April Test Drive Meme
Test Drive Meme
A quick rundown
Welcome to the S.S. Panic's Test Drive Meme! Here, you can post a top level post and/or respond to other characters in a variety of situations! As you will find if you glance at the map, the ship is a spider-shaped city that is essentially self-sustaining. It's powered by the Infinite Improbability Drive, which when in use allows for the improbable (and impossible!) to happen and become, well, possible!
Below, you will find an example of what a typical monthly job post will look like. To encourage tagging each other, characters who apply to the game after this test drive meme will earn 100 credits per tag they give to someone else. Considering that new refugees are only given a small amount of money to get them started (around 500 credits), this could be huge!
Normally, job posts (currently empty) will be posted on the last day of the month. Characters can begin working the jobs they sign up for on the 1st of the next month. These jobs will be posted early for the Test Drive Meme and can be considered the official jobs of the month.
For now, all jobs will be the lowest paying jobs at Level 5. As the months go on, Level 4, 3, 2 and 1 jobs will be added appropriately. All characters will begin at Level 5 except in very special, rare situations. Keep in mind that some jobs will remain a constant in job postings (Education, for example) while others will change monthly. Also, players may hire other characters themselves in the future through hiring page. Ordinarily, some jobs will have limited slots, but for the purposes of the Test Drive Meme, all jobs come equipped with unlimited slots.
Finally, if you choose to, you can make whatever happens during the Test Drive Meme game canon if you apply and you are accepted into the game. However, this is not required and if you don't want it to be canon but the players of your character's new CR do and vice versa, this is space with wormholes and the IID. Multiple instances of your character is possible, at least for this month.
If you have questions about how the game works, you can look at the gameplay page or post a question to the FAQ page. Remember, you don't have to post your character doing a job. You can have them arguing about the Babelfish, going shopping, having a fist fight with an alien, etc. The important thing is to have fun!

Brittany Susan Pierce | Glee*
[Brittany looked...lost.]
[Of course, that tended to be a natural state for her, so anybody who knew her would just assume she was her usual self. For anyone not yet made aware, however, the teenaged girl would be quite the sight. She'd already rejected the babelfish initially offered to her, claiming it would totally clash with the one already inside her head--(clearly, the officers hadn't been expecting that answer, and were left too stunned to do more than watch her wander off)--and was currently gripping a rather...uniquely designed, freshly laundered towel in hand.]
[Not too long after making her initial statement, however, she caught a glimpse out of a nearby window, and saw stars.]
...okay, I take it back.
[Except...and she was way more sure of this part...she was so not on the S.S. Thor anymore. She knew that, because she'd already gotten lost on that ship in every conceivable way possible. Twice. This placed looked absolutely nothing like any of those random hallways. Which could only mean one thing:]
Wait.
Am I finally going to get to sleep in a bedroom with a door?
((ooc notes: Brittany comes from the very end of Season 1, but--as I was told it would be okay for now for the TD--with several years' worth of gargleblasted memories as well. Because memories and nostalgia and...most importantly...shenanigans.))
Because you knew this was coming
First and foremost, while searching for his team, he would make sure to memorize the layout of this new ship. He started walking around making mental notes here and there until he noticed a familiar person. No, but that couldn't be.... ]
Brittany?
I did and there are no regrets
[Brittany had always been pretty good at three things: fashion, cats, singing, and dancing. But voices were close enough to the singing part that it wasn't hard for her to recognize one, even if it had been, like years since she'd last heard him.]
[...well, okay, it hadn't been years. Months, at most, maybe, but it certain had felt like years.]
[So much so that, when she first turned towards the sound, her eyes were wide and mouth slightly open in a partial disbelief.]
Kal?
[She let out a half-laugh, half exclamation. Wanting to smile but kind of a little afraid. So, before she said anything, she closed the distance between them in the span of a few seconds and...reached out with a single finger to poke him. In one of his well-defined biceps she'd missed so much. Specifically on the area where she knew his tattoos would glow if and when he ever activated them again, kind of so hoping he would because she loved the way he looked when--]
[Oh, but that wasn't the point, was it? The point was, her finger actually his solid (very solid) flesh!]
Oh my gosh, you are real!
<3!
I am relieved to see you are doing well, and it seems you answered my question too.
no subject
This totally makes up for getting re-kidnapped by aliens again!
[A few seconds later, still holding pretty tightly, his words caught up to her and she pulled back just enough to look him in the eye curiously.]
What question?
no subject
Brittany, you're stuck here too now?
[Be careful, he's going to hug her.]
no subject
Sho! [Aand there it is, running over to the skinny Japanese guy and unabashedly throwing her arms around him.] Ugh, I'm so happy you're lost with me.
This is only slightly more confusing than that time Rikku and I took those Viagra pills.
[...but only slightly.]
no subject
I'm so happy that you're lost with me too. It makes it so much easier to figure out how to get unlost with a friend.
no subject
Really? [...are you sure you're talking about the right friend here?] 'cause I don't usually figure out how to get unlost. I just accidentally end up somewhere I recognize. You know. Eventually.
no subject
But what's more important, a room with a door or a room with a floor?
no subject
[Oh gosh it was just like being back home with the Cheerios!]
Uh, duh? [As if the answer should have been obvious.] The door. I've always been able to trust the doors on the Thor, like, most of the time, but you could never trust a floor.
It might be lava, you know.
no subject
[ She nods along to Brittany's words. Probably one of the first people who seemed to think this girl was very logical. ]
Not to mention, doors can lead you all kids of places. Even places that aren't places.
no subject
Not always.
Sometimes, they don't lead anywhere at all. Which is totally the worst, because how are you supposed to figure out where you are when you're not anywhere?
no subject
no subject
Which is why I'd prefer it over the floor. And besides, if you're not walking on any floor...that totally means you must be flying, right?
[Perfect sense, right there.]
no subject
no subject
I hate it when the hallway explodes. Everything gets so messy. And it usually ruins my hair.
no subject
[She giggles. ]
no subject
Why?
no subject
no subject
There's too much yelling. And sometimes people are naked, but not in the fun way.
[Or maybe that was just the people she surrounded herself with.]
no subject
no subject
[
For cocoa puffs?]Like the clock?
no subject
no subject
Don't you think that's being a little clock-ist?
