September / October Test Drive

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! As if in response to your masterful victory, you feel as though you've unlocked a new power. 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!

[Bro's foot has barely set back down on the ground from his righteous kick when he hears Dave. And just stops, sets down slow as he looks over at him.

What did Dave just say to him?]


Well, I mean, hey Dave. You wanted to back down, don't have to make excuses.

[What, was his bro giving up? Was Dave so weak he was just going to set this shit down, when it was getting hot, right now? If Dave just couldn't take the heat by this point, then hell. Dude wasn't going to amount to shit when it came down to it.

Never mind the fact it's so reasonable. That it's so adult. Hell, if it had been anything else Bro would have realized how sane that sounded. Training could always wait a bit. But naw. No. Not this time. Dude is trying to chickendance his ass out of here. That's it. That has to be it. What else could it be.

It's not like he could know better than him, right?]


You can't handle it. I understand. Let's take a seat in the front room, you can rap it down for me. I'll even get a nice cushion for your sensitive ass.

Wh--

[The noise that escapes Dave's throat is completely undignified, and he honestly doesn't even know why he's surprised by any of the words that just came out of Bro's mouth. Really, how the fuck was he expecting Bro to react?

Still, if Bro's aim was to get his goat, the he's succeeded tremendously.

Before Dave even registers what he's doing, he's spun his arm out in a whirling motion, palms outstretched in Bro's direction. His powers kick in, spraying a jet of jpeg particles straight at Bro in what Dave hopes is sufficient distraction.

Then he's zipping across the room with his flashstepping abilities and fishing his sword back into his hands. There's no way in hell he's gonna take that kind of insult lying down.]
eatdavesbabies: (What the hell)

[Whoa shit what the hell is this? In another situation, perhaps, Bro could have appreciated this power. This pure ironic strength Dave wields.

Right now though, it's just pissing him off as he brings his arms up to block the assault. By the time he puts them down Dave's already across the room, drawing his steel up.

That's how we're going to play? Alright. Looks like he can play a bit rough.

Here comes Bro, Dave, swinging his blade low. Better move or block, because he's not playing easy for this.]
ironicoolly: of a higher intensity (watch automator draw a laser)

[Dave had barely risen back up from the ground again before Bro came swinging at him, so dodging the attack is definitely out of the question. Instead, he just barely manages to fend it off with his own sword; the block is shaky and awkward, twisting his arms at an angle that makes it hard for him to apply any real strength to his sword, but it buys him enough time to get his bearings.

He retreats back a few steps before Bro can take advantage of any of the many holes in his shoddy defense, then flashsteps forward again with his sword swinging.]
