Testrun meme
Presenting the test run meme for characters that want to get into SRWU. How does it actually work?
-Following is a list of prompts that your character can respond to. The prompts are described to some extent but there is intentional vagueness so you can fill in the details yourself. Make sure to describe those details in your response. Make sure to also include the number of the prompt you're responding to!
-After you post your response (a top-level entry), other players can respond to it with their own characters. This creates a thread where the two of you continue to interact with each other.
-There can be more than one response per a top-level entry, thus creating several independent threads that originate from one tag. Please don't interject into other peoples' threads that are already running without making sure they're fine with it first!
-There is no need to register or join any communities in order to respond to this meme. Just pick a character you want to use and post away.
-Participation is not obligatory for characters that want to get into SRWU. Participating can be helpful though because threads your character participates in can count for the app's "sample post" requirement.
List of prompts:
[1]
You just joined Unity Group and received accomodation at one of its bases. The question is, what will you do next? Look around for your room? Go to the hangar to make sure your mecha is alright? Say hello to other pilots who are already around? Greet everyone more officially through a disciplined military-like broadcast? Or perhaps something else altogether?
[2]
Using the Time-Space Extension Nexus... or teleporters, as many people unofficially but not inaccurately call it. You enter the Nexus room, there is a slight tingling sensation and just a second later, you leave at a different location - in another of Unity Group's base! Was it the first time for you to use this unusual, marvelous technology? Or are you already used to it?
[3]
Victory! Something good just happened, for you or for the group as a whole. A difficult mission was successful, a troublesome enemy defeated, perhaps the victory was political in nature, or maybe you received an upgrade for your machine. Either way, it's something to feel good about - so describe what it was and how you celebrate.
[4]
Bad times are upon us. A new powerful enemy emerged from somewhere, we faced a huge defeat, an ally has perished, or maybe it is something more personal in nature. Whatever it is (describe it as above), it can't be good... how do you cope with it?
[5]
It's time to fight! A battle is raging around you, and it is time to focus if you wish to win, no - if you want to live! But who are the enemies, what unit are you using, what is the current situation, and most importantly: what are you doing at this very moment?!

[At this he sounded rather sheepish.]
But they said they're really confident about getting it to move again!

[Taiga. When you get to the hangar there are no words for the utter desolation to Leos' poor poor AC that you see before you. Sure you can just buy replacement limbs for the damn things but...]
See! Its not that bad at all!
[How Leos manages to say that with a straight face is a mystery. The stumps that used to be the legs literally looked like they had been torn open in the worst way as what was left of the rest of them that had been fished from the monster's corpse lay in smelly heaps at the front of the AC. The rest of Pale Rider that didn't have its armor stripped away was covered in dents and scorches!]
... Why are you looking at it like that?
[Good God... actually dents and scorches didn't even begin to cover it. Closer observation will reveal gravel and shrapnel sticking out of several sections of the armor and one of the arms just looked blown up from the elbow down. Even the arm that was mostly in one piece looked like it had a severe beating. Even the internals and frame didn't get away safely as things looked bent.]
no subject
How...how did you...even get back to base?
[He says this while waving really half-heartedly at the thing. Not in a dismissive way, but in an "holy shit did you see that car wreck" way that just sucks your soul out.]
no subject
[He sounded so proud. How he used the boosters he neglected to mention, but considering what looked to be the AC's torso plating lay off to the side looking like someone pressed it against a sand belter. Metal lay gleaming and shiny against the charred paintjob of the machine. Yes Taiga. He did rocket his crippled mecha across the ground all the way home.]

[Leos only was able to say that much before getting a light tap to the head with a clipboard.]
AAAAH! L-L-LANA! I-THAT-
Leos. I just wanted to let you know I'm happy that you're alright.
R...really? That's all?
[The woman shook her head though and turned the clipboard. It had a very official looking letter.]
I also need you to follow me to a meeting with a PROGTECH representative. They want to know just how you managed to damage Pale Rider so badly in one combat mission.
...Eep! Uh...Actually! I'm kind of busy! I... I need to go visit the infirmary for a head injury!
Leos. If you are about to run head first into a gantry...
NO!... Maybe a wall...
Leos.

[He turns away hiding the smirk on his face very poorly. You're on your own now Leos.]
no subject
Owww... Should've thought that through...
