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.

[Kate's one of his oldest friends, or at least the ones still around. There's only really the three of them left from the days of six teenagers trying to fill a void without really knowing what they were doing. And unlike his boyfriend, he's almost never had to worry about Kate at all. She's always been the most confident of them.

He can understand the relief, though. He loves Billy, but he's not always the easiest person to deal with, especially if he needs help and won't admit it.]

Thanks, Kate. It's not like it's a big deal, everyone's just trying to be friendly, but sometimes the enthusiasm gets a little overwhelming.

[Not that he'd admit that to almost anyone else.]

So you're here too. Think they're trying to collect the full set?

[selfequipped]

At different points, they've had almost all of us. You're actually pretty late, come to think of it. [And at one point, they had all of the most recent "main" Young Avengers, sans Teddy. The arrival of everyone but Teddy had been hard on Billy especially. Even Kate had begun to think that he really wasn't in the plans for this world (though "even Kate" is a little inaccurate—confident or not, she's never been without her set of worries).]

But you'll like what we've got going here. We've even brought a few new people into the fold. [And a specific old one, but Kate isn't going to spring the "Loki's back and I'll yell at him for being a jerk" right off.]
