We will be putting up a new Test Drive on the 15th of every month.

Prompts

1. Venture City in Peril! Dr. Devious’s army of Deviobots are ransacking the city! No, wait, Baron Von Tyrannosaur is back with another dinosaur army! No, wait, it's... really, ther's a lot of different ways a city can be imperiled. However, no matter the threat, it’s up to you, the Omegafriends, to save the day - but you’ll need to work together to repel the forces of evil.

2. A Hero is Born! What started as an ordinary day was thrown into chaos as your newfound superpowers began to suddenly awaken! What perilous problems and zany antics will this bring about? Stay tuned to find out!

3. The Adventure Mundane! It's not all over-the-top heroics here - sometimes, ordinary day-to-day life can be just as much trouble! On the trail of a story for the Daily Venture? Frantic last-minute studying for tomorrow's math test? Harassing people to sign petitions on street corners? Hitting the arcade to destroy simulated villains instead of real ones? The sky's the limit!

4. Welcome to the Omegabase! The super-secret underground Omegabase has it all - training centers, VR simulators, free snack machines, but most important is a whole lot of Supers! Take a minute to kick back and get to know your fellow heroes.

5. The Mighty Showdown! In the life of a Super, good and evil are always clashing in battle. Today, you’ve come face to face with one of the many supervillains threatening the future of Venture City! Who will rise and who will fall? Next issue: The shocking answer!

6. Time Warp! Chasing after Lady Blue's latest heist has left you temporarily stranded, along with your fellow heroes, in another era. Where and when have you gone, and how will you cope with the bizarre situation?

7. Wild Card! Got an idea for a thread or prompt that isn’t one of those? Make up your own! We won’t stop you.

Princess Mint / Threads of Fate / OTA

[dropkick_princess]

[Prompt 5]
[Maybe you're a villain who's in the middle of delivering a grand speech of doom, or perhaps you were in the middle of fighting some other hero... or you're just causing general chaos and/or mischief? Whatever the case, there's a high velocity princess coming at you with a(n attempted) drop kick to the head. No, she's not flying... she's just that good at drop kicks]

[Prompt 4]
[There's a young lady in the cafeteria, gorging herself on more food than you'd think somebody with that kind of body could handle.]

[Though, at the same time, she's not very thorough in finishing what she eats, and tends to jump around sampling everything she grabbed...]

[Prompt 7]
[You and Mint just defeated some villain (or you watched her defeat the villain), and... what was that she just grabbed off the unconscious person's body?]

Heh heh heh... one step closer to World Domination~

[... Did she really just say that?]

7

[rose_liberated]

...Should a supposed Heroine really be talking about World domination? Really?

[Formerly the villian's hostage, Rozalin is still disentangling herself from the ropes.]

7

[dropkick_princess]

...

[Whups did she let that slip out? She visibly flinches at Rozalin's observation]

Dang...

Well, I... I don't know what you're talking about!

[She might be contemplating just leaving you there, now, Rozalin.]

7

[rose_liberated]

I distinctly heard you say that that item meant you were one step closer to world domination. So what is it exactly?

[She's mostly out of the ropes already really. It's just gonna take a bit longer.]

7

[dropkick_princess]

...

[She stomps a foot on the ground like the petulant teenager she is]

That's not important! What kind of thanks is this I'm getting for rescuing you?!

7

[rose_liberated]

You-You don't deserve thanks if you're just another villain trying to mooch off defeating this one! Calling yourself a hero and then muttering about those things, just what are you trying?

7

[dropkick_princess]

Hey! Don't put me in the same shoes as this guy! He wanted to destroy the world!

7

[rose_liberated]

And that's not important! 'Less bad' isn't good by any stretch of the imagination! Destroying the world or conquering, it's still evil!

7

[dropkick_princess]

I'm not bad or evil! I'd be a perfectly good ruler! I am a princess, you know. [Ex princess, but still...]

You're so ungrateful, getting after me like this after everything I did...

4

[sonicheart]

That's... A lot of food. Are you all right?

[Have a cowboy-hat wearing supersonic superheroine.]

4

[dropkick_princess]

Why wouldn't I be? This is so good!

Re: 4

[sonicheart]

... I normally don't see anyone eat this much this fast, so...

4

[dropkick_princess]

It's not that fast... you should see my dad.

[Nomnom]

Re: 4

[sonicheart]

By normal standards, that's... Really fast...

4

[dropkick_princess]

Well, since I am a princess, I wouldn't have normal standards, obviously.

Re: 4

[sonicheart]

... Wait, what?

[Lori didn't hear anything about that.]

Re: 4

[dropkick_princess]

A princess wouldn't have normal standards, right? If a princess was just like anybody else, they wouldn't be much of a princess.

The top blue eye focuses on Mint before the head turns to look. The mechanical suited person takes a few moments to react to this.

Though the reaction itself came out kind of garbled because you had this...

"That seems unwise to proclaim." in an electronic, masculine voice.

"Hey you a bad guy too or something?" in a chirpy, feminine voice.

Somewhat garbled, of course, since they spoke over one another.

7

[dropkick_princess]

There's a long pause as Mint tries to figure out what the suited person said but... it's no good.

"Can you try that again? Except, maybe, one at a time?"

[electricalcurrent]

The white suit with blue glowing eyes and glowy parts adjusted some, stuttering over each other before stopping. Eventually the chirpy voice came through, "So what sort of world domination you talking about?"

[dropkick_princess]

Mint visibly flinches at the question. She really needs to reign that in, doesn't she? Gosh, why do people get so upset at that, anyway?

"Not the bad guy kind," Mint insists, having managed to pick out that part of the suit's questions earlier, "I mean, jeez, those people who go on about creating a world of darkness? No way. I'd even let you be one of my ministers. You could be the minister of... well, what do you want to be the minister of?"

[electricalcurrent]

There was the sound of clicking from the armor, but more like a tongue doing it than a mechanical one. Finally she spoke up again. "I can get behind that. My species had someone do that to bring peace between the elements. Name's Spark. Well, Spark in English. I'd probably be a minister of technology," She walked over to offer a hand. She wasn't very tall at close, probably just 5 foot 7 inches, and probably some of that was the suit.

"While we maintain a partnership, she is separate entity from myself. I will have to review more data from you before thinking your attempts wise," the electronic, masculine voice stated.

"That's my suit AI. I call him Zapps since he doesn't tell me his real name."

"My species is entirely mechanical. There is no point to having aural communication."

[dropkick_princess]

Mint's happy that... it seems like somebody actually understands what she's going for isn't a bad thing.

"Yeah, right, see? I mean, there's all these people doing a pretty terrible job, and getting into wars. I used to be the heir to the throne back home, but then my (expletive) sister comes in with this book, throwing pumpkins around and turning me into her servant! I mean, the nerve, right? But why stop at getting back my proper place, I thought? Course, I still... don't have a thorough plan yet, but I'm working on it."

She takes Spark's hand.

"Nice to meet... both of you? Weird names... I'm Princess Mint."

[electricalcurrent]

She shook her hand in response, easily holding it. It seemed Zapps had a good control of the strength of the suit. It was a sleek design, for the most part, but bulky around the fore arms. "Wings" with discs in them were the way she 'flew' though she was just walking for now. "It is good to meet you too, Mint," Spark replied.

"I would suggest scraping it then. Any sort of control of an entire world would require more technology than this planet has or a large clot among the major nations. Of which I'm still analyzing the complex relationships," Zapps responded to her ideal, "Though I can appreciate your frustration."

[dropkick_princess]

"What? Scrapping my plans? Not gonna happen! Your idea is kind of what I'm going for, except I'm better with magic. If I can find enough artifacts... or, better yet, if I could just find one really powerful relic..." she trails off in thought.
