Fourth Permanent Test Drive Meme

Welcome to the SoE TDM!

Due to the premise of the game, everyone on this testdrive must be the modern day reincarnation of the characters we all know and love. Please take a quick look at our navigation to familiarize yourself with the concept and setting of the game before you jump in.

If you have a relationship plotting post comment for your character (which is NOT mandatory to play in this tdm), please link to it when putting up a toplevel on the TDM. That way, other players can easily get an idea of what kind of character they will be tagging.

Other than that, you know the tdm drill - when commenting, please put your character's name and canon in the subject line, and write one or more threadstarters so others can tag you easily. Below, you'll find some prompts that you can use or discard at will to write those threadstarters.

1. I wanna take you to a gay bar

Mossgate is sometimes called the British LGBTQ+-community's retirement village - despite not being a village and having a fair amount of younger LGBTQ+ people too. Either way, it has a bustling community, which offers a culture centre, a cinema, bars (including the Hive), and much more. And then there's Pride once a year, of course. Many options to go out and meet people.

2. A night at the zoo

You've come for a moonlight tour at the zoo, so you can see the animals there in the twilight hours - a very intimate experience, as only your small group of people is there. A simple dinner is served at the zoo's cafeteria, and then off you go. Not into the enclosures, but still - the quiet of the after-hours zoo and the different time brings out many timid creatures that normally, you can barely glance. And experiencing this together with a small group of people perhaps facilitates new friendships, or at least interesting conversations...

3. Who am I and if yes, how many?

It's not always easy to remember to just be yourself in these trying times. But it gets especially complicated when you were just going to shoo a mouse out of your car - or maybe you spotted it in the street and ran away screaming instead, whatever floats your boat - and then suddenly you're hit with a terrible memory that most definitely doesn't belong in your current life.

Maybe it's traumatic, maybe it's just deeply embarassing or sad, but either way, this is not the kind of memory that is easy to stomach.

4. Past tdm prompts

Feel free to use a prompt from an earlier tdm!

5. Wildcard

And, of course, the obligatory do-what-you-want option.

[Pyrrha's a young athlete, sporty and tough.]

[1]
Hey! How's it going?

[The Hive is in full swing tonight, including the club downstairs. Familiar faces mingle about, swapping stories and other things. But there's a unfamiliar face among the ranks tonight: and they're coming up to the first person her eyes meet with (preferable with drinks), and flashing a winning smile..]

I'm new around here. Kind of hoping I can get some directions.

[2]
Kind of a shame about the animals, right?

[Are you standing near Victoria? Not even paying attention? Doesn't matter. She's gesturing to a cage that may or may not be empty.]

It's nice being here at night, but... what if we're annoying some of the sleeping ones? They need their rest too!

[5 | Network]
[The view in this video is murky and... brown. Sifting fluids pass over the screen- whatever it may be. It's not a normal chat set up on a laptop, that's for sure. For starters, it seems to be pointing straight up at a ceiling, nothing in view. Until Victoria leans over the screen, red hair falling in her face that she hastily brushes aside.

She squints. Her eyes light up, going wide like saucers.]

Yes! [She laughs and jumps back.]

I knew I could write that big number into a milkshake! I'm a genius!

[A genius who now has a disembodied face peering up from the milkshake's murky surface, squinting as he tries to make sense of what he just heard.]

Did you say a milkshake?

[He has to laugh, because as baffled as he is, he's imagining what it must be like from her end.]

How did you think to... Why did you try it? Oh my god. You have to tell us if it tastes strange, after.

You bet I said a milkshake!

[...]

Oh holy shit my milkshake is talking to me.

Of course it is, you just wrote your number in it... Wait. Don't tell me.

Was this the first time you did?

[He doesn't recognize this number on first glance, but there's always the chance that they've lurked about without talking before.]

[Merle doesn't have drinks, she barely has enough money to be here in the first place. But that has never stopped her from going anywhere, as long as you move around enough and hang with people who do have drinks, nobody will notice. The trick is to arrive just buzzed enough to have fun and sober enough to still get in.

But what she has is a grin for the young woman smiling at her.] What kind of directions are you looking for?

[On the opposite side of things, Pyrrha has drinks; drinks she got with the money she has! And she looks just buzzed enough to be fun, and sober enough to still care.]

Directions... on how to come up with a better pickup line? That one was awful.

[Her grin broadens a bit as she raises an eyebrow.]

Oh, so you want me to? Seems to have been successful enough, then.
