(no subject)

Date: November 1st
Location: The Observatory.
Characters: Everyone.
Summary: New Transports arrive and are shuffled into the Observatory after their initial briefings. The zombie plot will not spill over into this area, this area is safe and unaffected! To face zombies, characters must leave the area, and please move to the event log with those threads.
Warnings: None.

Your arrival here has been very unceremonious. One second you were somewhere else, and now, very suddenly, your feet hit the glowing white of the Transporter pad, and you're here. You aren't alone, either. There's a crowd of others around you, each seeming just as bewildered, angry, or confused as you might feel. At the head of the group is a woman in purple robes, solemn and taciturn. She hurries over a quick overview of your intended purpose here, and gives direct answers when asked for them, but to most things she simply shows you how to access the tablet you've just been given, or tells you that the DITR's greeters will explain everything. On the tablet, you can find the history of this place and a record of what your new cohorts have experienced — although it won't have Network access for another 8 hours. Someone stands on hand to give you a weapon, and though the armory is now greatly reduced, you should be able to find something to suit you.

You're shepherded down a walkway tunnel and into the Observatory, where you will find screens mounted on three sides of the wide room. It's night outside the great wide windows, and the lunar landscape isn't much to look at right now; the only lighting comes from dull red emergency lights, but there are… noises. Listen carefully. Over the voices of your fellow Transports, now and then you might catch the sound of a scrape, or a low and muffled cry. It doesn't sound human. Are there animals up here?

You're free to explore the base, visit and use any of the VR rooms, or discover your new room and roommates, but try not to step out of any airlocks if oxygen is a requirement for your system.

Welcome to the moon base, and to the remains of Exsilium.

[[ ooc; As a note for players of current characters: please keep your root comments confined to the various groups and organizations that set up root comments to greet new characters! We highly encourage tagging around here, but since it's a log meant for new characters specifically, we ask that they be the ones to set up root threads to the entry. Thank you, and happy playing! ]]

[He can't really blame her. Until a few days ago, he didn't really know what a zombie was either. Not exactly, not like this.

But that still isn't going to stop him for yelling.]


NO YOU STUPID RABBIT YOU CAN'T EAT IT! IS YOUR BRAIN REALLY IN YOUR STOMACH AFTER ALL?!

[These things aren't for eating! They're for killing. Without the use of guns or Raven, which has been making it more difficult for him.]

[He lets go of his shirt.] If we ever get home.

You'd be a fool to think them all friendly.

[ she eats another cookie. rubbing her fingers clean on her trousers, she brushes them over nymeria's snout so she can relax. ]

[simply shrugs, looking at him] Have any idea where we're supposed to stay considering we're stuck here?

Noh-Varr | Marvel (616) | OTA

[This was so not what was meant to happen, when they started to go jumping through the multiverse. Noh-Varr is used to mistakes and accidents, where that's concerned, but getting abruptly yanked out of one situation and into another didn't sit well with him the first time it happened, and it doesn't sit well now. Their explanation certainly sounds sympathetic (and that's a first), but he'd have vastly preferred it if they'd simply asked him for his heroic services, rather than being drafted.

Not only that, he'd have preferred it not interrupt his travels with Kate and the Young Avengers, who don't seem to have been selected along with him. Noh-Varr hopes they don't think he's abandoned them to their fate in the multiverse; but then, it's not as though any of them know about his little brush with backstabbing. As far as he knows, the Avengers kept it oh-so-quiet and need-to-know.

Speaking of-
]

This is unacceptable.

[Staring out the window at Earth, his adoptive planet, a tall white-haired figure in a skin tight . The whole thing just makes him, well- mad. The Avengers never would have allowed this to happen. He wouldn't have allowed it.]
reunites: (what did you expect?)

[personal profile] reunites 2013-11-04 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe.

[He's been wrong about people before. But he never quite made it across to distrusting people before trusting them.]

But they're here helping us now, right? They didn't have to do that.

[Oz? Oz? oh yeah that small kid that hangs out with Gamora and has developed an odd impression that the Guardians of the Galaxy are actually cool. The one he feels weirdly fond of even as he doesn't understand how the hell the poor kid's brain works. Still, he probably means well. Peter is going to assume that he does, anyway.]

I'm not sure I should, with that kind of attitude.

[Peter you idiot don't stand up for small children you don't even really know.

Or wait. Maybe that's exactly what you're supposed to do?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE, YOU STUPID SEAWEED MOP.

[ they were just talking about animals, okay. naturally she would think zombies are animals. then again she thought the word naturally sounded yummy so it's hard to defend her sometimes...

either way, gilbert started it!!!! ]
wipeyourfeet: (what)

[personal profile] wipeyourfeet 2013-11-04 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Well, they gave us all units we're sharing. I'm in 182.

[The problem with being off Earth for years and years is that sometimes your intelligence is pretty limited. So nobody told him that one of the Avengers' relatively common pains-in-the-ass has been reincarnated? Reduced to being a little teenage boy again. It really might help to know things like that well in advance of meetings like this, even if Loki's not really graduated himself to a cosmic-level threat, and thus, thank god, is not Peter Quill's problem.]

Well it's certainly never been green, either. It's just disappointment after disappointment up here.

.... [THAT EARNS A LAUGH.

No seriously. What are the odds.
]

Serious?
wipeyourfeet: (gun)

[personal profile] wipeyourfeet 2013-11-04 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Suspicious look.] Yeah. Why?
mynameonyourpanties: (Shit-eating grin)

[personal profile] mynameonyourpanties 2013-11-04 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
Three guesses who you're rooming with, the first two don't count. [see that shit eating grin?]
retraced: (this town is coming like a ghost town)

[personal profile] retraced 2013-11-04 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
They're people!

[insert soylent green reference here.]

Just...people who are dead. And still moving around...
transuniversal: (let me double check with Kate)

[personal profile] transuniversal 2013-11-04 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
[It's really not often that Noh-Varr is caught off guard by seeing something. Giant non-organic lifeforms, ok, they always exist somewhere, if not particularly in this...kind of colorful form. (It's very hero, though, so props to him? If that was what he was going for. He would fit right in with the Avengers). It's the definitive ability to read into body posture and emotion and come up with "sulking" that is a bit surprising. He's never seen a technologically-derived species do something like that quite so easily before.]

What are you doing?

[It is always possible that he has the wrong impression. So it is worth asking the question.]
wipeyourfeet: (teasing)

[personal profile] wipeyourfeet 2013-11-04 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
[He runs a hand through his hair, trying to act mad but he's smiling.] You. Of course.
bunnivore: (♚ manlier than gilbert)

i knew you loved me

[personal profile] bunnivore 2013-11-04 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
Tch, I can just ask someone else.

[ alice isn't taking any of this from you! and if you asked alice, oz is pretty much an idiot sometimes. a great idiot, but an idiot who casually eats cookies after being thrown into somewhere with grave dangers. when they first met she didn't understand either, but now she's definitely attached to him. ]

I don't have time for useless idiots.
anklets: (blow on it)

1/2

[personal profile] anklets 2013-11-04 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
[She hasn't seen evidence of that last point in... Mm. But it's enough. Oz's cheer had faded into slightly twisted smiles when he'd spoken to her of Baskervilles and crimes, and she's sure those bogeymen would hardly notice or care for his happiness or sadness so long as they caught him between their fingers.]
anklets: (commence silent treatment)

[personal profile] anklets 2013-11-04 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ sllllowly: ] He isn't here right now.
bunnivore: (♚ i see you going to the fridge)

[personal profile] bunnivore 2013-11-04 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
What.

[ gross, dead people. that's not yummy. it actually reminds her a bit of the chains back in the abyss and she feels annoyed just thinking about them.

then she has an idea. ]


I can beat them up.
bunnivore: (♚ don't breathe without my permission)

[personal profile] bunnivore 2013-11-04 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
What do you mean he isn't here right now?

[ at least this confirms that he's actually around. whoever this girl is, she knows him and therefore she was determined to make her find oz!

wait, why is oz hanging around this person she doesn't know anyways? ]


Hey, who are you?
retraced: (oh... part two)

[personal profile] retraced 2013-11-04 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
That's not an option.

[Even if she could use B Rabbit's powers freely here, they're not risking destroying the moon base.

Though speaking of which he still needs to mention that, huh.]
anklets: (cluck cluck cluck)

[personal profile] anklets 2013-11-04 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
[What's with that tone? Frowns, although it's only the uneasy, tense line of her shoulders which sets the expression apart from a pout.]

I'm his friend. [ firm ] We've been rooming together for quite some time now, and that's why I'm saying he isn't here. He's gone on a mission.
conbot: (HIGH BROW EYEBROWS ON A SPACESHIP)

IM SORRY

[The familiar voice stops Swindle in his tracks. He's not altogether sure how to approach this situation, running into Rodimus, of all 'bots, and here, of all places.

So he puts on his "customer service" voice.]


Rodimus! Not exactly the guy I wanted to see, but still! [Were you using this shoulder? No? Swindle will just plant his arm right there, then.] Great to see you're not dead after all, you know, I was almost worried for a second there, but you know what I said? Rodimus Prime's a 'bot that even death couldn't kill. [Were you going to say something? No? Don't worry, Swindle can carry a conversation for the both of them.] Say, remember the last time we saw each other, surrounded by a planet of organics? No hard feelings, right? You understand. I mean, we did get back to Cybertron together, one way or another. You know, the past is just the past; "let bygones be bygones," I always say. You know what I think? I think, in a way, if we hadn't had our little run-in, maybe everything wouldn't have turned out the way it did. Cause and effect has a weird relationship sometimes. So, how've you been? Doing alright? You look good! Have I ever told you I love the flames? I love the flames.

[Stop him now, or he'll go on forever.]
bunnivore: (♚ the most tsundere face)

[personal profile] bunnivore 2013-11-04 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ rooming together.

this upsets her, but keep in mind that she did get upset at ada for getting to close to oz during their reunion, and she's his sister! she pouts. ]


What about Seaweed Head? Is he with him too?
