FOOLISH MORTALS R2 TEST DRIVE MEME

[grimgrinningghosts]

Hello again, you foolish mortals. Since we are not having a mock trial for R2, we decided to have another test drive to help ring in the occasion!  Especially since many of you have multiple options for the upcoming rounds.  Much like last time, this test drive will remain open until the game itself opens in October.

Foolish Mortals is, of course, open to Disney characters only - and the same rules apply here. Characters who don't fit this criteria may find themselves being removed from the test drive, for consistency purposes. If you have any questions, please feel free to consult our FAQ here. Please list your character's name (canon also recommended) in the header of your top-level prompt.

Here are some examples to get you started:

1 - Waking Up
You find yourself awoken in a dreary little bed that creaks and squeaks far too much for your liking. The room is run-down and decrepit, and cobwebs practically coat the particularly tacky wallpaper. It's...unnerving, to say the least, and you should probably get out of there. Sadly, it doesn't look like the rest of the hotel is any cleaner, but...perhaps you'll find others in similar circumstances?

2 - Killing Time
If we must kill something, it might as well be your boredom. It doesn't seem, however, that the hotel has quite a lot to offer in the way of entertainment. There's an old projector with creepy early-to-mid-century movies, a bar, a (rather eerie) library, a steam room, and a treasure room.  Something feels... off about the last room, however, like you're being watched.

3 - Happy Haunts
There's...stillness in the air. Occasionally, you might notice some sort of unexplainable oddity. A piano might begin to play itself in your presence, or dishes and silverware might reaarange themselves when you're not looking. The eyes on portraits might even follow you around, until you notice them. Perhaps it's worth investigation, or perhaps you're better off just screaming and running away. Your call.

4 - Party!
The Hollywood Tower Hotel, before its sudden closure, was famous for its parties.  So perhaps it's unsurprising that everyone is called to the Tip Top Club for a mandatory party...on Thursday night. You should throw on your best formal attire, and try to have a good time. It should be mentioned, of course, that the motive this week appears to be getting on everyone's nerves. It doesn't really help matters that it'd be so easy to take someone out if you just flipped the lights off...have fun. 

5 - Body Discovery
Despite your best efforts, someone has died on this fateful Friday.  While no one was especially close to him, it appears that Cinderella's father is dead, and one of you is responsible. Better investigate the mansion for clues, and hope you don't mess this up...

6 - Et Cetera, Et Cetera, Et Cetera
For all the prompts you want to do but we haven't listed.

Keep in mind that posting in the test drive does not represent a commitment to join our game. You're welcome to play here even if you can't app. Playing here does not guarantee a slot in the game, nor does it count as a reserve. However, you're welcome to use up to 20 comments here from your character on the test drive should you app them later, in lieu of a sample.

Remember, reserves for the game will be opening on September 22nd

[ She wrinkles her nose, disgusted but also amused. ]

All you, big boy.

[ Ursula likes her meals a little more meaty. Would you look at this one go, though? He's got all the table manners and tastes of a shark.

But if no one's there to reprimand Stitch for devouring the evidence, then no one is going to get in the way of Ursula going through the man's pockets, first tapping at them with her tentacles before leaning down with her more dextrous fingers. ]

[ohanas]

[ stitch shrugs and puts the shoe back into his mouth. more for him!

but while he's chewing on the shoe what ursula is doing also catches his attention. so with the shoe hanging from his mouth still he'll crawl over and take a look.

what do you got there ursula ]

[anasty]

[ It's a... Ursula frowns. She has no idea what this thing is, but it's soft. Giving it a little squeeze unleashes a little sprinkle of what looks to her like little green grains.

Unimpressed, she tosses it towards Stitch to see if he can make anything more amusing of it. It jingles cheerily. ]

[ohanas]

[ stitch catches it and examines it himself. he has no idea what the green grains are but-- oh.

it jingles.

shake shake jingle jingle. more of the little green grains seem to be sprinkling out but stitch is having so much fun shaking the thing he hasn't noticed. ]

[anasty]

[ Watching Stitch play with it, Ursula comes to a conclusion about what the object must be: a toy for simpletons.

But of course, being the ocean equivalent of a cat lady, it brings her some simple joy to observe this ugly little thing go at it. She awaits her moment, then attempts to lazily bat it away from Stitch with a tentacle. ]

Not as appetizing as footwear, hm?

[ Ursula, that's evidence... ]

[ohanas]

[ stitch continues to shake it before ursula bats it away. he watches it fly out of his hand and turns right to her. ]

Hey! Mockeecha!

[ that was his? you gave it to him? but then he notices the green grains and tilts his head. ]

Ooh?

[ he scrapes up the grains and sniffs it before giving it a strange look. then holds his hand out to ursula. this green grain stuff seems suspicious?? ]
