now don't be rude


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.

Such a long time! [Margaery looked surprised for a moment, she had just turned away and she knew Sansa had been there, for her to be here such a long time was a strange matter.

But that's not the important thing at the moment, Margaery leaned forward as she took a small taste of her malt.]


Do you have a good life here, Sansa? I do hope you are able to be happy.

[ She smiles a bit at that, and gives a small nod. Even with the recent kidnapping taken into consideration, things had overall been much less stressful than what she had grown accustomed to ever since the day that she had arrived in King's Landing. ]

Yes, actually. I mean, it's still quite... strange, but there are many people here who seem to be genuinely kind.

[ She tries to think of subjects that are less likely to lead to depressing thoughts. ]

And there are so many types of food here!

Then I am happy for you! [Margaery said cheerfully but she knew it was better Sansa was here than in King's Landing at Joffrey's mercy. Even if she was married to Tyrion, it wasn't difficult to see how unhappy the girl was.

They will eventually have to discuss unpleasant matters but now isn't the time, she leans forward as Sansa talks, interested.]


What is your favorite? These, malts I believe? Are quite delicious! I was told this favor is strawberry though there were so many choices.

I hope that you come to enjoy it here as well.

[ Honestly, she's not quite sure how Margaery will feel about the entire situation once she has had time to let it all sink in. She has no doubt that there are many people here who will adore her, but it is not the same as being queen. Sansa was surprisingly relieved to learn that there is no such thing as royalty and nobility in this country, but she is unsure if Margaery will see it the same way. ]

I have not gotten around to trying all of them yet, but the raspberry one was quite good. There is another shop nearby that sells frozen lemon drinks that are wonderful.
