Welcome to Medietas! Do you have an interest in joining the game? Is there an old muse that you want to dust off? Or, perhaps you're looking for a place to voice test a brand new character and would like to do so in our little island setting among friends? Well, whatever the reason, this is where you can do that!

You all know what to do! 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. Getting Settled: So, now that you've arrived and wandered around the starter home you've been given, it's time to check out the rest of the islands. There's a market on Aerilon that is full of treasures. Or, you can check out Chapter Six bookstore. Perhaps you wander over to the Mean Princess facility on Mulciber. There is so much to see and do!

2. Islands: There is definitely some weirdness going on around the islands from the sidewalks that glow to the mysterious energy that doesn't seem to have any direct source. There are statues that hum softly and seem to grow every so often. And what is with these bridges? Go forth and investigate! Puzzles are FUN!

3. PARTY: Every month or so there's always a celebration somewhere, be it on Mulciber, Imber, Mundus, or Eurus! Eat, drink, dance, talk among the other islanders. It's about making new friends and enjoying yourself, right? Even if you have been stolen away from your homeworld to a bunch of floating islands.

4. Wild Card: Got something else in mind and want to create your own scenario? Go for it!

Kara (Zor-El) Danvers | Supergirl

[iamsupergirl]

I. Islands

"Wait. Wait. Wait a minute--" She says the words, but they are getting higher and faster, and her just seconds ago wandering, confused steps, grow faster ina steady line. "I thought you meant, I mean, of course they had to be, names, people have to name everything everywhere, so they they know where they are -- but they're real? They're actually real rainbow bridges?"

Her eyes are bright and her hands are somewhere in front of her, seemingly confused about whether they were supposed to clasp together, clap, or cover her mouth.


II. Comm

[ The network comes on next today to small, demur blonde girl, fixing her glasses from side. ] Hi -- uh, hello, there. This is Kara. [ She looks up and swallows. ] Wait. You don't know that. I'm doing this all wrong. Let's start again.

I'm Kara Danvers, and I'm new-- [ She's nervous. Her stomach is a basket of snakes, and she can't keep her weight on both her feet. She keeps shifting, wants to knit her fingers together, but there this device in one of them. ] --which you probably already got, sorry-- [ There's a small, semi-feebled, laugh. ] --but the people who handed me this device-- [ The screen wavers, as her hand must be shaking it slightly. ] --said I should try putting up a message to see if anyone I knew was here already.

Which has got to be crazy, right? [ This would help a lot more, maybe she'd see less doubtful, her expression less pensively confused, about what exactly to be hopeful about, and what was crazy, after waking up on a flying boat, not in her bed any longer. ] But. Um. Anyone out there? This is Kara. Danvers. From National City. California.

[ Beat. ] Earth. [ For the most part. ]


III. Wildcard! Exactly what it says on the tin.

Wanda didn't really trust the bridges but she also felt uncomfortable using her powers to get across. After everything that's happened she didn't want to stand out. She stepped up to the bridge and took a deep breath, hesitating just enough to hear another girl approach the bridge.

Her head turned and she spotted the girl coming closer. Wanda couldn't tell if she was confused or happy about the bridges.

"Have you seen fake rainbow bridges before?" Honestly, Wanda hasn't seen either.

[iamsupergirl]

It's a little embarrassing when the woman turns around, but Kara can't really contain her excitement, or even her smile, straight through that flood of embarrassment. It makes her duck her head and try to compress that smile but it only last a second, before she's back to eye contact and that almost bigger than it was smile.

"We don't have anything like this back on Earth." Or Krypton. Not like this. Actual, factual rainbows. Her hand touches the side of her glasses and she stepping over to her, because she has someone to ask at least. "Is there anything to it?"

[scepterschild]

Wanda blinked a few times before shaking her head. "No, I don't know." She quickly added the last part. It was nice to see the girls enthusiasm but Wanda didn't know what to do with it. She didn't spend a lot of time around the enthusiastic, unless you counted Steve but even then it wasn't like this.

"It doesn't feel safe to walk on."

Except that everyone was walking on it.

[iamsupergirl]

Kara's glee dented only a wavering touch between all the people walking on it, and the woman's very seriously put disquiet about how it didn't feel safe. She stopped next to her, but she looked between the rainbow bridge, and all those people, and the woman, taking her word seriously, but wanting, no, needing more information.

It was as if she knew more than her last fifteen minutes of knowledge for being here. "How do you mean?"

It'd been so nice to find something to easily and unabashedly love.

[focusscottfocus]

[Scott knows that look pretty well by now. It's someone who's just arrived on the islands and barely has a grasp of what's happened to them. He smiles and offers a little wave.] Hey, Kara. I'm Scott. Also from California, actually. I'm guessing you've gotten the quick rundown, right?

[iamsupergirl]

Hi, Scott.

[ If her heart sinks that her device suddenly vibrates to life and someone starts talking from it, but she doesn't know them at all, it buoys back as fast. Maybe it's not someone she knows, but it's good to know the people here are helpful, right? That she's no somewhere that people are hiding and not helping each other in these circumstances. Whatever these circumstances are exactly.

Plus, the guy was from somewhere in the state, back home. That wasn't terrible. ]


Flying boat, starter house, something about no way home?

[focusscottfocus]

[He can see it in her eyes, that momentary disheartened sink, but she bounces back, fast, and he can't really hate that. Not many people have the optimism he tries to bring to the world, so it's kind of a rarity to see that reflected in someone else.]

Yeah, that's the basic gist. I don't know that we're...on Earth? Or...in the general vicinity of our solar system, even? But...most of the people here, you'll find, are pretty helpful. [He assures with a slight nod.] We try to stick together, in all our displaced glory.

[iamsupergirl]

[ Kara isn't expeceting Earth, at least. There weren't any floating planets or flying boats, at least not the like the ones she just got off to get on to, where she came from. Another planet. She was on another planet, in another galaxy. Flung off course. Again. She wished Alex was there to joke that at least it wasn't the first time for that.

Alex would be so worried to find her missing. And Wynn. Jimmy. Her mom.

Kara tried to push that down. At least for now. She had to get her bearings. Then, she could handle the rest after that was handled. She gave this Scott a brave smile, even crinkled around the edges. ] That's good to hear. I supposed it's really the only thing to do, if you've been here awhile and people keeping coming in, right? They said this has been happening for a few months?

"Oh they're real. They look like something out of Tolkien, but they are solid and somewhat disturbing at the same time as gorgeous." Fet was standing nearby, having paused as she started talking, this strange, bubbly, and apparently excited woman.

"Let me guess. New?" His grin was teasing, but also welcoming.

[iamsupergirl]

There's a flare of embarrassment getting rudy in her cheeks, when she ducks her head, but can't entirely seem to find a way to dim her smile. It's a rainbow bridge. It's like something out of fairy tales, and somehow, here, on another planet, it's real and they connect floating islands. Floatings. Islands. With a. Rainbow. Bridge.

Even if she isn't supposed to be here, she can't help being moved by the amazing things about it already.

"It's super obviously, isn't it?"

[aversiontorats]

"That's okay. I was the same, when I first got here." Well, maybe not nearly as bouncy, or bubbly, but still.

"It's an amazing thing, huh?" He stared out at the bridge, and shook his head. "Feels half like it shouldn't be real, and yet it feels solid to the feet." He glanced at her. "Perfectly safe though."

[iamsupergirl]

"It's breathtaking." Maybe someone else would use that word and make it sound normal, but on Kara's lips it sounded wholly full of unashamed awe. It was like something out of a dream, or a storybook. How could a place be wholly bad, if it welcomed people with something like this?

Her smiles grew a little unruly, as she wavered a little in the direction. Like a child only nearly holding themselves still. "I think I have to go try it, then."

[redarrowqueen]

(Comm)

Nothing is ringing bells for National City, I got snagged from starling City myself. [The voice is coming from a brunette digging for her archery gear from the hall closet of Casa Queen.]

[iamsupergirl]

Starling. [ Kara repeated, adding it to everything else she was getting told. ] Like the birds?

[redarrowqueen]

Kinda?

Island

[notarambler]

Sam smiled sometimes he really liked watching new people's reactions to the islands because some of them really looked like they were going to have fun with the place. He sets down his sack of food nodded. "Pretty amazing right," he asks warmly.

He's trying not to think of her like a tiny sparkly doll, because he knows better than anyone how strong women can be, but seriously compared to his muscular, moose like height and weight she is a tiny sparkly doll of sunshine. "I've been here over six months and change and I still find surprises on the islands."

Re: Island

[iamsupergirl]

"It's amazing." That last word is breathless with brightness at finding someone who agreed with her. Her smile something that was spun off by the sun itself, as she's looking from the guy back to the bridge itself. So many people walking across it like it's nothing. She wants to go stand on it already. She wants to fly under it and trail her fingers through it. To look up and see if everyone walking on it, suddenly looks like fragments of those prism colors.

Re: Island

[notarambler]

Sam smiled warmly. "I forget sometimes how beautiful this place is but it's got it's dangers too. You've got to be careful or you might get trapped in a snow storm or almost eaten by a six foot tall rabbit with fangs."

[thisismyworld]

[Her mannerisms remind him a lot of himself. Especially back home trying to fit in. Something that didn't always work, but it helped. So he gives her a warm smile noting just how nervous the poor girl was.]

Not as crazy as you might think. People show up.

[Another smile and the video itself might seem a bit higher than it should be.]

Clark Kent from Smallville, Kansas.

[Then his eyes seem to spark with a bit of mischief. He's loosened up since being on the islands.]

Not from this world or Earth.

[iamsupergirl]

[ It's another friendly citizen of this place, and she's doing well, she's even smiling until he gets to his name, and then her expression turns. Brows pulling in pensive and confused very suddenly, crinkling her forehead and the skin around her mouth, head tilting one way. ] Wait. Did you say your name was Clark Kent?

Like-- [ There's no other word for it, and she's on a video she can't even make the gesture that comes to mind. Can't use the other name in her head. Either of them. ] -- Clark Kent? [ Because he must be mistaken. It's just a small world, er, universe. Right. There's a frazzled blink. Recover. Say something. Ask something else. ] No relation to Martha and Jonathon, right?

[ Because of course there couldn't be. Now she was just being foolish. ]

[thisismyworld]

[He notices her reaction to his name and watches her. If he focuses then he can find her heartbeat, listen to her breathing and catch how or maybe even why she's reacting the way she is. Perhaps she was nervous? If that were true than he's not sure why.

However, at the mention of his adoptive parents' names he turns the video to private.]

[Private]

They're my adoptive parents. I'm Kal-El of the planet Krypton.

[superlegacy]

[Hello, fellow member of the Super family! He doesn't know that yet, though. Have a ten-year-old greeting you anyway, Kara.]

Hi, Kara! I'm Jon Kent. I used to live in California too but we moved. We live closer to Metropolis now.

Re: II

[iamsupergirl]

Small world. [ Er. Universe.

She was really going to have to get the hang of this.

She offered a faltering sort of smile. ] My cousin has the same last name as you.

[superlegacy]

He does? What's his first name?
