Round 1: Pre-Awakening AUs, Personas and Tarots, Lets Plan!

[cordibus]

In order to do a little bit of planning before the test drive appears, we've made this post for a very quick round of pre-drive planning. Post the characters that you are interesting in trying out and ask for advice or suggest, or even try to look/entice for castmates! Suggest pre-made AUs where someone from cross canon has been living with you for a while, so when you begin the test proper tomorrow you'll have an idea of what you want to do!

The city of Eddan is like a typical metropolis, your characters can have any job that would make sense in a busy city. They don't have to be restricted to the school, or have a school job.

As the test drive begins, you are free to continue using this post to plan or ask the mods test-drive related questions. We'll do our best to answer in a timely manner! If you're not sure, don't be shy about asking. There's a lot of freedom!

You can also request to roll for a Persona. You can find information about Persona and the Awakening here. Ask for as many test drive characters you have if you'd like!

If you want to assign your character a tarot card for test drive purposes, you're free to pick whatever you think fits best. Your character's actual Arcana will be assigned after being accepted.

Let's begin! And remember, the test drive will is Already In Progress

....I was completely expecting no other KHRs to pop up here but consider me super pleasantly surprised and delighted.

Permission to friend you even if neither of us end up in the game together?

Surprise! :D But haha, honestly, I've always wanted to play him because he's for the most part a really strong muse - I just never got around to actually playing him. So hopefully this is the game where I get to do that.

And absolutely!! :> <3

Shameless plug that if this doesn't work out, I'm in a game with a tiny KHR cast, SO.... U KNO....

But really, for this, I think it'd be interesting if these two had a decent relationship Pre-Awakening in contrast to the mildly antagonistic/nonexistent one in canon. Chikusa will even be a regular nerd with good grades and a normal family that he may or may not be living away from before he remembers all the fucked up things.

I MIGHT be tempted to do that, actually. I shall keep that in mind!

But I'd love that, actually! I'm still super rusty with canon things, as it's been a year or so since I've last looked at the manga (so gonna marathon it real quick starting tomorrow, most likely). But I can definitely see Yamamoto budding up with Chikusa for sure. :> Maybe even dragging him to baseball games/generally hang out on occasion.

SO THE MEMORY THING is gonna be weird when it happens, but you know.

Future thread, probably:

> Chikusa: ....Didn't I make a half assed attempt at killing you once
> Yamamoto: lol it's fine!! :D :D :D
> Chikusa: ....*Are you sure*

But yeah, drag this nerd to some sort of social event and, in return, he'll help your grades not be a lost cause, Yamamoto.

Their friendship is going to be amazing.

ALSO WOW LITERALLY THE GREATEST FRIEND HE COULD EVER ASK FOR. you are saving his career in baseball - or at the very least keeping his coach happy. Not that it won't stop him from doing that stuff anyway, if Chikusa didn't, but STILL. :D
