Welcome to the Test Drive! In this post, you'll be able to interact with others to get a feeling for your character. All threads below will be considered non-canon unless otherwise stated. Multiple different scenarios are available, you are welcome to post multiple comments with different scenarios each or post one single comment containing different scenarios.


i n s t r u c t i o n s

• Post with your character (note character name in the subject).
• Other people reply to you by picking a number from the scenarios in the subject line.
• Have fun!


o p t i o n s

01 • AWAKENING. Your character has just woken up, or turned a corner, or blinked and now their animal companion has joined them. How do they react? What were they doing beforehand? How are they going to handle the news that they're a knight now? For this thread, you'll be threading with your animal companion. (You must provide the thread-start for this option)

02 • ON THE PLANE. You were promised a seat on a plane out to the island but it looks like you and another Knight (or the Princess) were double-booked! Chat it up with your fellow fighter, commentary from your animal companions is optional.

03 • THE ISLAND. You've just landed and you're somewhere on the island. One of your fellow companions is nearby and they sure do look like they've just landed with all their luggage still in tow. Or they're already wearing an Island tourism shirt. Or who even knows, but you're both here!

04 • COFFEE SHOP. All you wanted was a Latte, or a Frappuccino, to consider why you're here on the island and what you were going to do until the first monster showed up... Instead the barista called for "Drink for the Knight" or "Drink for the Princess" oh shit, but this isn't your drink! Or maybe it is your drink but someone else is there! Why would two knights have gone for coffee at the same time? Or did you get confused for or with the Princess? Come on, man, there are only so many unicorn frappes in the world.

05 • DISCOMFORT. Your room is an oven. Either that or a freezer. Or maybe this bed is just really uncomfortable? Who knows why you can't get to sleep, it feels like it could be anything. Why even bother trying? Maybe someone else can preoccupy you until you feel tired enough to ignore your discomfort. Go for a walk, go outside, looks like you're not alone in your discomfort. New island housing is wild!

06 • PENSIVE. Something's on your mind, and no matter how hard you try to focus elsewhere, it's just not going to work. Your body may be tired, but your mind is incredibly busy and it's virtually impossible to get to sleep. First night on the island is rough. Surely, talking it out with someone else will help?

07 • BEACH EPISODE. You're on an island!! There's beaches everywhere, there are pools on every street. Endless water opportunities, chances to fool around and relax before things get serious. You're not the only good guy to have had this thought! What are you both up to?

08 • LOCAL FOOD. You've been dying to eat X, a dish that you've seen numerous other knights eat on TV. Now YOU'RE a knight (or the princess) and you're eating it yourself, there are kids at home that'll be excited to eat this food because they saw you eating it! You might even get a commercial spot to advertise this food when you get home. Awesome! Except someone else is here, what if they get the commercial spot? Huh.

09 • DENNY'S. It's 3am and you've arrived at a Denny's. You're almost certain that there's not a Denny's on the island and you're not even sure you walked in here? But it is what it is and the server is already bringing you a menu and taking your drink order as one of your fellow allies slips into the booth across from you. Have you met them before, or are they new to you? Your animal companion is here, too, and they're ordering something as well.

10 • WILDCARD. Choose one of the options above, or make up your own scenario.

And wow did Haizea just hit the jackpot in getting Seth to become way more talkative, actually clearly beaming now even if it was slightly stunted.

"I know right?! When I first found out about it I found it really cool how flowers could hold all different kinds of meanigns! It took me years by now I know most of the meanings by heart! I honestly think about meanings a lot in general. I've met so many people who speak but their expressions don't match the meaning behind their words."

She's a bit surprised at that last remark, that was pretty deep. She decides to try to keep this light so he feels more comfortable and will have fun at the beach!

"That's pretty impressive that you know almost all of them! Hmmm..... what's the strangest meaning you can think of for a flower? Is there a flower that means something funny, like 'I hope you fart well next Tuesday'?"

Seth takes a moment to think about that as there are quite a few different meanings.

"Well one meaning I find strangely specific is Persimmona, which means 'Bury me amid nature's beauties. There's also the Linden tree that means 'Conjugal fidelity', Japonica, Pyrus specifically, which means Fairie's Fire, there's Tussie Mussie meaning 'Fragnance Remembered' and in my opinion the most funny is Oats which means 'The witching soul of music'."

The more he types the more he start silently giggling.

Haizea has no idea what any of those flowers are and the meanings kind of go over her head too since they’re fairly poetic. “Even the weird ones sound kinda pretty, huh? I don’t know what a witchin’ soul of music could be, but it sure sounds kinda cool!”

"I just find the last one funny, and a little absurd."
Seth types, he's even smiling the teeniest bit.
