TEST DRIVE MEME

Welcome to the outsiders test drive meme! You can use this post to tag with characters you're interested in bringing to the game or who you'd like to try out in the setting.


Please set all threads in one of three areas: the landing zone, where your character get off the shuttle upon arrival; the markets, where your character might run into any of the station's alien population; or in the residential district they'll be staying in.

φ Please give the name and canon of your character in the subject line! OCs (including Mass Effect OCs) and AUs are welcome.
φ You may use threads from this post as a log sample, so long as it has at least 5 of your comments in action tags or prose.
φ If you app in later, you can keep CR from this meme if both players agree to it OOCly, and so long as you keep interactions to these starting areas.
φ Apps and reserves and are always open! Our next processing round runs from 4/20 through 4/26.
φ You can find more information on our setting here, and our navigation is here!

[ Loki follows Starscream when he starts to walk, and the question about his name makes his mind race, although he gives no sign of it outwardly. He's not seen Thor, but the eyes and ears of Odin are everywhere, so it pays to be careful. ]

The name is Jacob, [ He says with a small, gracious smile, ] And yourself?

[distortedscream]

Starscream.

[Passing a market stall with alien fruit, the thought occurs to him.]

Do you require food right now?

[Not like Starscream could consume any of the stuff.]

[notodinson]

Interesting name. Does it mean anything of significance?

[ Loki asks it with genuine curiosity, and when they stop near the stall, Loki's eyes pass it over. he doesn't need the food, but it would help him heal faster. ]

I haven't any currency to my name, at the moment. I'd hate to be in your debt.

[ But yes, he could have it, if Starscream wants to buy it. ]

Other than generally fitting with my people's language--[Starscream recognizes 'Jacob' as an Earth name, English if he understood correctly, and that the translation of his own name could be seen as odd sometimes]--I'm afraid I don't know of any great story behind it. At first I thought it was to match with the rest of my trine, our middle one's name also started with 'S', but our oldest's name started with a 'T' instead.

[And Starscream's reminded of his trine, a sore topic. To the pit with his rambling tongue. He seizes on Jacob's statement about debt as a change in topic.]

There's not much that's edible for me here, so I have somewhat of a surplus in my funds.

[Starscream gestures to the food stalls again.]

Take your pick, if you so like.
