The Search for the Newcomers, November 2012 Edition.

Who: Open to Everyone, but only Newly Accepted Characters can start threads.
Where: All around the city, anywhere from the 5th to the 20th.
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.

[FOR THOSE IN THE CITY:]
They were getting much better at this, it was for certain.

The COMPS had been upgraded with a new program, HORUS which allowed them to spot abnormalities; if something or someone showed up suddenly in a city that was constantly scanned, then there was a high probability it was a newcomer. There was also a sort of left energy from the travel; the Wise Men called it leftover Magatama Residue, where the magical energy used to pull them to this world and keep the String intact was still faintly present around them. It wouldn't last more than a few minutes, however, and due to 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 radar function, they were nice enough to calculate for you the best transport and destination routes to take to get there.

Now it was just left up to chance and make sure you got there fast enough that you were still able to find them relatively easily. For the most part, the fact they stuck out would most certainly help...

[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...

[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.]

Yukiko was on her way back to the Libra apartments after a shift at work, thinking it was going to be a normal day in a really strange city. Scorpions one day, Halloween parties the next...what else can go on in Hinoto-Ri?

Apparently more because she thought that she was seeing things.

4/5

Despite what happened here, Yukiko felt happy to see her best friend standing close by. She wanted to yell out and wave like a normal person.
gigglesnortpriestess: (laugh like no one is watching)

5/5 boom done /slides off

Who is she kidding?! It's Chie of all people! The girl is now breaking out into a run, smiling all the way.

"Chie!!"

She's been without you for little over month: to say that she's happy is an understatement. The guys are fine and all but there are the times when a girl just needs another girl to be around. Mind if she hugs you now?
herolegs: (not enough thank yous in the world)

yes good. also 1/2

Stuck far from home, alone with nothing but the clothes on her back and the boots on her feet... There wasn't much that could brighten a day like this. At least that's what Chie thought, right up until she heard someone call out her name.

Was that...? It was! "Yukiko!" Chie's face lit up, and her slow walk became a dash. There was someone here she knew, someone she could trust, and it was her very best friend in the whole world. Suddenly things didn't seem so bad after all.
herolegs: (with you in my arms)

and done o>

And then came the hug, Chie wrapping her arms tight around Yukiko as if she wasn't ever planning on letting go. "Geez, am I ever glad to see you," she muttered. "I thought I was gonna be alone out here... whatever 'here' is."
gigglesnortpriestess: (my bestie)

woo! /o/

"Almost the entire team is here, here being called Hinoto-Ri. I arrived about a month ago."

She doesn't want to let go, praying that this whole thing is not some kind of messed up dream. 'Please don't let it be.' was what she couldn't stop thinking.
