TESTDRIVE #1

There's a number of ways it could happen, but regardless you find yourself standing on the outskirts of a city. A beautiful city, as familiar to you as any from your world, with all manner of buildings within sight. A sign on the side of the road greets you, saying WELCOME TO COBA You're already part of the family! It's practically inviting you to step into the city limits. Why don't you?

As soon as you do, you'll find a pamphlet in your hand, almost eager to tell you all about what this mysterious Coba has to offer. And eager seems to be the impression you get about almost everything - the sun seems to brighten, the flowers seem to perk up - it's almost as if everything about Coba is welcoming you as an honored guest.

And you are. Though hopefully, only temporarily. Coba would love nothing more for you to become an honored member of her precious community.

Welcome to Coba, visitor, and we hope you enjoy your stay!

Please read the FAQ before commenting! ♥


Welcome to the City of Coba Testdrive! Your character has found themselves in Coba, and are welcome to do any of the following:

● As you enter the city, you hear some bustle about a homecoming party! Following the signs will find yourself at a plaza with food, drink and live music, of all sorts and types. Why don't you stay awhile and indulge?

● Or, if you're not the party type, maybe you'd like to check out the city's cultural center! There's art, books, and other things to keep your mind occupied. And, maybe you'll meet other like-minded people there.

● Not in the mood for any of the above? There's always the beach! It's a lovely day, the waves are beautiful and the stores along the boardwalk all have signs up that read "TAKE WHAT YOU NEED". Maybe you need a surf board.

● Or maybe you have something else you want to do? Go for it! You're more than welcome to come up with your own prompts.

In addition to the above, we would love to encourage anyone taking part in the testdrive to world build with us! Whether it be a street name or an entire neighborhood, whatever you come up with will become part of the game's canon. All we ask is that you pop over here to link us so we can see what you've done!

Finally, ENJOY YOURSELVES. Seriously, this is meant to be a laid back, enjoyable game. We welcome any questions, critiques, and ideas, so always feel welcome to approach us about any and everything.

We hope you decide to stay here in Coba!

[ Startled, he ducks his camera down awkwardly ]

I could be?
prefers_magneto: (magneto condescending)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Here, of all places?
keymash: (So what's wrong with taking)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-06 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
What's wrong with here? Other than, y'know, no one knows what here really is.
prefers_magneto: (magneto dangerous)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Or how they got here, exactly.
keymash: (Nothing more than that)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-06 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Er, when you say they, you mean us, right? Or do you just like talking cryptically?
prefers_magneto: (magneto bamf)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
I mean us. [He gave the kid an appraising look.] Where were you coming from when you ended up here?
keymash: (Get the show on get paid)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-06 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
I was on my way home from school. Nothing special.
prefers_magneto: (magneto arms)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
From school. What are you, fifteen? Sixteen?
keymash: (Trying to save the world)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-06 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
. . . Seventeen.
prefers_magneto: (magneto next move)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Are boys still in school at that age?

[He didn't have what one might consider a traditional education.]
keymash: (That's the way I like it)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-06 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
You don't talk to a lot of teenagers, do you.
prefers_magneto: (magneto morning)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
No. Not even when I was a teenager. [He regarded the boy for a moment.] Aren't you concerned that your parents are wondering where you are?
keymash: (I keep my game face on so well)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-06 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ this is a familiar tune. He ducks his head a little, fidgeting with his camera ]

I don't have any. My Aunt May is probably freaking out though.
prefers_magneto: (magneto next move)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Interesting.] But you're not trying to get hold of her?
keymash: (Your brain gets smart)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-06 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
I left her some voice mails. But she trusts me to make it home to her. And I will.
prefers_magneto: (magneto anticipation)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-06 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
How can you know that? You don't even know where you are.
keymash: (Only shooting stars break the mold)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-07 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ He meets Erik's gaze head on, without fear ]

Because I'll always make it back to her.
prefers_magneto: (magneto analyzes)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-07 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
You don't lack in confidence, do you? I take it this your first stop in the big, wide multiverse.
keymash: (But I'm late)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-08 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
Er, yes? I prefer the term alternate dimensions, but there doesn't seem to be anything alternate about this one, so maybe pocket universe works better.
prefers_magneto: (magneto anticipation)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-08 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
And you think you're clever. You're going to fall hard, son.
keymash: (Didn't make sense not to live for fun)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-08 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ The "son" part makes Peter raise his eyebrows at him ]

I am smart, old man. I don't skate along life with just good looks.
prefers_magneto: (magneto analyzes)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-08 12:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Erik snorted.]

Suggesting that you could, if you were inclined?
keymash: (She was looking kind of dumb)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-09 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
Probably. I'm not balding early.
prefers_magneto: (magneto sees)

[personal profile] prefers_magneto 2015-06-10 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose you think they want you for a reason, then. Any special skills?
keymash: (Another victim of ordinary fame)

[personal profile] keymash 2015-06-10 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ Smooth, Peter, smooth ]

No reason. I'm gonna . . . go now.
