THE TEST-DRIVE MEME

1. Using a journal of a character you've considered apping at DDD, post a comment as if they're already in the game! It can be a voice post, video or text post; it can either be an intro or a "been there a while" sort of deal. Anything goes!
2. Tag around with others - potential characters or characters who are already in the game - to see how well they fit.
3. app them Get a better idea of how well they'd work out at DDD, and app or not app accordingly!

[This is gonna be a convo so...he pours himself a small shot of bourbon.]

A detective, right?

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

Not exactly. I'm an insurance claims investigator.


[But he'll later be a P.I. for the District Attorney's office.]

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

Ha, so you're a detective no one wants on their case?

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

[He laughs.]

Yeah, that about sums it up.

I'm Jack Kelso.

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

Eddie Valiant.

[He raises the empty shot glass in place of a handshake.]

Nice to meet you, Kelso.

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

You too. At least you seem to dress properly.

Some people around here are... well, they say they're from the future.

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

Ya know, you're the first person that ever said that to me.

[His eyes widen in surprise and slight disbelief.]

The future? ...they aren't crazy, are they?

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

It might not be the best suit in the world but at least it's something familiar.

As crazy as talking mice.

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

[chuckles.]

Now that sounds a lot bettah.

Trust me kid, the mouse is the sanest one around here.

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

That's possible.

What year are you in?

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

It's nineteen forty-three. Been a calm year after the last one; but eh same old, same old.

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

So you're in the past... I'm in 1947.

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

[Low whistle.]

Alright, that's something I haven't run into before.

Who won the Series this year?

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

Isn't that cheating?

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

Not really. I don't plan to do anything with it; just don't trust my luck to actually catch the game.

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

I didn't see the game myself, just a highlights reel they shipped over to us. The Yankees won, by the way.

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

Damn.

Ah well, least I know not ta head over to the bar that night. If the Yankees win, it'll be a riot here in Burbank.

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

Just don't do any illegal betting.

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

Trust me, people would notice something was up if I started gamblin' with anything.

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

Oh? You've had a problem in the past? Or you've just never done it?

[used2btoonpi.livejournal.com]

Never done it. I don't have the kinda luck for it.

[jack-kelso.livejournal.com]

Probably wise not to start. Even on a sure thing.
