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.

That's a pretty name. [ And it was. Hime was looking at Sakura, with her pretty name and her pretty clothes and almost instantly decided that come hell or high water, she was gonna be friends with this girl. ]

Anyway, I've been here for a couple of months now, so if you've got any questions about this place, feel free to ask me them!

Oh? Um, thank you. [Then again she's never really considered much on her name because it just is. Not something she had any control over or that she could change. At least until she was older, even if she wanted to.]

Really? I...I guess I have a few. They talk about being Registered and being heroes. But what about school? Or getting back home?

[personal profile] friendshiprocks 2015-02-06 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, there is school here. I'm in my last year at Heropa Middle School. It's nice, though there's a big difference between these schools and the Japanese schools back home. [ And speaking of home...Hime pauses for a moment, obviously not so sure how to breach this. ]

As for your other question...well, we can't really go home.

There is? How big? Because I still don't think I'm that great with Maths. Or English....but mostly maths.

[But it is probably too much to hope that maths is no longer a Thing in school anymore. It can't just be all about music and cooking and gym like Sakura would adore.

But that last gives her pause. Her eyes widen and her face pales a bit at hearing that.]


How do you mean? If there's a way here, there has to be a way back, right? I know they brought us here for a reason, but people back home will need me too!
