1st Order [Action / Video]

[whitesuited]

[Action]

[If one passes by the bay area you might catch the entrance of a quiet disgruntled blond dressed largely in white, the only black immediately visible being the shoes and vest beneath the white suit jacket. He's currently standing in front of the Genessia Commonspace, idly seeming to turn a key over in his fingers while eyeballing the building as if he somehow finds it offensive.

This isn't the first time he's been kidnapped, but at least this go around it would appear that he's more of a guest than confined prisoner. Not that this really makes things all that much better. A gilded cage was still a cage. What they seemed to have here was an illusion of freedom.

Perhaps, he'd change his mind in time, but this place would have to work to show him he was wrong.]

[Video]

[There's only so long a time one can glower at a building, and thus once he'd sorted his thoughts out, he turned his attention to the phone he'd been given to examine it more thoroughly before finally ended up broadcasting a short message.]

Is there anyone else here from a world known as Gaia? I would like to speak with you if so.

[He would learn if he was alone here or not in a manner of speaking and then plan from there. Though while he waited for answers, he would head for Nettle and 27th street. He wanted to check out this Foundation that had been mentioned within the welcome message.]

Comments

[sayslittle]

Maybe they wanted to make sure we were already settled before you got here.

[There are flaws in the logic, of course - if that were true, why not bring Reno and Rude at the same time, and then there's the matter of their colleagues either left behind or yet to awaken. But as an answer it suffices until they can find out more about the place.

But Reno's been in touch. Rude can take that to mean he can skip certain other warnings in favour of natural deference to his superior.]

So what's the plan?

[whitesuited]

[A pleasant thought save for that it made it sound as if his kidnapping had been somewhat premeditated, or at the very least that those responsible knew just who he and his Turks were. He also couldn't help but wonder just where the other two were. If perhaps they had escaped this or if they were currently sleeping as he had been somewhere lost within the Bay within one of those pods.

Pointless really to ponder such things, given he currently can't do a thing about the situation and has very little to work with in regards to facts about this place and its reasons for kidnapping people here.]

Reconnaissance, job and house hunting.

[The first was apt to continue even after the latter two had been accomplished. He wanted to know why he was here and how he'd been kidnapped here along with two, possibly more, of his Turks. There were other smaller, minor things he also wished to know, but those two were his long-term information goals.]

What have you and Reno been doing since your arrival?

[sayslittle]

[Just as he expected from Rufus, right down to the house hunting. Of course Rufus wouldn't accept the meagre lodgings given to them upfront even as they've been perfectly serviceable for Rude up until now. That'll change, he knows, because even in a place where almost no-one knows him the need to protect Rufus hasn't left him.

He might at least be able to help with one of the three questions.]

Getting used to the place, mostly. Got security work for a company in Nova City. Can probably find something for you there.

[It'd make his life easier, at least.]
