TESTDRIVE #1

[cobamods]

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! PREMISE | RULES | FAQ & QUESTIONS | RESERVES | APPLICATIONS 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!

No. I don't. [She turns and walks in the same direction she was headed earlier, but it's obvious that she's putting a bit more weight on one leg than the other.]

[keymash]

It kindaaaa looks like you do.

[notthebattleship]

[Ugh, she doesn't like admitting she needs any kind of assistance...]

Alright, a little. But it's only back to the hotel.

[Which...is ten blocks away.]

You can call a taxi if you want to help.

[keymash]

I can do that.

[ with wild waving and gesturing ]

[notthebattleship]

[You just wildly gesture at the street, and a Satomobile pulls up next to the curb.]

[keymash]

. . . Is that a car. Is that even safe?

[notthebattleship]

Yes...? [Congrats, you got her to raise an eyebrow at you.] It's not the newest model, but it's still is a car.

[He should know that, shouldn't he? Peter just used the colloquialism for a Satomobile.]

[keymash]

How does it run? Is it using gasoline? How does that work?

[notthebattleship]

How else would it run?

[The driver--wearing a 20's ear suit complete with the hat--opens the passenger door, and Zhu Li hops in.]

[keymash]

But it's got pipes and it's so . . . [ gestures ] Er, nevermind.

[notthebattleship]

[Another curious look. Cars need pipes to transmit oil and other fluids. Doesn't he know anything about engineering? Whatever. He probably wanted to look cool despite never having seen a Satomobile.]

To the Four Seasons Hotel, please.

[keymash]

Uhm, bye!
