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.

[ Immediately, Chise yanks herself back to dodge the oncoming spill of sticky vanilla mess now covering the table. And to avoid the onslaught of bright colors in her face. He was like the idiot king of the fairies, Oberon. ]

Can I help you?

[ She asks in a voice that implied she very much wouldn't want to. ]
ballbutt: (human: mocking)

Noooope! You just looked so scared I thought I'd help release some of that tension! Kehehehe!

[Judging from the somewhat malicious grin on his face, that was the exact opposite of his intention. And he didn't plan on going anywhere soon.]

Plus, I saw you do something veeeeery interesting. Colour me curious!! [He giggled at the joke he made on his own name.] Something vanished into thin air, and I wanna know how you did it!

No, you didn't.

[ Chise said stiffly, wary of strangers. Especially brightly-colored ones that could apparently see her doing magic out in the open. ]

I was just humming to myself while cleaning my shirt off with a napkin.
ballbutt: (human: oh reaaaally?)

Lying's a very bad thing to do, missy! Plus, if you're going to lie, you shouldn't make it so obvious! I never said what disappeared~!

[He can tell she's wary of him, and it just makes needling her all the more fun.]

[personal profile] deosil 2015-01-31 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Who are you?

[ Chise balked at his further pressing and being called missy. Growing more and more suspicious of him. No one other than fairies or demons were this strongly drawn to her, and neither of those were good. ]
ballbutt: (human: :D)

[She may be overestimating the danger he posed to towards her, though. Colorman was just naturally drawn to those who could provide him amusement, and seeing her squirm under his constant badgering was entertainment.]

Me? I'm Colorman! I'm just a normal person! A very very normal person!

[A very obvious lie there, which would serve to fuel Chise's suspicions most likely.]

A normal person named Colorman.

[ The incredulity comes off her tongue heavy as molasses. ]
ballbutt: (human: malicious grin)

[personal profile] ballbutt 2015-01-31 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
That's right! A normal person named Colorman!

[Hey, his name was normal by Navi standards! But of course he knows no human has a name like that so he just gives her an impish grin, as if daring her to ask the obvious question.]
