MEME: Test Drive

[girlalmighty]

The 15th of every month from here on out will bring about our Test Drive meme.

Tag into this post with characters you're thinking of apping to the game (please include the name of their canon somewhere in or on the comment or on their profile page). It can be just a tag, a brief EP, whatever you want. You can be new to the game, or simply want to test out a fresh pup. Tag each other with these characters or those already in game, and have fun.

And it's not me either.

[ she calls back, voice loud, practiced and foolish in its audacity. really, though. she's not really the one he's concerned about. at least, no more than she can serve as a reflection in the mirror. god, she wishes she had better heels for stomping down the sidewalk. ]

Yes, we all know that I care chiefly about myself. Just ... don't go pulling the tails of any tigers.

[ no, it's a lack of civility for them, after all. but at least this is an uncivil truth. he whirls himself, fists clenched at his sides, to go the opposite direction. they'll be called together again if destiny requires, for good or ill. ]

[ no one's going to mind if she short-circuits a few streetlights as she walks, right? aside from the people who shriek as each pops, but. she's being discreet. for her. ]
