TEST DRIVE MEME - High School AU Musebox!

High School AU Musebox!

Test Drive Meme

Rules:
1. Post with your character. Label header with character name and canon/OC, and grade level or staff position.
2. AU them into the setting! They've always lived as a normal human, and are currently attending the high school. Or are just now attending.
3. Write a prompt for them with the AU so that others can tag you back.
4. Tag around to others, make new friends/tag with old ones, shenanigans, shipping, skipping classes, you name it! The only limitation is something not normal your imagination!
5. Have fun!

Keep in mind that:
- The principal is referred to as Principal Not-Appearing-In-This-School, because he's never around.
- This is a high school, not a college, so everyone's at school at the same time, there's usually 3-4 different lunch breaks depending on where you are in the school at lunch period.
- Threads in this test drive meme CAN be carried over as 'canon' to the musebox itself! So long as all parties involved are okay with this.
- Keep in mind the usual RP rules; IC /=/ OOC, no metagaming, no godmodding, be cool, treat your fellow players with respect.

[Amy will absolutely grab a stick! Snacks are 10x better with friends, that's just scientific fact.]

Do you go somewhere after school, usually?

[kuukai]

Usually, uh... look for food 'n' stuff. Fer my sister. [ Her cheeks go scarlet. ] My mom too. They don'... uh, they don' take care of themselves like they should.

[ If Kyouko's worn clothes didn't give the impression that she wasn't the best-off of kids before, this was another clue. ]

[amymethyst]

Oh... oh, jeez, I. [A steadying breath.]

I know it's not a long-term fix, but I could send you home with something, if you wanted?

[kuukai]

Uh...

[ She ducks her head. ] I wasn'... wasn' really askin'...

[ Shit. How is Amy going to think of her now? As somebody to be pitied, probably. Dammit. ]

[amymethyst]

[She turns away from the consoles and smiles reassuringly.]

I know. But I want to help my friend, if she wants me to. I don't have a ton of experience with it, but I'm pretty sure that's what friends do.

[kuukai]

[ She's quiet for a moment. ]

Me either.

[ She gets up from her maps and flops down next to Amy. ] I guess... I guess I wouldn' say no, then.

[amymethyst]

We can raid the fridge before you go. But first... [She hits the final button to get the game going.] We've got karts to race.

[kuukai]

[ Kyouko grabs a controller and scrolls through the characters, eventually picking Isabelle. ]

[amymethyst]

[Amy, for her part, gravitates straight to Rosalina.]

You can pick the track, since you're the guest.

[kuukai]

Wait, I haven' played all of 'em... [ She squints at the screen. ] Rainbow Road.

[amymethyst]

Straight there, huh? Works for me.

[Click! The stage loads up.]

[kuukai]

[ She grins, the challenging track opening up and the countdown beginning. A stick of Pocky goes into her mouth to help her concentration. ]

[amymethyst]

[Amy grins too, and vroom! The karts are off!]

[kuukai]

[ Kyouko falls off the track a fair bit. Besides it being one of the harder tracks, the 200cc throws her off. Each time, she frustratingly bites off her Pocky stick, takes another one, and continues racing with renewed vigor. ]

[amymethyst]

[Amy doesn't fall off the track as often, but this is a game she plays more often than DDR. Besides, she doesn't feel too bad about doing well knowing that she's gonna get trounced at DDR later.

Kyouko's determination is admirable as heck, though, dang. Respect.]

[kuukai]

[ Kyouko's competitive as hell, pulling no punches when Amy eventually laps her, smashing into her from the side. ]

[amymethyst]

[She grins.]

Hey, rude.

[She clearly doesn't mean it, though, but she does smash back.]

[kuukai]

Off my road!

[ Her grin only widens as the onscreen fight for control of the road intensifies - and then she slips off the road again. ] Shit!!

[amymethyst]

Ha-HA! My road now! [She zooms ahead - she's not sure she didn't lose first place at this point, but it doesn't really matter at this point.]

[kuukai]

Ngh... [ Kyouko slams on the accelerator to try to catch up, but she's got way too much ground to cover, and the track is slippery. She just barely misses falling off the edge again. ]

[amymethyst]

That's what you get for challenging Rosalina in space! Ha- oh dangit. [And she falls off the track. Drat.]

[kuukai]

Ya don' think Isabelle could be a moon mayor! [ And zooms past the spot where Amy fell off the track. ]

[amymethyst]

[Amy recovers, and speeds forward towards Kyouko] The moon is not a city! But if she wants the moon, Rosalina does have the rest of space I guess.

[kuukai]

[ She's still a lap behind, but Kyouko ends up pretty much neck-and-neck with her anyway. ]

All o'space? Isabelle's gonna build ships and colonize galaxies. She's practically the Queen Elizabeth of space.

[amymethyst]

Then if it must come to war... so be it. We race for the fate of all of space!

[Vroom vroom! Such intensity. Amy's basically forgotten entirely about the CPU racers at this point.]
