lostplayers | Test Drive Meme

Comment here with your characters that you're thinking of bringing into LR, and tag around with other people to see how suitable they'd be for the game!

As a note, these threads may be used for application samples, which are opening August 11th. So get your samples ready ahead of time with this meme! However, even if all participants are accepted with those characters, these threads will not be game canon.

This meme is taking place in the setting of Darstone, so while you may leave your comment blank, I'd like to recommend you set up a scene or two in your initial comment. Some suggested settings are provided below, but make up whatever you'd like based off the setting pages!

⑴ Marketplace. There's a lot to do in the market-- not just buying goods and window shopping, but sitting down for a cup of coffee at an outdoor table, or getting a drink at a bar.

⑵ Housing. You've just gotten here and finally made it to your assigned apartment, but it turns out you have roommates, and they're one of them.

⑶ Adventuring. Whether out into the surrounding caves or taking a boat onto the lake, you're adventuring, maybe on a quest. Whoever's with you might be a member of your party-- or they might be trying to beat you to the reward.

⑷ Snow. What's snow doing in a cave? Isn't this weird? Well, Darstone is situated under a frosty mountain peak, and from time to time the local mages like to simulate the weather that's going on up above. That means there's some very light, fluffy snow falling from the cave ceiling right now.

[That just makes her chuckle again, her own arms going around his chest to reciprocate the squeeze.]

You make it sound like you run off all the time! When we all know I'm the one who does that. But have you seen this place, Signless? It's amazing!

I do my fair share of curious explorations, thank you!

-=he pulls her into a proper hug, leaning their heads together so the base of their horns touch=-

It's so peaceful here, Di...

Only until you remember that Rosa will be disappointed if you wander too far.

[She can't help but tease him, he knows very well that she loves Dolorosa as much as if she were her own lusus too. She holds him, enjoying his warmth - he's warmer than any other troll in existence, she's quite sure - savouring the quiet moment of affection. As his word continued to spread the more people seemed to need him and the less time the two of them had for moments like these together. It was necessary, she knew, but it didn't make it any less difficult.]

It is, it really it. Whatever else can be said about this place, at least there's no fear in the air.

-=he's quiet for a long moment, holding her tight as his heart swells in that painful way it does when he things to hard about his people, how this is all he's ever wanted for them. It makes him sad in a way, that the only way he was able to experience such a thing for himself was to take trolls out of the equation almost completely=-

It will be real for all of us one day.

It will be, love.

[She holds him just as fiercely, his worries and pains hers as well, more so when she knows how deeply they upset him, how they make her gentle love take the weight of the whole world on his shoulders.

With a gentle hushing noise she strokes his cheek, soothing and reassuring him as best she knows how.]

Tell me again what it's like, seeing everyone in Alternia working together.

Oh, Di..

-=he leans his forehead against hers, hands resting at her sides=-

It's too real to be a dream. The visions haunt me even when I'm awake, urging me to fix something that somehow became broken along the way. Something so beautiful and euphoric there are no words that can truly describe it. A world where everyone can smile is worth giving everything for...

[She takes the opportunity to nuzzle their noses together, brush her lips over his in a quick kiss. Her arms encircle him once again, hands resting at the small of his back as she takes in his words the same way she's done a hundred, a thousand times before, engraving them on her memory the same way she'll engrave them on her book later on.]

People smile so much more easily here. We can tell them of this when we get back too, how there are worlds out there where fear and caste have no place, and society runs along better than ever. We'll work together to see it happen on Alternia as well.

We will...

-=he finally starts to calm again, pulling in a deep breath and letting it out slowly=-

We'll help here like they asked, but we must return home. There are too many relying on me now. I can't abandon them now.

[She agrees with him with a nod, cupping his cheek in her hand.] Perhaps it'll even work out better this way, being away for a short while to regroup before we go on. But we'll never abandon the ones who need us, who have no one else there to speak up for them. To give them hope.
