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.

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...

7

[rose_liberated]

Being a princess doesn't actually make you a good ruler by default!

[I mean, Rozalin's mom is royalty, and she doesn't rule with anything like goodness.]

Gratitude is not important at this point! If Lord Titan had saved me, do you think I would be praising HIM?

7

[dropkick_princess]

Well, okay, you have a point. My sister is a pretty bad princess. But I'm much better than her! Just because she got that stupid book... nevermind that!

And I'm not anything like that Lord Titan (expletive)! Don't compare me to him!

[rose_liberated]

You haven't actually shown that you're better, and I only have your word for it that your sister is bad at all.

Oh don't give me that. You're acting exactly like one of those villians who takes down another and then gloats about how they're going to rule the world or whatever.

[dropkick_princess]

She attacked me with pumpkins! And turned me into her servant until I ran away!

Hey, I have a right to gloat! But that doesn't automatically make me a bad guy! Look, would a villain do this?

[She finally takes the rope bindings off Rozalin]

[rose_liberated]

P-Pumpkins? How is that in any way threatening?

[The servant bit she can sympathize with. Heaven forbid ever falling that far. Maybe this sister really is bad.]

...Maybe. Maybe not. I'm not entirely sure what villainous decorum is currently.

[dropkick_princess]

She makes me eat them! And if I don't eat them, she sends these monster jack-o-lanterns after me!

And I don't know anything about villainous decorum. Because I'm not a villain! Get that through your thick skull!

[rose_liberated]

...They're squash, aren't they? Doesn't seem terribly terrifying. And you seem like you could deal with some jack-o-lanterns.

Well you ought to know, so you can chastise them when they don't live up to their own standards if you are a hero!

[dropkick_princess]

I could deal with her Jack-o-Lanterns easily! But when that (expletive) Maya is around waving that book, I...!

... I meant that I wouldn't want to do anything villainous, decorum or not! Stop trying to make me out to be some kind of monster!

[rose_liberated]

This all sounds terribly like an excuse to me.

You are doing villainous things whether you want to or not.

[dropkick_princess]

You think I didn't try? I'd like to see how well you'd do against somebody who has the Book of Cosmos!

And since when is rescuing you villainous?! And confiscating dangerous artifacts from villains...

[rose_liberated]

I don't know what that is, but I doubt that my first task would be to go around collecting other bits of magic or whatever it is you're doing.

I could have handled escaping myself! I am not a damsel to be rescued from a tower.

[dropkick_princess]

Then why'd I have to rescue you? [smug look is smug]

[rose_liberated]

I was biding. My. Time.

[Dare you tell this face that is bull?]

[dropkick_princess]

[Yes, without a second thought]

Do you even know how to say 'thank you'?! Maybe I should just leave you next time!?
