Test Drive
Prompt 1: Amnesia
[ You woke up, all your memories having vacated you. Well, that sucks. But hey, no time like the present to go out and figure out things. Maybe someone in your smartphone contacts knows you or what's going on. You open up your smartphone's lock screen and-- hey, that looks relevant. Profile pages! It has your unit name, member names, but no pictures. . .
Well, the rest varies. This one says Likes: Industrial Strength cleaning products, Breakbeat hardcore, Volleyball shorts and Dislikes: Roombas, Electro-industrial, Maid Outfits. The next has a thrilling tale that concludes with the idol mud-wrestling God, though it doesn't mention if they won or not. The third says that the member became an idol because they want to use the television and media attention to get the notice of their long lost sister, and reunite their family. The fourth just has someone's three sizes. The fifth has a detailed astrological profile.
Since no one remembers their names and there's no pictures to match it to, this is actually less helpful than you hoped. And furthermore, the doors aren't opening until you and the rest of the amnesiacs on this unit tell it who is who. Looks like you and the rest of these people have to discuss which of you is more likely to have mud-wrestled god, and who joined because they really want to find their long-lost sister. Or you can just use the tape-measure that was left sitting on the main table of the center room, that might be a quick way to settle at least one of these things. ]
Prompt 2: Memory Regain
[ You saved up your points, performing in Games or Lives or Vids, something or other until you had enough points to put the order in.
You didn't really know how to expect a memory to look like, but as it turns out there's just an alert on your app. Once you click it, a playback starts-- on the screen, and in your mind. You remember something now.
However, in buying the cheap version, that just broadcasted to several other people's phones in the area as well as all screens in the area. Cool. That was definitely what you were trying to do. ]
Prompt 3: Game Time
[ Welcome to the Game Tower. Today's game is a sort of mad fake phantom thief free-for-all. You arrived, were given top hats and cloaks, and the inside floor of the tower had been remodeled to resemble an art museum, with a giant roulette wheel right by the elevator you exited. Below that was a little slot, where today's hologram host explained the wheel would spit out a slip with a goal just for you.
So you have a little slip of paper with a goal on it, and no way of knowing what anyone else's goals are, though you did see the big roulette wheel being spun at the beginning letting you know the some of the possibilities:♚Steal a heart
♚Steal a life
♚Steal an object
♚Steal a kiss
♚Steal someone's clothes
♚Steal someone's shoes
♚Steal a secret
♚Steal the giant statue from the center of the museum
♚Steal the portrait that depicts your true love
...well, waiting around isn't going to get you any points. Get to it, temporary phantom thief! ]
Prompts 4: Fanmail
[ Today, trying to take the elevators up from the lobby to access the apartments you and the other units live in just isn't working. Upon the doors being pried open, you found out why quickly: the elevator shaft was jammed up with fan mail, so it couldn't properly descend. Letters cascades out from between the open doors: letters from people who watch you play games, do lives, make vids, and probably all sorts of other things on those omnipresent cameras.
Are you really going to read these? Though right at your feet, a few have spilled from their envelopes. Now you can't help but read those. Here's one in purple glitter pen that says, jesus just come into my home and strangle me with your hair and one that is written with newspaper cut out letters (alarmingly reminiscent of a calling card written by a serial killer) that reads incongruently hello my soft best child ur good and valid and I love you forever plz be ok don't listen 2 the haterz u have done nothing wrong. Oh, and here's one asking if you can wear tighter pants for your next live, they want a better shot of your ass for their shrine. This one just says MARRIED?
Well, it's just as well you have no idea who those were for. Most this fanmail isn't for you. Except for the few that you just read, they're all labeled in envelopes for different people from all the units. Time to read other people's fanmail. Or try and find them and deliver the fanmail. Or just start a big fire in the middle of the lobby, you could do that too. ]

no subject
it's kind of lonely being in a place where you know and remember no one]
Okay. Well-- um, I guess I'm Crimsina. I'm new here. And, umm... I'm trying to make friends. Honest. I just didn't know what that pile of letters was.
no subject
. . .
[kind of. makes a face at the word "friends," but it's not a distasteful face. he looks uncertain and dubious and kind of ???? like HOW DOES HE HANDLE THIS]
It's a pile of bullshit, that's what it is. Fuel for the next dumpster fire.
no subject
Well, I know now. Trust me, next time, I'm just gonna find the nearest garbage can.
But anyway, I told you my name. What's yours? Don't make me have to take a guess based off the things I was just reading.
no subject
. . . Mars.
[a beat]
If you've met Joker, I'm the evil twin, regardless of what he may try to convince you.
no subject
[immediately, she has a very bad concept of this.]
Like... taking candy from babies evil?
[is he sure about this]
no subject
Even worse.
Manspreading on the train evil.
no subject
I really underestimated you!
[and then she just grins.]
Guess I'm taking a chance with this one. But maybe I'll be able to show you the error of your ways.
no subject
I just have to die at the end.
no subject
We've been talking for five minutes, and I think you're going to do something different. You don't seem like a "die at the end" kind of guy.
no subject
Looks can be deceiving.
no subject
Well, I guess we'll just have to keep talking to find out. You might be evil, but I'm persistent.
I don't remember that, it's more of a, umm, "gut instinct" type of thing? You'll just have to trust me.
no subject
[quirks a brow]
I know what it's like to be working from no memories and only on "gut instincts." It happens to all of us.
no subject
[she whirls now to where she's in front of him, her eyes and face earnest]
Please? I'll be a good student!
no subject
[he's doomed]
[takes a step back]
Followed my gut and did whatever the hell I wanted to do, regardless of what people said. I'm kind of my own person.
no subject
Okay. So... what sort of things? Because otherwise, I'll never leave the cafe, and I'll drag you with me there right now so we can both have desserts.
no subject
I mostly kept my distance from people and was kind of an asshole?
Because I'm an asshole.
Trust me on this one.
You don't want my company.
[it's a halfhearted attempt he knows it won't work]
no subject
Is this... reverse psychology?
[she's just looking at him expectantly, taking the entirely wrong message from this, and just getting whatever she wants out of it]
I see, I see!
no subject
I-- no, it isn't. I was being serious.
no subject
[she swings her arms from side to side, grinning]
You're toughening me up for whatever challenges we're gonna face.
Well, I'm ready, don't worry. Gimme your worst shot.
no subject
Are the obnoxiously optimistic type, I see.
[MARS RUDE]
no subject
Mmhm, mmhm.
no subject
[is not working]
You're cute.
[HA HA]
no subject
Huh?!
[now she's trying to figure out what his angle is. Is he saying she's not cute?
Is he saying she's cute?
She was totally tracking along, but this throws her for a loop]
... Wow, you got me. I was totally ready before, and now... That was good!
no subject
You actually completely misunderstood what I was saying, but I'll give you credit for being tough.
no subject
Okay, maybe that's enough reverse psychology for today. But still, now I'm really hungry.
Come on!
[and she grabs his hand to pull him along with her.]
Let's go get those desserts I talked about!
