THE TEST DRIVE MEME

1. Using a journal of a character you've considered apping at C&C, post a comment as if they're already in the game!
2. Tag around with others- potential characters or characters who are already in the game- to see how well they fit.
3. Get a better idea of how well they'd work out at C&C, and app or not app accordingly! ~~app them. app them now.~~

The rate of inflation here is absurd, but it can't be helped.

[a beat, and then, dryly:] Something to look forward to.

To look forward to?...

Are you from the past like me? That sounds absurd.

It would seem so.

Nineteen thirty-two, in my case.

Wow, mister, that's my year too!

[...Huh.]

An interesting coincidence.

D'you think New York will really be like this in the future? They say New York is what this place really is, even though they don't call it that.

I'm not convinced.

Why not?

There are places I know from my New York that don't exist here.

Eighty years is a long time, but still, it's unreasonable to suppose that all of them would have been demolished in that time.

Yeah, a really long time. I wonder if I'll even still be alive.

Can I ask what places you're thinking of, mister?

The apartment building where I live. My brother's house. Businesses that my family owns. A bookstore that I've been to many times. Alveare, a store that sells honey.

The buildings, at least, should still be there.

...I checked to see if Alveare was there, too.

[There's a moment of silent consideration on Luck's end.]

...What's your name?

...Czeslaw...Meyer.

Who are you?

Luck Gandor.

One of the Gandor brothers. That's interesting.

[Luck's reply comes slowly. Thoughtful.]

Meyer... [Where has he heard that name. Oh, yes.] An acquaintance of Maiza Avaro's?

I didn't think he would have mentioned me.

I heard something from Firo about it.

You know Firo?

Since we were children.

Oh.

I apologize for my tone earlier. It was pretty demanding.

Was it? [He says, dismissively. He's willing to give Czeslaw some leeway here.] Fortunately, I'm not easily offended.

No?

I don't guess you've seen Firo or Ennis around since you've been here?

I'm sorry to say that I haven't. This place would be more tolerable with a few familiar faces around.
