TEST DRIVE MEME
Considering apping into MASK OR MENACE? Want to dip your toes into the setting and get a feel of whether your character will fit into it? Or maybe you're just cruising and want to play around? Then you've come to the right place!

Pick any of the following scenarios below or feel free to make up your own, but don't be afraid to throw yourself at anyone's thread, either!

And remember to have fun!

    01. Your memory is hazy and you might feel increasingly frustrated or anxious, or maybe you're excited as soldiers march past, barely glimpsing you. One second you're somewhere underground, the next you're enveloped in blue light, and suddenly you find yourself directly under Flordia sun's bright and burning glare. A female soldier steps toward you with a wide smile on her face and directs you to a car, ready to debrief you. You realize you are not the only one, surrounded by equally confused or eager faces... and you're all sporting a digital tattoo on your wrist.

    02. Welcome to Cape Canaveral, where the smell of the ocean is in the air and locals are more than pleased to see new imPorts roaming their streets. They wave, they cheer, they ask for pictures as politely as they can. The more inhuman you look, or if you're wearing a costume, the more likely locals are to approach. Hey, enjoy the moment! The popular malt shop is offering you a free drink if you need it.

    03. The technology in this world is certainly something. The cars are clearly modeled after popular 50s cars, but they hover several feet above the ground as they drive down the street. There are digital jukeboxes in restaurants, motorcycles also hover through traffic, advertisements can be seen on a digital projector on the taller buildings. Even kids on skateboards appear to drift a safe ten feet off the ground while playing!

    04. Wherever you are, you can hear the loud revving of an engine, distance at first before you finally see it: a hovercar bursting around the corner, going beyond the maximum speed limit and just barely making its sharp turn. It doesn't appear to be slowing down any time soon, not with two police cars trailing it... and uh oh. Those skateboarding kids don't have much time to get out of the way as the car comes speeding down the road. You've been brought here for a reason Hero — so you better act fast.

[ jesus. do people not know how to walk in this place? what kind of shucking paradise is this supposed to be? by now he's figured that WICKED probably can't bring him back to life any, especially considering "griever chow" does not even begin to put it lightly what he was when he ran into them, so this has to be some kind of paradise.

then what the shuck is minho doing here.

he's got one hell of a rant ready to come out, but it registers who he's talking to, first. ]
Y-- [ he stops, stumbling back on his own from hitting against minho, and stares at him like he's lost his damn mind. ] Minho?!

[ That's right, Minho is here. Surprise! It's not paradise after all. It's hell. Shouldn't have committed so many sins.

Or, even more shockingly, it's another version of Earth, and there's a force here strong enough to pull people back from death. Even the ones that become Griever chow. Minho's heard a little about that, but it doesn't make this situation any less baffling.

He stands there, still looking shell shocked. Even his tone of voice sounds more dazed and confused than anything.

I swear if this is supposed to be someone's sick idea of a joke, I'm breaking someone's shuck face in.

The hell kind of joke do you think it is? It's me, you klunk for brains moron.

[ alby's grumpy temper shows itself as usual, mostly because he's flabbergasted that minho's either A) also dead or B) alby is indeed somehow alive. he likes to think that minho's more or less unkillable, probably because he'd insult death straight to its face before it took him off to his grave, but, he'd also thought that about newt, and that had not exactly been the case.

reaching up to rub his temples, alby gives minho a pinched look. ]
Stop staring and tell me what the hell's going on.
