Video/Action Intro Post

[Video]

[A pair of green eyes blinks at you before the person backs up revealing a wiry teen with snow white hair that anyone from his home district would know right away. He looks a mixture between baffled and amazed.]

I'm not big into LARP campaigns. To be truthful tabletop RPG has always been my thing, but this is really amazing! Someone must have really loved this idea to spend so much time crafting it together.

[He's built gaming backdrops, boards and even character figurines but this place looks like the ultimate role player's dream project come true. You can tell from the video feed that he's walking through the streets of Fayren looking amazed. For a while the feed goes silent because he's too busy nerding out at it all and taking it in.

Finally, he looks back at the camera looking a little more serious and a bit concerned.]

Sorry! I'm still here. I got distracted. [He laughs a little.]

Still, it's troubling that I can't remember how I got here. It's been a while since...[Here he hesitates. He doesn't want to mention the blackouts and memory loss to a bunch of strangers.] Well, you'd think you'd remember that.

Wait. I know Duelist Kingdom was tomorrow. Don't tell me this was part of it! I mean, I get getting in character, but that's going a little too far.

Well, if Pegasus put this together, then maybe not. [Added quietly.]

Action
[This is just him walking around Fayren, so it can be anywhere in this location. Don't be surprised if he treats you like a cosplayer or LARPER, especially since this being spirited away thing seems like something typical of that. It hasn't sunk in for Bakura at this point that any of this is real.

Feel free to inform him of reality/troll him.]

This ain't a roleplaying game, kid. { Fourth wall? What fourth wall? } You're really in a different world.

[ One of the things Bakura might come across is Fawn's Forge, which seems to be bustling as usual. There is a rather short red-headed girl hammering a horseshoe onto the hoof she was holding, occasionally checking back on the patiently waiting horse. It seems to have been the last one too, as once it's done she lets the horse's leg down and walks around, keeping one hand on it. ]

Good work, boy. You were really well-behaved today.

[ She hands the horse back off to his owner after, sighing as she stretches and stands in front of the building for the moment. She can afford to take a little break, right?

She spots the white-haired boy then, blinking a couple of times as it's clear he's not from Fayren at the very least. Well, those people are always interesting to watch at least. ]

But you're cosplaying. [Oh wait, maybe this guy is being in character, should he play along?]

Oh. Okay. Genessia, right? So um...[Without his friends he feels more socially awkward than usual.]

My name is Ryou, but most people just call me Bakura. How'd you end up here? You woke up in the bay too?

Do you know how hard it is to find a xenothium-powered combat/infiltration suit in my size? I don't complain about the design. I actually kinda like it.

{ Thank Robin for that. }

Red X. I woke up in the Bay just like you did, only I didn't wake up there alone.

[Bakura likes this place the more he looks around. Was that an actual blacksmith's forge? He found himself unconciously drawing closer. This at least was definitely real, he could feel the heat.

This couldn't be duelist kingdom. For one, he could not see anyone wearing a dueling glove or even carrying a deck. In a card playing tournamanent the presence of cards was kind of a given and he wasn't seeing any.

Then what? A shadow game? No. Even when he'd been in one he'd been able to tell he was on a chess board. And shadow cames were generally not this cool.]

Never seen a real blacksmith before.

I don't cosplay much, so I wouldn't know. [He winces, realizing he fell out of character again. Oops.]

Then you're not a resident?

... Well, I would not call myself one yet - I have not been tested as a journeyman, even though I currently work as one.

[ It might be surprising to hear her being a little humble, and she does blush a little at the comment -- even if she's trying her best to ignore it. ]

Did you want to see Fawn? She is a master, and I do not think she would mind seeing you.

Um....[He seems a little undecided.] Will I need a weapon here?

[If he were being honest, he wouldn't know what to do with one. But doesn't everyone want to own a sword? Even a dagger would be awesome. He's still not too sure what kind of weird reality he's in, but he definitely wants a memento of this place.]

... I would not think you would, if you were not part of the guard. There can be dangerous things here, but I have not yet run into anything that would make me think it is necessary.

Nope. I don't usually go looking for the interdimensional travel stuff. That's a bit above my paygrade, more Legion of Doom territory.

[There are a lot of things that Terra doesn't know and this is another new one. Bright blue eyes shine at the screen as she looks at the white haired boy.]

What's LARP?

[Levy is just outside of her bookshop posting a sign in the window that reads Help Wanted. She spots the white haired boy walking by and smiles at him.]

Good Morning.

[She hopes to drum up some more business since her shop seems to be growing more popular, but then, everyone loves books.]

[Yugi decided to switch the feed on because of curse he had to, he had no reason not to at least for the moment. It didn't seem dangerous after all.]

This is not a game, as much as I would like to think it is.

R-right. [He's not really sure what to say to any of that. He was pretty sure this was a fantasy setting. It's sci-fi too?]

Live Action Role Play. People dress up as a character they want to be and instead of playing a board or video game they act it out. You do some of this in tabletop gaming, but I have to have a board or dice, some kind of actual game or I feel silly.

Not that I'd judge anyone of course. [He adds that in quickly. No need to offend anybody.] I have some nerdy hobbies myself.

Yugi! [And he just got done speaking with Kaiba.]

Really? To be honest, I thought Pegasus had something to do with this. [It's not like the man wouldn't kidnap them if he was okay with taking people's souls.] I mean, who else would just take us like that? Though I do like this place , to be honest it would be nice if I could remember how I came here in the first place.

[He frowns. Can't blame it on you-know-who. He doesn't have the ring on. Though it is stowed away in his belongings. Did the spirit still somehow manage to control him? At least with Yugi he can talk about this without being assumed insane.]

And Kaiba-kun is here. [He smiles wryly.] Though he doesn't seem that rattled. He's already promoting Kaiba Corp. merchandise.

I know about the games Yugi's taught me but nothing like that.

[She doesn't completely understand but she won't stop others from doing it.]

I've played a few games with dice.

I wouldn't know how to use any of this. But it looks pretty amazing. [He wonders if it's legal to have something like this back at home. He could hang it on the wall or something at least. Like the people that decorate their houses in those open world games.]

Where did you learn how to do all this? It's not a skill easy to come by where I'm from.

Oh, so you've met Yugi? I'm in the same homeroom as him.

Dice games are the best! [Sans the evil spirit, but they really are the best. Now that he's not possessed, he can play Monster World with people again and NOT send them into comas.]

[Book stores were his favorite place to frequent second only to gaming stores. So he was curious to see what kind of books a place like this would have.]

Good morning, ma'am. Are you open? [Maybe there was some manga here. Or some books on drawing, he'd been meaning to work on his art skills.]

Edited 2016-03-13 18:33 (UTC)

[Levy's smile brightens.]

Yes. You're welcome to take a look.

[With the sign in place she moves to the door and holds it open for the other to follow. There is a light smile on her lips as the smell of pages and dust greet them.]

Anything you're looking for in particular?

[By the counter there is a sign for book hunters but there are a lot of sections of books as well, including drawing and manga.]

Yes. [Terra smiles.] He's a very close friend.

[Their relationship is odd but it mostly involves Yugi teaching Terra about games and lending her different things to practice.]

What's homeroom?

[She's never been to school.]

[ That question isn't one she's expecting, and she pauses a little as she thinks over how to answer. ]

I apprenticed under my uncle, from when I was a child. He also taught me swordplay, and I intend to become a master under his teaching... Should I return home to him.

[He shook his head slightly, he knew he had nothing to do with this.]

No one knows who brings us here as they haven't made it obvious. As for Kaiba-kun... I figured he would do that quickly since I found out he's been here for three days already.

[he wondered if he should perhaps help out a bit or something, after all he had been here a while and he knew how things worked a little better, but then again it was Kaiba...]

Kaiba-kun can be pretty impressive in that way, not letting much get to him.
