TEST DRIVE MEME JUNE 2013

Test Drive Meme

For the app cycle periods between June 1, 2013 to August 15, 2013.
[App Form] [Reserves Page]

This meme is here to let prospective characters mingle ICly with the characters already in the game and each other. It helps us introduce various scenarios that you're likely to encounter in Soul Campaign and the different places used in the game. Hopefully, this helps you figure out if the game is really suited to your needs or not -- otherwise, just have fun!

The scenarios for this cycle are:
1. You've just come back from a mission and it's late. All you want to do is get back to your room. Unfortunately, the moon is beginning to drool again! Run home before you get gooped, or join the local kids in a game of Dodge the Drool!
2. You and your partner's mission was going well... at first. Now you're trapped in a warehouse with a massive kishin egg sniffing the both of you out. How will you get out of this situation with your lives?
3. There's a heat wave in Death City! Temperatures soar! Even though it's a dry heat, it's still unbearable. Challenge your friends to a popsicle-eating contest or try frying an egg on the sidewalk. Either way the sun's entertained.
4. You're late for class! But the Shibusen stairs await...
5. Fastest way to find a partner is to introduce yourself with bad pickup lines. Your time starts now!

Just choose any one randomly, or make up your own, we don't mind! To make things simpler, please follow this subject line:

[CHARACTER NAME | CANON or FANDOM CHARACTER IS FROM | MEISTER OR WEAPON | SCENARIO# (or indicate if it's a new scenario)]

For example: [SPIRIT ALBARN | SOUL EATER | WEAPON | #1]

For OOC discussions and generally just chatting around, please head over here.

Here's the Soul Campaign Navigation Page for all the other information you need.

As an extra note, you may add your TD threads to your application although it is not a requirement to do so and will not count towards activity checks. Please place it under the Notes section if you do.

[Looking at him and

yep, it's a little shit. It's like I'm really talking to Raiden.]

The most efficient weapon is the best weapon. All the skill in the world won't help when the other guy can kill you from a kilometer away.

[redregrets]

_{[A little shit? Him? Yeah, Snake's pretty spot on there.]} Yeah, well, different weapons are efficient in different situations. A gun is useless if your target is aware of their surroundings and they have good cover. It's also useless if you don't have any bullets, whereas you can always kill with a blade. You don't need to resharpen it every time you need to use it.

[sneakthatshit]

And a blade is completely useless if your target is aware of their surroundings, especially in a confined environment. Even in an open environment, all an enemy needs to do is take one step forward and they're inside your range.

[Taking a quick drag.]

Trying coming at me with a blade sometime and I'll give you a free lesson.

I don't normally do this but I don't need kids dying on the battlefield trying to prove a wrong point.

[redregrets]

_{[Oh hell no.]} I've had more than enough combat experience, thanks. I know what I'm fucking doing. I'm not your average kid. _{[He wants to say that he's not a kid, but yeah he's had that argument way too often already.]}

[sneakthatshit]

When you get past the idea that swords are somehow better than guns, I might stop calling you a kid. Until then, you might want to spend some time with Otacon and watch some of his Japanimations or whatever.

[Cause that's the only place it's gonna happen DOH HO HO.]

[redregrets]

What is your problem with bladed weapons? Did you have a bad experience or something? You have to know someone that's at least competent with a blade. And I never said swords. That's Dave's thing not mine.

Fuck no. I'm not watching shit. You aren't going to change my mind.

[sneakthatshit]

[Because Big Boss uses knives and CQC and Snake isn't doing that shit unless its an emergency!!!

Not that anyone else knows that.]

I live in the time where the battlefield evolved. That's all. I can use whatever weapon you throw at me but guns are better.

[FACT.]

[redregrets]

Huh. Alright, I guess I get it. We all have our preferred weapon. I have a friend that's a gun, but uh, he's not your average gun.

[sneakthatshit]

You're going to have to define 'average'.

[redregrets]

Well, I'm pretty sure humans don't have any guns that are anything like the Crosshairs. It's a harpoon gun, but it shoots energy, like lasers and shit. I don't know all that much about it, but Eridan could probably tell you.
