Alpha Complex Test Drive Meme

Please feel free to take a Test Drive to see if the environment would suit your character! All potential players are welcome.

It may be your first day in Alpha Complex or your hundredth, either way, you are in serious trouble.

Scenario One
Your character has been accused of treason!

Whether the accusation is true or not, you are a wanted citizen!  Do you turn yourself over to IntSec (Internal Security) for questioning?  Do you make a run for it and go AWOL?  Will you fight for your right to exist or hole up somewhere safe until the chaos passes?  Do you become The Fugitive and try to prove your innocence?  Or are you guilty as hell and seeking help from friends or other parties who would be willing to assist you for a price? 

Beware of the security cameras everywhere - some of which actually work - and being spotted by citizens who might be willing to turn you in to gain points with The Computer or to prove their own loyalty.

Scenario Two
Your character has been given the mission to hunt down a traitor!

It is your job to hunt down and apprehend the traitor by any means necessary.  If you fail or refuse, you might be accused of being a traitor yourself.  It doesn't matter if the person you are hunting is innocent or had good reasons for their treason.  It doesn't matter if their crime was major or some minor form of treason, Friend Computer wants their head.  You have twenty four hours to complete your mission.

Please post your character name and fandom in the subject line.
Work Together. Turn On Each Other. Survive.

She should have been more specific really, but they're running for their lives. She risks a glance over at him. "Well, I know at least one isn't." It's almost fond when she says it. Saving her is totally a way to earn her friendship.

She relaxes when he says that they've lost it and even more so when he says he needs to catch his breath. In fact, she sort of slides down the wall to sit for a moment, head back. For the first time since they started running, it occurs to her that she probably looks like a crazy lady with her hair gone all curly and frizzy. She pushes it off her face and tries to twist it up into a knot on top of her head. "I'm okay with running more. In a second," she finally says just to let him know that she's not going to hold him back or whine about running.

If they weren't in such a garbage situation right now, Cisco might actually try to flirt with her after a comment like that. How could he not want to, you know? She's beautiful and she's right there, he's only a man, after all.

He looks over briefly when he hears her moving and, actually, he can't help thinking that's kind of a good idea. So he follows suit, because that's probably a better way to get to a resting heart rate faster, anyway, right?

"We're nearly there, so there is that, at least," he says between breaths, offering a weak smile. "...I'm Cisco, by the way."

[dorkify]

If they survive this, she will welcome the flirting. She's not really in the right frame of mind to think about flirting and honestly this is the first time in her entire life that she's ever been in life threatening danger. However, once she's no longer in danger, she will find Cisco incredibly good looking and hi, also sweet.

She's pretty sure there's scientific evidence about getting your heart lower than your knees or your feet or...okay, she can't remember. Life threatening danger, remember?

"I could hug you right now. I feel like I've been running since they announced my name earlier." She offers him a smile. She's breathless, but the smile is genuine none the less. "Gracie and it is really nice to meet you."

Cisco's still sort of panting for breath when the girl responds and he huffs a laugh on one of his exhales at her comment, looking straight ahead. "I mean...I wouldn't be mad," he says nonchalantly before looking back at her again and, when he does, there's a pretty clear grin on his face.

Okay well maybe he might still be trying to flirt a little. Cisco fancies himself a ladies man and she opened the door to it. How could he not?

"Nice to meet you, too, Gracie," he agrees, leaning his head back against the wall again. He's still tired, but they really should get going. With a heavy huff, Cisco suddenly pushes himself to his feet, pushing away from the wall and he turns to her, offering her a hand. "I'm still wasted tired and I'm sure you are, too, but we gotta go. Come on, we can lay around on the floor and whine like big babies about how exhausted we are and poor us in like five minutes, I promise."

[dorkify]

Oh, see. That grin is adorable and if they weren't running for their lives, Gracie would be charmed. Actually, she's charmed anyway.

She's not complaining. It's certainly a distraction from the impending doom.

When he starts to get up, she sighs and starts to get up as well, looking up to take his hand when he offers it. "I'm going to hold you too that," she tells him, ready to start running when he is.

"Good, I hope you do," Cisco says. She gets to her feet with his help and Cisco takes one more look around the corner to be sure. Still no guardbot. Here's to hoping that they've officially lost it.

Cisco takes a deep breath and lets it out in a huff as if preparing himself and then he looks back at Gracie. "Ready? Because here goes nothing." And then, giving her hand a little squeeze but without letting go of her, Cisco takes off. The sooner they get to HQ, the better.

((ooc: we can keep going to get them to HQ if you want but this could be a good ftb too, so respond if you feel so inclined or else we can call it done, up to you!))
