TEST DRIVE MEME: The First (Fixed Setting)

TEST DRIVE MEME
HOW TO: Post with your character in what will be a fixed setting for the first round! Do a top level, respond to others! If your thread is substantial, it can be used as a first-person on your application! Remember that this is not game canon, and everyone is welcome!

You were just ushered into a large park by a murder of loud and insistent crows who somehow manage to get the gate shut behind you before they fly off. The park is awfully green for such a dead-looking town. It's dusk, and things are starting to get a little noisy at the edge of the tall iron fence that surrounds the area. There are gazebos, cobblestone pathways, gentle slopes, and of course, the lake and the island with the large, dead tree. It's full of crows, and if you stare at them, they'll all stare back. Feel free to take a load off on one of the many iron and wood benches, but the gates to the city are closed!

This does not, however, mean you are barred from ghost-watching as night progresses. Remember, they won't see you!

[Nah, Grif's going to pay all the attention to giant silver robot. Not because giant robots are interesting, because they're not, but because he's really got nothing better to do]

Yeah man, you shoo those birds. Show them who's boss.

[stabbywheelfeet]

[He all but whirls, staring accusingly at the speaker. His head draws back.]

Who are you?

[totallystoppable]

[flinches back a bit, but hey, no guns are being pointed at him, and that's all that matters]

Who do I look like, I'm your fairy godmother. I'm here to grant you three wishes and send you off to the ball to marry the prince. I hope you like petticoats, because with your figure, you're gonna need 'em.

[stabbywheelfeet]

[His head tilts one way, then the other, regarding the human.]

[What was he even talking about.]

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

[totallystoppable]

[Honestly? He's mostly just running his mouth]

Well, that's too bad because you've only got until midnight to kiss the prince and seal the deal, and it's gonna take a lot of time to get you into that ballgown. [he narrows his eyes, stroking his chin thoughtfully] I'd say you're about a size ten... Which is a shame because the only dresses I have on hand are a size 5 and a size 8, so you're going to have to suck in that gut.

[stabbywheelfeet]

If you're just babbling, then there's no reason for me to keep talking to you.

I have a war to get back to.

[totallystoppable]

[snort] Yeah, well so do I, but I don't see that happening any time soon. For one, this does NOT look like the middle of a jungle, which was where I happened to be before those weirdass crows showed up. So if you've got a way out of here, I sure would like to know it.

[stabbywheelfeet]

I don't have one yet. Because I've just started working.

So run along. Let me think.
