[meme] Test Drive

[citycouncil]

Tag into this post with characters you're thinking of apping to the game (characters who are not currently in-game or currently reserved by someone else). 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.

Also, please include the name of their canon somewhere in or on the comment or on their profile page.

You mean, apart from the obvious? Because obviously I recognise you. What I'm asking for here is an explanation for why I recognise you. And why what I recognise you from is the mirror.

[theotherdaniel]

Uh...huh. Yeah, about that. Does the word comtrya mean anything to you?

[ascendaniel]

... Uh, well, it sounds like it could be a derivation of Latin, but all I can make it mean is "adorned culprit", and that doesn't seem right somehow.

[theotherdaniel]

No, it isn't -- it isn't Latin. It's a, a greeting, mostly. One that you should...know.

I think maybe I should be the one asking you who you are.

[ascendaniel]

I'm doctor Daniel Jackson. Or... so I'm told, anyway.

[theotherdaniel]

So you're told?

[ascendaniel]

Yeeaahhh, I... have amnesia.

[theotherdaniel]

So you don't know. So that's why you -- why you wouldn't remember me. Okay. Wow, okay. What do you remember? Anything?

[ascendaniel]

I... remember a lot about my world, but not so much about me. I remember approximately when I come from, and that I know a lot about history and languages and mythology... Beyond that, it's...

Anyway, who are you? ...Are you my twin brother or something?

[theotherdaniel]

No, you don't have any, um, brothers. Or sisters. I'm...you. Kind of. Or I'm a, um, a copy of you.

...A robot copy of you.

[ascendaniel]

...Excuse me?

[theotherdaniel]

I'm guessing you don't remember the Stargate?

[ascendaniel]

I have no idea what that means, so no, I can't say that I do.

[theotherdaniel]

It's a long story. A really long story. You're kind of an...explorer of other worlds.

[ascendaniel]

Other worlds?

[theotherdaniel]

Other, uh, planets. See, there's this, this Stargate that was used by aliens millennia ago to take people from the ancient cultures of Earth and use them to seed new populations -- slave populations on other planets. I -- you were the one who...decoded it.

[ascendaniel]

All right. Now I know I've had some kind of severe mental breakdown.

[theotherdaniel]

Look, I know what it sounds like but you're just going to have to trust me on this, trust the evidence in front of you. I'm here talking to you. That's got to be possible somehow, right?

[ascendaniel]

Except if I have had a breakdown, then there's no way I can trust the evidence of my own eyes, is there? You may be a hallucination, a delusion.

I mean, frankly, given my recent history, that's a far more logical conclusion than that what you're telling me is actually true.

[Except also given his recent history, the idea that it's true is not actually as far-fetched as it seems.]

[theotherdaniel]

I have to admit, that'd be news to me. Look, I -- if you're hallucinating me, why don't I look like you? Why don't I have your haircut?

[ascendaniel]

I don't know, why don't you? Aren't you supposed to be a replica?
