The Search for the Newcomers, January 2012 Edition.

New Arrivals


Who: Open to Everyone, but only Newly Accepted Characters can start threads.
Where: All around the city! They appear where you want them to appear.
Summary: Newcomers arrive and by now the Government is more ready and sends everyone out to go people hunting.
Warnings: ARRIVALS. Also assume the first thread is the ones who tell you about the city, and the other tags for the character can be talking with others in the city and learning more about it.
Music: This

[FOR THOSE IN THE CITY:]
It was Grand Prix frenzy by this time. The streets were filled with people watching every available television screen, crowds in the bigger areas of Scorpio district with the larger screen.

Now the HORUS detection system was working again. The device allowed everyone to spot abnormalities; and while it was being re-tuned to work with the appearing buildings, they could hone in on newcomers at a much faster pace. The leftover energy from the travel (commonly called Magatama Residue) gave them a few minutes to find them before it would flicker out.

Combined with the fact they could appear in most parts of the city, it made finding the newcomers was both easy yet frustratingly difficult.

As the blips appear on your own radar function, it was also nice enough to calculate for you the best transport and destination routes to take to get there. Speed was of the essence, after all.

[FOR THOSE WHO JUST ARRIVED:]
You're not in your homeworld anymore. That much is evident. So how do you feel? Happy? Sad? Troubled? A little of all three? No matter what, the memories of a butterfly man named Philemon are fading like a dream; you'll remember the details, but perhaps not everything he has said.

There is one word that stays with you, however.

Persona.

So...here to save the city, huh? First you'll need to find out more information. And who knows, maybe a familiar face or two...

But why are everyone huddle around large televisions screens for some reason?

[OOC: As stated above, only new characters can start a thread, but feel free to jump in any of them. characters arrive with their clothing and whatever items they had on them the moment they were taken; the remaining items will be later found in their apartments.]

Traverse Town...

[That was only shortly after they all left the islands, which meant Riku hadn't really fallen to darkness yet. Well, she'd keep that little tidbit to herself-- don't want to alarm him or anything. But as long as she was around, darkness wouldn't be an issue for him anyways; Kairi would never let it happen to him again if she could help it.]

Before we talk, how about we grab something to eat? There's an ice cream place nearby that just opened, and I've been meaning to try it.

[See, this he can handle. Kairi's friendly demeanor eases any remaining tension, and his lips quirk into a smile. Weird as this situation is, at least she's trying to ease him into it rather than acting all cryptic like Maleficent.]

Guess a quick detour wouldn't hurt. To tell you the truth, I was getting hungry, anyway.

[Probably doesn't help that he hadn't exactly stopped to snack, either.]

Cool! I'll pay, don't worry~

[She motions for him to follow her, fingers laced behind her back as she walks. Kairi would explain where they were, what the town was, what the power they received was, maybe even a little about her if he asked, but she'd avoid anything about his future for now. Best let Riku himself handle that.]
islandshore: (huh what?)

[personal profile] islandshore 2013-01-24 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, he'll trail along, no questions asked. Though, given that he has no idea what direction they're headed, much less what's going on, maybe he should ask a thing or two...]

Say, Kairi, what's the deal with this place, anyway?

It's another world, kind of like Traverse Town. You were called here by a man named 'Philemon' to help protect it because he deems you a worthy hero.

[They reach the ice cream stand, and Kairi surveys the flavors with a hungry eye.]

Which one do you want?
islandshore: (calm)

[personal profile] islandshore 2013-03-03 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm...

[Give him a second to peruse the different flavors. Some of them look... strange, to say the least, like the one resembling a duck.

But eventually, one catches his eye, and he gestures to the Rockin' Crunch.]


Might as well give this one a whirl.

Nice choice~

[She herself goes for the Honey Bunny, and pays the vendor before turning to hand Riku his ice cream. Ice cream was always a good conversation starter, oh yes.]

Shall we sit down? We can talk in more detail while we eat.
islandshore: (glad)

[personal profile] islandshore 2013-03-10 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Works for me. I could use a breather, anyway.

[He's kinda been wandering around a lot. Even the most athletic dudes deserve some downtime.]
