1st Song - Introduction [Video and Action]

[sonicosuper]

[Video]
*The video is taken by someone who knows what they are doing - at an angle that is actually rather flattering. There's enough so that her face is seen, her shoulders, and the start of her chest. Sonico is smiling, calmly, into the camera, no idea who she is talking to, or if there's anyone there at all. Still, she takes a small breath before starting to speak*

I seem to have fallen asleep and woken up...somewhere, and I don't have my bike with me. Could anyone kindly let me know where the nearest train station is? I'm worried that I'm late for work, and... I think I've missed all my lectures today. I - I hate to make such a nuisance of myself, but I have so many important things to do today, and I don't want to let anyone down!

Thank you in advance!

*Sonico bows gratefully into the camera, then switches her new device off*

[Action - Genessia City]


*With no clue of where to go or what to do until someone hopefully gets in touch with her, Sonico takes to wandering the city. What she does know for a fact is that she is hungry, so seeking out someplace to eat is her first priority. The girl definitely doesn't seem in too much of a hurry, scuffing her boots along the ground as she walks, arms leisurely swinging as she sings to herself.

From time to time she'll pause at the window or some food store or other. In particular, she seems distracted by a pretty bakery selling macarons. Pressing herself up against the glass, Sonico stares in happy wonder at the various different coloured confections on display. Either Sonico will be staring wistfuly at food somewhere, or she'll be staring at her device, and the map she was given, trying to figure out her next steps, looking more than just a little lost*

[sonicosuper]

*Blink blink. Is this guy wearing a mask or something?*

So...there's really no going home, hmm? Oh...

*Sonico seeks to think about this for a moment*

Hmm. Then there's nothing for it. I thought it was one of those secret hidden camera shows or something, you know?

[wanders by, pulling behind him a wagon fills with assorted puppies and dogs of various shapes and sizes and stops as he sees her]

Yo. You lost?

[sonicosuper]

Hmm? Oh! I suppose I am! Though...I kinda have no idea where I am or where I even want to go!

*Then she spies the wagon of puppies and dogs and skips over, sticking out a hand to introduce herself to the animals*

Wow! Look at these cuties! Are these all yours?

action

[orangeoutlaw]

Genessia right now... and nah I'm taking them back to the Puppy Prison. It's not really a prison, though.

[watches her pet them with a smile]

You new?

You're a nuisance by asking such stupid questions. I wish I could have the reckless innocence to disregard everything around me.

[sonicosuper]

Dear Mr Smith,

Thank you for taking the time to point out both my stupid questions and my innocence. I appreciate that this must be an inconvenience to you. I am sorry you do not experience reckless innocence but perhaps you should try it some time.

Sonico xo

[infinitejustice]

[The face of a stranger, no older than nineteen by the looks of him, appears on the screen. At the moment, the look on his face is more apologetic than anything.]

You're a college student, I assume?

Anyway, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but, well...we're not at home any more -- any of us. I don't know which world you come from originally, but this is a completely different realm than your home.

[Video]

[sonicosuper]

*An apologetic face is a welcome sight, and Sonico greets it with a soft smile*

So then it really is true. This isn't a test or...just some other weird city? There's really no way of getting back?

*She thinks about this a moment then seems suddenly quite distraught*

But I have so much to do! My friends! My kitties! They're all counting on me!

[infinitejustice]

[Athrun flinches away from the camera, raising one of his hands, palm open, in front of him.]

It's all right, it's all right! Don't panic, please. I can explain.

While we're here, time stops back home. If we get home, it'll be to the very same moment we were whisked away. Everything at home will be perfectly fine.

Action

[dominantprince]

[Yashiro is sitting at an outdoor cafe, a cup of tea in his hand. He looks to be reading a magazine. There are a few items on the table in front of him. A dessert platter, to be more specific. Though he doesn't seem very interested in it.]

[sonicosuper]

*Sonico had just been looking wistfully into this particular cafe window when she determined that there was definitely no way she coule afford that stuff right now.

With a sigh she turns away and sees the man nearby. Or, more than the person sitting reading she sees the untouched plate of treats. Life feels so unfair right now.

But then... the treats are small. Maybe he'll sell her just a little one, one she can afford. So she takes small steps towards his table, eyes on the prize*

[dominantprince]

[He takes a sip of his tea once more before placing it back down. He looks up to the girl, expecting her to be a waitress, but she clearly wasn't dressed to work here.]

Is there something I can help you with?

[koishi_komeiji]

Fortunately there was a little youkai drifting along the very street where Sonico was. Here was a mind she didn't recognize. Drifting forward, she peeked over the pink haired girl's shoulder at what she was looking at... and what she was doing. A map? Fiddling with the device? The delicious and enticing sense of a human hopelessly lost and confused? This wasn't just someone she hadn't met. This was a new arrival.

And new arrivals needed to be greeted!

Koishi reached over and tapped Sonico on the shoulder, trying her best to suppress her unconscious nature so she could be easily seen. "Miss? Can you see me? Can you hear me? Hello?" More poking. "Are you hungry and lost? I can help! Miss?" She wasn't going to stop.

[sonicosuper]

Sonico was so engrossed in what she was doing that it took a couple of taps on the shoulder before she noticed. Eventually she turned to the girl and nodded, "I am very hungry and I'm very lost!" She was surprised to hear the girl offer help, but very grateful, "I'd appreciate all the help I can get!"

[koishi_komeiji]

The girl was... floating? Yes! Floating! And her eyes were glowing with an inner light. A moment later a sphere drifted up, nudging Sonico's shoulder a little bit, a cord attached to each side, winding around the girl and connecting at her ankles.

This girl couldn't possibly be human... Though she was quite adorable either way.

"Hello Miss. I'm Koishi Komeiji and I'm a satori youkai. But you don't have to be scared. I can't read minds anymore. If you're hungry I have some money. It's not good to be hungry and I'm hungry too. But sweets aren't good to have as a meal. So we should go have something else, okay?"

[alwaysimpaled]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm afraid being late for work isn't gonna be an issue. Welcome to Genessia, where everyone's stuck.

Name's Dante by the way.

Re: [Video]

[sonicosuper]

Oh dear... "stuck" doesn't make this place sound too good. You don't like it here?

I'm Sonico - nice to meet you, Dante.

[Video]

[alwaysimpaled]

[He shrugs.]

It's not bad really. I just get bored easy when things are mostly quiet.

Huh. Never met anyone by that name before. Where ya from?

[bloodheels]

I'm sure plenty of people have already told you that while you have things to do back home, they don't really matter here.

We all have something to get to, but can't.

Video;

[sonicosuper]

Yes, thank you. I am so glad that I'm not letting down my friends and my cats back home!

Guess I just need to keep myself busy with new projects while I'm here, right?

video;

[icyheart]

Well you've let them down. I'm sure they won't ever forgive you.

[sonicosuper]

I may have let them down...but surely they'll forgive me. They're my friends...my family...
