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.]

[Well, he might not be Beat, but there's now a teenage boy eying that statue very closely, folding his arms over his chest.]

Wonder what it's supposed to be...

[He'll probably notice Rhyme in a second or two. Right now he's just so fixated on these new surroundings. It's a huge step above his island home, and he intends to explore every inch of it.]

[The fact that he wasn't noticing her seemed to line up with what she'd been seeing so far today, what with people so absorbed with something on the TV. Still... this person wasn't, so if she wanted to confirm what she'd been suspecting, he was probably a good person to ask, right?

She might as well try it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!]

I'm not quite sure. It does look kinda cute though, huh?

[islandshore]

[Oh, huh. Rhyme's voice pulls his attention away from the shrine, and he turns around, eying her with a shrug.]

I guess, but I'm probably not the best judge of that. Cute's not exactly my thing.
