(no subject)

Date: December 1st
Location: The Observatory.
Characters: Everyone.
Summary: New Transports arrive and are shuffled into the Observatory after their initial briefings.
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. 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; they show multiple variations of satellite images, focused on... somewhere snowy. It's difficult to say more than that, but those that record heat readings seem to suggest there are people there, where ever "there" is. It's night outside the great wide windows, and the lunar landscape isn't much to look at right now. But, hey, at least all the lights are on, right? No more creepy red emergency lighting upon arrival — not that you'd know anything about that.

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! ]]

[ The thief groans, crossing his own arms. He glances back at Starfire. ]

Well, I guess I got my two cents in. [ That outfit, though. Well, he can't stare if Raven is here. He just sighs, and turns back. ]

Uh... welcome back, I guess. [ He shrugs. ] Most boring place not on earth. Don't worry, I'm behaving. Not like there's anything to steal, here.

... What? Why not? Tell me!

[ Huffs! He moves around to the other side of her to try and meet her gaze, because now he's curious. ]

She may have felt, for a moment, as though she were being eavesdropped upon, but the irritation passed quickly. She could generally tell when one was trying to be sociable and when one was trying to mock her, and this other young lady seemed benign enough. Felicity could at least try not to be as toxic as she felt

"Have you tried closing your eyes and wishing yourself away?" It was hard to tell, but she was being entirely serious.

Whoa! Temper, temper.

[He's enjoying that heated reaction far more than Eren may realize, sadly.]

No need to be so hostile, guy...especially to some friendly advice.
velveteened: yes that's a .hack song fight me (} to you my dearest)

[personal profile] velveteened 2013-12-04 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
( the response surprises him a little — a lot of people seem to find that only scant comfort or question it, but it's nice she's so happy.

oh no is she crying. )


Really! I've gone back and returned myself, so I can tell you for sure.

[ When he does that, she immediately looks the other direction. ]

No.

[ She doesn't want to tell him how weird he looks, gosh. You don't want to hear it, Yata. ]

[personal profile] gillitine 2013-12-04 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Huh? Oh... [She gets a little nervous once she realizes what he's pointing at, shying away a bit--if he looks closely he might notice the vines are what's pulling her away, in place of feet.]

I, um. I'm not sure what you mean...

[ And he moves back to the other side. He could do this all day. ]

Tell me, bunny-girl!
celestial_wizard: Money Money Money~~! (Excited excited exciteeeeed!)

[ The dog spirit flailed helplessly when Lucy met with Levy to hug her tightly. ]

P-PUWEEEEEAAH

[Ohgod I'm dying~~! Poor Plue. Lucy doesn't pay any mind to her precious little spirit in light of her best friend being here. She hadn't seen Levy in a year and she'd missed her terribly. So Plue gets squished between the two girls as Lucy hugged the blue haired teen tightly. ]

Levy!~ I can't believe you're here! It's been forever! [ Well..forever for her. Less for Levy. ] Erza and Natsu are here too!

Okay!

[She watches, fascinated, before taking three cards out. She'll look up at him, curiously waiting for what happens next.]

[personal profile] battering 2013-12-04 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
What, you don't see those? [ He wasn't even entirely sure what to call them, really.

Then again, if they were on the moon, this... was probably normal? Or he hit his head. Right now Yata wasn't sure which was the lesser of two evils. ]

[personal profile] gillitine 2013-12-04 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
[while normally selim wouldn't have tried to interact with such an imposing (and smokey) man, she can't help but wondering if--maybe he's lost? i mean, he seems to be in something of a hurry, what with all that door-slamming. so she raises her voice and calls out to him! hopefully catching his attention before he can run her over.]

Ah--excuse me, where are you going?
redsea: <user name="heist"> (Default)

[personal profile] redsea 2013-12-04 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, that gets her to look. ]

I'm not a bunny! [ But it is better than "old hag". ] St... stupid crow!
coiffeur: (beni ❚ for you ok!)

[personal profile] coiffeur 2013-12-04 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ Koujaku puts a finger on the bird's beak to hush it. Is he talking to the both of them or just the bird? It's vague. ] Come on now, it's too early for such bickering.

Oh? This is Beni my allmate. [ right, people don't know these things. ] He's a robot, personal computer, and pet all rolled up into one little package. [ he uses that same finger to pet the bird, who looks like it's fluffing its feathers to look better. ] Since he was so rude, he's going to help you out, right, Beni? [ he looks at beni and then at Yata. ] So, why don't you tell us your name and more about your friend? Beni here will search the network.

Oh. [ The hairpin turns back to its original form. ] That makes sense.

[ If it made sense, why wasn't it her first guess!? Well, it's better this way. ]

Sorry...

[personal profile] battering 2013-12-04 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Stupid?! [ Ouch, his heart. Just when he'd been called cool.

Yata brings up his hands to his head, palms facing forward as he sticks them straight up to mimic Kougyoku's hairloops. ]


Whatever, at least I don't look like a rabbit!
redsea: <user name="heist"> (Default)

[personal profile] redsea 2013-12-04 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's mocking her now? Just when he said her pretty name suited her!? Two can play at that game. She stomps some more. ]

Shut up! It's a popular hairstyle in my country! [ That's what they told her. ] I'm not the one who looks like a... a... Well, I don't know what you look like, but it looks dumb! [ Pointing at every article of clothing. ] Your shoes are weird, and they don't match your shirt at all! What's with that hat? A-and that thing around your waist, what's that supposed to be? I don't get it! Wherever you're from is definitely a strange place!

Oh... that's kind of cool. [ it's said loosely, off-hand, because he didn't want either this guy or his bird thinking that Yata was curious. ]

Mm, right. My name's Yata, I'm looking for a guy called Mikoto. He's got red hair and he likes to smoke, he's really tall, and he's also really cool looking!

[personal profile] redsea 2013-12-04 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ She recoils in surprise. ]

Huh!? That's possible?

[ As much as she likes the people here, she doesn't want to go back. This isn't her home. ]

Why did you go back? You could have stayed home!

[ While the clothing is distinctly eastern or at least very foreign, as if the hair color wasn't enough of a sign of strangeness, at the very least she seems much more formal than other girls, something Anne sees in the way she walks and stands...even if she seems as meek as a mouse.

In her own belled sleeves and layered skirts, this Englishwoman must find herself taking pity on the foreigner. It is her job to welcome all she can, and this one could be new. If not there, will be no harm done.

Anne dips just slightly, one hand touching her skirt as she curtsies behind her, the other seeming too lost in staring at others. ]


My lady, you seem in distress. My name is Anne Boleyn, and I have been charged with welcoming any lost soul who may be reborn in this world.

[his face flushes at being acknowledged, gulping. he's shy enough as it is, even after all these many comings and goings of strangers...and strangely familiars. but in this case...it's hard to know how to reply.

a hesitation, and he nods...a little. it's a kind of noncommittal nod-slash-headshake. kind of.

he lifts a hand, pointing and gesturing to his own face, then pinches his finger and thumb close together. he squints. a little.]
coiffeur: (agree ❚ went out with another boy)

yana i'm sorry bye

[personal profile] coiffeur 2013-12-04 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ that hairstyle and outfit catches his attention from afar (WOW SUCH NICE HAIR!!). he's interested in whoever this woman is, so he approaches her. ]

New here? [ his suave, cool demeanor and friendly smile are in full gear. he looks over her quickly, very impressed with her taste in fashion. her hair is even better looking closer up. ]

[ a little red sparrow lands on Koujaku's shoulder after it flies from across the hall. Beni does a little whistle before speaking. ] Seems we got dropped in a Chinese drama and we're here to save ya, princess. Don't worry, I'm the brains of this operation and this guy is just the brawn!
eyecontact: (approved)

[personal profile] eyecontact 2013-12-04 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
[there's surprise, and then very quickly relief. Jericho smiles, grasping the hand in turn with both of his, squeezing to impress his delight. he has to let go, though, to sign.]

I'm glad. Hello!
wordmagic: (|| happy)

[personal profile] wordmagic 2013-12-04 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I-

[ Levy blinks, blinks again, and then a wide, bright smile spreads on her face and she bounces excitedly on the soles of her feet ]

Erza! You're here!

[ She looks relieved after a moment, her small hands held against her chest ]

I'm so glad to see you, I was wondering where everyone from the guild was.

[personal profile] battering 2013-12-04 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
[ That's what this was about? His clothes? Everyone cool (i.e. HOMRA) dressed like this!! ]

I could say the same thing about you, you know! Your dress is way too long and big, everyone's been giving you weird looks!

[ He crosses his arms in front of his chest huffily, and he's about to make more rabbit remarks before undoing the jacket around his waist and holding it up close to her instead. ]

And so you know, this is a jacket! You put it on when you're cold! There's nothing weird about it!
