Test Drive Meme #4 (cw vehicular crash, moderate injury)

Test Drive Meme #4
Fall toward me with your entire body.

CRASH LANDING

Exit one dimension, enter the next. It was chaos: pressure against your ears, light bending in an impossible, unimaginable way. The very molecules of your body vibrating against one another. If you have windows, the view outside makes no sense. Even if not, your hands, your face, your feet seem like an uncertain thing. It's the feel of reality itself tearing apart, reshaping, reconnecting, thread by thread.

And suddenly, there's a beach— or ocean, whichever you land in. Smoke. Fire. Salt water churning up, fizzing around.


Maybe you crash, in a ship wrecking into sand. Maybe you merely stumble out of a portal, a ragged wormhole in space. Or maybe you fall off the back of an incredible steed, some creature that carried you into this place. Either way, there's pandemonium around you. Incredibly, severe injuries are far and few between— nobody's screaming about the dead. But you might have to help pull someone free of wreckage, or move quickly to salvage burning belongings from the landing craft. Maybe it's the crafts themselves, that you're trying to salvage.

Likely, you don't know them, these other strangers who arrived here[1]. Maybe you don't trust them— you just came out of a dying world, after all. But you all have one thing in common: you're here now.

When you get a second to breathe, maybe you'll see it. The brilliant green forest across the sand. Beyond that, the glint of a faraway city.
FAIRGROUNDS

Xistentia's late summer fair is on! As F.A.T.E.S. learns about different universes and different people, the event looks mismatched, beyond complicated, and you might wonder why, exactly, how to get ride tickets when no money is exchanged. But as you wander through, you can see a rollercoaster, a five-a-side soccer pitch set up for a tournament, facepainting, an archery range, a haunted house, a circus tent, a Ferris wheel, plenty of different food stands with eclectic choices all over, from kebabs to Taiwan's infamous penis-shaped waffles[NSFW] to popsicles for two. Maybe this is only a front to get people involved with each other?

Everybody is welcome to man a booth, or just walk around and participate in the different activities set up around the fairgrounds.


NETWORK

One afternoon, you are taken from whatever you’re doing - taking a walk through the city, sunning yourself on the beach, running around in the forest shoring up defenses - by a message, appearing on your Daemon’s network screen. It’s a simple line of text, that reads:
NEVER HAVE I EVER...?

If you choose to answer it, you’ll be connected to another player at random. You both get 10 points. The loser? Owes the winner a favor.
CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE

hells yeah
Footnotes
  1. Some of these can be nameless, plot-device NPCs to facilitate interactions! But even in this case, please avoid gore in describing their current state of being. Anyone dead or catastrophically injured will have disappeared by the time your characters make it to Xistentia. There are no corpses or dying here.

  2. But like OOCly ask permission ofc.

i guess so. i mean, i don't think about it much.

how about this: what brought you here?
salveo: (worry)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-27 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
literally, whatever this fates thing is. i'm fuzzy on the details because my home was being attacked, i was defending it, i blacked out and here i am. i think someone put me through the evacuation portal but instead of going to where i was supposed to go, here i am.

truth or dare?
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-27 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
sounds about the same as the rest of us
except i didn't black out
i grabbed my boyfriend and escaped
hoping to get home
but ended up here instead.

anyway, dare.
salveo: (thumbs up)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-27 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
you're both here? that's great. must make it easier. when i showed up a person i really cared about took care of me and that helped me to adjust with what happened.

i dare you to come meet me at the fair, wearing a shirt where you've written "KING OF GHOSTS" on it. also draw a ghost on the back of the shirt with a crown on it. :)
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-27 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, idk what i'd do without him
and it's good to know you have someone too
makes a big difference in a place like this


[ and a pause before he responds because ugh, this is a ridiculous dare. but he figures he might as well. when he's faced with a challenge of this sort, he's not the type to back down. ]

that's a big dare but fine
where at
not that i won't be hard to find
salveo: (smile)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-28 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
yeah, i feel you on that.

i'm at the penis waffle stand.


[ Which was a fun thing to type. ]
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-28 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ there's no response from nico, because as he normally does, he's popping out of a shadow to look around. he didn't quite reach the penis waffle stand, but he was close enough, so sliding his hands into the pockets of his pants and shrugging his shoulders, he headed closer. the shirt he's wearing has a skull design on it and as he was dared, features a ghost draw on the back with a little crown.

when he reaches the stand, he immediately glances around for the man he'd seen in the photos. easily spotting him among the crowd, he approaches, one hand raised. at his hip, as usual, is his sword which leeches its usual cold aura. from the stranger, he senses a strangeness about him. not quite a mortal soul, but something stronger. ]


Alright, I'm here. And I even drew on one of my shirts for this. I believe it's my turn to ask truth or dare.
salveo: (shock)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-28 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ And now it was time for Zeke to stare. To blink. And then to stare again. Son of a-- was this going to be like the Rosie situation all over again?! No, because Rosie said she was also Rosie. This kid said he was Nico, and his accent wasn't even French! ]

Shit, I'm sorry. [ he finally breathed. ] You look exactly like a guy I know back home. Mordechai, a grim reaper. Do all you death boys have the same look or something?

And that sword isn't fucking around, is it? [ He nodded at the weapon which was giving him chilled goosebumps. ] How about a dare?
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-28 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
[ blinking at that reaction, nico pauses. he's seen people that look the same, but to be told he looks exactly like someone is a bit strange. especially since he knows he's similar in appearance to the anubis guy he met in new orleans. did his father have more children he didn't know about? that's the only thing he could think it would be, but he also knew his father was the only one of the big three gods that didn't break the oath to not have demigod children after the second world war...

it leaves nico's head swirling a little but he shakes his head a little and clears his throat. ]


Er... grim reaper? I mean, I can manipulate the dead, but I don't... yeah. That's the job of my father's lieutenant, Thanatos.

[ but that was neither here nor there. he gave a quick wave of his hand and then glanced down at his sword. he didn't pull it from his sheath, already figuring it was affecting zeke so he considered the game instead. ]

Stuff a whole penis waffle in your mouth.

[ hey, he's a teenager. he can be a perv sometimes too. ]
salveo: (laugh)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-28 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty sure the guy I know works for Thanatos, but it doesn't really matter. He's not here, I don't think. Shit, maybe he is. I don't know. I just got here a few days ago and it's been one hell of a wake-up.

[ Wrapping his head around all of this might take awhile, but he thought he'd get there. But the dare made him smile and without hesitation he turned to the booth and ordered the biggest one they had- it was impressed, at least ten inches in length and there were plenty that were smaller so it's not like Zeke didn't have options.

He turned back to Nico with a wink before he tilted his head back, opened wide, and pushed the entire thing down his throat with ease. All the way down to the stick, where he closed his lips so he could move his hands away and hold them out as if to say 'ta da'. When he pulled on the stick he took the waffle half way out of his mouth and bit down so he could chew and swallow- followed by the latter half so there was nothing but the clean stick left. He tossed it on the table with a chuckle. ]


I've had bigger. Truth or dare, cutie?
deathkid: (pic#10431613)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-28 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ that just gets another weird look from nico because someone working for thanatos? either his dad's changing up the roster or this is some alternate reality weirdness. either way, he turns his attention to watch zeke, only to stare with mouth open and eyes wide as the guy pretty much deep throats it. that hadn't been what he meant. he was thinking chubby bunny style, but now that he's seen it, he knows he won't get the image out of his head. ]

Er... Right. [ might be turning a bit red at being called "cutie" ( among other things ) ] Truth, I guess.
salveo: (rly)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-28 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Alright.

[ And Zeke grinned a bit like the cat that got the cream. ]

Tell me exactly what you were thinking about when you watched me deep-throat that cock.

[ Because nothing made an incubus happier than hearing those sorts of details, and you can be damn sure he was paying attention to Nico's sexual aura. He wanted to see if it was more than just those cheeks that was running hot. ]
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-28 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ sputtering, nico's cheeks turn pinker still, clearly flustered by this line of questioning. it's not like with vex, whom he was comfortable enough despite the occasional raunchy banter. this was a stranger and nico didn't know what to make of him. ]

I-I was thinking that wasn't what I had in mind. But, um... that was, um, impressive?
salveo: (laugh)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-28 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ He laughed and suddenly felt bad for the poor guy, he clearly wasn't ready for a beast like him and he could respect that. Or at least so Zeke thought! ]

Hey, thanks! Sorry if I freaked you out. So, my turn right? I'll pick truth this time.
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-28 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ still a bit flustered by the questioning, nico's eyes narrow for a second. he can still feel the strange aura coming off zeke and it makes him curious. so when zeke says truth, that gives nico an idea. ]

What are you? I mean, you're obviously not a mortal human...
salveo: (rly)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-29 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
You're right, I'm not a mortal and I'm not a human. I'm am incubus. [ And for a moment his brown eyes went gold, then they went back to brown again. ]

I haven't been advertising it around here because I don't know how people feel about demons. So it's your turn, truth or dare?
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-08-29 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[ if nico's surprised by the change in eye color, it doesn't show. in fact, he isn't, because he's seen so many strange things already. he remembers bo, his sister of sorts, and her succubus powers. an incubus doesn't seem all that weird. so he shrugs, hands shifting to slide in his pockets. ]

Interesting. I could sense something was different about you. And you don't have to worry about hiding it. There's all sorts of people here like werewolves, fae, vampires... Really, there aren't many normal humans. And I guess I'll pick dare again.
salveo: (thumbs up)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-08-31 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, thanks! Good to know. [ He was going to take Nico at his word and let his natural gold eyes back out. Hopefully he was right to trust him! ]

Alright! Let's go to the facepainting stand. You're going to get a heart on one cheek and a skull on the other!
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-09-05 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Facepainting? [ nico makes a face at that, not particularly wanting someone to paint something like that on his cheeks. but he did accept the dare, so... ]

Fine, lead the way.
salveo: (smile)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-09-07 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, how about I do truth again in the meantime?

[ He motioned for Nico to follow him towards the face-painting stand. ]
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-09-09 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ following behind zeke, his brows raise a bit, watching the incubus with mild skepticism. ]

Alright, first kiss.
salveo: (welp)

ca: incest mention

[personal profile] salveo 2017-09-09 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh, well, I hope you don't get creeped out but my first kiss was my mother. In sex demon families that's usually the way it goes...

[ He looked a little sheepish as he rubbed the back of his neck. He wasn't ashamed but he knew this was a taboo subject for more. ]
deathkid: (Default)

cw: incest mention

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-09-09 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ you know, anyone else would've probably balked at that, but nico just kinda gapes for a few seconds before shaking his head and chuckling. ]

Well, my step-mom is also my cousin and my boyfriend is also my second cousin once removed? Or something like that. When half your family are Greek gods, incest tends to happen.

[ and he doesn't mention that he is was in love with his first cousin, percy. ]
salveo: (playpout)

[personal profile] salveo 2017-09-12 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
[ That made him smile and look more comfortable. ]

Oh yeah, all the gods I know are like that. Well, I'm glad it doesn't freak you out. But with sex demons it's more of a necessity thing so we don't accidentally kill our first feeds, we need experience before we get out there, you know? Nothing's worse than killing your first.

We don't usually date family since we can't breed with them anyway. Two sex demons, that is, we can't procreate with each other. It's gotta be with another species, humans are typically the best to go for. Hey wait, this is a whole lot of truth from me and it's supposed to be your turn. So truth or dare?

[ He asked as they stepped in the line for the face painter. ]
deathkid: (Default)

[personal profile] deathkid 2017-09-12 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Can't say I've met a lot of sex demons, to be honest. Empousai sort of count, but their powers of seduction don't really work on me. [ being gay and all.

he shrugs a bit as they approach the painter, and nico gives the booth a leery look. ]


I picked dare last time. How about truth?
