BUCKLE UP: A TEST DRIVE MEME

Been feeling as if you'd sort of, kind of, maybe like to consider a new character at Poly? Haven't had the chance to figure out whether they work for you in the setting or in general?

Just start a thread for them here with:

character name | series

- in the title, and tag around! Alternatively, just comment to someone else's thread, either doing your own thing, assuming characters just met in the City, or maybe working off one of the following premises:

i. ...it's raining people! The character whom you're tagging missed the memo about perfect Fountain landings and ended up falling on your character instead.

OR

ii. ...ah, a lovely evening at a City shop or bar, when you've just realized you don't have the currency to pay your tab and you have to beg or steal it off someone else!

OR

iii. ...your characters are running up an endlessly high hill from a herd of rabid pandas.

Naturally, the meme is more than open to people who aren't currently at Poly, so pimp this to poor souls you're hoping to enable, it's the perfect time to lure'im in ♥

But it didn't take.

Rough, huh?

[Like he doesn't already see that and anticipate it.] It just gets worse from here. Think you can handle it?

Handle what? Are you gonna kill me right here, right now?

Come on, Charley, when did I ever lay a hand on you? [Speaking of hands, his fingernails are getting sharper, longer, gesturing between them.]

You came after me. You couldn't leave me, your brand new neighbor, alone. Well you got me, guy, and now you can't get rid of me.

I can thing of a few times. [And that's not good.]

Dude, it's not like it was a choice. Don't make it sound like you're all innocent when you were the guy who started snacking on my friends and making rape faces at my mom and girlfriend.
