Welcome to Medietas and our first ever Test Drive Meme! As we approach the grand opening of the game on April 1st, we thought we’d kick things off with a little something that will get you all interacting in the new setting! And it’s one less sample you have to worry about on your application if you’re considering our little game here.

You all know what to do but if you don’t, just follow the instructions and HAVE FUN!

How To Play:

→ Comment with the character you’d like to test drive. Don’t forget to add their name and canon in the subject line.
→ Choose a scenario, or start your own!
→ Tag around!

Possible Scenarios:

1. New Arrival: You’ve just arrived on the island of Medietas, in the city of Aerilon via a … floating boat, with people you may or may not know? You can’t help but ponder what’s going on here, but the vessel seems to be approaching a harbor and when it docks, some lovely locals are standing in wait to greet you. After that they hand you a map and communications device and invite you to find your accommodations and explore.

2. Party, party!: On the evening of your first night in the city, a party is being thrown on Aerilon in honor of your arrival. Eat, mingle, dance, meet the other new arrivals! The locals put on quite the celebration!

3. Go Exploring!: There's plenty of places to explore, be it in your designated housing area, or on one of the adjoining community islands! Hike the mountains in Eurus. Sit on the beaches of Imber with a cocktail, or go swimming. Adventure in the forests of Mundus. Be careful though! Every area has it's dangers.

4. The Bells Are Ringing!: And that means a islands wide warning that something dangerous is approaching! But where the heck are they coming from? Nevermind that, the caretakers rally the children and the senior citizens while Scykal, Imber's local sea monster, emerges from the large body of water on the island. Interesting. He hasn't been spotted in a long time. Help the locals defeat him!

5. Wild Card!: Choose your own scenario!

Felicity!

[Nick was just accepting his own communication device and map before he glanced over to catch sight of her turning in a circle. She looked as confused as he felt but he was relieved to see that she was still okay. He just wanted things to stay that way too. Especially since he had a feeling that this wasn't at all what they had planned.

Moving to her side, he tucked the device into his back pocket before reaching to rest a hand on the small of her back.]

Are you okay?

[The world came into sharp focus when Felicity caught sight of Nick and she wasn't exactly gentle as she pushed past someone to get to him, either.]

I'm fine. I mean, not fine-- what is this place? [She held up the map with one hand and the device she'd been given with the other.] I thought there weren't going to be devices or natives on the new island. [Leaning into his touch, she looked around.] And I don't recognize most of these people.

[Nick didn't say anything about the fact that she had practically shoved someone aside to get to him because it saved him from doing pretty much the same thing.]

I don't think this is the same island. Or at least, it's not run by the same Goddess or whatever. [He looked almost hesitant to say it as he shifted to wrap an arm around her shoulders to keep her against his side.] I think we might have gotten pulled somewhere new.

[Somewhere new might not have been so bad except it wasn't home and she'd been promised home. Her frantic look, eyes wide, and in typical Felicity-fashion, showed just how unhappy she was with that possibility.]

She said we'd go home, Nick. If we wanted to. Not-- whatever this is. [Her hand went to her stomach and she took a breath. Leaning against him, she looked around again.] I know it's bad luck, but. It can't be any worse than the last place, right?

[Really, Nick isn't happy either but he forgets his own discomfort in the fact of her getting upset and worked up. Rubbing a hand up and down her back, he bites back the urge to tell her to breathe but just nods instead.]

I know it's not home but at least we're together, right? [His eyes flicker down to the sight of her hand resting over her belly and he can't stop himself this time from reaching out to slide his hand over hers.] Let's hope it's not. I've noticed we don't the collars though, so that's a big difference already.

That's what I meant. [And it was, but the stress of being in another place, not where she'd planned, had gotten the better of her.] I'm sorry.

[His hand covering hers helps and she covers his with her other hand and closes her eyes. She'd hoped to be raising their baby in the (relative) safety of Star~~ling~~ City and with the detour, she's suddenly very afraid that their child will be subject to the whims of another... being and that they'll lose the chance to raise it. Together.

Looking up at him, she has to admit:] Collar or not, I wasn't going to share you with anyone.

Don't be sorry. [He murmurs softly, leaning down to kiss her lightly. It's a good way of distracting her when she is worried.] I know it's not exactly ideal but we'll be okay.

[Then he straightens with an amused look, looking more pleased than not with the statement. Now he eases his arms around her, drawing her into an embrace as he smiles a little more.] That's fine by me. I wasn't really inclined to share you either.

[Distracting, calming her down, arousing... it does a number of things to her when he kisses her and the first two are good in a situation like this while all the others are a bad thing. Especially when she's not entirely sure what comes next.]

I'm glad to hear it. [Closing her eyes for a moment, she takes a deep breath and steadies herself before opening them again and taking in the crowds.] Do you have any idea where we go from here?

Someone said something about a house. [He replies when she seems steadier.] They told me that I had to find the island that I've been assigned to or some nonsense. They gave me a number too.

[He looks at the people handing out the maps and devices.] Maybe we should see if they have a device and a map for you?

[Felicity held up the device she'd been given and pulled the map out of her coat pocket.]

I didn't stick around for the island part. [It was a sheepish confession.] The device and map upset me and I was looking for a face, anyone.

[A breath.] Where's your house?

[Nick wondered if he should be more freaked out than he was at the moment or if it was once again his spectacular coping skills kicking in. He knew that it had weirded out people in the past that he was so good at handling crazy things.]

Eurus. [He glanced at his device again.] Any idea where you are?

[Because he will go with her, thank you very much.]
