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.]

We got lucky on that one. I'll have to stop by and see your apartment sometime.

[Has he been keeping his room clean?]

Hmm, I guess I'll ask Viridi about it later. Have you heard about anyone else trying to organize an investigation? Not just of the mountain, but the city in general?

[It'll be easier to join with an effort already in progress, but she'll start her own if she has to.]

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-20 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ Nope. ]

I think so. I remember some people had dug up some information in the library, and I think Arturia's doing some research on her own...
poorfueleconomy: (hoping it will come today)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-20 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Then I'll take a little trip to the library later. I'll need more information before I decide how to proceed...

[She's approaching this like a conflict with any other opponent. The first step is to find out what you're up against. Then you figure out how to deal with it. Then she sends Pit to go deal with it for her. ]

In the meantime, you can show me where the apartments are.

gforceinmyfaaaace: (everyone with two thumbs!)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-21 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Right this way, madam!

[ He holds up his arm for Palutena to take.

As in hook her arm around his, not rip his arm off and run into the city, laughing MWAHAHAHA I GOT UR ARM ]
poorfueleconomy: (we all need to believe there is hope)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-21 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
[She does the first thing. And not the second.

And lets him lead the way.]


So, I think you mentioned that you were training with your persona earlier? How user friendly are they?

gforceinmyfaaaace: (Default)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-21 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Considering they come from your soul, I'd say they're pretty user friendly. Some of them are kind of...weird, though. Like Pittoo's.

...the less we talk about Pittoo's persona, the better.
poorfueleconomy: (Can there be a guiding light)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-21 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, come on! Now I'm curious! What kind of persona did he get?
gforceinmyfaaaace: (you're not making fun of me)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-21 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
...it's really inappropriate.
poorfueleconomy: (What will fill this emptiness)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-21 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
......Inappropriate?
gforceinmyfaaaace: (you're not making fun of me)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-21 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Like, really...inappropriate.

[ Cut him a break he's like angel 13 talking to his patron goddess he's not going to say Pittoo's persona looks like a giant tentacle penis with his head affixed to the...head. ]
poorfueleconomy: (But what if that star is not to come?)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-21 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[She raises a curious eyebrow.]

I see....

So should I just ask him about it directly?
gforceinmyfaaaace: (B R O S)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-21 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
Like he'd tell you.
poorfueleconomy: (Can there be a guiding light)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-21 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs.]

Maybe not. But I'm curious enough now that it's worth a shot. With how red your face was it must really be something.
gforceinmyfaaaace: (you two know each other?)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-21 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
...hey, look! There are the apartments!

[ YAY SUBJECT CHANGE ]
poorfueleconomy: (hoping it will come today)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-21 08:07 am (UTC)(link)
[She'll let him have this one. She's honestly curious what Pittoo will say about it when she asks him.]

Oh good. We should stop by your room before we go to mine.

[ Better not be too messy.... ]

poorfueleconomy: (Can there be a guiding light)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-23 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Because I want to see where you've been staying. That's not a problem is it?



gforceinmyfaaaace: (she's huge!)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-23 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
N-no... I just thought... you'd want to see your place first...

[ That is actually a legitimate suggestion, and totally not why Pit is suggesting it. ]
poorfueleconomy: (Can there be a guiding light)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-27 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
We can look at mine later.

[Slightly teasing tone.]

Unless there's something in yours you don't want me to see.
gforceinmyfaaaace: (say it a third time)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-29 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
N-no, it's just...I wasn't expecting guests...
poorfueleconomy: (Can there be a guiding light)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-30 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, his room must be a mess.]

Hmm, so is that a 'no' then?
gforceinmyfaaaace: (she's huge!)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-30 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
I swear I kept all my weapons neat and orderly and my tunic's clean and hanging in front of the closet in case I need it!!! It's just the other stuff that's in the way!!!

[ The Fifth Amendment would do Pit no good. He'd just forget it existed. ]
poorfueleconomy: (I know my heart should guide me but)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-01-30 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
Other stuff?

[There is a pause and a raised eyebrow, but she can only hold on to that for a second before she laughs.]

Oh, Pit, I'm sure your room can't be that bad.

[Really he is just too adorable sometimes.]
gforceinmyfaaaace: (say it a third time)

[personal profile] gforceinmyfaaaace 2013-01-30 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Th-they're just clothes! Seriously, it got too cold just wearing my tunic.

[ But like the adorable, obedient little angel he is, he escorts her to the elevator, takes them both to the ninth floor, and heads to his room--

Which proves to be as much of the strange messy-tidy hybrid he said it'd be. Indeed, the weapons are placed neatly along the walls, and his tunic, singlet, sandals, and other various angel bling are either hanging from a hanger in front of his closet, or placed above his drawer.

Everything else, though...

There's clothes and feathers everywhere. If Palutena looks closely enough, she'll notice that all of the shirts and jackets have two slits cut into the backs. ]
poorfueleconomy: (What will fill this emptiness)

[personal profile] poorfueleconomy 2013-02-01 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
The clothes aside, you don't think you could have spared a minute to clean up the feathers?

[But she may actually be picking up a shirt from the floor and attempting to smooth out some of the floor wrinkles.]

Do you at least know which ones are clean?
