SHOW US WHATCHER MADE OF



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 there's only one rule in Test Drive Meme Club: 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, while others might not say anything -- but if you have something nasty to say, better not say anything at all, right?

    In one of the commercial areas, retailers are taking advantage of the mild weather to hold a sidewalk sale. New arrivals and long-settled imPorts alike will receive a small discount at most stores, and while a few locals give them envious looks, many are just interested in what they might buy. You could set a trend, hero!

    02. De Chima, Virginia, is a large city with a healthy economy, and though it's quieter than Heropa, there are still large numbers of citizens to be awed at your very presence. Look at you! Organic wonder! 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. The imPort craze remains high here, and you may find yourself cornered by overzealous imPort fans, media wannabes and opportunists alike, shoving cameras in your face.

    Their questions are likely to be fairly mundane, however; get ready for an interview about your taste in romantic partners, personal underwear choices, favorite foods, and more!

    03. Maurtia Falls, Pennsylvania has had its ups and downs since imPorts started reappearing. Several imPort heroes have put focused efforts into cleaning up the streets of this somewhat infamous city, while others have swooped in to help the criminal industry thrive. More so here than the streets of any other imPort city, the battle between good and evil looks more like a war of escalation than a heroic tale. That might make the less than warm welcome imPorts are given in the city a little more understandable. The emergence of locals with superpowers is hardly helping. While some of these individuals have turned to crime, many locals seem more inclined to defend their native powered drug dealer than help the non-native hero bring them to justice. Who are you to tell them how to live?

    There's still snow on the ground in Maurtia Falls, and some locals have decided to hold an impromptu snowman-sculpting contest. But...wait. That one looks familiar! Some of the snow people are definitely meant to be imPorts, but they aren't exactly flattering likenesses.

    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. To be American is to be part of a melting pot, and that there’s more money to be made by the thriving local industries hardly hurts.

    Go wander and get your shopping in, folks. Any imPort willing to be interviewed about how their hot Valentine's Day date went is instantly surrounded by a small gaggle of people.

Heropa
[ Perusing the sidewalk sales for something resembling a cape, Lando walks with a confidence that defies how out of place he looks. He goes from store to store looking at the goods for sale, never seeming to quite find exactly what he's looking for. Finally, before the last store on the street, he pauses, seeming to deliberate something with himself. That done, he enters the store, making a beeline to a certain rack where-- lo and behold!-- there hangs a powder blue cape. ]

Well! What are the odds?


any city, a gambling parlor
[ Obviously the best way to test out his new abilities is by cheating at games of chance and luck. The game parlors he's found don't have sabacc or pazaak tables, so Lando winds up at a penny slot machine. It easily becomes second nature to influence the outcome of the slots-- though Lando makes sure not to do it too much lest the management catch on. He takes his more-than-modest winnings with him at the end of the day to find a local bar, where he sidles up next to someone who's attractive and alone. ]

Buy you a drink? It's been my lucky day, I'd hate to break that streak.

[The eternal search for decent capery is a pain Count Dooku has become all too accustomed to during the year he has spent stranded on this primitive backwater known as 'Earth.' Ordinarily he simply has them custom-made for him by the most expensive tailors he can afford, but today- today there is a fine brown cape hanging from the same rack that has caught Lando's attention. He plucks it up, and feels its fabric between his fingers.]

Rather unlikely, in my experience. I suggest you have a care before you make a purchase, my friend. The quality of the materials here tends to be rather... questionable.

['Questionable' by the standards of the Count of Serenno, one of the wealthiest beings in the Galaxy, at least.]

[personal profile] entitles 2017-02-22 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Heropa]
[He takes one look at the items on sale and scoffs. That's about all there is to it. He is a verypicky consumer and only buys the finest products. Anything that can be displayed out in the open without at least a locked case is simply not good enough for him.

He gives a flourish of his overly-long cape and walks away as if he was personally insulted by the fact that anyone actually tried to sell him that stuff.]


If this is what esteemed guests are offered, I'd hate to see the usual wares.

[De Chima]
[Being royalty, Balem is somewhat used to getting bombarded with attention whenever he left his own property. But, that property was literally several planets and he usually had an army of dragon-people preventing anyone from getting too close, so having a camera stuck in his face was...new.

And unwanted.]


I do not partake in interviews without a scheduled appointment. My next opening is in seventy-five years and six months.

[...Well. Back on his world, anyways. Here he has a maddening amount of free time, but he doesn't want to spent it indulging 'fans'.

...Even if he is kind of flattered to have fans.]

[ Lando had been looking at a cape of his own, but after that comment he feels a bit soured. He places the hanger back on the rack and follows the guy out of the store. ]

Sounds like you know quality, my man. Mind telling me where you got that cape you're wearing? I'm in the market myself.

Lance | Voltron: Legendary Defender

[personal profile] lasersounds 2017-02-22 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
Heropa

[Shopping was, easily, a past-time for Lance. And who could say no to a sweet discount to boot? Being a hero could have perks, you had to admit. He wasn't even looking to buy anything, just taking the time to get to know the town, see the sights--and then he spots it.

What could only be one of the most classic of gaming systems.
]

Oh no way...

Nonah

[The sights, the sounds. Now this, this was a city. One you could get easily taken in by if you weren't careful.

And Lance? Lance was anything but careful. That might explain the sly grin on his face as he slides up to a gaggle of cute girls milling about a shop.

Hello, ladies~. [Let no man ever say that Lance was a particularly smooth or subtle charmer. Especially if that over exaggerated wink was anything to go by.]

[ Adachi paused with his mouth on the lip of his coffee cup, overhearing what could only be a young loser about to strike out in ways that no man ever should have to endure. Hell, he could even time it perfectly. The girls were turning around, and... five... four... three... two... ]

[ And right on time, the one girl scoffed, before wrapping her arm around her friend's arm and pulling her away. Adachi let out a rude sounding noise at that, nearly choking on his coffee as he snickered into the cup. ]

Blivette Sonicdriver | OC

[personal profile] magicandgunpowder 2017-02-22 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
»»02. DE CHIMA, VIRGINIA
[Blivette Sonicdriver, tiny gnomish inventor, is used to going ignored in the world of big folk. That's what she expected upon entering this new world yet she's found it to be the opposite, especially here. Somehow she manages to stand out despite barely reaching most people's kneecaps. Somehow she's found herself cornered and people asking her about her love life, of all things. She doesn't have one, she explains. Her work is too important to get bogged down by other people's emotions. They don't believe her, however, and continue to push. She's growing more and more uncomfortable as the questions keep coming but she can't find an opening to escape.

All she wanted to do was take a look at the inventions of this world, get some ideas, maybe build her own things. Instead she's stuck with this? Why must these people be so curious.

Eventually she's had enough, she raises her voice and hopes it'll be the end of it.] ENOUGH! I just want to shop in peace!

[It does little good. Some people look taken aback, they hush for a moment, but others continue.

Why didn't she think to prepare a sleep spell for the day?

Jeyne Westerling | A Song of Ice and Fire

[personal profile] goodandtrue 2017-02-22 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Maurtia Falls

[Jeyne was more than familiar with a hostile environment, having experienced it among Robb's men. But seeing the snowmen that the citizens of the city created was a different breed of hostility. She wandered through the rows of snow sculptures, looking over the unflattering and repugnant representations of the various imPorts in the city. Among them were faces she recognized.

It wasn't until she came across one of herself that a measure of her composure broke. The creation bore a simpering expression, an ill formed body and a head at her feet. Robb. She wasn't certain how they knew about her status as a widow, but somehow they used it to their advantage.

Stumbling away from the mean spirited activity, she struggled to regain her composure. All at once, she slammed into another figure, her body colliding and then falling into the snow. She could hear someone laughing behind her. The painful reminder of Robb and her humiliation were enough to explode inside her, triggering the power that she couldn't control or predict. A car driving past was suddenly knocked into the air and tossed against a nearby building. The area surrounding her suddenly pushed by a psychic wave.

She covered her face with her hands, still shaking as she tried to recover.]


I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.
badtouchingyourfood: (002)

[personal profile] badtouchingyourfood 2017-02-23 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ This girl doesn't smash into him. In fact, he had no trouble walking by until he stopped dead in his tracks watching a car lift itself and slam into a nearby building. Jack's Evil Minds Research Museum supposedly elevated serial killers to supervillains, yet here is a true display of power he'd label as "super".

The laughing cues him in to the girl, finally assessing her state as fragile. Confused. Useful. Pretty too, judging by her hair and what little her can see of her face. If only she were brunette with wind chafed skin he might allow himself to reminisce. Yet, there is some pull to still approach her, and he does, kneeling down enough to grasp one of her hands. His grip is fairly light and the pressure he uses to pull her hand away from her face is quite gentle. ]


Are you sorry or did you want to stop them from laughing? [ Shaken she might be but he doubts she lacks clarity. Besides, it is very important to know what and how she triggered whatever he just saw so it doesn't ripple out again with people in the area, namely him. ] There's no sense in sitting in the snow.

dolores abernathy / westworld (threads might have spoilers)

[personal profile] internal 2017-02-22 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
1. heropa.

[ They had only had one outfit for Dolores to wear, but she hadn't seemed to mind. It had been automatic to do up the small buttons at her bodice, adjust the brown belt. Comb out her long blond hair just like she did every morning, with hope in her heart. Now she walks out on the town in her forget-me-not blue dress, the blood stains a dried and ugly brown. She pays them no mind. ]

Oh, how pretty.

[ She's stopped at one of the market stalls to admire a dream-catcher in amongst some other hand-made trinkets. The eagle feathers remind her of home. She plucks idly at a string to see the whole web thrum, smiles gently at the shop owner. ]

I don't suppose you know where I could buy a gun?

[ What a trendsetter. ]


2. de chima.

[ Dolores has stopped very still on the sidewalk in front of a store window. It's a robotics store, selling everything from roombas to helpful Siri-like AI assistants to faddish attempted replica models of imPort droids. The display in the window, however, is a young dark-haired woman existing only from the torso up. She's advertised as the newest innovation in sales and hospitality, and her ball-jointed arms work a projected register interface as she rings up purchases as tells passers-by to have a nice day.

Dolores raises her palm to the glass and presses it there as though longing for something. It's almost a sweet picture, this melancholy blond woman so struck by the wonders of this new world.

A single hairline fracture appears in the glass, radiating out from her hand.
]


3. anywhere.

[ It was foolish of her, to try and carry so much on her own. She spent her stipend on so many interesting things: a bag of oranges, some new clothes, hair pins, a jug of milk, a filigree butterfly, a street-artist caricature drawing of herself, a candy apple, two tins of peaches, and a music player. But not a bag. So it probably isn't a surprise when she loses her grip on all her purchases and they go tumbling into the street, the milk splitting and splashing everywhere, the oranges rolling wildly across the sidewalk.

Won't someone be chivalrous and help a girl out? One of the tins has even rolled to a stop at your feet.
]

[personal profile] moneyplz 2017-02-22 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well this sucks. Here she was, already planning on building up her rep as Magicaloid 44, magical girl robot from the 22nd century (or something like that), $5 per picture cash upfront but there's already a pretty heavy robotic presence already. At least these robots were just crappy little cheap things, barely more advanced than the AI back home and barely humanoid to begin with. She's got a chance, at least.

Magicaloid exits the store at the same time that Dolores presses her palm against the window. She can't help but frown slightly, looking up at the blond woman...and the noticeable crack in the glass. Putting two and two together, she comes to the entirely wrong conclusion.
]

If you're going to steal something, try something smaller.

[ It's said in a very matter-of-fact tone: no judging, no questioning. There's a robotic filter to her voice, but Magicaloid's tone and phrasing is all too human. ]

[ Pidge is wandering the stalls, picking up any random item that catch her eye, poking it a bit, and putting it back. This place was so interesting! She's amicably chatting with each stall owner, questioning them on their wares, asking about the city and the inhabitants. This place was so interesting!!

She'd just said goodbye to the man she'd been talking to when she sees it. A laptop! Sure, it's significantly bigger than she's used to, but she's willing to bet the features are amazing. At least if her phone is anything to go by.

Quickly, she darts across the way and stops in front of it. Bouncing a bit on her feet. ]


Oh! Oh! Can I see that?


[Any city; outside a coffee shop]

[ Pidge had set up with her shiny new laptop outside a local coffee shop. She had the biggest coffee available, whatever passed for an internet connection here, and a driving need to learn about the world she'd found herself in. ]

[ luke walks through the sidewalk sale and declines the sample offer after sample offer. part of him can't believe what he's doing right now: strolling, as if there is no life or death situation sitting on his shoulders right now. and technically, it's true. there is no immediate danger that he can sense. but there's a lot of other things he can't sense that worries him: his sister, for starters. he always thought- well, that's for later.

this city - this world - it has that quality of oddly tense and calm at the same time. another familiarity that makes this world blend with all the other ones he's been to. hopefully, he's not here too long. ]


[ he picks up a forgotten shopping bag and calls out ahead of him. ] Hey, you forgot something!

[ maybe it's yours, maybe it's not! more importantly, what's in the box ]

DE CHIMA
[ coming here was probably a mistake. not that the force would have told him that coming here would mean that he would be confronted with people even more ravenous than holonet reports after endor. leia could have handled this much better, and luke... manages - he smiles and nods and recalls some of ben's answer to fill in the gaps.

answer a question with a question isn't exactly his style but he already said something about his choice of underwear once and he's not going to do it again. ]


Now why would you think it's red?

Maurtia Falls
[ he doesn't really know anyone else here but those statues definitely look like they're supposed to be mocking someone; outrageously large nose nearly topples the statue and that's just impractical. but the desert kid in him always looks fondly (and sometimes bewildered, if he's honest) at snow. ]

The head's too heavy. You're going to have pack more snow in. [ he remark is ignored by the sculptor. that's fine, he's patient enough to wait. ]

It's too heavy. [ he repeats to nearby sculptor. ]

[At this point, Han is an old hat at avoiding the paparazzi—really, look, he's even got that cute little hat that he's conveniently using to both shade his eyes from the sun and hide them from any fans that might be hanging around. De Chima is always a minefield, you never know if you're going to get clear or if you're going to get caught in an explosion of embarrassing questions.

He's almost clear when he sees Luke, surrounded by people, and hears Luke's answer. Now why would you think it's red?

Ohhh, no.]


Luke! [And here comes Han, heroically charging in and pushing through the crowd to save his buddy from having to answer even more embarrassing questions.] Luke, where've you been? I looked all over the place for you!

[Haha no he didn't, but he's got to get these guys off their backs somehow. He's not sure how the Force works, barely even believes in it himself, but he finds himself thinking play along play along play along very, very hard, as if that might help.]

Magnus Burnsides | The Adventure Zone

[personal profile] burlyboy 2017-02-22 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ a ; heropa ]

[ Magnus is having a wonderful time. He sticks out at the best of times (he's built like a brick shithouse, is in the possession of sideburns that are either glorious or eyesores depending on your perspective and has a habit of charging around like he owns any street he's currently on), but here, in this world, dressed the way he is? There's no chance that anyone can look at his distinctly medieval garb and the fact that he seems to think it's kosher to carry around an axe, shield and crossbow at all times and come to the conclusion that he's just a lost LARPer. He accepts all free gifts with enthusiasm, no matter what they happen to be, but even that seems to lose its shine eventually as he starts to take in some things that seem uniquely weird about this place.

If you're nearby, you may have him lean towards you and ask, a little sheepishly, ]
So is this place, like, all humans? Because this is starting to get kinda creepy.

[ Where are the elves? The orcs? The dwarves? The dragonborns? Sure, you get villages that are all one race or another, but this place seems way, way too big to be made up of only humans. It just makes him wonder if all of these nice folks are secretly extremely fantasy-racist. ]

[ b ; dogs, any city ]

[ Magnus is on a mission. He looks serious enough as he stomps down the street, holding a stone looped around his neck to his mouth, trying in vain to get it to work. This has been a fun enough diversion, but he needs to know what the hell is going on now, and where his friends are. He's starting to lose his patience with the amount of non-answers he's been getting, and it's not as though he's not doing important work back home. He's not sure where he's going, or who he's going to ask, just that he's going to keep determinedly moving forwards until he gets there.

And then he hears a bark, and his head whips around like a dog who just noticed a squirrel, and upon his face spreads an expression of unbridled glee as he sees something he's never before seen in his life: a dog park. ]


Oh my god.

[ It takes him two full strides to make his way over there at which point he just flops flat on his back, skidding against the grass and spreading his arms wide open as a few dogs launch themselves at him, overjoyed to see an available face to slobber on. ]

This is the best day of my life! Look at you! Look at you! Whossabunchagooddoggiesyouare.

[ This being the best day of his life can't possibly be true... but the beatific smile on his face tells a different story. ]

[ The galaxy was full of humans, this Lando knew. But any spaceport worth its salt is bound to have another few races thrown in. A Twi'lek, a Hutt. Something. So when the big warrior looking guy next to him remarks on it, Lando nods. ]

I was just thinking the same thing myself. Haven't seen another species since I got here.

Stannis Baratheon | that one canon about a sword chair

[personal profile] dadking 2017-02-22 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
((Taking him from the end of Season 4 and canon-updating him probably never tbh.))

Heropa

Nobody here seemed to recognize the man of Storm's End and Dragonstone, at least beyond the council members and the queer device through which they had pulled him. Which, he decided, suited him quite well. It meant no one around to notice or appreciate just how truly and thoroughly out of water he was. Nobody whom could make a mockery of just how bewildered he was behind that well-worn, stone face.

Still, perhaps a perceptive person could see just how much the man in the black tunic and sword was gritting his teeth, or how stubbornly he gripped the pommel of said sword in his belt, or how stiffly he walked, or the befuddled look in his eye as he studies the various market booths. It would be the best way to get the lay of the land, surveying the kind of devices, fashions and other trivialities that made up the everyday lives of the common folk.

Maurtia Falls

Well-educated by Maesters, Stannis knew some of the sciences, although what this realm had to offer was so developed and bizarre as to practically be sorcery. Still, he was not a man afraid of witchcraft, so he manages a journey through the porters with ease that surprises even himself.

Fascinating, in a way. Behind his tired expression, he begins to consider some of the strategic possibilities that could be offered by these portal-gates. It would certainly save time in moving troops, he thinks. He explores some of this settlement, feeling an odd familiarity to the wretched King's Landing - populations with tall towers and corruption were fundamentally similar no matter the world, it seems.

It takes him a moment to become aware of his immediate surroundings, but the grassy and wooded area with snow provides a sense of familarity. That's when he sees it, and sighs heavily.

He pinches his nose, breathing and grinding his teeth. When he removes his hand, it's still there. The likenesses are not perfect, likely sculpted by an unskilled child's hand. He would, perhaps should, feel a pang of worry thinking of children, of his daughter now undefended in the midst of a war while her father was trapped in a far-off realm.

"The snow does the shade of her hair justice, at least." he mutters to no one in particular.

Still, that is almost certainly a makeshift dragon of ice and a certain girl aside it. The scion of the former rulers of the Kingdoms. Meaning that he isn't the only one from his world stuck here, it seems.

Perhaps, he thinks hopelessly, this is all some terrible jape or a dream the Red Woman put in him as a warning.

[It was becoming less of a shock to see men from his world being pulled into this one. If the American army wanted to use imPorts against Russia, some of the best swordsmen were found in Westeros. Stannis, battle hardened and experienced, would be among those that Jon would choose as well.

He recognized the look of distaste on the man's face, knowing that it had been a similar expression on his face when he first arrived. Stannis had been kind to him before. Without hesitation, he approached the late king and bowed his head.]

Zatanna - Preboot DC/Vertigo

[personal profile] zee_zatara 2017-02-22 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Heropa]

Zatanna was no stranger to the idea of other realities, or even to visiting said realities and planes of existence on occasion. Or, more than occasionally when life was extra-stressful and called for more frequent trips to her therapist's office.

Getting pulled in to one in order to... essentially do more or less the same thing she did back home, but with more obligations and limitations, though, was not a thing she wanted to be used to.

Still, when situations were so far beyond one's control, one simply had to cope. And shopping was probably a healthier coping mechanism than any of her other go-tos.

Maybe she'd get lucky and find out someone in this world had invented run-proof fishnets.

Nearby the market square is a cozy pub with a vaguely Irish motif, but they keep enough decent brew on tap that John can hold his nose and pretend he's back home.

It so happens that the hovel is engaged in their weekly game of "who can toss John the farthest out the front door". The popularity of seeing the limey land on his bony arse has grown popular enough that instead of banning him from the joint, they've made a game of it with the other patrons. Since this evening is a football (the boring American version) match, the betters on the winning team get the honours of hoisting him out the threshold.

There's a crumpled tangle of limbs beneath the heap of trenchcoat on the sidewalk just then, forming a roughly person-shaped garbage heap in the middle of the throughway for shoppers. A head sticks out from the pile, smirking at the bar's open doorway and looking unconcerned with the gawking of passers-by,

"Cheers, boys. Same time next week?"

Nonah.
Stop.

( There stands a woman, only a little above average in height, robed in black and dark green, the quiet slink of chainmail only barely audible, and barely visible beneath the cloth and hood of her robes. Her voice is certain and steady, in the manner that a rocks are certain in the path of oncoming ships in a storm, or that a keep's walls are steady against weak, clawing hands. So much about them could change and rage, to no avail; aye, in time so too might they change, but it would be no quick change, nor easy. Time was relentless in a way that living flesh and sleeping stone could not hope to be.

Her hand does not move near her sword, but she stands before the person, head tilted very slightly to the side. )
I would see what you have taken restored to its rightful owner. I've no doubt they will have want of it, trinket as it may be. You've no right to it, unless the rules of this marketplace be so entirely opposite to those of mine own home.

( pickpockets or pickpocket victims welcome, ayyy )


Heropa.
A

( She had been up to her thighs and at times up to her waist in the ocean, standing in training garments a little different from her usual garb, a collection of things from this world adapted to be closer to what she knows from home. Her arms are wrapped with cloth that binds something to her forearms - stone, for those with some awareness of such things - and her back and abdomen are exposed by the bindings and wrapping that support her chest but leave her free to move otherwise. In the water she goes through drill after endless dress, from early in the morning.

Occasionally there is a burst of fire, or a treacherous spike of stone that seems to burst up suddenly through the water beside her, and she wields a large sword of some material that is hard to place, a metal so dark that it seems almost to absorb the light. )


B.
( When finally she wades from the water, it becomes easier to see tattoos mapping down the backs of her arms to her wrists, down either side of her spine. The trousers she wears are dark, heavy with seawater, and her shins covered by wrappings similar to the ones around her forearms. Sand sticks to her bare feet and the wet legs of her trousers, as she stoops down to snatch up her water skin. Her lips are pale, look dry from seawater, but she glances across and holds the skin out towards the stranger. ) Have you some need of this? The sun does itself proud this day, burning so thoroughly as this. I would 'most suspect it had something to prove.

( Her voice is very quiet, even - dispassionate might best suit it, though there is a focused curiosity in her gaze. )

[ Magnus hasn't been here for very long, but seeing as this is his new home for at least the next day (he hasn't lost confidence that he'll find his way out of here sooner rather than later), he's taken it upon himself to explore. They really haven't had the chance to just wander before, always rushing along to chase after this or that, and it's been some time since he's seen a natural source of water with his own eyes. Now's as good a time as ever, which means he winds up wandering over to the beach in his armour; it's little more than a breastplate and shoulderplates with good, sturdy boots that are just short enough to get sand in them, but it's still not exactly beach wear. Neither is the full arsenal he's carrying on his back (axe, crossbow, shield, check, check and check), but like hell he's leaving those behind.

He's a little clumsy, a little awkward as he trudges across the sand, moving like someone who hasn't stepped on a shore in a very, very long time, but his gait becomes surer and certainly more quick once he sees someone actually in the water. She's then interrupted by a voice that can only be described as booming. ]
Hail and well met! So, I'm just gonna come out and say it. That sword? Coolest thing I've seen all day. Except maybe the floating wagons, those are pre-tty neat.

And hey, she's expedited a lot of magic and also a few bar brawls, so that's saying something. It takes time for her brain to settle back out and comprehend all of this again, but it's helped by the fact that she's only been gone as long as the few weeks she spend back home. They tell her it doesn't often happen that way, and she's lucky.

"Lucky". Sure, she literally just got shot and lost part of her house in an arson, but she's lucky.

She gets crowded by admirers within record time once she gets into the city, fields countless questions about her sling and what happened to her while she was gone, what the future of her show is now. Is it bad that this is almost worse than the hospital?]


De Chima
[Sookie's relieved to find her house still intact, her house key set under a tacky little garden gnome out front. Once she bathes and puts on some fresh, unsmoky clothes, she heads on down to Merlotte's for...well. Not her shift. Sam would never let her just start working right away, the way he worries like a mother hen.

Instead, she decides that when she gets there, she sidles on up to the bar and waits for someone to give her the biggest diet coke any woman has ever had in her life. She needs it.]

UMA WITNESS (NETWORK)

Hello. My name is Ricardo Valenciano Libre. But most people me Chico. I'm the host of the definitive source for the supernatural and other monster sightings: UMA Witness!

Well, I just finished my fifth episode and I'm looking for some new material. Really good scoops, you know? So I want to ask, are there any urban legends around your city that need my help tracking down? I'm sure you do! There are a ton of strange things still undiscovered! So please submit any tips to UMA Witness in Nonah.



A CAFE IN HEROPA

[ Chico has a table to himself with a few printed articles and a thick book of UMA sightings that he's avidly flipping through. It's fairly worn through with notes in Spanish written all over the blurry pictures of so-called "evidence". Currently, he's looking over a map of the Rocky Mountains and the forests surrounding at, dropping pinpoints as to where the legendary Big Foot has been sighted by witnesses.

Even if his company doesn't have the funds to fly them all out to Colorado, Chico is going to find a way there. He'll trek all by himself if he has to! He's not going to let a little thing like "budget" stand in the way of the find of the century! ]

Hannibal Lecter | Hannibal

[personal profile] badtouchingyourfood 2017-02-23 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
( option a: de chima )
The strangeness of De Chima is supplanted by mild curiosity over a very, very common factor Hannibal can't quite wrap his head around in a weird version of a world he already knows; hero worship. It is entertaining, if not incredibly invasive at times, for reporters to ask just any imPort questions, carve into their mundane private lives and move right on to the next person. In fact, he sees a mass of red hair that distinctively reminds him of Freddie Lounds from his spot at a local cafe with an outdoor seated area. It is a good spot for people watching, as it were, and passing the time trying to learn the area.

But do these reporters have the same subjects to comment on that Freddie does? He might be tempted to test the waters later, with more resources.

It is as if the America he remembers evolved within its own sphere of influence, and shaped another world built on its station and power. Is the FBI academy still where it is supposed to be? How about his private practice?

But there is someone looking to avoid the attention and their very obvious avoidance is cause for amusement. "You are perfectly welcome to escape their questions if you don't mind joining me for a coffee."

Hannibal raises his cup to sip from, afterward a practiced smile. "My treat. I insist."

( option b: heropa )
The outdoor market has a massive amount of goods for cheaper prices than the inflated ones on the earth he remembers. He left the Virginia the day prior. How can a casual chef avoid a good farmer's market with fresh meat?

While Hannibal has never been the most social, at least not outside of what is appropriate to maintain appearances at times, he finds himself relaxed. There is no investigation to string along at the FBI's expense, nor the expectation of patients he would much rather not see dwelling in his office. None of the gawkers of imPorts here leave the same bad taste in his mouth as Mason Verger. Perhaps he can use this interlude to his advantage.

"Don't take those," He interjects, displacing fruit from someone's hand with something fresh. How can they not tell? Can't they smell it was already starting to rot? "I'll tell you a secret. The best produce is in the back," His chuckle is as warm as anyone would expect, and friendly too.

"Care for a shopping partner? There is no sense in spending a decent day alone."

( ooc: option B can go two ways; your character can nerd about food with hannibal OR hannibal is preying on them to make them into a dish. |D i figure this could be fun since it's a one-off tdm thread. Just specify which in the subject line! )

OPTION A

[personal profile] wordaday 2017-02-24 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Sookie doesn't understand the people that just soak up all this attention like they do and try to go back for more. Having cameras after her for at least 18 hours a day was a nightmare come true in the first place, but she thinks the paparazzi might be even worse than the TV crew. At least with the latter she's developed a weird sort of friendship. The paps are just damn vultures.

This is unfortunately the closest coffee place near to her house, and like an idiot she slept in too long to leave herself room to make coffee. For a few minutes she sits at her own little table desperately trying to ignore the two women yammering in her ear about triumphant returns and what exactly happened to her to get that sling, but it's wearing on her mental walls a little too much. She's about to turn and stomp back out to her car when a real nicely dressed looking man catches her attention and makes her an offer she can't refuse at all. A quick check of his mind reveals no ill will—or much of anything, really; he's exceptionally hard to read—so she takes the offer gratefully.

"Oh, Lord, I can't thank you enough," she sighs, settling into the chair across from him. The reporters hover awkwardly, seemingly at a loss. Sookie just gives them a tight little smile, then holds a menu up between them and her. "They've been all up on me for days. It's awful."

Kenzi | Lost Girl

[personal profile] heartstings 2017-02-24 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
»»01. HEROPA
[It feels as if some things simply don't change. Heropa seems to be the same as she left it, years ago as she finds out. A painful thought if she lets herself focus on it. People she knew are gone, barely anyone is left that might recognize her (at least that's what a quick glance at the network tells her).

So rather than focus on all that she goes about getting as much free food and drink as she can possibly carry while she looks around a the stalls set up.
]

»»02. NONAH, NORTH CAROLINA
[Kenzi long since figured out how to hide in plain sight and avoid unwanted questions. But sometimes it was fun to get those few moments of fame. She lets herself be stopped for an interview but doesn't expect a question about Valentine's Day.]

What?! You mean I missed out on that sort of fun? [This gets a little laugh out of the interviewer but also cuts the whole thing short. Bummer.]

»» NETWORK
[The video starts off with a crudely drawn image of a little green and pink dragon. At least one can assume it's a dragon, it looks small and almost cat-like.]

HEROPA

    [ raven reyes may posture as arkadia's most invaluable zero-g mechanic, but never has she expected such fanfare before. when she decides to let her nosiness get the better of her, she's out in the city of heropa, trying her best not to buy everything that's offered to her. growing up with nothing has left her both wanting and suspicious of what's being offered to her. ]

    [ despite being overwhelmed, raven's taken by a pretty pair of boots sitting on a table. her eyes may sweep over everything else on offer, but her hands fiddle with those. ]
    I don't think it'll go with my brace.

    [ she tries for good humour, but her smile isn't as bright as it should be for a joke. on her left leg is a metal contraption that sits at the base of her ankle and climbs to rest beneath her knee. ]


MAURTIA FALLS

    [ raven doesn't partake in any snow-sculpting. instead, she walks around timidly, as if afraid to place her snow boots on the soft, cold and white earth beneath her. she peers down at the ground in awe, pressing the tip of her boot on her right foot down tentatively. ]

    [ for a girl who has never experienced snow, she's not too sure what to do. though she sees people building poor replicas of what's supposed to be people with the stuff, she's too busy being taken by it. she's only ever heard stories of snow. it's cold and it's thick, and it's supposed to have a mean, deathly-like bite to it. but raven finds she isn't afraid of it today. ]

De Chima

[ Sakhmet ignores the questions as she leisurely strolls by, despite the fact that people are starting to gather. She just looks the other way, huffs in a dignified way and pushes on. She's trying really hard to be "civic" and "civilized" because this place doesn't afford her the same level of comfort her own world does. There's also the fact she really has no interest whatsoever in the people gathering around her. She wouldn't fuck any of them.

But then one man with a recorder makes the mistake of placing a hand on her shoulder in an attempt to stop her, or at least slow her down. That hand is quickly twisted out of the way, breaking the wrist and probably the forearm, Sakhmet isn't sure and honestly doesn't care.

This seems to agitate the people around her for some reason she can't fathom, but Sakhmet runs into a wall of somewhat bewildered people demanding explanations. Yawning, she turns to look at the man kneeling on the floor, holding the twisted slab of meat that was his arm. She licks her lips.

Clearly that was the wrong reaction as the circle around her tightens. Sakhmet smiles though, fingers flexing as she flares her fangs at the crowd.
]

Come on then, I love early dinner.

Literally anywhere big enough for her to fit

[ Sakhmet lies on the ground, a couple dozen of bottles of at least three kinds of booze lying around her in disarray, as well as a bunch of cats. She's clashing horribly with her surroundings, but cats give no fucks and neither does Sakhmet. She still has a few bottles though and is currently chugging one from a half lying, half crouching position.

Yeah that's... that's it. Big cat getting drunk on the sidewalk.

Edward Nashton | DC Comics

[personal profile] fixthegame 2017-02-25 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
a.) De Chima
There was a point in time when the man called Quizmaster would have adored this attention. Wasn't this what he fought for? Recognition for his efforts? Validation that what he did had meaning, was appreciated? Really, anything other than getting abuse hurled at him by the populace, usually in the form of verbal harassment but also sometimes as literal garbage being thrown his way?

Well, sure, he mainly fought for freedom from oppression and the general betterment of society, but he'd never claim that not returning home with shoes soaked through with rotten something wouldn't be a solid step up.

But the moniker "Quizmaster" was years left behind, and the hollow glory of those days had lost its appeal. Besides, Edward wasn't so naive to think these people actually cared the least bit about him or his alleged heroics. He'd not even been in this universe long enough to have done much of anything, let alone create a reputation for himself (and if he had his way, he'd be gone again before he ever got the chance). And, really. They wanted to know his favorite color? Would they have liked to hazard a guess?

Edward soon got the impression they just obsessed over things for the sake of it.

Man, how exhausting must that be?

Once the initial novelty had run its course, and the inanity of the questions simply became too draining, Edward made it policy to avoid these inquisitive mobs at all cost. This eventually caused him to hurry around some random street corner one day, his attention focused totally behind him--that ol' classic setup for running into, well, just about anybody.

b.) Maurtia Falls
[If anyone is hanging around the snowman-building contest, a stranger may slide up to them and sardonically ask:]

Do you think they're judging by the quality of the snowman or by how insulting the depiction is? Because I gotta say, I saw a pile of muddy slush earlier which I'm fairly certain was meant to be me, and while it does sting a little, I kinda hope it'll win.

How about you? Find yours?

c.) Any city, at night.
[Edward is sitting rather precariously close to the edge on the roof of some tall building, looking over the city. He's been up here since sunset, just looking around. Watching. So far, he's spotted a handful of jaywalkers and a guy who threw away his recyclable can in the regular trash.]

[It's some real heavy stuff, the level of anarchy this world has to deal with. It's completely understandable why they brought in the ImPorts. They need all the help they can get.]


[He mutters.] Yeah, yeah. Might be hypocritical of me to complain, but at least when Luthor got help, he asked first.

Running and dashing around corners was always a hazard, especially when other people people were paying even less attention, the fact that they were in a ballcap and sunglasses that should have probably been left in the 90's said enough about their own ability to be incognito. The even took a few steps back, before -- yep, they fell flat on their ass.

Food went flying -- was that takeout? -- and his drink spilled on the ground behind him. Glasses skittered to the concrete, and it was after only a moment that he actually looked up, before the man's eyes went wide -- and as white as a sheet.

Sorry, Edward. This guy recognizes you.

"What the fuck!?" he asked, from the ground, eyes wide while his hand started to fumble for his things, before one dipped into the remnants of his soda.

Eretria | The Shannara Chronicles

[personal profile] landrover 2017-02-26 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
1. Heropa

[To say that Eretria is blown away would be a major understatement.

She's trying to be all cynical and distrustful, she really is, but... my god. LOOK at this place. These buildings and vehicles and other machines are amazing (and slightly terrifying). And all these humans. Is this what her world was once like, long, long ago?]


How big is this place? How many humans live here?

[The question is vaguely aimed at a shopkeeper whose clothes she is currently browsing (which are all much more clean, whole, and era-appropriate than hers), but could easily be misjudged. Eretria is pretty distracted by all the everything.]



3. Maurtia Falls

[In fact, it's all maybe a bit TOO much eventually.

She's weirdly kind of happy to find a place where the enthusiasm of the crowds is intercut with distrustful looks and people who are happy to avoid her, so she can find a quiet place to catch her breath and just observe for a while. Even if the things she's seeing continue to be a bit mad by her world's standards.

At least kids playing in the snow is still the same as it ever was, despite how rarely Eretria has actually seen them do it. Warm moments like that weren't exactly... abundant in her childhood.]

01. heropa
[ There has been literally nothing in Adric's collection of life experiences that could adequately prepare him for the new experiences he's just had. He understands the information that he's given, of course, written or otherwise, and he supposes it all makes sense in some odd way or another. These people are... looking for help? Probably. That's his understanding. Planets don't often need heroes for no particular reason.

But between that and being turned out into a vaguely 50s-ish Florida town, it's a lot to process. He was a bit busy with being two seconds from crashing into a planet and dying, pre-Porter. Now he's, uh. Somewhere called Heropa, holding a free soda. It takes Adric a good ten minutes to walk off the shell-shock, at which point he commits himself to growing more and more agitated.

No one here can answer any of the questions he has that are actually important. He has three friends who may or may not have been murdered by Cybermen, nowhere in the area at all as far as he can tell. He has the only logical answer to an elaborate system of mathematical codes that he never got to test out. He has no fancy star-shaped badge to let everyone around him know that he's smart, and that is so criminal.

Catch a kid in weird pajama-looking clothes ducking through stalls and crowded areas. He's doing a fair amount of sharp, curious looking around. For a while, Adric goes from person to person asking after specific people-- called the Doctor, Nyssa, and Tegan. When that road leads nowhere, he probably somehow finds a way to insert himself into any nearby math-related things. Did you know that cashier gave you too much change back after your purchase?

You do now. No one escapes the all-seeing mathematical eye. ]

[ Alternatively, hit Adric with that technological city, bro. Being stuck here is about as unforgivable a situation as one can be saddled with, but any place known for being particularly advanced has to be worth seeing. And in many ways, it is.

Adric is here to look at anything that even remotely looks cool and highly advanced (for this society). He probably comes at salesmen and vendors with a dozen questions about functionality and speed and storage, all that jazz. When he can manage it, anyway.

It's the people wanting to converse with him that are the real problem. Adric doesn't inherently have anything against conversation as a rule, technically. He's just never been terribly good at it. Getting across what he wants to get across without insulting someone or coming across as immature or generally being dismissive is a challenge even on his best days.

These days haven't quite been his best. He's tired of things being shoved in his face, and he's tired of rolling his eyes every time someone butts in on his window shopping to ask an inane question. Plus he's still getting used to the lingo in these parts, so there's almost always something in there that he doesn't understand entirely.

There he goes... trying to duck under that camera. His expression says he's 85% likely to try to trip one of these people when he's finally free. ]


Oh, honestly. [ It's like trying to deal with children. ] You know, I've much more important things to be getting on with than having preferences at the moment. Look, I'm certain you'll find a much more interesting imPort over there. I've seen them for myself!

[ He points, insistently, and refuses to stop pointing until people start actually turning to look. It's all about confidence and mob mentality. ]

Yes, that's right, that one there--

[ Was he pointing at an actual imPort and trying to sic reporters on them? Was he pointing at a weird-looking hat stand? Could be either. It doesn't make much difference to Adric if he ruins someone else's day or not, because once those pushy people start turning, he books it in the other direction. ]

[ It's at some point that somebody answers "oh, the Doctor? Yeah, I know that guy. He owns a shop, it's actually nearby, just the next street over." Said shop is a watch shop, Time After Time Watch and Clock Repair. And thankfully for everybody, the Doctor's actually at the watch shop...though like he'd just be sitting behind the desk doing something boring like retail work, no, forget that, nobody's here right now so he's going to have a little bit of fun, enjoy the nice weather, and practice some guitar.

The Doctor's stretched out in a folding chair, feet propped up on a nearby fire hydrant as tunes his guitar, looking far too relaxed about everything. A pair of non-sonic sunglasses sit over his eyes as he plays a Rolling Stones riff. And then he spots Adric. The guitar trails off for a moment because ah. There's a familiar face. A familiar face that he honestly was never expecting to see again but a little part of him leaps for joy now that he's seen Adric.

It's to be expected, after all. The Porter can pull people here from any point in their timeline, possibly and probably even the moment before their death. And oh, he could kiss that machine, that beautiful awful wonderful Porter. First she gives him back Clara, now it seems she's given him back Adric. If prompted, the Doctor'll still say that he doesn't like it here but as shown by that small little smile on his face? He doesn't hate it entirely. The small smile spreads into a wide grin as he looks over Adric...and then the Doctor decides eh, a little teasing won't kill 'em, let's not tell Adric he's the Doctor just yet. Mathematical Excellence'll probably figure it out on his own in due course.
]

Let me guess: you're a new imPort?

[ says Captain Scottish who also is obviously not from around here. ]

[personal profile] hayabusakun 2017-02-28 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Note: Yuuki has two personalities. Her normal happy self and her alternate ego self which is an evil trickster.

1) (Normal Yuuki) - Heropa
[There's a girl, wandering around the city with a plush toy rocket attached to her head. She's enjoying exploring the new town and just talking to anybody who comes up to her about space and her dreams of going out there one day. She's bubbly and would love anybody company. She can be found wandering the local small shops, buying a drink and just looking for new friends.]

2) (Alternate Yuuki) - De Chima
[Half stifled laughter can be heard as the girl can be found next to a building with a few cans of paint and a large paintbrush. She's painting a large picture of a rocket on a dark blue background dotted with stars. There isn't a care in the world as to who would be taking her picture as her main goal is to spread the love of space to everybody that may walk past. Although, the laughter is rather ominous and she's a little bit exciteable and all over the place. If you don't wish to talk to her but follow her to guage her motives, you'll notice that she's just going to go from building to building for a while, drawing the same rocket image.]

Heropa. 1/3

[personal profile] dachizone 2017-02-28 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Living in Heropa already, Gentarou was beginning to get used to the people that lived in town and started to get to know them really quickly. Sure, he would go out to the other cities with the porters but, this was his turf! And he was going to befriend everyone here first. He was just out and about saying hi to people and picking up a casual conversations while going through town when he passed by the rocket plush hat.]

Ah, hey Yuuki.

[And he kept walking]

[ Any City ]


[ A young woman leaves a small corner store. She's wearing a very old-fashion looking blue dress, and her blonde hair falls around her shoulders in gentle curls. In her arms is a canvas bag full of assorted foodstuffs.

A can of condensed milk tumbles off the top of the bag and rolls a little ways across the asphalt, coming to rest against a pair of feet. She looks from the feet up to the face of whoever it is, and gives them a gentle, pleasant smile.

[ Well, Chico was looking at everything but the woman in front of him, but now he's all eyes on her. She's really cute with pretty blond hair. Her eyes are pretty, too, especially since they are all for him. Huh. He can't help but stare back with a soft grin of his own—Oh dios mío, the can! Chico, you idiota. ]

Are you alright carrying all those groceries, miss?

[ Chico recovers as best he can from that awkward staring contest and picks up the can at his feet for her. ]

[De Chima]

[The mountains seemed to call to her, drawing her away from the loud (and frightening) city. It was a return to the familiar, even if unpleasant, world that she had left behind. Despite her long skirts, Alice climbed along the side, keeping herself steady with her arms stretched out. Without fear, she ascended to a high region, overlooking the beautiful forest below her. There were other hikers, people with a similar need for the quiet and tranquility the mountains provided.

She thought nothing of them, staring ahead across the landscape. Her skirts were tucked under her, dusty and tattered, the same gown she had trekked in before her arrival.

It didn't matter. When she returned to the rooms she was given, she'd think more about the world she had been brought to. For now, she wanted to only see how beautiful this place was.]
catchallthecats: (cut me loose)

[personal profile] catchallthecats 2017-03-01 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Arya didn't much care for the city at large. Too many people, too much attention drawn wherever she went. She could probably go unnoticed if she decided to leave Nymeria back home but after so long without her loyal companion? There was no way she was going anywhere without her.

So, she'd retreated to the forests and mountains, picking her way along the trails as the direwolf ranged slightly ahead. If not for Nymeria's attention being drawn a bit higher than she was, she might have overlooked the stranger entirely. She almost did, but from the way the young woman was dressed, Arya could only guess that she was new to this world and it's oddities as well. It cost nothing to be kind to someone in that situation.]


It's a big change, isn't it? [Better than asking the question that Arya was sure she'd be getting plenty. 'are you new here?']
