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.]

[There is a little fairy girl sitting in the snow, looking like she had just woken up for the best nap ever. She yawns and stretches out before looking around with a slowly forming confused look.]

...This isn't home...Where am I?

[She slowly stands up and with a small efforts, takes to the air to fly over and see what all those people are looking at.

It doesn't help that she has no idea what they are looking at either!]

What's that?

[tyrantball]

Oh hey someone is all up in your airspace.

"That is the Grand Prix! Desco is going to participate and prove she is THE STRONGEST!"

[frozenmemories]

That caught her attention really fast!

"HEY! What do you mean by that? I should show them that I'm the Strongest!"

Guess what all she caught? And now she's floating there, looking ready to run off and beat up someone.

[tyrantball]

Okay yeah no.

"Desco is the strongest Final Boss!"

[all_wound_up]

[Nano looks up, amazed at what she's seeing. Is that girl... flying?]

Th-that's incredible! You can fly!

[frozenmemories]

[She blinks and looks down to the girl and then lands beside her]

Yeap, I can fly! I can do a lot more then just fly too!

[all_wound_up]

So cute! What else can you do?

[tastestherainbow]

[ Okay, time to get out of your shell, Kanaya. Starting with a little one is a good idea, right? Yes, best to make human friends with someone small.

--Wait, is she human? Are those things supposed to be win--ok, she is flying so probably. ]

Hello. If you do not mind me inquiring, what do you happen to be?

[frozenmemories]

[Cirno turns to the voice and stares for a moment. She's having trouble placing what the owner of the voice is]

I'm Ice Fairy, The Strongest ever!

[She frowns for a second and then asks with a curious look]

Are you a Oni?

[selematpagi]

Aren't you cold??

[ Says Yukko, spinning around and looking at a flying girl! Yukko has bundled up from head to toe and she's still shaking! What is this girl wearing??

Oh, and the flying part. For some reason she doesn't see anything super weird about that. ]

They're all watching a fight, I think. Or a race. Something like that.
