Summer Test Drive! (Calibrations edition!)

[thespaceopera]

THE SUMMER TEST DRIVE MEME
(Or Winter Test Drive for you Southern Hemisphere folks!)

Got someone you want to try out before you app? Well this is the post for it! Feel free to use anything that fits in the setting of Drift Fleet! Want to play bumper shuttles? Want to go wild in a med bay? Play around with the current plot? Have at it!

Threads from the Test-Drive may be made game "canon" but DO NOT count toward AC!

FOR NEW PLAYERS: You DO NOT NEED an invite to participate in the TEST DRIVE! If you decide to APP into the game, ONLY THEN will you need an invite from a current player!

SPECIAL NOTE!
Since June is a special month in which we'll be breaking from the usual plot to bring back the calibrations plot, the Test Drive prompts will come in two flavors!

OPTION A: Standard Test Drive
Go ahead and treat the test drive as you normally would, using past plots or fleet locations as your setting! Here's some helpful info for some ideas.

April/May's Star System

March's Star System

Game Details

SS Iskaulit

OPTION B: Build-a-Calibration
If you'd like, you can use the info given about the Calibrations plot to design your own calibration room for any characters you want! Got a character you want to explore their inner psyche but isn't in the game yet? Go ahead and try it out! It can be a fully fleshed out room, or simply just a small part of it you'd like to play with.

Alternatively for any characters that are in the game, you can use this as a chance to either iron out, brainstorm, or test run any components of your calibration before the actual plot starts! We don't recommend posting the entirety of your calibration in this meme (as you'll have nothing new to post come plot time), but this can be a good chance to test out any parts to make sure they work how you desire.

Test drives are posted SEASONALLY, so the next one will be in September!

If it's a green light from you, then I guess I do. [so like, if he kissed her, would she hate him forever or]

[asphodels]

Good! I think you might know her. [ Her hands squeeze his gently. ] But I think we'll work well together.

[moseyin]

[If we work well together, then why did you run off?

Cloud's definitely not gonna ask that, mostly because he's very afraid the answer will be something along the lines of, to protect you. Aerith's like that, always throwing herself down onto the altar to save everyone but herself...literally.

Cloud squeezes her hands again, the smile slipping off his face.]

Aerith...are you sure you're okay?

[asphodels]

Me? Hm...

[ She tilts her head, touching her jaw with her finger before she turns her attention back to Cloud. is she okay? She knows she's happy, that's a definite, and the warmth that burns inside her is real and thick, heavy with her joy and the intensity of all the sudden emotions, but... She thinks she might be sad, too.

This might be all they'll ever have, whatever this strange world is. She doesn't want to go back to being without Cloud, even if she's always with him. ]

I'm okay!
