boris is back to being Boris again.... Pirate or no, he is so gonna get this old fart back for all of this.

WORDS CANNOT BE FORMED! STILL UNDER THE INFLUENCE AND IT IS MAKING HIM PURR UP A STORM! That and all the affection he is getting.

Pink and purple paws at move to try and 'catch' his fingers.]

[thatched]

[well until that time he will just be a cute kitty. Thatch wiggles his fingers to play, then gets a better idea and ties a sprig of mint to a string and dangles it in front of him]
