[Belle holds her phone a bit like a magic mirror. She's been getting used to things around Genessia but some of the technology still feels a little strange. She does love laundry machines, among a few other appliances that she wishes she had back in France.]

Hello everyone. [She spoke with a clear voice though a noticeable accent rounding the edges to her words.] My name is Belle. I do realize that this might be a bit odd but I was wondering if anyone was looking for someone to live with. There isn't a particular reason why but I'd enjoy being able to spend time with others and I'm not sure I can afford as suitable living area on my own.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my request.
 
 
Action

[Waking up in a cocoon was one of those terrifying situations Dr. Flug never wanted to experience. Yet here he was, experiencing it. He squirmed and flailed until his face met the cold hard ground of the cave before he took account of his possessions. None of these things were on him when he went to sleep last. Okay. Take a deep breath and focus. The doctor made his way out of the cave and too the magazine stand. He listened carefully to the message and made sure to grab triplicate copies of all given materials. He would need to make notes, after all.

He was in a strange dimension and had no idea how he got here or how to get back. This was almost a little too on the nose for him but he would deal. He could do this. After all, he knew how to find a job. That would be easy, especially with his resume. He sat against the magazine stand and got to reading. Might as well give each thing a quick run through before he set out to find work.]


Video

[After reading all the materials available, Dr. Flug moved to make his video. He set the phone up against a rock and hit the record button. Just the tiniest corner of his bag could be seen before it ducked away and he stood up, center in frame. He waved at the camera before he spoke.]

H-Hello, people of this world. My name is Dr. Flug. I've just arrived and have gone through the introductory materials for this plane of existence. My first priority is finding work, it seems. And so, I'd like to apply for any open positions.

I have a Ph.D in Mad Sciences with a focus in Research, Development, and Engineering. I've worked at Black Hat Incorporated for some time so I have experience in the Evil Scientist role. I graduated near top of my class from M.I.T and finished my Ph.D at the University of Villainy in Detroit. I am also working on my second Ph.D right now in Molecular Monster Physics with a project concerning the creation of monsters through genetic splicing experiments.

...It's going well so far?

Anyway. I have a vast knowledge of the Mad Sciences and I'm not afraid of doing grunt work. If I sound like a qualifies candidate, please contact me. Or if you know of any open positions in the city, please let me know.

Thank you.

[He nods to the camera and moves back to turn off the camera.]

( ACTION | OUTSIDE THE BAY | MAY 22)

(Jagger's mind always existed in a state of flux, and it took a lot of will to push away the past, the present elsewheres, and the futures and just focus on one thing at a time, one thing in front of him. He was still disoriented when he awkwardly clutched the box atop his chest close and stepped out of the pod into...

...lapping cold water. Everything else in his mind shut down and it began to internally scream. All he could think of was getting out, getting away, and so...he ran, blindly, sheer terror taking him to the nearest tunnel to the surface, and it wasn't until the cool open air blew gently past his face that he fell to his hands and knees, box clattering to the ground, contents spilling about.

That's where any passerby would find him, gasping for air as the terror slowly started to inch away. His hair, dark and slightly curling, cut just above his shoulders, has the greasy look of someone who regularly rakes their hands through their hair. He's taller, but thin and lanky. He's wearing torn jeans, a Rolling Stones t-shirt, and a leather jacket.
)


( VIDEO | EARLY AFTERNOON | MAY 23)

(Those who say Jagger yesterday in a state of panic are greeting but a much more comfortable face. He's still uneasy and his hair still needs to be washed, but it's hardly noticeable as it's stuffed under a black beanie. The young man smiles slightly, and a little self-consciously. When he speaks, it's clear he's a Londoner, for anyone familiar.

He raises a fingerless-gloved hand in a wave before he says anything.
)

Hello, there...Genessia, yeah? Listen, I just wanted to thank everyone who stopped by and gave a bloke a hand yesterday. It's normal for some of you, getting yanked from your world and dropped in a cave, maybe, but not for all of us. Sorry if I spooked you.

(He pauses for a moment before he says anything else, his blue eyes distant.)

I get we stay in these flats for a tick, but we don't get to keep them, and I get they gave us some dosh to get us started, but I get the feeling I'm going to need more before anyone figures out how to send us home.

(If I really want to go home. That's...actually up in the air.)

I don't know how to do much. I can cook so far as feeding myself, and I've waited tables before, too, but I'm willing to learn whatever you need me to.

(He smiles again, a little awkwardly, and raises his hand again in a slight wave.)

Thanks in advance, yeah? Laters.

 *Since healing some more, Sonico has been trying hard to get back to everyday life. Not just work and hiding at home, but living a normal life. Or something like it. Trying to get out and about more, she can be found:

A) Nova City Mall
Sonico is looking for some new clothing - everything from hoodies and skirts to underwear. Between times, Sonico sits at the mall food court, alone as she quietly eats some fries, or sips on a coffee.

B) Some Bar in Genessia or Nova City
Again alone, Sonico can be found sitting at a table or in a booth, sipping at a beer bottle through a straw. Her headphones are usually on, and she looks much more engrossed in her music than her surroundings.

C) The Library
Sonico wound up with some overdue books, living like a hermit like that. So she takes a backpack with her to return them, then goes on a hunt for some new things to read. She might even try out the fiction section this time.

[Voice Option]
Hello, everyone. Sonico here. First, I'd like to say thank you to everyone for being so kind to me lately. It very much appreciate it. Second, I'd like to ask if anyone might be interested if I had a gig in a smaller venue, playing acoustic instead? It's not my usual but...I thought perhaps it would be nice to try. 
Thank you.

[The video flickers on, enter one unimpressed but otherwise unphased looking Peter Quill. Bonafide human, blond, with a glint of metal behind his ear.]

Star-Lord here, don't guess we've got any Nova Corps around here, huh? I didn't think so.

[He runs a hand through his hair and smirks. When he finishes, tapping can be heard on the video like he's trying to drum out some old song on a piece of plastic.]

Fair warning to anyone out there, you see big green guy, a green chick who looks like she could kill you, or a small furry guy with a striking resemblance to a Terran raccoon in the right light and a propensity for guns bigger than him, watch your mouth and try not to do anything stupid. But let them know I'm around.

If you see a baby tree walking around though, for fuck's sake let me know and keep an eye on him.

[There's a smile, a little charming, a little smug. His eyes are just a bit less certain but hey - he knows he's got this, and he knows if his people are here they can take care of themselves.]

In the meantime though, anyone know where to get some decent grub around here?

Action :: Arrival:Near the Bay

It had come as a surprise when Belle awoke in the strange cave. She'd thought it to be a very creative dream when she realized that pinching herself didn't wake her up and she'd arrived with a book from the castle. Perhaps it was a trick of the castle? She had little information and she was still getting used to magic.

She had listened patently to the message and retrieved a map of the city. It was very helpful but it wasn't the sort of helpful that Belle was looking for. She wished for a way home, if not to the castle then to her father. How far away was she from him now? Worry knotted uncomfortably in her chest but Belle put up a brave front as she stepped from the cave.

She blinked as she took in the strange city that she'd found herself planted in the middle of. It was far more grand than anything she'd seen before. 'Was Paris anything like this?' She wondered to herself. Some things looked like magic while others looked like strange machines. Her father had been a toy maker and while she didn't know how the machines worked, she was able to recognize them for what they were.

She delayed at the entrance of the bay, taking in the sights and forming an opinion of each new detail. Next she'd go searching for the library. For if there were answers, surely they'd be located in the vast realm of books. She could find her home new later and perhaps thank those who were kind enough to provide lodging. Things were confusing enough to have to also worry about finding a place to rest her head.

Belle was dressed in her usual blue cotton dress, her apron tied around her thin waist. Her features were beautiful while her eyes cast an inquisitive stare over the setting. She wasn't planning to accept things as they were but she needed to learn more if she was to find a place to start.


Audio :: Open

[It doesn't take very long for Belle to learn the device. There were details concerning privacy settings that she'd look into later but there is one inquiry that couldn't wait.]

Hello. [She spoke in a sweet voice that carried confidence and strength in it's warm tones.] I don't wish to bother anyone but I've just arrived and I must ask a question of those here.

Has anyone seen my father? I don't believe he's arrived with me but I am hoping that he might have arrived before me. I can't help but worry about him.

Thank you for any help you can offer.

[She removes the phone from her ear and waits for a reply of some sort. She doesn't know who she'd be met with but she hopes that someone has seen her father. She doesn't wish to leave him alone for any longer than she has too.]

Genessia: Pan's Grocery
[Kobato had finally managed to get a job. Sure it didn't give her much money to survive on rent wise, but it was a start of maybe helping others with it. At least that was her thought process.

Now all she had been told to was was when things were scanned for the customer all she had to do was simply put said item in the bag. However it wasn't so easy.

Kobato the first time somehow managed to ripped the bag, another time managed to drop an item, causing it to break. It just seemed unlucky and to some other poor customer something else might happen and each and everytime, Kobato would turn to them and bow quickly.]


I'm so sorry, I will make it up to you.

Genessa, Nova City, Attleton
[Kobato when not working appeared to be exploring around, running over to give some homeless person her money and on occasion could potentially be found laying on various benches.

On one occassion she even appeared to be talking to herself.]


I, Kobato Hanato will do my best today. I will help at least one person.

[With a determined node she looked over, going to find that person to help.]

[ Now seems like a good enough time to try making a post instead of just commenting around sparingly, right? Everyone gets a nice view of Link, who got pretty good with cameras. He holds up his free hand, giving a small simple wave. Hello. ]

Where do you find- ? [ Someone interrupts him. ] ...

HEY! Get off the roof! It's dangerous! What the heck are you doing up there?

[ The camera gets turned around and ...down. From the high ledge he's sitting on. The man below seems a little ticked off and concerned about the choice of location.

He just pans it back on to himself. ]


...anyway. Jobs, horses or best food?
 
 
xxxxxxxxxx[VIDEO]

[ And here's Tannusen openly on the network, this time. And in glorious, full color video!

He looks... tired. There's a darkness to the skin under his eyes that isn't usually there, and a heaviness to his eyelids that isn't being affected, for once. ]


Hey, so, here's a question for everyone. Where do you get braile printed?

You know, the stuff with all the raised dots for blind folk to read.



xxxxxxxxxx[ACTION]

In person, Tannusen can be found at his bar, nursing a mug of tea. Jethro is parked indoors, which isn't actually all that strange for a regular to see. The motorcycle is positioned at the end of the bar, next to Tannusen's seat of choice, and the Faerie occasionally reaches over to pat it on the gauge shroud like one might with a pet.

Cut for scary dream... )

[Liora springs awake, gasping for breath, as if to recover from the suffocation she had suffered in her dream. While it's nighttime, at least she's able to see the faint light from the moon and stars. She feels the comfort of the web bed that she's made at the top of a tree. For a moment, she looks around frantically, trying to remember where she is. Then she notices her device lying next to her, currently broadcasting. Then she remembers that she's still in Fayren. She picks up the device and stares into it with a relieved sigh.]

It's just a dream...I hope I didn't wake anyone...

[It's certainly a good thing that she didn't wake with a full scream. She sort of wishes she could talk to someone, but really doesn't want to wake anyone.]

...Is anyone awake...?

Genessia City [ action ]

[It might be a little nippy outside today on this pristine morning but there's barely a cloud in sight. Elatus given up on wandering for the time being after waking at the pier. He settled within the park beside the pond for awhile just people watching for the time being. While he's honestly quite perturbed about his sudden arrival here, Elatus couldn't help but feel somewhat thankful.

Genessia is a rather beautiful city. It's a very modern metropolis, quite different from that of Illyria. There's no horse drawn carriages or the repugnant smell of garbage, manure and whatever the hell else on the streets. It's all quite different, almost surreal. Elatus couldn't help but be somewhat giddy. This a brand new experience, one he would treasure despite the nagging feeling that he honestly doesn't belong here. He's been putting off that thought for some time now and it's only becoming more persistent as he wanders aimlessly through town.

Eventually, Elatus decides that strolling around Genessia is too much of a nuisance and decides to experience the city from a different perspective. So if you're roaming around the city doing errands, try not to scream when something colorful zooms right past your head.
]


[ video ]

This city is so big!

[Hello, Genessia. Don't mind the overgrown humanoid butterfly upon the screen. This cheery and colorful creature is one of the city's newest residents and it seems he's quite excited to be here. A little too excited given that he's just been kidnapped to some strange alternate reality in a world far, far away. Nevertheless, the faerie is all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. Those large purple pupils are just getting wider and wider with excitement.]

Is everyone here from a different world? I already met an ambassador from the Tevinter...Tevinter--um. [A pause.] Oh, Imperium! Yes, Tevinter Imperium.

That's the place! A rather grand name, no? I hail from the Illyrian Empire. We're not as grand as the Tevinters but we have our quirks--

[The faerie pauses for a long moment once he finally catches his reflection within the screen of his phone. It seems he forgot that he's a giant sentient butterfly right now and not "human". Cue in the awkward ]

...Um, well.
 
 
10 April 2017 @ 01:46 am
[ It's definitely a video. But at first, it's just of plate-shod boots stomping their way through the water in the Bay, the phone swinging with the person's gait, obviously being held face down in one hand.

That voice, though. It sounds like its owner gargled with hot ash and glass dust. And it's definitely cursing. ]


Min'etuna etunash sal?!

Pala'ga!

[ Though if you've never heard a Thedosian elf cursing... ]

Len'alas lath'din!

[ Man, good luck.

Stomp stomp stomp. Splash splash splash. ]

How is this...

[You know? Being told he was being banished for a few hundred years, it wasn't as bad as he thought it would be. He really expected to be... dead. Really dead. Painfully dead. Or tortured. And dead.

Some combination of the two.

He supposed, grimly, that the Charred Council had just assumed he'd merely been tricked by Abaddon into allowing the End Times to begin early. That the captain of the Hellgaurd had already fallen before this point and the Well Watcher had just been deceived.

He'd say he wasn't that gullible but...

In any case.

This wasn't... what he had expected to see. This wasn't the wasteland he was so sure he'd be thrown into. No desert crafted from the ashes of the dead, no burning city, no massive cemetery.

It was... it was alive, he could scarcely believe it. He'd almost thought perhaps that the hologram in the cave had just been some forgotten technology, there was no way this could happen and yet-

The phone.

Well he'd be a pretty crummy lover of humans if he didn't know what a cell phone was. He really didn't have to ponder too much on how to use it either. Wings awkwardly shifting and fluffing in confusion and silent, frantic hope, he pulled out the device.

He had to see something. He had to know. Standing outside the caves, he evened his voice, prepared his expectations and...
]

... Is there anyone else here?

*For the first time in a long time, Sonico finally appears on screen. The bruising on her cheeks has mostly gone, and the cut on the lip is now only a small red line. She bows deeply on the screen and appears very serious in her approach*

I would like to say thank you, very much, deeply, from the bottom of my heart, towards those of you who cared for me and supported me while I was unwell. I am on the mend, and I appreciate all of your good thoughts.

I may still not be able to return to my usual work for some time...thanks to my injuries...but I would like to extend an open invitation for those who would like singing lessons. Please be in touch.

[action - grass areas of Genessia and Nova City]
Finally, Sonico feels able to leave her apartment. She is dressed differently from usual, however, in a long sleeved cardigan and a skirt that reaches down to her ankles - the best way to hide all her scars.  She appears to be slinking through the parks and wooded areas of town, apparently on a Pokemon hunt, her own in tow.

[audio for nightmares - late at night/early morning]

*The voice broadcasting is a shaky and timid whisper, clearly a girl in distress*

Is anyone...awake? I could use someone to talk to...

[Oh who the hell has this communicator? It's turned on three times, upside down, facing the wrong direction twice, shaken violently and turned off-]

djsflena**$2

[That's happened at least five times too, considering whoever is holding it keeps grabbing it at the wrong angle and hitting buttons at random.

Oops.

At length, there's a sharp phrase, spitted out in a harsh, annoyed whisper.
]

Tā mā de!

[... If you know Chinese, don't tell her you heard that. She's a proper lady, damnit.

Finally, finally, the device is flipped about the right way, and oh my goodness.

Is that an old lady? That is an old, old little lady, angrily glaring at her communicator and continuing to mutter in strings of Chinese, broken up by English.

Yes, auto translate, but the old woman seems to be making a stubborn point of specifically talking in Chinese.

A phone doesn't need all this foolishness in it, make calls with the phone, you do not write with phones-

[Someone... someone please help her.

Please.

Please this is really pathetic.

27 March 2017 @ 03:17 pm
[Kobato seemed to be smiling, sitting down on a bench, newspaper to the side. Her two pokemon companions Piplup and Popplio sat beside her. After a minute or two of moving the device around and actually checking that it was on Kobato finally spoke.]

Hello everyone, um... I've heard that we are meant to find jobs and such while we're here but...

[She paused, if only for a brief moment.]

I'm not sure where people would want me. I mean I am happy to help almost anyone who is in need, it's what I need to do, but can helping someone at work count as a job?

[It was a good first thought anyway.]

If not I am good at...well looking after children. I was meant to be working at a kindergarten before I arrived here so...Any help will be appreciated.

text; locked to Mewtwo, almost midnight
Have you ever heard of a Type:Null?

That's all my PokeFit is saying. I found it in a lab. Arrested everyone there and they aren't talking, but I think.. I think they made him. He has a mask and I can't get it off. I can talk to it but obviously I don't speak Pokemon and he does have a mask on that covers its mouth so I can't even hear if it has a real name. Can you help?

Yes, experimenting on or otherwise being cruel to Pokemon is illegal in Nova City.

Try it if you want to go to prison for the rest of your time here.


[ She's definitely mad about this. ]

[As the video feed starts, you can see in a bedroom from K&H Homes where Tony is now stroking on a purple bat creature's head, much to the creature's delight. And as you can see the egg shards on the floor, you can easily guess that it came from the egg he just got. Of course, his baby talk to the creature says it all to his reaction to it.]

Oh, Tony-whony is gonna love ya, love ya, love ya!

[The young Noibat just cried happily that his new owner likes him that much. However, he quickly stops once he realized that he was recording.]

AAAAAAAAGGGHHH!!! I didn't know this was on! U-Um... Please pretend you didn't saw that...

[However, the video wasn't accidental as his expression turned into annoyance once he speaks.]

So, yeah. I know about the egg thing and this bat just hatched out of it.

I like him so far, but I have just one little complaint...

[He then leaves the scene for just a moment, only to come back to show a flat fish-like creature with a somehow dim look on it's face.]

Why do that egg have to give me this dumb-looking fish as well?!

[However, the Pokemon became offended at Tony's words before he quickly tackled him to the ground, much to his Noibat's worry.]

Oww...
 
 
23 March 2017 @ 11:37 pm
[There's very definitely a new face on the network this evening! It looks like she's still in the bay area, so it's unlikely she's had a chance to check out the brochures and whatnot yes. Mirai has so many questions right now it isn't funny. Nothing about her current situation is funny!]

Help!

W-what are these things?

[She keeps backing up slowly as she turns the camera around to show off an Eevee and Mawile.]

Why won't they stop following me? Are they dangerous?

[...that's probably a dumb question. Neither of them have attacked her yet.]

And where am I?
 
 
19 March 2017 @ 04:14 pm
[When the feed begins, viewers might see a strange sight. The eggs have been appearing for a little while now, but the strangest thing is that Qubine is cradling it against him as he lays on the ground with his head raised.]

Hmm...strange for these eggs to suddenly appear. And yet...they seem to rekindle my...dragonly paternal instincts. It feels so familiar...like reliving the past, when the plague first struck...

[What a time that was, raising the clan from a single egg, the hatchling who would be named Coco. Coco had come a long way since then, being one of the first to survive the Passage.]

Still...I highly doubt that these are dragon eggs...unless they were Fae dragons. However...I really don't think Liora would have anyone to mate with here...and even if she did, she couldn't have had this many eggs.

[He glances down at the egg again, pondering. If these do turn out to be dragon eggs, this could present an interesting opportunity]
