Universal Voice Testing

[punintentions]

Two voice tests for the price of one! Feel free to ask for either or both of these characters from Steven Universe.

Steven Universe is a goofy kid who wants to be friends with everyone. But he's also half human and half-Gem, which gives him special powers, and he's learning to try to use those powers to help protect the people he cares about as well as the Earth in general and to help out the three Crystal Gems who raised him.

Greg Universe is his father, a happy-go-lucky guy who used to be one-man rock band and currently runs a car wash. He's always eager to spend time with his son and be supportive of him, even if his very wary of the danger that comes with the life of being a Gem.

General guidelines:
-I am fully up to date on the series, so I can work with any canon point! I would probably prefer to play from most recent points, however.
-No smut. And in terms of shipping, only Steve/Connie and Rose/Greg.
-Otherwise pretty much everything is game! Except probably keeping things from getting too dark/bleak. Feel free to use a random scenario meme or a RP Scenario Generator for ideas!

GIMME GIMME I want BOTH

[roseheartz]

[Meeting Again for Greg and..... Whatever for Steven! Meeting for the first time, maybe? Or something else?

Can adjust Rose's canon point to be as late as possible if you want- right now it's post-We Need To Talk.]

Stephen

[harkonnens]

Seras and Stephen are Pokemon trainers that cross paths and end up traveling together.

sonself first

[jamminshield]

[ooc: Feel free to pull her from whatever canon point you're most comfortable with! I will roll with everything.]

[Somewhere out there, in a dimension beyond the knowledge of any gem, is a certain world. One that was once touched by warfare, but has now entered an era of peace. It's there that Steven as well as his father have found themselves for the time being, in a sleepy village where everyone has wings that cannot fly. Steven still likes the wings for what they are, though.

The boy has been given a special job at the item shop; it definitely was not done just to keep him busy. Steven is to keep stock of the items that appear. Today he chooses to do so in the same manner as always, as he plays his ukulele and sings as he checks out the shelves of items.]

Item shop, oh item shop, oh what do you got today?
Item shop, oh item shop, come on out and play!

Will I find a skateboard, or maybe some new cards?
There's plenty of neat stuff everywhere, it stretches on for yards!

[He then opens his eyes, ready to sing about the first thing he sees.

But the first thing he sees is a set of gigantic dresses that look like they freshly arrived, draped over an entire shelf.

He knows those clothes. And he's been here long enough to know what they mean. Instantly, his expression crumples and he sniffles, looking at one dress as if it were the person who should be wearing it.]

Mom?!

[jamminshield]

[The life of a Pokemon trainer is an arduous one. Full of hardship and grueling training... and other trainers, just itching for a fight.

There's one small pudgy kid who seems to be staring around intently, a few pokeballs attached to his side. Then, the time comes when his eyes lock with the woman nearby.

!

The boy quickly narrows in and... erupts in a cheer?!]

Yay!! We made eye contact! Hey, you know, we should be poke-friends!

[harkonnens]

[... Oh no. He's only a child. And to Seras, children are like kittens. Fortunately, this young lady is a police officer! In... training.

With a Growlithe hovering by her side, she looks over to the kid and walks over, casting him a sheepish smile.]

Are you so sure that's a good idea? [She chuckled.] I could be an axe murderer.

[Says the woman with the badge and sporting a light blue uniform. No, she's not an axe murder. But she just might could help him.]

[jamminshield]

[Youngster Steven just laughs at that suggestion and then goes on earnestly.]

Awww, you don't look so bad! I don't think you would murder anyone.

[His grin manages to grow broader.]

But mayyyybe you would axe them a question! [What better way to break the ice then with a pun? Steven smiles confidently as he awaits her response.]

[harkonnens]

I could, but I don't think be very kind of me would it?

[Giggling, she offers Stephen her hand.]

Officer Seras Victoria.

[jamminshield]

Right! [He giggles back.]

I'm Steven Universe. It's nice to meet you! [He takes her hand and gives an energetic handshake... then he leans down to get a better look at the Growlithe before the shake is even complete.]

Who's your doggy friend?

[stickupherforehead]

[[ooc: either or. Magical finger trap sounds funny, but whatever you'd like!]]

[jamminshield]

[Steven suddenly barges into the house and runs around looking for Pearl, a mysterious finger trap clasped onto his pointer finger. He looks nothing less than excited, though.]

Pearl! Pearl? Where are you, Pearl? You've gotta check this out!

[stickupherforehead]

Steven? [she's looking up from the sink, in the middle of drying some dishes] Is everything alright?

[jamminshield]

Almost! But for everything to be super perfectly alright, I just need your finger real quickly! [He comes to a stop near her, bouncing up and down a bit, and pointing right at her with the finger trap.]

[stickupherforehead]

[oh good. You're whole, not maimed, and not in distress! She's going to put this in the 'silly antics' category.

Pearl laughs a little and extends her hand towards you.]

Which one?

[jamminshield]

[Aren't you proud of him?? He was alone for an extended period of time without any of those things happening! Aside from getting his finger stuck, but he does not quite see the problem of that yet.

Steven smiles excitedly. Pearl is willingly entertaining his antics! He just loves it when she does that. He wiggles the finger trap on his right pointer finger in her direction.]

Um, your pointer finger! Just stick it right in this hole for a second. It will be great!

[stickupherforehead]

[it must be one of those human things. It seems harmless enough and it seems to be making you happy, so] Alright, Steven.

[and in goes her finger! Huh. This is mildly constricting.] Now what?

[jamminshield]

I don't know!! [He exclaims that cheerily, as if this is a Good Thing.]

Lars told me that when someone puts their finger in the other end, that's when the real fun begins! Isn't that exciting?!

movies + cooking duo!

[jamminsword]

[ It'd been a good long while since Connie and Steven had been able to watch a movie together. Things had just been to hectic for it lately, but with the a new crying breakfast food movie how could they not.

It had even gone straight to dvd for their convenience. First things first though, while the previews played out on the tv, they needed to make snacks. Quick ones, at that. Though they were already out to a bad start. ]

Looks like your out of popcorn, Steven.

[stickupherforehead]

I see. [........] It's not doing anything.

[she moves her hand, as if to pull her finger out but...it seems like your hand is moving too.]

Steven, is it supposed to be doing that?

[jamminshield]

Maybe? [He laughs.]

I have no idea what it's supposed to do! Isn't that neat? [He tries tugging his finger back playfully in response.]

[jamminshield]

[It's a wonderful time to be alive! The Crystal Gems had given him some space and some time off from helping to collect pieces of the hand-ship. And they were right on the beach in case there was an emergency!

Was this an emergency?! Steven immediately frets as he hears about the lack of popcorn. Did Amethyst finish it off when he wasn't paying attention?]

No popcorn?! Oh no! What does this mean for movie night? You can't watch a movie without popcorn... It's just not natural!

I'm so sorry, Connie...

[Truly this is the deepest way that he has failed her...]

[jamminsword]

[ Connie gives Steven a worried look. Sure, a movie without popcorn was like a biscuit without jam, but they could still save this! Shes watched movies without popcorn before and it wasn't so bad. All they needed was a ton of other snacks to make up for it.

With a confident fist pump, Connie turns to Steven. ]

It's fine! We can think of something if we work together! [ They didn't need to call The Crystal Gems just yet. First things first! ]

We need something else to replace the buttery part of it.

[stickupherforehead]

[and yup, it's definitely stuck. Magically so or this would be solved way too quickly. What a nefarious monster of the week.]

This makes no sense! I don't see [and she's trying to bring their hand up to her eye level so she can squint at it] any mechanisms that would keep us trapped like this!

[jamminshield]

[Clearly the most nefarious... but Steven continues to look innocent about the situation. And like he's having fun.]

You don't need mechanisms when you're having a good time! Maybe we just gotta move our fingers the right way to get out, Pearl!

1/3

[jamminshield]

[Leave it to Connie to help him stress less about such a little thing. A small smile spreads as she says her do, and he quickly tries to think it all over.]

You're right, Connie. We can do it!

[jamminshield]

[He fist pumps back! And then he tries think it over.]

Something buttery. Something... buttery...
