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.

[ He earns a laugh and a warm smile in return, even as one of the hands rises and pauses, silently asking permission to touch. ]

I must concede that not all your wiles came from me, I suppose. [ The same teasing egotism, only Frigga mediates it a lot more than her son when she isn't in his company. Her expression softens as she hesitates in touching his face, not wanting to alarm him, and a sigh falls from her as she weighs him up and down. ] Whatever have you been doing with yourself, Loki?

[ The look she gives him stays the words More mischief, if they even think of crossing his tongue. ]

[ Loki doesn't give her permission, nor does he deny her. she's not the mother he knows, and her crimes against committed for a better Asgardia weren't hers against him. it made it difficult to split the difference, not to seek comfort or to linger amid the events that happened that day in the Asgardian dungeon. ]

Oh, you know--getting into trouble, ruining things. A little bit of breaking and entering. I thought to take a little multiversal romp. Nothing that you'd approve of, I'm sure. [ and then, somehow, his expression brightens with his next few words. he looks all too gleeful. ] And nothing father would approve of, either.

[ so, that's technically not just "mischief" and all technically true. ]

[allmothers]

[ It's been so long since she touched the Loki she already knows, separated by the prison walls, that she does give into a moment of weakness and briefly brush his cheek, her hands lowering to find a home in the sides of her dress when he mentions Odin. ]

Loki, do not make things harder on yourself where he is concerned.

[ Why is it always him and not Thor, she raised you right, boy. Meanwhile, the son she has been forced to leave in another dimension is locked up in a vault, and she does feel tired when she is forced to bring that thought into sharper relief (it never leaves, truly, for who will visit him now? I must get home).

She takes his arm, coaxing him to walk with her. ]

[ his breath releases as her hand falls, either from relief or part of a natural motion of things. it's so difficult to tell with him, masking one gesture with another that could be. ]

Oh, I don't plan on it. Actually, I think I'd rather like to make things just a tad difficult for him.

[ all right, that's a little painfully honest, but it's no secret in the Asgard that he hails. even Thor has butted heads with their father during trying times. of course, Loki has also had the momentary wonder of listening to Odin proclaim his love for his child, so it's not said without a hint of affection.

he walks along with her like a perfect gentleman in a Midgardian sweatshirt. ]

We could see how deep of a shade of scarlet he can turn, and make bets on how quickly he can get there.
