TEST DRIVE MEME JULY 2012
Test Drive Meme
[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. The BREW summons you into the Kishin Chamber during a power outage, along with a bunch of other strangers.
2. You're trapped in a blizzard during a mission to Greenland, and must now huddle with your partner for warmth. Your partner may or may not be someone you know.
3. You've intercepted an important piece of intel about the way to enter the witches' realm. It's kind of really embarrassing, however. Maybe you should try it out first to see if it's true?
4. Shortages are not uncommon during wars, and this time around the entire city has run out of coffee/tea/[insert character's favorite substance]. What lengths will you go to to get your fix?
5. There's a perfect mission for you on the mission bulletin board! The problem is, you're required to crossdress as your opposite gender.
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.
[ Junpei Iori | Persona 3 | Weapon | Your Choice! ]
4
Oh lord Kanji's craving something. THIS IS NOT A GOOD SIGN.
[Annnd the BANGING was enough to startle Junpei out of his zoned out gamer state, sending him from the couch to the floor. It took him a moment to sit up, tangled up in the pile of clothing he'd left there.]
What the heck?!
[Did he have a mission he was scheduled to go on but missed? No, he was sure there was nothing set up... so who the hell was it? Was it some sort of emergency, an attack on the city?!]
H-hang on!
[He stumbled up, running over to the door and opening it wide to see... well, his sorta kohai standing infront of him. Geez, he'd never get used to looking up at this guy...]
Kanji-san? W-what's up?! Is there an attack or somethin'?!
[He'd definitely needed to get in on the action if that was the case!]
no subject
[He peeked around the shorter boy. Nope. Junpei didn't have guests, and the game was paused. He had no excuse.]
I can't use the Shinigami's mirror without a Weapon.
no subject
[Could have fooled him, the way you were banging the door! Junpei was tempted to check it to make sure Kanji hadn't left a dent, geez. But regardless of that, what was the reason for coming to his place to drag him off?]
Wait, wha? Why me?
[It wasn't that he minded, really... he was just level grinding in Disgaea 4, and that wasn't exactly a NEED TO DO RIGHT NOW activity, but colour him a bit confused.]
I mean, you got a partner already, right? Or Naoto-kun... they busy or somethin'?
[In spite of his questions, Junpei was already leaning down to pull on his shoes. He was up for some explorin', after all!]
no subject
[He checked left, checked right...]
This ain't about a mission.
no subject
[He said this good naturedly, a grin on his face. It was good to know he was trusted by Kanji. The giant of a guy seemed kinda standoffish at first (Reminding him of Shinjiro-senpai a bit), so Junpei wasn't sure how well they'd get along. But he really wondered why he of all people was who Kanji could turn to... was it something to do with Naoto-kun? Was he looking for dating advice? Not that he was really an expert... but he could fake it pretty well!]
[After a moment or two more-- leaning back to grab his wallet from the table next to the door and slipping it into his pocket-- Junpei straightened up, giving Kanji a thumbs up.]
Alright, lead the way!
no subject
[And no this was not for dating advice, what the hell do you know, Junpei!? J-jeez...]
Tch... Y'think somebody woulda sent some of us to keep the supply lines tight.
[How delightfully vague, Kanji.]
no subject
[Annnd oooh, he knew enough, Kanji. Like how you'd always blush around Naoto, giving him 'meaningful' looks all the time and standing just slightly closer than normal 'good friends' should stand. Junpei wasn't school smart by any stretch of the imagination, but he was okay at reading people.]
Huh?
[He blinked at Kanji's words, looking up at him as they walked along.]
Supply lines? What, the city short on somethin'?
[He glanced up at the sky, thinking. Was there anything he remembered hearing was running out? Nothing came to mind... at least, nothing he used himself.]
no subject
...Yeah. Yeah it is.
[Oh good, he was going to start giving up details. It was when they were halfway up those endless stairs leading up to Shibusen that he finally coughed up the details.]
I checked every damn store, but they're all out!
[With a sigh of frustration, he glared ahead. Gotta get to that mirror.]
How the hell's a guy supposed to get his animal crackers if they can't even keep 'em on the shelves, huh!?
1/2
So what is it, dude?
[Junpei haaated these stairs so much. He didn't mind exercise or sports-- hell, the only course he ever aced in school was PE-- but this many steps?! Who's idea WAS this?]
...Wait. What?
[Did he hear that right? He paused mid step, staring at the back of Kanji's head.]
You're seriously taking the mirror for... animal crackers?! You got me out of my apartment, walking up these damn steps... for just--
2/2
[Man, now he was really annoyed...]
no subject
Besides, it ain't the same! They got really good frosted ones here, but they're all out.
...So I'm gonna go to a town that's got 'em. We'll be in n' out in ten minutes.
no subject
I know it ain't the same, but...
[Junpei let out a sigh, shaking his head. Well, he was already half way up the steps... and hell, he could do with some sight seeing, where ever they ended up.]
Alright, alright... I'll still go with ya. But!
[Holding up his pointer finger, he glared at Kanji with a determined expression on his face.]
Next time I'm wanting somethin' I can't get here in the city, you're gonna come with me with no complaints or questions, alrigh'?
[Fair's fair, and all that...]
(no subject)
(no subject)
oh god not a Four Horsemen burger D8
COME ON KANJI YOU MAN ENOUGH FOR THE CHALLENGE?!
(no subject)
5... just because Investigation
Oooh, this'll be fun.
[Junpei on the other hand, is just pissed off. Maybe a bit embarrassed too.]
How's crossdressin' supposed to help fighting these damn Kishin eggs?!
[Where was he supposed to get a girly girl dress?! Would he have to shave his legs? He's damn well not shaving his soul patch for this...! But really, what pissed him off the most was that the mission was otherwise too damn good to pass up...]
no subject
[Which was much more important. Usually, the investigations had to deal with the Witches themselves instead of simply go here and hunt that. She checked the mission spec copy she received. Ah, they had to go as female.]
no subject
[Sorry Naoto, he was still getting used to this kinda stuff... and really, his eyes had stuck too much on the whole 'crossdressing' thing for him to really focus on what else it said.]
[He leaned over the detective's shoulder, peeking at the spec. It was useful Naoto was so small...]
So we gotta go as girls, huh? Damnit...
[He pulled away again, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand, sighing through his nose.]
I mean, at least you'd make a cute looking girl, Naoto-san, no way in hell I could pull it off without lookin' like a horse...
[There was a pause, and Junpei jumped back, waving a hand dismissively, suddenly looking nervous.]
N-not that I've thought about that or anything! H-heh!
[Ahahaha...hah. Damnit. Was it normal to feel like an idiot around Naoto-san a lot? There was just something intimidating about the guy...]
no subject
... We'll be passable. Come on.
[Shibusen had a room for them to change in. She'll dress him up and... and then get ready herself.]
no subject
[Because really, for once Junpei was going to be a pessimistic. Seriously though, he did NOT have the body to pass for a chick! He was way too lanky and had no curves to speak of at all... Plus you know. Facial hair.]
[Either way, he'd follow the boy to the room, trying to wrap his head around how this could possibly work.]
I can't remember, did they actually say on the message WHY the whole 'dress like a chick' thing is mandatory?
[He'd read enough manga to know this could go in very bad, unwanted and awkward directions.]
So... uh. How d'we do this?
[He had no idea where to even start...]
no subject
[It isn't optimism... it really isn't. Fortunately, Naoto has experience making boys look like girls. That isn't something to brag about, but dammit if it helps them here.]
[She's looking through the clothes provided, picking out some that should be big enough for Junpei, but baggy enough for a few more tweaks here and there.]
No, it did not.
[She holds out the clothes to him]
Put these on.
no subject
[Junpei stood back, watching the shorter boy search through the clothing, feeling himself shift from one leg to the other in awkwardness.]
You got experience lookin' at girls clothin' or something?
[Wouldn't surprise him, somehow, considering how much Naoto-san seemed to know... He only sighed at Naoto's response. Great, so they were walking into this with no idea what exactly they were doing... just that they had to look like girls to do it.]
Heh...Think I should raise my voice a bit?
[He said that in a falsetto voice with a bit of a 'giggle'... even if it wasn't very convincing at all. It was hard to describe, but it just sounded like "Junpei Iori trying to sound what he thinks a girl sounds like" and less "Girls voice". But he blinked when Naoto handed the clothing to him, reaching out to take it.]
Wow, that was fast... What about you? You need any help?
[He was trying to prolong this as looong as possible to avoid the inevitable. He didn't wanna wear girls clooothiiiinnng...]
no subject
[She didn't want to admit to him about the school pageant. Anyway, Naoto was sure they would be fine as long as Junpei followed her lead.]
Uhm... perhaps you shouldn't say anything.
[Not that she was... no, she was discouraging him. There was no way that voice would pass. It was just completely off. Immediately, she shook her head]
No, I can dress myself. Just go get changed.
no subject
[At Naoto's reaction to his voice, Junpei simply grinned, before continuing, his voice still in that awful falsetto.]
Awwww, Naoto-kun, you're sooooo mean! I can totally pull off a girl's voice, and no one would ever know I'm a dude!
[But... he couldn't keep up the voice for long before he started to laugh, unable to keep up the charade.]
Heheh, just jokin'! I won't say a peep while we're on the case, alright? Don't wanna blow our cover.
[But he had to bite the bullet, didn't he? He sighed, putting the clothing under his arm and turning to go to the side room.]
Alright, let's get this over with...
[Opening the door, he paused for a moment before glancing back at Naoto, his expression a bit uncertain.]
Uh... y-ya think I'm going need to, um... stuff?
[You know, he's rather flat chested, after all...]
no subject
[She grimaced, but kept her face looking away. Just like Yosuke... Just like Yosuke. Hm, perhaps she should've given him a mini-skirt then. Where are the wigs?]
Wise decision.
[Though, she could always elbow him for speaking. At 'stuff', she rolls her eyes]
Iori-san, there are girls our age with small chest sizes. Still, I suppose I can do something, but you need to change first.
