Test Drive 23

Test Drive
The 3 rules of the TDM
  1. It has to take place in the 6I universe.
  2. It cannot be the character's arrival into the game.
  3. Please only test new characters who do not have a version in the game. Our cast list is here.
Prompts
  • FULL VIEW - The Observers really do their best to make each villager's wrist device as user-friendly for them as possible, but with all new tech, sometimes there's a learning curve... And sometimes, you just screw up. Like now, when you've accidentally triggered the video option and called someone completely random on the network without realizing it. Yep, you're just going about whatever, totally oblivious. Here's to hoping that your clothes are fully on, and that the person on the other end is nice enough to speak up sooner rather than later.
  • SHADOW OF A DOUBT - Being the intrepid (or just bored) villager you are, you've gone exploring and found yourself a very interesting (if moderately spooky) cave. What lurks in the dark? Might it be some shadow dust to turn you intangible? Or perhaps a cave wolf with all of its little goblin-monkey friends? Maybe, just maybe, it's both.
  • ILL AT EASE - 'Tis the season for the common cold, and you've got it. Unfortunately, the village doesn't have a corner drug store, so you're achy, miserable, maybe a little feverish. The good news is a little time in bed should do the trick. That is, if you're not the sort who has to be bullied to take care of yourself anytime you get sick. Either way, maybe you'll be lucky enough to find someone to tuck you in and bring you some chicken soup.
  • WILDCARD - Choose your own adventure. Maybe play powers roulette.
  • NETWORK - All characters are fitted with a smart watch-like device on their left wrist, which they can use to send text and video messages to other villagers. Text and/or video are allowed, any length. Display names may be changed by characters on the fly, but anyone can tap to see someone's real full name.
Please list your CHARACTER NAME, CANON & PROMPT NAMES in your SUBJECT LINE.

Diego's brow furrows, upper lip curling a bit. "No. For one, you'd probably purposefully spill the soup on me if I even ask. Which I wouldn't," he adds, shaking his head. "No, it's not wanting you to be able to. It's..."

His fingers flex, even though nothing feels any different, but it feels different to him. Maybe just in knowing.

"I don't know. We kept Klaus around for years," he says, but there's a wry smirk as he says it. He cants his head, eyes watery and his nose red rimmed as he considers Ben for a long time. "I wanna know what kind of people can bring the dead back to life. I mean, if you're not a hallucination brought on by a fever."

He would. He'd even enjoy it, but then, trolling Klaus has been one of his few forms of entertainment outside of reading and movies that he's had over the last decade and change.

"Maybe get better and then you can find out if I'm still your dead brother or if maybe I got brought back to life." He's used to hanging around and commenting, but no one's ever been able to hear him outside of Klaus before, so this is a whole brand new barrel of fish to work with. "Who's to say what Five did, it didn't bring me back?"

"Brought back to life or not, you're still my dead brother," he points out, giving Ben a look more befitting a twelve year old than a man of his age. Though that is a consideration, he realizes. All those times Five vanishes, all the moments when he went through time for the Commission. Maybe.

"Doesn't make you not the dead brother," he repeats, smirking a bit as he eats more of his soup.
