TEST DRIVE MEME #1

No gimmicky dinosaur setup this time round, since the game is actually rolling now! If you've got a character you want to try out in this setting, make a thread with them on here, and if you don't, see if you can tag other people with your characters.

Test drive threads can be anything you like, in-person or online, just make it clear which one your thread is when you start it. Make sure to put the name of the character and what canon they're from in the subject, so people know who they are and where they come from.

Can I use test drive threads as samples for my app?
Indeed you may, fair stranger

Can I decide a test drive thread is game canon?
Heck yeah you can, provided the person you threaded it with is cool with that too!

Somewhere in one of LA's retail districts, a store keeper is having one of the most stressful customers of their life.

Mostly because said character seems a four foot tall crab who can speak more English than anybody ever needed to hear, while also using their four separate grasping appendages to fondle everything in sight.

"Oh my god," the crab enthuses in their sort of strange, nasally voice. "Earth stuff is so cool. How did you guys even make this shit? Wow."

The shop keeper is so far mostly just keeping their distance.

"Sir? Uh...sir...please don't...never mind."

HOLY CRAB THAT IS A GIANT CRAB.

An alien? Are there giant crab aliens in peaceful cooperation with Earth? Whatever the case, he was clearly new to the planet or at least, it's merchandise. Making a first impression was important.

"Excuse me Sir." Or.. Ma'am? "As a member of Earth's government, let me be one of the first to say welcome to the greatest city on the planet."

If the crab has a problem with being addressed as 'sir' they don't show it. Instead they just whirl around to face her, still holding about four different objects simultaneously.

"Oh my god, is it seriously the best one? That's so lucky, this is like the only time I've been here!"

"Of course it is!" At least, it is to her, and it should be to everyone else too. "But you won't see any of that in this old crap hole."

The shop owner looks offended at the statement, but ignores it if it means this giant crab might leave his store without damaging anything. Leslie doesn't notice he's even been listening. "Come on, let me show you around!"

"Man, sweet. Yes," they say, putting down the objects they were holding and scuttling after Leslie enthusiastically. This shop owner has probably never been so relieved.

"You guys really don't mind seeing weird shit around do you?" they ask her as they leave. "I haven't seen anything like me here but nobody has even brought it up yet!"

That might be because they are too bewildered to do so, but they don't appear to realize that.
