The Search for the Newcomers, December 2012 Edition.

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.

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

Last month's initial testing of the HORUS system had worked really well. The device which allowed everyone to spot abnormalities; and now even more refined, 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...

[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.]

[Sora was only here mostly out of curiosity. But, as much as it pained him to admit it, he was already thinking about leaving. He was starting to get short on money (man, finding a job was a lot harder than he thought it would be), and everything here was way too expensive...and smelled way too good. It was really tempting to buy something, anyway. Just something small! His friends would kill him if he blew the money he had left, though.

Still, he doesn't really have anything else to do, and exploring the area is fun. That's mostly what he's doing when a very familiar redhead catches his eye. Maybe it should have taken him a minute to figure it out, since she looked a bit different...but this was Kairi. Sora could recognize her anywhere!]


Kairi!

[He's still a short distance away when he calls her name, but now he's making a beeline in her direction.]

[Ah yes, that was a voice Kairi knew all too well. She immediately turns to face the direction the voice came from, smiling widely with a relieved expression.]

Sora! Oh Light, I thought I'd never find you guys in this huge place-- how long has it been?

[Of course, what she thinks she's asking and what he'll probably think she's asking are two completely different things.]

[personal profile] aworldwithoutyou 2013-01-18 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
How long? Um...

[His thought process and hers probably don't match at all - the only thing Sora is trying to do is figure out how long he's been in this world. After all, as far as he remembers, the last time he saw Kairi was only a couple hours before he ended up here, if that long.

Of course, Kairi could be from another time or something, but he hasn't really thought about that yet.]


I've been here for a month or so, I think. Did you just get here, Kairi?
princessofheart: (♥ sweatdrop)

[personal profile] princessofheart 2013-01-21 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well, yes, but that's not what I mean.

[Blink??]

How long was I gone for? I was comatose, wasn't I?
aworldwithoutyou: (pic#5532666)

[personal profile] aworldwithoutyou 2013-01-28 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
Comatose?

[Well, this is news to him.]

What are you talking about? Did something happen?

[Now he's a little worried, even though Kairi was fine last time he saw her. What could she mean?]
princessofheart: (♥ huh?)

[personal profile] princessofheart 2013-02-20 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
...

[Her face scrunches with confusion, as if she didn't understand why Sora wouldn't understand what she meant.]

This is a F3 trip, isn't it?
aworldwithoutyou: ({Kairi help})

[personal profile] aworldwithoutyou 2013-02-22 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
A...what? F3?

[He has no idea what in the world Kairi could be talking about. He stares at her with an equal amount of confusion - clearly, they weren't getting anywhere with this.]

You're not making any sense.
princessofheart: (☀ .....wat)

[personal profile] princessofheart 2013-02-24 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
But...

[How did he not know what an F3 was...?]

...This is the Facility, isn't it?
aworldwithoutyou: ({this is awkward})

[personal profile] aworldwithoutyou 2013-03-02 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
What facility? C'mon, Kairi, you've completely lost me here.
princessofheart: (♔ oh....)

[personal profile] princessofheart 2013-03-07 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Sora, does the name Val ring any bells? Or the Consortium?
aworldwithoutyou: ({what is it?})

[personal profile] aworldwithoutyou 2013-03-20 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
[He just shakes his head, still bewildered. What in the world...?]

Not at all.
princessofheart: (☀ wut)

[personal profile] princessofheart 2013-03-22 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
...Then where in the world are we?
