TEST DRIVE MEME

Starting now, we'll put up a new one of these very month! Feel free to use the current setting of Pandora (Christmas in July) or make up your own! You can also use the following scenarios if you'd prefer:
1. Mushroom Kingdom
Have you ever wanted to be a fairy? Well now you are, even if the answer was no! The City is a big, big place, all of a sudden. Houses are roomy affairs inside giant mushrooms, there are colorful flowers everywhere you look, and the animals are always friendly! Unfortunately, the only food items being sold in the market this month are fruit, fruit, and.... more fruit.
2. School Town
You may be too old to attend the academy, but that doesn't seem to matter; your attendance is mandatory anyway. Or perhaps you're there to teach, because you're the only resident of Pandora that possesses a certain skill. It doesn't matter if it can't be learned; you have to come up with a lesson plan anyway. At least the uniforms aren't some god awful color, right?
3. Zombie Apocalypse.
There's no coming back from death in Pandora, so you'd better do all you can to survive. Three quarters of the city are already infected, and this is the last stand. Are you going to pool your resources and try to make it together, or is it time to stop trusting others and go it alone until the month is over?

[The sudden reaction had been surprising, but the reasoning behind it less so. Yes, that definitely sounded like the Diarmuid he'd known. Of course logically Waver realized now they weren't the same, but...well, it was an odd gray area.]
[Features sharpened and hardened by a decade of hard work and harder circumstances softened considerably as Waver spoke next, hold on Diarmuid's shoulders turning a little more secure.]
...you've had a terribly rough time, haven't you? I'm sorry--I wish you hadn't been stuck with such a difficult Master.

It's not your fault. I should have realized it would come to what it did. He never trusted me. I wasn't what he wanted anyway. I was just a second rate replacement...
I hoped, though. I really hoped there might be a way I could prove to him I would bring him victory in the end if he would just trust me--if he would just let me fight the way I knew how to fight.
I was a fool... I shouldn't have been surprised that he chose his life over my own when things became rough.

The best of magical aristocracy are stupid, self-absorbed and cowardly at worst. It's no failing of yours that caused him to be an idiot.

[He sighs.]
I wish it had not played out so close to what happened the first time I was betrayed. Even more, I wish it had not happened in front of her. She should not have had to bear witness to that.
