HE TOLD ME SEVERAL TIMES THAT HE DIDN'T LIKE MY KIND

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 someone else's thread, either!

And remember to have fun!

01. The city of Heropa is what one might expect from a small, bright and cheery place, where locals are friendly enough and local shop owners might offer a free drink to welcome you to their fair city. Some of the locals might thank you for always lending your service to the nation and others might not say anything. In fact, some people might back away from any imPort who quite obviously looks like they aren't from around the neighborhood. Once in a while there's a look of disdain on someone's face and hushed voices.

An upset, deeply masculine voice wonders aloud: "More of them, when we already know they can't protect us? That's just painting a bigger target on the city's back!"

"That's just what Ronald Chump says!" Exclaims a young woman. She raises her fist in anger at the imPort-hating individual. "We're not going to tolerate bigots here!"

02. De Chima, Virginia, is a large city with a healthy economy, and though it's quieter, there are just as many citizens awed at your presence. Science and technology are the lifeblood of this city, so you're likely to come across a good many locals taking your picture with the newest of devices. Be forewarned: since FanPort happened, imPort fandom is at a new height. Don't be surprised if people start following you just to see if you'll do anything TMZ-worthy.

The trick is to stay calm, and don't wig out if someone asks what you think about imPort shipping.

03. Maurtia Falls, Pennsylvania, is having a rainy day. The streets seem to be running with water, the sky can't seem to stop crying. You might want to check out some consumerism-inclined shelter, be that a smoky and dart-eyed bar full of grumbling locals, or a grimy and industrial coffee shop (full of grumbling locals). Watch your step, newly minted imPort, because if you let on that you're fresh meat then you're likely to attract a posse of two or three sharp knuckled no-good-dooers. This is the criminally exciting part of town, so beware.

04. Nonah, North Carolina, is the liveliest of all cities; loud, busy and there's some kind of energy in the air that gets everyone buzzing with excitement. There's a baseball game going on in one of the parks amidst all those tall buildings, and you're welcome to watch! It's not an official game in the season, it's more like a friendly skirmish between local baseball teams. Midway through the game, the umpire might take note of you new imPorts -- assuming you're standing out in the crowd. He'll welcome you to throw a pitch if you'd like! Of course, the opposing team isn't too keen on the idea. Better look for more imPorts to play ball!

[eddie is pretty baffled by the reception he gets. mostly because some people seem to derive the fact that he's an import just from him looking like some dumpy dick tracy impersonator, or to some people he's completely normal. doesn't really matter to him either. he has a job, and he's going to get it done.

the coffee shop lady doesn't seem to bug him much either way, hospitality is hospitality, and it's met with a smirk.]

Lady, the only drink I need right now is a stiff one.

[digging into his pockets, he pulls out a picture before she can walk away. it's of a missing heropa female, one you mighta seen on a few milk cartons recently.]

You see her recently?

[now this is more like it. eddie finds his place at the bar quite easily, and is quick to grab himself a cheap glass of what might as well be paint thinner. he's still "on the job", in only the most technical of terms, and watches the door cautiously.]

[down for anything really, pm me if you have questions]

[Perry was at the coffee shop and couldn't help but notice what appeared to be a newcomer asking about a missing person. Geez, either this guy was looking for someone from home or he's already trying to solve crimes. And judging by his appearance if it's the later this could be something he's really interested in.

Perry leans closer to try to get a good look at the picture to see if it's a missing person's case. Hey Eddie, hope you don't mind a teal platypus in a fedora standing on his chair trying to look over your shoulder. I'm sure in your world you get this every day.]

[dontworkfortoons]

[Eddie sort of gets the feeling that he's being screwed with and...huh. He cranes his neck just a tiny bit and...well, at least it ain't a rabbit in suspenders.]

You mind, bud? Kinda in the middle of something here.

[doesntdomuch]

[Perry huffs before scribbling down a note. Man why can no one take him seriously?]

You're looking for someone?

[dontworkfortoons]

[In the time it takes Perry to write it and Eddie to read it, the coffee shop lady vanishes, and Eddie groans.]

Yeah, but unless she's been hangin' out at the public aquarium, I don't think you'd know anything I want.

[doesntdomuch]

[Perry groans in return, then reaches into his hat and pulls out a badge. Seriously Eddie he can help you.]

[dontworkfortoons]

[his eyes narrow tbh, this looks like a friggin kids toy]

...I don't think "Spy" counts as an organization.

[doesntdomuch]

[Wow rude, Perry doesn't judge you for looking like you're cosplaying every detective ever.

Perry writes another note, glaring a little.]

I'm an Agent for OWCA.

I figured that they never put the organization name on our badges since having animals for agents isn't very common.
