( MEMES ) TEST DRIVE >> 003.

THE TEST DRIVE




Like it or not, you've been dragged from your world into the sanctum. It's a pretty nice city, all things considered--sci-fi, high-tech, glamourous.... Except, of course, for the giant dome encircling it, and the threat of glitching, contaminated zombies at your door. Looks like humanity's built itself a fortress that looks suspiciously like a cage, too.

The object of this meme is to get people familiar with the world of the Sanctum, and to try to see if their characters would fit in a sci-fi utopia such as this. Here are your options:

1. Intro: Waking Up. Make your intro post, folks. You wake up in a strange place, and get a strange transmission to go with it. What are you going to do?

2. Failed Upgrade. One of your upgrades is more wrong than right. How will you cope? What exactly is different? Who will help?

3. Mission outside the dome. You've come under fire. The strange things are coming towards you. Luckily, you have your suit, your teammates, and a lot of firepower. Or are you stranded on your own, looking for someone to come to the rescue? Perhaps you're the rescuer.

4.Infected Something bit you. Now you're turning into them, and all you can hear is a high-pitched squealing in your head, like a frequency you just can't quite hear. Do you tell your loved ones, or do you wait? Do you trust your doctor?

5. Military training Everyone's got to start somewhere. You're training the green folks, maybe you're one of the newcomers yourself. Maybe you haven't even touched a gun before in your life. Either way, you'd better start now.

6. Chance encounter makin' my way downtown walking fast, faces pass--you get the point. You bump into someone! Shopping, or strolling in a park? Maybe just lunch in a cafe?

7. Glory to the Network! Network post. Text with general queries, say what you have to say to the entirety of the whole city.

8. Wildcard: Whatever you want. Mix and match, switch and swatch, make something else up entirely!

"All major events are public record," she answers. It's the company line, and it's mostly true, even if the actual percentage of the archive available to the public is more around 25%. That's part of her job, too, assessing what is and isn't appropriate or necessary for the public to know.

Hm. So that tells her a whole lotta nothing, really, but that's fine. Natalia gets it. It's the woman's job, but the decisions to begin with weren't hers; she'd have to go over Alpha's head to find that one. "Are weddings usually worth recording in person, however?"

"They are when it's a coworker's." If she had declined the invitation, people would have said something. That's the real reason she came. Well, that and the archive room can be a little isolating after a while.

"That makes a little more sense." She smiles at Quebec again, taking a sip from her own glass. Raspberry vodka and juice. "I hope you're enjoying yourself, at least."

It doesn't seem like her type of shindig.

Anything that could be described with the word 'shindig' isn't her kind of shindig. Sure, in her teens and twenties she'd gone to here share of wild and raucous parties, prize fights, raves, you name it. But after... everything? She just prefers to focus on work now.

"It was a very tasteful ceremony." When in doubt, change the subject.
sklent: (short hair; so don't get hurt again)

Natalia arched her eyebrows at that one, glancing around. Dark reds, browns, black. Tasteful, maybe, but that's the first time she's heard of it.

"Glad you think so."
cois: (mes chagrins; mes plaisirs)

Tasteful, not traditional. Quebec respects those who break from tradition.

She just sips her wine and crosses her artificial legs.
