TEST DRIVE MEME Welcome to the Test Drive Meme! Whether you're considering joining paradisa for the first time or you just want to test out a new muse, this is the place to do it. Only character journals allowed, please! Feel free to have your character roam any of the castle's rooms, grounds locations, or City Royale. Thanks for your interest, and have fun! Premise: You wake up in a giant, magical castle. Everything is beautiful and the castle grants material wishes. It also provides a magic journal to every resident that allows everyone to communicate with each other like a two-way radio.

[Alexis snaps her head towards the sound of the voice, taking in the woman speaking to her.]

I've seen books. I've just never seen so many in one place.

[She's not sure if the woman is trying to be rude or sarcastic or if she's asking a genuine question. Alexis is on her guard. So far nobody here has been helpful.]

[Tess notes the girl's guardedness; she's made a career out of working people, and having a good people-sense is crucial to it. As a result, Tess looks over Alexis almost analytically, like she's sizing her up for a fight, but she's just a little girl. Tess doesn't worry about little girls, even if she was a little girl once, too.

Now she's a middle-aged woman, and an accomplished crime lord. Little girls on their guard in the library stacks are nothing.

Tess used to like putting people on edge around her. These days, it just makes her feel transparent, too obviously rough around the edges, too prone to aggression. ]

Too much time on the internet and not enough time in the local library, huh?
