Test Drive #1

[pathemamods]

ARRIVAL: Your character wakes up in a temple completely naked except for the collar around their neck. Near the spot they wake up is a pile of clothing that is NOT what your character was wearing before they woke up. When they unfold the clothing they will find it's a toga and that there's a pair of sandals under it. Too bad, that's all there is. Perhaps your character is curious and leaves the temple or maybe they activate their device (accidentally or on purpose).

TOGA PARTY: Eros thinks that a party is what's needed to welcome everyone! This event is held on the beach in the Second District and everyone is welcome! Just be sure to wear your toga (HAHA)! There are large silk tents that are filled with pillows for characters to lounge on. There's food (think Greek) and lots to drink! Eros wants everyone to have fun and get to know each other! So eat, drink and mingle!!

NETWORK:Everyone is provided with a communication device that gives them access to an island-wide network. These can be used for so many things! Send pictures of the drunk guy at the bar, your boobs or whatever you want!!

WILDCARD: There are forests, mountains, marketplaces, all sorts of places to go and explore on the island. Ideas for settings can be found on the locations pages!



**TDM threads can be used as your sample in your application! It can also be considered in game canon if it is agreed on by all characters involved in said threads.

"You're right, I can't."

Even the idea is abhorrent. He can't do that to her; he can't do that to anyone.

The reminder of his own history stings; Logan drops his head and sucks in a slow, stilling breath, feeling his temper flare. "You're right. Look, Storm I am the absolute last guy who should ever talk anyone off the edge of a cliff. I fucking suck at it. That's why I'm asking."

He looks up, his jaw set. "Please don't let yourself die for this. How many more people do you think this sick fuck is going to drop off here? What if the next batch has the rest of the school? I can't just shuffle off and get strangled, 'Ro, not if there's anything I can do to stop-" A wide gesture now, "-this. And... and I can't do this without you."

It's Ororo's turn to take a couple of steadying breaths here, locking her rage back up behind the sleek, shiny walls she has built around herself to keep her emotions from causing too much damage.

She lifts a hand to place it on Logan's arm, fingers curling around his wrist so that she can feel the beat of his heart against her skin, grounding her in the here and now.

As much as her entire being is still recoiling from what is happening here, he does make one point in particular that hits her right in her biggest sore spot:

What if the others end up here? What if any of the students do? She has to be here for them if that happens.

"You're right, too. What if, goddess forbid, any of the students end up here?"

She has to be here to figure out how to kill a god if that happens.

She can't just go off and die. She can't force Logan to watch it happen.

"I can't just leave you behind here."

Well, she can, but...

"I won't."

[9601]

Logan releases the breath he's been holding, turning his wrist to take her hand, giving it a squeeze. Whew.

"We'll be here if anyone else shows up. And in the meantime we can figure out how to put this Eros asshole down."

He gives her a rather searching look, hesitant. "And... 'Ro?"

[nimbi]

She actually feels a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth, and she nods a little in agreement. This "god" is going down.

"Yeah?"

[9601]

"Thanks."

And then, well, he brings his other hand up to her face, carding his fingers through her white hair, and leans in to kiss her. It's slow, intimately familiar, grateful in a way he's usually terrible at expressing in words. Eight years on the run together and all the peace in the world couldn't shake old routines.

[nimbi]

Kissing Logan is not a familiar thing to her, but something about it still feels that way. Like it is a perfectly natural extension of everything they have been to each other, everything they've gone through.

It would be the easiest thing in the world to stop it from happening, but she doesn't. Instead, she kisses him back, accepting his gratitude and offering some of her own.
