The Search for the Newcomers, November 2012 Edition.

[stringmods]

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.]

Catch away /o/

[spaztastic]

[adjadgadk It sounded like a pick up line to her, Genesis. Interesting choice of words. XDDD]

W-what, no! I-I wasn't!! [Flail flail flail!!!]

[rhapsodist]

[A very deadpan pick up line.]

Hm. Well, are you alright, then?

[Whoa, geez! No need to flail! That is not something he wants with someone in his lap. But here, have a Ninetales sniffing at your face to calm you down. She's wondering why someone just landed on her trainer.]

1/2

[spaztastic]

I-I'm okay! Really!!

[spaztastic]

[Oh, hello Ninetales. She kind of stops and stares for a bit while the fox-like creature sniffs at her.]

Oh! [Shiki holds out her hand for Ninetales to sniff.] Hi there...

[rhapsodist]

Good.

[While Shiki was distraced by Ea, Genesis gently, but swiftly, lifted the girl up from his lap and onto the ground. Seriously, he would like to get up now. Brushing off his pants and what no one would call a coat.

Ea licked her hand before looking at Genesis.

Ninetales~! [She deemed the girl nice.]

Her name is Ea.

[spaztastic]

[That coat... Shiki would like a word with the designer B|a

Oop, there we go, nice and safe on the ground (and in one piece!). Shiki giggled when Ea licked her hand, prompting her to kneel down to the Ninetales level in order to pet her properly.]

Aww! She's so cute~

[rhapsodist]

[Go ahead, he designed you too

Ea mewled again, rather liking the petting. She sat down, nine tails wagging slightly.]

Mm, she is.

Now, if you would be so kind, do you know what World this is? [Genesis certainly doesn't recognize it.]

[spaztastic]

[NOMURAAAAA o9

Shiki rubs Ea's head and sides before looking up at Genesis. His question makes her stop petting the Pokemon completely in order to look around.]

Iiiiiii don't know. It's not Shibuya, that's for sure.

[rhapsodist]

Hm. [He sighed softly, looking around.] Nor is this Port Royal.

[Now what was he suppose to do.]

My name is Genesis, by the way.

[spaztastic]

Ah, my name's Shiki. Nice to meet you, Genesis. [She kneels down to Ea's level again to pet her.] You too, Ea~

Sorry for the delay!

[rhapsodist]

[Ea hummed in delight of the petting.]

Well, if you are alright, then I suppose it's time to continue finding out more information.

[Although... he's not sure if he should leave her here or not. Was the girl capable of being on her own? After all, she apparently falls out of the sky.]

Do you need further assistance?

s'okay <3

[spaztastic]

[Aww cutest Pokemon ever~ Shiki gives her one more rub before standing up again to answer Genesis.]

Um, I need help finding my friends for starters.

[rhapsodist]

[Well, he supposed he could help her with that. All of his were dead. Except Sephiroth, at the moment. But Ea would have detected the Espeon by now.]

Do you know if they are here?

[spaztastic]

Um, noooo...

But I'll find them!

[She has to. 8(]

We'll find your friends too!
