TEST DRIVE

Game Navigation

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. ]

Luna | OC (LiliS or BARiTONES)

1. Truth or Drink

[ the rules are simple: ask each other questions and you are compelled to either answer truthfully or take a drink. every time you make your partner drink you get a point!

Luna is sitting nervously at a table, shrinking into his seat and kicking his feet. When someone walks by he sheepishly looks up, speaking quietly: ]

U-um, do you want to play with me...?

2. Fanmail - Same Unit

Seriously...?

[ he just walks up to you and hands you a bunch of fanmail that's mostly just 'SEND NUDES' or like unsolicited dick pics. ]

Soooo if you could do me a favour and burn these that'd be great, thanks.

3. Fanmail - Different Unit

[ if you're on a different unit though he just wanders up to you wide-eyed, a tremor in his voice: ]

H-hey, is stuff like this normal...?

justpure: (The more she learns)

Same unit- LilliS

[personal profile] justpure 2019-05-01 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm? [He takes the fanmail and carefully sorts through it... He doesn't seem fazed at all. In fact, he's keeping an eye out for anything addressed to him.]

... Forgive me, but why must you dispose of these? The public clearly admires your beauty.
notadrop: (mold me to the shape I dream to be)

Re: Same unit- LilliS

[personal profile] notadrop 2019-05-01 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't really care what the public admires, dude. They're not gonna pat my head or buy me shit so why should I care? If being wankbait isn't gonna pay the bills I'm not interested.

[ There's a bit of a grumble and he breaks eye contact, looking off to the side with the tiniest hint of a blush. ]

Also I'm cute, not beautiful. Get it right, jeez...
justpure: (I am one who seizes their dreams)

[personal profile] justpure 2019-05-01 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm... Perhaps you have a point, there.

[In lieu of forgotten experiences, he lets his unit guide him. But...]

But what of the sentimental value? Besides, cuteness is another form of beauty, is it not?
notadrop: (hidden behind the monitor beyond)

[personal profile] notadrop 2019-05-01 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
What sentiment? "Let's fuck" doesn't mean anything from someone who doesn't even know me. Or like, even half of me! Even the porn and hate mail is nicer to get.

And no, cute's...I dunno, it's different. People care more about cute. Beauty's just "buhhh, girl pretty!".
justpure: (scrum)

[personal profile] justpure 2019-05-02 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Are you sure? The security cameras record every move you make in the games and lives.

[He pauses, considering his own words...] Or, at least every move your idol persona makes. The face you show to the public? If you don't think the sexual offers are appealing, at least you've created a character that is loved by the masses...

[A soft sigh. Somehow, the notion of beauty being tossed aside like that doesn't sit well.] I don't think that's a good description of beauty. Remember those lovely paintings from the Phantom Thief game?
notadrop: (saw the worth in me)

[personal profile] notadrop 2019-05-02 02:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh, right. Everywhere else the cameras weren't an issue, but keeping composure in games wasn't the easiest thing in the world. Yeah, the fans probably knew a least a little bit of the real Luna.

He grumbles again, looking down at the ground.
]

That's -- ! I'm not doing it for them, you know! I'm just...

[ He trails off and shuffles a bit uncomfortably in place. There's a bit of stumbling over words under his breath before he just changes the subject entirely. ]

Beauty's different when you're talking about art and nature and stuff. It's just, like, awe-inspiring, right? Besiiiiiides, having to steal those paintings was the stupidest thing ever. That true love shit was fucking embarassing.
justpure: (Yoake no ban ni)

[personal profile] justpure 2019-05-02 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[He simply responds to the subject change with a nod. After all, he didn't want to make his teammate too uncomfortable.]

It could have been worse, you know. [Some of those games can be quite taxing... The thief game was a walk in the park in comparison.] And I'm not quite sure they're that different. You could also call something in nature "cute," yes?
notadrop: (11)

[personal profile] notadrop 2019-05-02 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, sure? Buuuut even then! No one wants to protect and hold and love a mountain~ Not the same way they want to protect and hold and love a kitten~

I'm a kitten, not a pretty landscape. Like, you're the pretty landscape.
justpure: (Oh my)

[personal profile] justpure 2019-05-04 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you see-

[His thoughts are cut short by what he assumes to be a compliment.]

You... You think I'm pretty?
notadrop: (9)

[personal profile] notadrop 2019-05-04 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Thaaat -- !

[ He flushes red and brings his hands up to his chest, breaking eye contact. ]

No! I didn't! I-I mean, yes I did but I didn't mean it like that, okay? It's just, like, an objective fact? Like, your hair is nice and stuff. Okay?! That's it!
justpure: (the more tainted she becomes)

[personal profile] justpure 2019-05-05 08:09 am (UTC)(link)
...

Why thank you, my friend.

[He seems genuinely touched. Look at him, he's probably smiling under that decorated facemask he's wearing.]

Truth or Drink

[personal profile] onetrippony 2019-05-02 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Dino pauses in hiw walking to glance over when he's spoken to, brightening to see someone there. Honestly he'd thought he was going to spend half the game finding someone free to play. ]

Sure, I was hoping to find myself a partner to play with too.
notadrop: (15)

Re: Truth or Drink

[personal profile] notadrop 2019-05-02 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh...! Okay, thank you!

[ He pours Dino a drink, sliding it to the other side of the table. ]

Ummm, but I've never really had alcohol before! So if you don't mind going first...
onetrippony: (Appaloosa)

[personal profile] onetrippony 2019-05-03 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Do you need recommendations then... ?

Ah- sure. I'll take a truth.
