TEST DRIVE

» » » 07.11.16

Welcome to Avenger Academy RP's first ever Test Drive meme! This is for people to test out their characters, and get a feel for how they will work in this AU setting. Please read the Rules, and keep in mind that the first round is for people on the mod's Plurk only, though you are still free to post in preperation for next round. If you have any questions, please check the FAQ for answers, and leave questions there if they are not already answered.

» » » Ares

The God of War presents himself as a mean, no funny business gym teacher, and lucky you, you're right in the middle of his class. Since the Arena of War is lost to the Time Fog, you're stuck doing drills at Avenger's Stadium. Expect to be put through sword fighting, take off and landing, shield practice, and of course the more mundane running laps and doing push ups. Magic is only to be used for shield practice, and anyone causing mischief will have to deal with Ares himself.

Doesn't mean you can't try, it just means it won't end well for you.

Avengers Assemble!

Octobots are attacking a lab space in downtown. Their target: a new chemical compound that is apparently more efficient in powering the wriggly bastards. Get to your assigned teams and get out there before they can make off with that compound, or the octopi will be having the city for dinner tonight!

And Director Fury doesn't give a damn if you don't like your teammates; work it out or don't, just get the job done.

» » » Hank Pym

Class is in session, and considering it's Professor Pym's class, it's probably going to blow up in a few minutes. It might be best to make sure your homework is finished and handed in before your lab mate goes for the chemical cabinet, because there's a high chance it'll be on fire otherwise. While your at it, be careful what you touch in the lab; you might end up having an electrifying experience.

...this lab has no safety precautions whatsoever, does it?

» » » Odin

Sucks to be you; looks like you just got caught getting into things you shouldn't have been getting into, and the All Father himself found out about it. Now you're stuck in detention in the Timeless Archives, whittling away at a report that no superhero deserves to be put through. It doesn't look like Odin stuck around to make sure you finish it, though; is it worth risking the All Father's ire just to get a few hours on the dance floor at Club A?

[Han has the look about him of someone who will find a way to make it work, even if it's not his weapon of choice. Pietro was always the one more inclined to get into fist fights, and until she came here most of her training was about control at the expense of practicality. No one wanted to actually spar with her when they weren't sure she wouldn't just accidentally explode them.

She shifts her own stance to brace for impact and draws an arc in the air for the energy to follow. There's now a thin barrier between them interlaced with threads of red.]

This is when they say 'come at me,' yes?

[Wanda is not someone Han's had much of a pleasure to know. He's seen her around in the short time he's been here, sure, but they haven't talked very much until now. He thinks he might actually grow to like her.]

For somebody new to being here, you sure pick up quick.

[Right. How did it go in that movie again? Han charges forward with an impressive battle cry, swinging the training sword wildly at the barrier in an attempt to take it down.]

[Wanda spares a furtive glance to where Ares is taking apart another student's technique and winces. This is definitely her least favorite class, but the consequences for screwing up are enough to make her care. But as long as the teacher is preoccupied, Wanda can spare a bit of snarky honesty:]

No one wants to be asked to stay after class.

[The shield flares red where Han strikes it and ripples through the red threads. Wanda herself rocks back with the impact but the barrier holds for now.]

You can hit it harder. I'm all right.

[Wow, poor kid. Han would feel sorrier for him, but his technique is similarly horrible and he'd much rather not be noticed, thanks. He hefts the training sword again, trying to spin it in his hand like he'd seen one of those knights do in movies. It--doesn't look very impressive.

God, what a dweeb.]

Yeah, guess that's a pretty good incentive already. [A breath, before he nods and settles back into that stance again.] All right, but let me know if you're not.

[And with that, he charges forward again and swings at her barrier, putting as much weight as he can behind it.]

[Is he trying to hurt himself? Thankfully, Han keeps his grip and she doesn't have to catch it before there's a repeat of last week.]

You keep doing that, you're going to break your wrist. Or hit the teacher.

[Talking is enough distraction that the shield almost wavers, but although this time Wanda steps back with the impact, it still holds. This is really an exercise in concentration for her.]

Still fine.

You were the one who asked me to hit it harder. [There's a slightly petulant note to his tone--make up your mind already, he doesn't say. As if he's not the one who's probably going to break something from his terrible stances.

The next barrage that comes is a little bit lighter--for all of Han's grousing, he doesn't actually want to break his wrist or hit Ares in the face, so the strikes have less weight to them. But at the same time:] This'd go a hell of a lot easier if he let us use a gun.
