Summer Test Drive Meme!

Welcome to the Current Test Drive for The Revival Project!

This game is a spin-off from the closed The Drift Fleet game. For more information about the game, including more details on the setting, please check out the FAQ here or the premise here.

A thread on the TDM will be required for all applications. Please view the FAQ for information about how this works. Any questions about the game please direct to the comment section of the FAQ as well.

If you are a Drift Fleet alumni bringing your character from the game, please label your character as 'DFAU' on your top level. Also, keep in mind you have complete flexibility on how your character comes here. They could be taken before endgame, after endgame, two years after, one year before, etc. It's up to you! If you want to completely restart your character, they're not considered DFAU anymore and won't need the label.

So go! Explore Agra 10! And, as always, HAVE FUN!

Thread ideas:

- Explore the city! There's a map here and a bit more description of some of the buildings here. Most of the buildings are run down and have clearly been abandoned for years; fortunately, the water treatment center appears to be working, but power is intermittent and unreliable. The hotel seems to be the most crowded, but you might want into what appears to be an abandoned storefront and find someone else scavenging or even sleeping.

- There are spaceships! That's right, there are currently several small spaceships grounded in the hangar. They appear to have power, but only one ship will let you enter. (For test drive purposes, the ship that will let you enter is up to you, so just pick whichever name appeals, and go for it!) The other ships won't open for you, but it might be worth poking around the one that will...

- Do you hear a storm? A giant, power-altering storm has been ravaging part of the planet for a month. It shows ghosts of people you know and those you don't. It drains you of any super-human abilities and tries its best to keep you from getting to its origin. Are you going to try anyways? Or are you going to chase the whispers of people from your past? More information can be found here.

- Can you hear me now? Upon arrival, your character will have on their person a small, handheld communications device. Maybe they know exactly how to use a computer, smartphone, or tablet, and immediately blast out a text or video trying to figure out what's going on. Or maybe they're not so tech-savvy after all, and everyone is about to get a lovely shot right up your character's left nostril.

- Wildcard! You're welcome to use any previous test drive scenarios or previous game events as a basis for a thread/situation, or simply make up your own! Keep in mind that you're currently stranded on a planet with only basic necessities, but there is enough food and fresh water. Creature comforts, however, seem to be distinctly lacking...

No. Not you.

[ loki presses their foreheads together, a quiet sigh. ]

[sinistral]

Not to you.

[For a long moment he stays there, pressed together, close enough to feel the quiet puff of each other’s breath.]

We will tear down this cage piece by piece, show them why they never should have messed with us.

[dothelokimotion]

[ a dry chuckle. ]

You're truly furious, aren't you.

[sinistral]

Did you doubt it?

[dothelokimotion]

Not doubt. Awed.

[sinistral]

Too many would appeal to what they call a "better nature" and tell me that striking against our captors is wrong, because surely they must have a reason. I've no use for fools.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki can't help chuckling at that. ]

You've really been having a difficult time here.

[sinistral]

I know it shouldn't surprise me. Haven't we both professed to operating outside what others consider normal? But that doesn't mean it doesn't wear against my nerves every single day.

[dothelokimotion]

We will make it out.

We have done it before. We shall do so again.

[sinistral]

The strange thing is, those who brought us here claim an apparent familiarity with the Fleet. And yet, with that knowledge of what it would mean to us, they bring us here anyway.

They deserve everything we will unleash against them.

[dothelokimotion]

Mmm.

[ loki reaches out to brush his fingers against bucky's cheek. ]

It'll be all right.

[sinistral]

When you say it, how could I not believe?

[He leans into the hand for a moment before tugging it away from his face to twine their fingers together and give a small tug.]

I fully intend to get properly reacquainted once we have a little privacy. It's just through here.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki can't help the shiver. ]

Oh? That sounds pleasant.
