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

Home videos? You'd best be careful, those might turn out to be just as horrifying to sit through as the others.

Do you want to find killer clowns? [because like. Chip will have to politely decline, and instead taps one of the reels]

This one looks promising - '5th Vacation'. Maybe we can learn about the people who were here before?

[and that he means Josh can you please help him lift and load this because he is a smol]

[lusito]

I suppose it's worth giving a look.

[There's a beat here as he does nothing to help Chip--after all, the heroic little detective can surely get this on his own, can't he?

But after a full minute of watching the struggling smol, he'll then take pity on the chipmunk and take the film reel so that it can be loaded into the projector for them to view. You sure are lucky that you have such a nice guy here to help you out...]

[nocasetoobig]

[HE'S DOING HIS BEST, JOSH, DON'T PATRONIZE HIM. It's not like he's managed human things before, but they're...human sized. As opposed to sensibly sized, like him. In fact, he might almost just get it-

-okay no he dropped it. With a 'whup', Chip goes to climb down to the floor, only for Joshua to pick it up. Though tempted to say something on Josh's sense of timing, he doesn't, instead trying to help work the projector and get it started]

[lusito]

[Thanks Chip, it's a good thing you're here to do the work for us.]

Now to see if it'll give us any clues... and if not, hopefully the worst we see are just a few tacky vacation slides in comparison to the other reels.

[nocasetoobig]

[someone's gotta wear the adult pants here. even if he doesn't...wear...pants...]

Maybe we can still learn about the kind of people who came here. That's a clue, right?
