APRIL TEST DRIVE MEME
 Prompts Arrival: So you've just arrived in Nyoi-Cho. Congratulations! You must be so excited about having your wish granted. Or maybe you're upset that the result wasn't quite what you expected? If that's the case, then that's too bad! There are no take backs and no redoes, so you're stuck with what you have! Maybe you should have been more careful about how you worded that wish... Oh well. There's no use in dwelling on it. You're a magi now, and that means adjusting to a whole new lifestyle! Maybe one of the townspeople can help you out. Only... they're acting a bit strangely, aren't they? They're all too happy to show you around, but there's something unsettling about the way they're behaving. Almost cheerfully dissonant. Any questions about the history of the town are met with blank stares and brief silence, before they plaster a smile onto their faces and change the subject. Any attempts to tell them about your duties as a magi or anything else that relates to the magical will get similar reactions. Isn't there anyone normal here that you can talk to at all? Home Improvement: The houses that the magi are given access to really are something, aren't they? There's almost no limit to what they can do! Why don't you create the house of your dreams, or maybe recreate and relive your favorite childhood scenes? Invite some spectators over to marvel! A Corrupted Soul Gem: You neglected to take care of your soul gem, and now you don't feel quite yourself anymore. You feel like you're losing your sense of self - all you seem to be able to focus on is your old regrets and past failures. What's happening to you? A Day in the Life: Everyday hero by day, magician by night! You've got a busy day ahead of you and no time to waste! Maybe it's school, or maybe it's work, maybe it's both! Being magical doesn't make you exempt from paying those shopping bills! May Day: Uh-oh. This magical girl stuff looked easier on TV. You're in some serious trouble! Or maybe you see someone else who is! It's time to pull up your socks and show them what you have. Be the hero you've always wanted to be, or give in and be that damsel in distress. There's no shame in needing a little help now and then. A Successful Mission: Congratulations! You met up with your first Nightmare, and you fought valiantly. You even mastered that tricky power of yours! What sort of power did you get? Is it a useful one, or is it not so useful? Maybe you've mastered it beautifully, and now you're showing off to all of your friends. Maybe you're having a hard time keeping it under wraps, and now you're wreaking havoc across the town without meaning to! A Dreadful Nightmare: You had an absolutely horrid day. As you drift off to sleep, your mind dwells on all the injustices you've had to endure. In response, your bed swallows you up, and your room shifts into a horrific Nightmarescape. What sort of Nightmare are you? What kind of Nightmarescape do you create? Hopefully your fellow magi can stop you before you cause too much damage! Wildcard: Feel free to use any information from the FAQ or the World Info page to make your own prompt! |

You let an amused chuckle escape from your throat.
Y'know, it's gonna take more than shivving a couplea small fries in a darkened alleyway to take over a town.
no subject
You know what? You can appreciate that kind of calm. You'd say the fella has a bit of PULCHRITUDE about him, not that you'd ever say that out loud. And he's got information, which you could use. Just so long as he spills it.
You been here a while, mack? Know the shakers in this place?
no subject
As someone who makes a job out of acquiring information, you would think you'd be a bit more tight-lipped. But what can you say? You like making conversation, and it's been a while since you had a decent one. Folks round these parts are downright shoddy conversationalists, and it doesn't take long for most of your conversations to go in circles.
I've been here long enough to catch on to a few things.
Like the fact that you won't run into any real shakers in this place, and there's a couplea reasons for that. The whole town's split up into two main groups: you've got the guys who came here from other parts, like you 'n' me, and then you've got the natives. Now, the latter group's real weird. They're about as quaint a bunch of folks as you can ever meet, sure, but they don't react to nothing the way they oughta. Heck, on some days I'm concerned you could show 'em the end of the barrel of a gun and they'll just greet you with that same vacant smile they always seem to have plastered onto their mugs.
As for our end?
You blow a low whistle.
Our end of town seems like it's got a real state of anarchy goin' on. Ain't a real leader to be found for miles around, and as a result folks are just sorta shouting all tryin' ta shout above each other so's they can be heard. It's a real mess.
no subject
None of its mindblowing. You've met the yokels who live in this place, and they sure seem to be a whole lot of know-nothings. You're pretty sure you could hit one with a crowbar and he'd still keep smiling like an idiot at you.
The skinny on your fellow inmates, though, that's a bit more useful. Makes sense that they're running around like a bunch of morons on holiday. Takes a special kind of guy to keep order in these situations.
Messy, huh? That's fine. Things being a mess can make it easier for a real leader to clean up. Sounds like the people here suffer from a lack of focus or direction.
no subject
Done.
Well, the place is full of snot-nosed brats. Wrangling control in a place like this would mean being put on 24/7 babysitting duty.
You got a name, pal?
no subject
You stick your tongue out and make a 'bleugh' noise.
Just my luck. Had to babysit a bunch of pants pissers before, not looking forward to having to do it again.
It's Slick. Spades Slick. What do you go by, mack?
no subject
Well, least you look like a decent fella.
You get the distinct feeling that "decent" isn't exactly the appropriate word to use on this guy.
>PS: Introduce yourself.
Slick, eh? The name's Problem Sleuth.
no subject
Sleuth. You some kinda do-gooder? Some kinda flat-foot?
no subject
What's it to ya?
