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!

Okay, you can stay.

[AN IMPORTANT ONE]
complicity: (listening- do I look like I care)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Since when do I need your permission to do anything?
bloodymess: (08)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
I'm having a day, okay? Humor me.
complicity: (drinking- yes I am watching you)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Give me that bottle and I might.

[She's been trapped on an island and all but human for close to a year, and it's not as fun as it sounds.]

bloodymess: (05)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
[he'll happily reach over and hand her the bottle, after topping off his glass]

Having a day too?
complicity: (Default)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Try an entire bloody year, and that doesn't include what happened in New Orleans before I got to the island.

[Tipping that bottle back because who needs a glass right now.]
bloodymess: (12)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Was it a nice island?

[so maybe he wants her story so he has a distraction]
complicity: (conversation- you're full of shit)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
...Sometimes.

Aside from the curses, and the collars.
bloodymess: (10)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
I've had it about up to here with curses, no thanks to you and yours, so tell me about the collars instead.
complicity: (conversation- you're full of shit)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
Different kind of curses.

Basically they strangled you to death slowly unless you had sex roughly once a week.

Which is all well and good until you add in the curses and the other shit that goddess pulled.

And being all but human.
bloodymess: (06)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Iii'm not seeing the problem with having a lot of—wait. Did you say human?
complicity: (Default)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Human more or less.

On the island with Klaus, Kol, Elijah, Katherine, you, Elena, Alaric, and Hayley.
bloodymess: (14)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
I think I'd remember a nightmare like that.
complicity: (pic#7504020)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
Not necessarily. People are supposed to forget when they leave.

No idea why I remember it, actually.
bloodymess: (02)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
My body would remember. [no it wouldn't, Damon]

Also, I think I'd Elena going missing for a year, or you know, Ric being alive.
complicity: (depressed- hate it all)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Not really. Hayley said when she went home for a week, she was right where she left off before waking up on the island.

And then she came back actually knowing what we'd been trying to tell her for months.
bloodymess: (03)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
. . . that makes absolutely no sense.

So - what, time stops for people on the island? That shouldn't be possible.
complicity: (conversation-explaining this shit again)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
More or less.

It's all controlled by this goddess. I don't know how it works.
bloodymess: (02)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
[. . . wordlessly, he holds out his glass for a refill]
complicity: (drinking- yes I am watching you)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
[She fills it for him before taking another drink from the bottle]

Here's something you'll want to remember at least. Nik was the manager of a coffee shop.
bloodymess: (01)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
[he pauses, on his way to downing that entire glass]

No way.
complicity: (pic#7335238)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
Just hold onto that image for a while.

Might make the rest of it worth it.
bloodymess: (05)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-06 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
I'm holding onto it forever, close to my heart.

That's the greatest damn thing I've heard all day.
complicity: (conversation- you're full of shit)

[personal profile] complicity 2015-06-06 08:03 am (UTC)(link)
Well, at least one of us is in a better mood, then.

bloodymess: (01)

[personal profile] bloodymess 2015-06-07 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Whaaat, that doesn't perk up your mood either?
