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.

[She's not quite letting it melt or shoveling it the way Kero would if he were here, but taking her time quick enough to not waste it or not be able to enjoy it. She gives a considering 'hm' at the question, glancing from the sundae as she has another mouthful over to her file. Swallowing before answering.]
Ah, a little. I'm still not sure...I mean, I'm just a kid. But I'll do my best!
[Look at that determined face. Even if she's still not entirely sure what to make of all this. That desire to help won't change or fade, regardless of the circumstances she finds herself thrust into.]
no subject
Still, she seems to be made from some pretty sturdy stuff, and he replies with an encouraging grin.]
Well said, you lady. Just as long as you know that you don't have to do anything that scares you too much, and certainly not alone. Since we're all in this situation, it would be a bit silly of us not to help each other out, if you see what I mean?
no subject
[Because Toya is a douche and kept telling Sakura all those he saw which freaked her out as a kid and has stuck with her since. But she still seems to agree, still determined as she nods and tries to distract herself from the fact she has yet to find any of her friends or family.]
Ah, I guess you're right though. I mean, I haven't found dad or my brother. Or my friends.....but that doesn't mean I can't make new ones here.
