the test drive meme

It's a new day in The World, and a special quest is abound. But wait, the players cry! The game isn't open yet! Shush you, the GMs warned. This is only a test drive meme. The game is simple. You've woken up in a lush field of grass, soft to the touch and a little damp with dew. Spring has reached The World, and there's a randomized checklist in your hand. Your goal is to catch five of the Lucky Animals bounding about, and it's perfectly fine to work together. In fact, we encourage it! Collect them all and deposit them in a pen where the GMs await. There's plenty for everyone, but they will be watching closely for cheaters. Any items won in this pre-game minigame will carry over once holyrelic opens, so get your limited edition item set today! Magnificent prizes await you, so go forth! Just beware; some of the Lucky Animals aren't really so lucky and have their own side effects. (All participants who apply will receive a mochi hat of the player's choosing. They can be either small (think mini tophats) or large (like a harvest cleric's hat) and any of the three colors, with any variety of accessories. All participants who finish the quest will earn a spring-themed beginner item set! It will include one weapon and a bonus item set with five restoratives, five randomized buff spells, and five randomized food items.)

sob sorry I should read things I type before I comment

[Man this guy is like the polar opposite of Shadow. Yuuta's kind of amused by that.]

Maybe I can help you get another one then! To make up.

no worries, bro

[greaterspeed]

[more like Shadow's the polar opposite of him. FAKER FAKER FAKER /maturity at it's all time high]

How 'bout we work together? It'll be easier to corner these guys if it's two of us. [he looks up, then shakes his head] This is probably what Eggman feels like whenever he's trying to round up whatever critter of the day he's after. No longer sure if want....

[isolates]

[Yuuta wrinkles his nose. Eggman? That's weird name, why would anyone call themself that.

He nods in agreement though.]

Yep. I've got a few tricks that might help too.

[greaterspeed]

All right, all right. Kinda bummed out that Shad never told me 'bout this crazy place but! There's nothing quite like the super power of teamwork, so lead the way.

[isolates]

[Forget about polar opposites, this guy talks funny too. But no matter, lead the way he does in search of another animal to catch.]

So, you know Shadow? But not from the World?

[greaterspeed]

Well, yeah. He's from my world, since this clearly isn't it. We lookalike, right? S'caused a few problems for both of us a while back.

Wooo boy was that a crazy story for the press.

[a little distance away is a Ganesha, taking a peaceful stroll through the field...]

[isolates]

Really? Huh.

[But before Yuuta can think of a reply to the strange things Sonic is saying, the Ganesha catches his attention.]

Behind you!

[greaterspeed]

Hm? [turns-]

Oh.

...

OH!

AFTER IT!

[isolates]

Yes sir.

[Yuuta takes the time to offer his slightly sarcastic reply before he chases after the Ganesha.]

[greaterspeed]

[the sarcastic reply doesn't even phase Sonic. Instead, he starts after the little elephant which had started to run once it realized it had been noticed.

... Was it even suppose to be possibly for someone to drift without wheels? Well, have Sonic drifting hahaha references around a corner and cutting the Ganesha's (original) escape route]

90 degree turns?! Not fair!

[and off it goes again]

[isolates]

[Sonic just continues to confuse Yuuta even more. What is he even doing. Whatever. Yuuta changes his course when he notices the Ganesha turn away from Sonic in an effort to block it from the front.]

Let's try to trap it!

[greaterspeed]

[DRIFTING TO GET AROUND CORNERS because he's run straight off of them too many times to count already. doesn't this madness just make you miss Shadow? *sigh*]

Roger!

[Sonic stays behind the Ganesha to try and keep it from changing directions again so that Yuuta could catch it. This would be have been a cinch if he had some rings on him!!]

[isolates]

[Yuuta aims for the Ganesha, mimicking it when it tries to weave back and forth to that he's constantly in front of it. When he thinks the distance is small enough, he makes a leap at it.]

[greaterspeed]

[and there's nothing quite like teamwork. Flustered and at a loss, the Ganesha doesn't move in time to escape the leap Yuuta makes at it]

Wow, nice catch! [in all his Engrish glory yesssss I mean, Sonic jogs over to give the kid a thumbs up. Shadow would never give people that kind of praise...]

[isolates]

[Okay maybe the friendliness is okay but he's still kind of weird...]

Thanks.

[Yuuta grins and holds the critter out towards Sonic.]

There, one replacement Lucky Animal for the one I made you lose.

[greaterspeed]

[Sonic gives Yuuta a thumbs up before taking the Ganesha off Yuuta's hands]

All right! If you ever need a hand with something, feel free to give me a shout.

[isolates]

Yeah, I'll do that.

Oh! By the way, we should exchange member addresses.

[greaterspeed]

... Member addresses?

[isolates]

So we can contact each other on these things. [He pulls out his relic and waves it a bit for emphasis.]
