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.

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
Tch, fine! [Whatever got you to agree to come with him, Junpei. Who knows when he'd have to return the favor, and for what... but Kanji wasn't thinking that far ahead. All he wanted were small baked treats covered in icing.]
...Pocky. Why the hell would I want pocky, anyway? [Death City didn't carry any good flavors anyway. Maybe he should start checking Metokkori R more often...]
no subject
[He'd think of something! Maybe a kind of food you can only get in some obscure restaurant somewhere! He'd heard about the "Four Horsemen" burger once on some weird tv show he saw... wondered if Kanji'd be up for that sometime! Or was there a game he could pick up back in Japan...? He'd really need to think on it.]
[At Kanji's question, a grin spread on Junpei's face, and he started walking a bit faster, moving to overtake Kanji on the steps--]
I dunno, maybe you could play the pocky game with someone~?
[Annnd getting a good distance between them before Kanji could think too hard about it!]
C'mon, let's go!
oh god not a Four Horsemen burger D8
[He idly listened as Junpei spoke, passing him by. Good, he was picking up the pace--]
...
[Come again? The what. Oh, you son of a--]
Th-the hell's that supposed to mean!?
[And after him he goes. Was... was he getting at something!? He better not be getting at something!!]
COME ON KANJI YOU MAN ENOUGH FOR THE CHALLENGE?!
[Junpei only laughed at Kanji's spluttering, racing up the stairs to keep himself ahead of the mad bull behind him.]
Nothin', nothin'! You just wanted a reason, so I gave you one!
[Oh, he was totally getting at something, but like hell he'd say it out loud! Good thing Junpei had decent stamina though, cause goddamn these steps...]
S-so where we goin', anyway?
[Convenient change of subject!]
no subject
[BECAUSE HE WOULD NEVER EVER PLAY IT. EVER.
Maybe.][And you better have stamina, boy, because he was ready to chase you to the ends of Death City and back! Fortunately for him, today he'd been running all over the city as it was trying to find a store that sold animal crackers. He eventually slowed and instead went to bore holes in Junpei's back. He hopes you feel that glare.]
Anywhere that ain't here! [Honestly, somewhere in Nevada. The supply routes must have been held up or something.]
Maybe Vegas. I dunno. [Well hey, color him curious.]
