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! It’s up to you, the Omegafriends, to save the day - but you’ll need to work together to repel this sinister threat.

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. 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.

1. [Ah, yes. That semi-regular time of the day where by-standers are screaming and villains are cackling and a whole lot of property damage is getting racked up.]

[Tomoki wasn't a Super. He was a journalist. Which basically amounted to not having a survival instinct when he wanted to learn something. Which was now- you might notice this normal looking guy getting way too close to the action than he should be. He was a man on a mission and nothing stood between him and getting the truth.]

[Have fun with that.]

3. [Working at the office! He's probably weaseled his way into finding out the identities of some villain and he's writing up a story on the conclusion of some fight or another.]

[It's a pretty far cry than how he was a year ago. Which, for the record, was a complete mess after his girlfriend mysteriously disappeared. Once he found out she'd secretly been a superhero, he cleaned his act up and started working on helping the city so maybe he would find Haruka again.]

[Nothing, that was, except his crazy cameraman friend.]

[Because Rei had an actual literal tendency to stand between Tomoki and his truths, because his truths needed photographing and also that had proven to be the best way to keep the guy from literally running straight into burning buildings to try and figure out why they were on fire. Instead of, you know, assuming someone or something had set them ablaze and waiting until they were extinguished to do his journalism research.]

[In this particular instance, his prevention comes in the form of stepping smoothly into Tomoki's path and snapping a few pictures of him as he advances into danger.]

Oh? What's got you so fired up today, Tomoki?

[It's actually hard to tell who's asking the question.]

[Tomoki stops abruptly as Rei- or someone, but most likely Rei. He's pretty good at telling all of Rei's alternating personalities apart- steps in his way.]

Punctual as usual!

[He turns as Rei snaps a bunch of pictures at him, putting up his hand.]

I shouldn't have to explain to you what story I'm chasing today, Rei.

[He flashes a grin, setting his camera back against his collarbone and waving a hand at him in some kind of flourish.]

Always!! Things must be captured in real-time, or someone might beat me to the story.

[He shifts his weight, spinning on his heel to grab Tomoki roughly under his left arm. His voice drops and goes almost gravelly.] Ah, chasing a lead about Haruka again? Faithful as always.

[He promptly pushes the right half of himself off of Tomoki and smoothes his clothes, but doesn't scold Jin for the comment.]

Mm. You know me well.

[And here is where Tomoki tries to slip around them so he can run back into that danger Rei and the others interrupted him from earlier.]

[Rei reaches out and grabs Tomoki by the wrist, gently. It would be an easy hold to break, but the contact is still there.]

Ah-- [And then as fast as he reached out, he lets go, recoiling. His posture changes and his voice raises in pitch.] Be careful.

[He hesitates, slightly and looks back over his shoulder.]

[He smiles a bit.]

I will, Aya.

[And then an explosion does off.]

[At first he flinches back, shielding his head and face, but then promptly stands straight again, looking past Tomoki to the explosion. The expression on his face is outright childish in its elation.]

Wow!!

[He dusts some debris out of his hair.]

Yu, how would you like to play a game?

[Child perk.]

Ooh! What kind of game?? [His expression falters for a moment, but snaps back to childish excitement before Rei can really get a word in. Goddammit Tomoki.]

There are probably going to be a lot of explosions around here. If you can make it to the ice cream shop on the corner of fifth without getting hit, I'll buy you a huge sundae.

[Sorry, Rei. He knows all of you pretty well.]

[His jaw sets and he very clearly tries to protest, but Yu is far too excited about the prospect of not only getting to play a game with Tomoki, but getting to avoid explosions and getting ice cream out of the whole deal.]

Can it be a banana split?? [Help I need more icons for Yu.]

Whatever you want!

[Big grin.]

[Rei is literally going to beat you with his camera.]

[And for a moment it looks like he might actually go running off for this ice cream endeavor, but he takes a step and a half and spins back around to point at Tomoki.]

Not that easy! I can't let you run off on your own like that.

[DANG he was so close. He sighs.]

You can't blame me for trying- I just don't want to see you get hurt, Rei.

[The slightest of eye rolls.] You aren't a Super yourself, Tomoki. We could handle more as a pair.

[Loud sighing.]

Remind me why I work with you?

Because if you didn't, you'd probably already be dead.

Right, right.

[Another sigh. He looks at the building that's already under siege by Dr. Devious.]

Well- let's go, then. Everybody.

[A grunted sound, clearly from Jin.]

It's about time.
