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.

Oh- yeah, of course. [X takes Megaman's file and communicator. He'd probably hold anything that got shoved at him, provided it helped him get over to housing already.] Could I ask what you're planning to do...?

[Have the brightest of smiles, X.]

I'm going to see if I can access my comm's cyber world and tap the connection directly! My file said I should still be able to, but I, uh, haven't had a chance to test it out yet.

[Mostly Megaman had been too busy trying to deal with...well, everything to really be concerned about his abilities. The few times he did think about it, he just wasn't comfortable risking leaving the communicator and file laying around unattended. Protection of information and electronics is a top priority for netnavis.]

If it works, I should be able to find information on our housing a lot faster than I would from this end. [He shrugs.] And if it doesn't, well, at least I'll know for sure what my options are.

[Even as he says that, he's still grinning. He is so very sure that this will work. This is probably the closest to normal that things have been since he got here, and it's having a tremendous effect on his confidence and morale. Tiny datachild is being useful...!]
totalpacifist: BOOM. (you got this travis make 'em wait 4 it)

[personal profile] totalpacifist 2015-02-04 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Well. Don't let me keep you. [X has no idea how he's going to do it, but maybe this tiny reploid child has compatible software. GO ON, YOUNG MAN. GO FORTH INTO THE WILD CYBER YONDER.]
