TEST DRIVE MEME

[behind_the_box]

And here's the opening for our first Test Drive Meme! Pick from the following scenarios, or feel free to create your own setup!

1. The Future of the 80s
What is this, an episode of the Jetsons? Buildings are shaped like flying saucers, foods can be found in little nutrient pills of various flavors, and holograms have replaced most forms of entertainment-related technology. Be wary of any glowing beverages, and the Management apologizes if you find yourself with any cybernetic body parts. Sometimes the surgery records get mixed up.

2. Rotten apple
Someone ate something they shouldn't have. The world is such a strange place, it's hard to say what's safe and what isn't. But that fruit looked so good, you just couldn't resist, could you? Too bad nobody warned you that side-effects may include odd behavior, hallucinations, temporary physical changes, or queasiness.

3. Are you afraid of the dark?
It's well past your curfew, shouldn't you go home? Even the moon and stars are hiding at this hour. There's nothing out here but you and the luna moths hovering by the street lamps. So who said that? Did you see something move out of the corner of your eye? That's your friend you just bumped into, right? ...Right?

4. It's a dog's life
Or a duck's, or a snake's, or a bat's. Pandora is a safari and you are now a critter. Better hope you're high on the food chain or that your friends can ignore the urge to eat you. While this place is such a zoo, you can bet someone will be up to fowl play.

Waver Velvet | Fate/Zero (AU) | 4

[Who's an ugly duckling? Miss El-Melloi is an ugly duckling. An ugly, awkward duckling.]

This is absolutely ridiculous! Why a bird?!

[housedivided]

*... The hell is this and why is it giving a magical presence.*

Someone's failed transmutation experiment. *Only mortals show confusion. Lord and masters of the universe state facts.*

[shortafewcircuits]

[HI FATHER]

A photograph would last longer! Or are you so stupid that it takes you this long to process anything you look at?

[housedivided]

*...oh. really.*

... Waver-kun. Somehow, this does not surprise me. What a...sensation to see you among the still-functioning. I'm sure the origins of this prank have some meritorious details, as well the reasons why you are not yet alternated.

*Implying anything this dropout thieving failure could do would be worth any merit at all.*

||Why not a (really chatty) bird?||

[shortafewcircuits]

Because birds are tiny and skittish and I'm not either of these things!

[She is both of these things.]

[mindf_ck]

||What if you turned into one of those dapper (handsome) pigeons from that one dating sim?||

Nero/Saber | Fate/Extra | 2

[mostempressive]

[The Emperor has graciously accepted this offering from some fellow or other in the market, and she bites into it as she wanders the busy area for more such interesting treats and trinkets. She nearly drops it almost as soon as she's finished chewing.]

Ah! I did not expect it to tingle in such a manner. What a truly unusual sensation.

Re: Nero/Saber | Fate/Extra | 2

[pyoing]

Was it a good tingle or a great tingle~? ♥

[mostempressive]

It was an acceptable tingle. I simply cannot give it further praise without experiencing the sensation again, as it was quite unexpected and I was unable to properly judge.

[pyoing]

Then feel free to sample more of Mommy's wares!

Hello, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just curious if you get a lot of spam feedback? If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can recommend? I get so much lately it's driving me crazy so any assistance is very much appreciated.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm really loving the theme/design of your web site. Do you ever run into any browser compatibility problems? A couple of my blog audience have complained about my blog not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Safari. Do you have any advice to help fix this issue?

[(Anonymous)]

Hi! Someone in my Myspace group shared this site with us so I came to look it over. I'm definitely loving the information. I'm bookmarking and will be tweeting this to my followers! Wonderful blog and brilliant design and style.

*Wow. This architecture . . . all the weird-shaped flying cars buzzing by . . . it's all a little overwhelming!*

The Hell. This is just straight-up bonkers. Hah, reminds me of . . . uh . . . shit, actually doesn't really remind me of anything. This what the moon city looks like? Somehow I thought it'd be more . . . I dunno, pompous.

[allthetime]

I don't think we're on a moon actually.

[Hi I like your personal space can I keep it]

[sleepslikethedead]

*Um but that's mine!! But w/e it's all good*

Yeah, guess if we were we'd probably see the Earth, right? Still, though, it's crazy. You ever seen anything like this? Hah, and speakin' of "ever seeing anything like this," wow. I can usually tell pretty well when someone's gonna kick it, but looking at you is totally throwing me off. What's up there?

[allthetime]

I have! It's complicated though.

[Aradia puts a finger to her lips and makes a thoughtful noise.]

You could say I tried it and didn't like it very much.

[fateofyears]

It seems to be a city that is much more futuristic in its concept. There is no city in our world that is of this style that I know of.

[ Hi, 'Machi. Your boss is here. ]

SCREAM omg

[sleepslikethedead]

*H-HI BOSS*

Pretty crazy! So . . . if this isn't our world, how do you suppose we got here . . . ?

[fateofyears]

I cannot guess for you, but for my own experience, I can only presume that it had something to due with that... curious box.

Jubilee | Marvel Comics (OU) | 3

[sparkula]

[ Ooo, nighttime! How scary! Except not, because Jubilee is the actual thing that goes bump in the night, here!

Man, being a vampire is only cool as long as you forget you are one. Which... is pretty much never. Normal people are in bed at night, not creeping around in the dark and feeling like they're going to devour the first person who crosses their path! ]

[shortafewcircuits]

[Except for certain wayward mage girls who can't seem to stay where they're supposed to. Jubilee may go bump in the night, but does she bump into things that bump in the night?]

Ah! I'm sorry!

[sparkula]

[ Jubilee laughs, barring pointed teeth at the other gal. ]

Hey, it's totes cool! I wasn't really looking where I was going. You alright, chica?

[shortafewcircuits]

[Teeth, right. Waver stares at the other girl for a moment, then scratches her head.]

Well, I wasn't either. But I'm fine, thank you.
