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.

Sometimes I feel like the only reason you make me marathon things like Orphan Black is so I can understand when you make a reference from them.
[ but, he's not needling her more. ] Hey. [ so, they're not on the best of terms. but, it's getting to the both of them so he brings his hands to her shoulders and walks her back to the sofa, sitting them both down. ] Charm can be useful. I have scads of charm and look what I accomplish daily. [ really, is that the best you can do? ] And it's not like I'm the only one. If you want to help people, you'll find a way. You always do. With or without your charm.
[ he tried.
he could tell her his super power to cheer her up. but nope, not going there. ]
We're going to be fine. You're going to be fine. You're gonna save a ton of people. They'll be clamoring for -- what's your superhero name?
no subject
[ but then he finishes up by asking about her superhero name. that's so danny. half surprised, she cracks a smile and elbows him lightly. ] My superhero name? That's so lame. Did you actually pick one?
no subject
no subject
But I would like that very much. I doubt the kitchen's up to your standards, though.
no subject
I can work with any kitchen. [ except, right, this is a new apartment and -- why would they have food. or drinks. ] Or, we could go out.
no subject
[ mindy, you can't stay inside forever. ]

no subject
Since you're a white, upper middle class male of...decent physicality, [ rockin' bod and handsome face. ] people might mistake you for an Avenger and attack us.
no subject
Decent physicality? [ you've seen his body firsthand. naked, ontop of your body. he was your personal trainer. he even almost got a handjob out of you in the hospital! ... which has nothing to do with his body. (or does it have everything to do with this body? ] You think I could be mistaken for an Avenger? [ flattery eyes ]
no subject
[ is this crossing into awkward territory? maybe, but it's too ridiculous to matter all that much. ] Definitely not Thor, okay. [ don't get your hopes up, handsome jerk. ] Maybe that one dude who was only in the movie for five minutes. Hawkguy?

not the time to be thinking these things... ]
Well, she had, like, a thousand aliases. Who knows what's really in her head at any given time. She's always playing a part. It's her job.
no subject
unfortunately, neither of those options are on the table.
er, right. definitely time to move on. ]
That's really deep, Danny. [ she pats his shoulder again -- this time, more dismissively -- before heading for the door. ] But I'm hungry enough to risk a potential run in with Loki. [ kanyeshrug. ] Here's to hoping I can charm him into not killing us and setting me up with Thor.
no subject
You want the uncivilized guy who'll down a whole coffee, throw the mug on the ground and then yell for more? [ plus, all that hair. ] You wouldn't want -- Steve Rogers? [ Danny might be comparing himself to Steve Rogers ] A fine, upstanding patriot who's easy on the eyes? Who has manners?
no subject
He was very gentle with Natalie Portman.
[ a pause for deep thought. ] I would prefer Steve Rogers in a three-way with Tony Stark. I just think they'd really complement each other, y'know?
