throws thumbtack confetti everywhere


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.

[ With how quickly he turns around, she's tempted to take a step back. The noise the metal makes makes her brows furrow lightly, because it doesn't sound all that great, even if it's for a split second. The fact that she's not really perplexed by his outfit is, well, because she's seen plenty of people in even more absurd outfits for different reasons. So while she isn't interested in his clothes all too much, its his face that draws attention.

She stands taller, perhaps to make up for her height, when he first looks at her. W-What's up with that kind of face?! She would look offended, herself, if not for the fact she makes it a point to act as such only in private. She still has a reputation, and more importantly, a name to uphold.. Even if she feels vaguely offended herself, and a little nervous at his scrutinizing.

After a few moments, she becomes embarrassed at his stare— even irritated. She looks fine, doesn't she? Even she knows that kind of stare isn't normal.. Then there's no real need to go to this extent! She nearly fumbles out a 'what' before he suddenly asks her his question, and she quiets her worrying. ]


Tohsaka Rin.

[ Betraying her thoughts, Rin looks completely natural even in a situation like this. She flips her hair off her shoulder before offering a handshake. Honestly, if he wants to waste time chit chatting, that's on him. ]

And you are?
