Test Drive for June 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!

Just a feeling? Ignore it! Feelings are often useless.

Especially since I know what your voice sounds like now. I'll just follow my ears. [He can't actually track people that way.]

[feewaytoogood]

Feelings have kept me alive.

And if you try to follow me, and are in any way dangerous, be assured I have very good aim.

[thevoidlooksback]

Only feelings? Not skill? That's kinda sad.

I strongly recommend against shooting me, it's really annoying. I don't like being annoyed, and most people don't like me annoyed either.

[feewaytoogood]

So you're just annoying instead? [He's noticed this already; what does that say] And my skill is just fine. But if you'd like to not get shot, how about stabbed? I'm quite proficient with my knife too... and if you so much as make a dick joke... [Because, really, something tells Leon that might come up because no one he knows is fully mature]

[thevoidlooksback]

Your people skills are positively AWFUL. [Sounds... oddly pleased.]

Dicks? Why, the thought never crossed my mind! WhyEVER would it cross yours? We haven't even exchanged names yet. [Does that count as a dick joke?]

[feewaytoogood]

My people skills are fine. [They totally aren't... And he's so not even answering the question] You don't need my name.

[thevoidlooksback]

[Chuckles again.]

Nope, sure don't. Still going to meet you.

You really are fun. [Sounds a little less creepy this time. Maybe.]

[feewaytoogood]

... I hope not.

[Dude, seriously, you're creeping him out]

[thevoidlooksback]

Fine, fine, if you insist. I'm still going to FIND you. But if that's really what you want, I'll just watch quietly from the shadows.

[Creepy? Yes, yes, good.]

[feewaytoogood]

...

[Yup, this conversation is over; Leon is not going to respond.]

[thevoidlooksback]

Glad we're both on the same page then! See you REAL soon.

[And Shadows snaps his journal shut! ...And unless he gets distracted by something shiny, really is going to search for his new buddy~!]
