Test Drive; December

Test Drive



Welcome to the test drive for Time Trapped. This is an open forum to test out your characters to see how they would fit into the game and if you might be interested in apping them here. We want you to feel comfortable and, of course, test drive threads can be used as samples on your application to join.

First, a few housekeeping things before we start:

  ∞Apps will be open as of Dec 10th at 12 AM, and will reopen on the first of every month. They will remain open until the 10th of each month before closing.

  ∞Both first and third person prompts are allowed in the test drive. We encourage both. We also encourage making multiple prompt options in your post.

  ∞Finally, you will be allowed to transfer your test drive threads over into the game canon should you apply and be accepted.

  ∞If you have any other questions please feel free to refer to the FAQ or contact the mods directly.

Aside from that, happy test driving.

Instructions:
Post with Character you'd like to test drive using Name and canon in the subject line.

Prompts



   1. Acclimating to the environment
While Gideon has a part of the area sectioned off for now based on her calculations of where the time anomalies are going to occur the area is still large and confusing. It’s easy for a person to get lost or overwhelmed in this big mish-mosh of a world. Perhaps you are lost, or maybe you are just settling in.


   2. Reach out and touch someone
Gideon has been kind enough to provide you with a way to communicate. Whether that be a device or a simple SIM card. Why not try it out by sending a public message. Of course, you could also be sending it by accident.


   3. Make peace, not war
While LA has become a hodgepodge of different times it has also become a hodgepodge of different areas as well. Exploring the downtown LA brings you to a section of Greenwich Village in New York. Unfortunately what was once a peaceful protest has grown into a fight between Mogul hordes and peace loving hippies who just want to protest. Local enforcement is, of course, trying to sort out this mess but it seems they might need a bit of outside help.


   4. What's this strange building?
The 'Hall of Justice' stands in a sorry state as nature is trying to overtake it. Vines are crawling up the walls and there is Dimetrodon sunbathing in the courtyard, or what's left of it. Inside, any technology seems to have been destroyed and there is no sign of life. Still, it is a ruin left to be explored and the local archaeological society is willing to pay good money for relics from inside. Be warned that there may still be some rather nasty traps active inside and around the hall. If you happen to be a from the DC world you might see a few familiar faces among the broken statues that once adorned this building.


   5. Let’s dance
The Verdant. A rousing nightclub in 'bad neighborhood' of what was once Starling City circa 2013. There seems to be a wide variety of patrons here tonight, anything from Greek Scholars to some Greasers. What a great place to grab something to drink or maybe cause a little trouble.


   6. Dressing in style
Perhaps you arrived in less than ideal clothing. You may have arrived in no clothing at all. It might just be about time to look through some clothing stores and find what is right for you. Of course, it’s never that easy though. There are pickpockets and thieves all over the streets. You may just become their next victim.

   7. Home for the Holidays
Little old London town is high in festivities right now. It's Christmas and the area surrounding Big Ben is snowy, though it's a bit melty due to the climate in LA. Festive decor and foods for sale circa 1885 in england and emotions are cheery and positive. Take a horse and buggy or attend a christmas party.

Just hope the mongols don't show up. Or Amazons.

   8. Wild Card. Go nuts.

Vector might be too close to Victor.

[Well, that made sense. The suit would be completely powerless after an EMP blast. But it also clearly wasn't over a large enough area that it affected her. Both important things to note. Gideon was using EMPs, so apparently, it wasn't her goal to physically hurt anyone - at least not Ray, and her area of effect was, for now, limited.]

So no getting bigger, or will you get bigger once you're out of the suit?

[She doesn't know the protocol for this. Does he grow when the suit comes off, does he stay small? Is she going to have to go to the hobby store and get him a dollhouse, or the pet store and get him one of those rodent carriers?]

That's really all it takes. That smile. The way he holds himself. Captain. Whatever flicker was there douses itself in silence, even as she never looks away from him, and her expression doesn't change. She's gotten good at that. On EarthX. On her own ship since he showed and started putting his nose -- and especially his face -- where it didn't belong. Telling her he didn't like the job she was doing.

But staying still.

"Good enough for kidnapped." It's true enough, and annoyed enough.
She nods, easy, fast, simple, walking toward him. "There's a few of us already."

"Most everyone is gathering near The Waverider while we collect the people appearing everywhere." At least the Civilian ones. "Everyone else is scouting for those people, for safe spaces, and the threats that seems to keep opping up just like everyone else is."

"That was a few days ago."

Although it feels like a lifetime. Every time they all get together it feels like that. Something insane happens and their whole lives get turned upside down. It seemed to be the nature of this group, this family, to get into more trouble than anyone ever wanted.

"But, that's not abnormal here." Apparently. She can explain this. She can totally explain this to Quenton without it sounding like she's on some kind of drugs. She's done it enough already.

"I mean, Oliver and Thea are here, but they're from three years ago, and Sara's here, but she's from the same time I am. So, as learning curves go you're doing great."

If he didn't expect a brow raise at that name then he was one sorely mistaken meta lion-kid. He's totally getting a brow raise at that.

"Felicity."

She offers out her hand.

[Ray looks up at her. Really, Felicity? Don't laugh. He takes his helmet off. ]

I guess I'll find out once I get out of it.

"The keepers of the crystals of ice and fire. Time travel guys." He replies and shows him a metal disk with a emblem of two dragons eating each other's tails.

"This usually would let me go to Ouroboros, like I said. But I can't get there anymore."

The way she looks and acts, it seems she came from a worse place than he did!

"Not familiar with living in the lap of luxury, ay?"

[Those sound pretty impressive to her. Of course, then there's mention of Superman (someone she's only heard of) and .... was that Sherlock Holmes? That's an odd group of people.

Then again so are they, so are the Legends, and they all work out well.]


That sounds pretty impressive. You, I mean, not your friends.

Well okay, Felicity. Why are you giving him that look? He shakes her hand with his paw, or rather, his hand that's almost a paw. Halfway between man and beast.

"What's with that look?" Maybe she saw him swipe the game? Nah she'd have said something by now. Heh.

"Yup. Pretty nice digs too. Everything's shiny, but most people just use it to get from one point to another." He replies.
pocket_sized: (I'm oddly excited about this.)

Sounds like a good choice.

"And there's another weird idea. Team Flash. Wally couldn't wait to kick me to the curb and hand me off to another speedster. Always tried to leave me behind with Linda or Piper or Jesse," Bart said, acidly.

"But Max was...he was the best. I wouldn't be who I am if it weren't for him. He taught me what it meant to have a family, to have a life that wasn't just...being fast. I learned how to slow down because he didn't see a reason not to take things as they came instead of rushing."

He can't talk about all of it, he doesn't want to. "But Savitar stole everything from him. I thought it was bad enough when I lost my speed, but seeing someone else looking out of those eyes...it just wasn't right."

Maybe. I'll think about it.

"Maybe he was just trying to take back what was his." Projecting much there, Sav? Probably. He can only imagine one Savitar is like an other.

He's definitely hamming it up to ten. Maybe twelve. Maybe even fifteen. He looks young, but he, also, looks a lot like a black lion. Even in the dark here, and that snow that's speckling him and his clothes. It's a little unnerving, but she's not really one to judge on that.

"Oh-okay," Kara says, reaching for the handle. It all reminders her of some crazy period film, and she help thinking Alex would love this. Aside from the whole time falling apart thing. But the rest of this part, she'd love. She had to find Alex, find her way back to Alex. To home.

But tonight, she was going to get to ride in what looked like an authentic Victorian carriage. She'd just have to take it.
Which she did. Turning the handle and getting into the compartment, looking around everywhere.

"It's not in her programming. I mean I don't think it is."

She knows she knows nothing about Gideon. She's been told and rambled at about her, but she hasn't been face to face with all the wires and programs. There could have been a hidden subroutine that altered her personality, but what could have triggered something like that? It seemed off that the Legends would or would let someone else do it.

"Let's get you somewhere to sit. I'll check your eyes."

Maybe he'll turn up soon, then. [ Strange, little pause, then, rambled almost a little too quickly. ] Or -- wait -- should we be hoping for that, really? Or should we be hoping that other people aren't being pulled through. Have you guys worked out what's going on? What this is? Why it's happening?

Caitlin!

[ Relieved voice is so relieved. Familiar voices. Friends. ]

What's going on? Where are we? Where are you?

[She's trying not to, she's really trying not to, but he's so tiny and she's pretty sure the only thing making it so she can hear him is the fact that he has to shout. So, so tiny, it's the tiniest of Rays.]

So? Can you even get out of it if it's completely powered down?

[Be serious Felicity. This is a very serious matter full of very serious things. Full of serious -
oh come on! Her best friend is GI Joe sized. This is hilarious.]

"The Speed Force doesn't belong to anyone, if anything, it's the other way around," Bart said, and there's a weight of experience behind that statement. "Thad thought that way, too. He's kinda my brother, I guess, but he's all Thawne. He said I stole the power from him, and didn't care if he nuked the entire west coast if he could get his connection back."

He was almost right, because Bart being the Speed Force as that older him that he remembered being had meant it wasn't available to anyone else.
