TEST DRIVE MEME

[caelestis]

This game is revving to go, so we're going to start things off with a pre-opening TEST DRIVE MEME. This meme will be open up until the game opens properly, so please keep checking back with it and tag anyone who posts a little later. :)

TO START US OFF....

A. The mundane!

1) > You have discovered a portal to the meat dimension. Congratulations, you're at Chinese Diner Aiya! The rainy day challenge sure is difficult... But maybe this time you can make it.

2) > Every day's great at your Junes! You've run into each other at Junes! Maybe you're buying a Jack Frost Doll, or a magic set. Or maybe you're just getting groceries.

3) > Off to school you go. Class, quizzes, creepy teachers, clubs, and Social Linking ahoy!

4) > So you need some money to buy that Rise doll you saw at Junes, why not get a job? Frustrating co-workers, meeting people you may or may not recognize as customers. Get ready for the usual "I didn't know you worked here!" talk, because it's coming your way.

B. The extraordinary!

1) > You wake up on a mysterious train, and so has the person right next to you. You have no idea what train this is, where it's headed, or how you came to be there, and it seems like neither does your new friend. Why not chat about it?

2) > Your first venture inside the TV World. How does it go? How do you get there? And most importantly, who are you going with?

3) > There are three enemies! But holy shit this is your first fight, how are you going to handle this? Good thing you've got party members to help you out!

THERE ARE UNLIMITED SCENARIO POSSIBILITIES... If you have any other in mind that you want to play out, please go ahead and do so.

Please keep in mind that since this meme is set in the world of Caligo, you may use your threads here as the Caligo-specific samples needed in the app. And most importantly, have fun!!

The most glorious!

[honkalypse]

[He probably gets scolded for it in school, but it's not like the teachers can call his parents.]

Good. Good. Tomorrow we'll find a way to make me up and feel myself again.

[malignant]

[Probably gets scolded for the makeup too. Poor bugger.]

And if the fucking doctor can't help, we'll figure out something.

[honkalypse]

[Forced to wash it off most days, but damn it, he's going to keep trying. He's just going to need new makeup a lot sooner.]

Got all my hopes on them being all up and able to.

[malignant]

[One day, Karkat will come up with some bogus excuse for their teacher that would allow Gamzee to keep his makeup on.]

I'm going to make fucking sure that you're going to be okay.

[honkalypse]

[And on that day Gamzee will be the happiest little clowntroll.]

I-- [Is he choking up a little? Maybe.] What I up and fucking did to deserve the most bitchtits moirail I don't even motherfucking know but--

[And he can't put it in words, so he just traces a diamond against Karkat's skin.]

[malignant]

[And on that day, Karkat may actually legitimately smile. And not just smile for the sake of trying to make Gamzee feel better.]

You were just a fucking friend to me, when no one else was, I guess...

[He feels the diamond traced into his skin and jumps a little, not really expecting it.]

[honkalypse]

[That will be the best motherfucking day. THE BEST]

Best friend. Best moirail. [He just continues tracing it, over and over.]

Think I was up and motherfucking pale for you all along. Wanting you to get your chill on and be all full with the good feels. Just didn't up and have a name for it before.

[malignant]

[It takes a moment, but Karkat actually purrs a little bit. It's almost like having his horns rubbed. But whatever Gamzee's been doing with this diamond he's tracing, really has Karkat smiling a little bit.]

Fuck man...

[Another little purr comes out of him.]

Glad I could be there to fill that quadrant for you.

[honkalypse]

[Oh that's a happy discovery. He hums back, smiling and leaning in a little more.]

Didn't know we could up and do that in these bodies. Makes me full of good feels to up and hear it.

[Nope, not stopping the tracing now. He will be doing this often from now on, oh yes.]

[malignant]

[He's just got himself going like a motherfucking purr mobile and he might be sort of cuddling Gamzee to the best of his ability. Shit.]

H-human bodies are fucking sensitive, man. Their skin's so fucking thin...

[honkalypse]

[Cuddling and purring, this is so very nice. Gamzee cuddles back and definitely doesn't stop the tracing. He's making Karkat happy and feel good! Awesome.]

Haha, yeah, it's all up and soft and thin and delicate.

[malignant]

[Karkat might squirm a little bit, but it's primarily because he's enjoying it. And he didn't think he'd ever see an upside to being human. And this was certainly a nice feeling.]

Hey Gamz...?

[honkalypse]

Mmm? What's up?

[The squirming makes him almost draw back, but then he realizes and laughs.]

Being all kinds of ticklish?

[malignant]

Sort of...

[He instead just leans against him in more of a hug.]

...Thanks.

[honkalypse]

[He returns that hug fully, perfectly content to keep this up until Karkat gets bored with it.]

Should be thanking you. You saved me.

[malignant]

[Asdfghjkl! Karkat stammers a bit, nearly surprised.]

The fuck? I saved you?

[honkalypse]

How do you motherfucking think it would have up and ended if I'd all kept listening to the voices and the urges? WE'D ALL BE DEAD.

[He doesn't know much about timelines, but he's sure that if Karkat dies, the timeline dies too, so he says that as a fact. An upsetting fact.]

You saved me from me.

Thanks for tagging this back. Idk if you saw my plurk. But I kinda...flipped.

[malignant]

[He smiles a little bit and tightens whatever sort of hug they've got going on and he paps Gamzee almost playfully.]

I'm glad you didn't fucking snap anymore. I don't think I could fucking handle losing you too.

[honkalypse]

Not ever going up anywhere.

[The pap makes him smile a little into the hug and he closes his eyes, just to focus on Karkat.]

((ooc: Yeah, I saw. :( I really hope you feel better. And I wish I could be more eloquent or helpful or something, and I'm just going to press post now before I sit for an hour overthinking how to word things.))

[malignant]

[He's quiet for a moment before he squirms up and gives an almost affectionate little kiss to Gamzee's forehead.]

You tell anyone I fucking did that, I'll fucking break a sickle off in your nook.

((ooc: Thanks for understanding...I just get really bad sometimes and I just flip on everyone. Fortunately Gam<>Kar is one of the things that cheers me up, haha.))

[honkalypse]

[Oh, that's nice! It's something that hadn't up and occurred to him before but he likes it, and Karkat always knows what he's doing.]

SOUNDS MOTHERFUCKING PAINFUL. But a brother's not up and wanting to ever be telling at no one your secrets.

[His voice goes even softer as he presses an identical kiss back against Karkat's forehead.]

Our secrets. Motherfucking most special little things all up in here just for us.

((ooc: Glad I can help a little to cheer you up, then))

[malignant]

[He may or may not have seen it in a stupid human romantic comedy. Which he may or may not have started to watch because he hasn't been able to watch his favorite movies from back home.]

Well, now you know what kind of secret this is.

[He smiles, as Gamzee seems to have an easier time returning the gesture to him based on their sizes.]

That's something moirails do, right?

[honkalypse]

The best kind.

[He laughs a little, soft and a little nasal.] But you're being the expert up in here. This brother only up and knows the basics, dig?

[malignant]

I guess so...

[How he wishes there was a television set in here so he could show Gamzee the Earth equivalent of one of his movies on moiraillegiance.]

I'm still trying to figure out all this shit too. I've never actually been fucking open to a pale quadrant before so I'm still figuring shit out too.

[honkalypse]

We can all be getting our schoolfeeding on of this miracle together. Kicking the wicked learning. I like that.

[He does, and his smile is bright and eager. He's looking forward to learning how to be the best moirail. To be exactly what Karkat needs.]
