[ semi-closed] they just keep trickling in

Characters: New guests and their volunteer helpers
Location: Around Shibusen
Rating: G
Time: April 19-20
Description: Another small BREW hiccup results in another "round" of unexpected newcomers into the city.

Just like last time, a very small group of individuals has appeared within Death City, and just like last time, no one even knew about it. Fortunately things have been relatively calm these past few days and it's an especially warm day today, so at least any impromptu help and touring should go smoothly.

[ooc: Just like last time, this is a consolidated log for the volunteer intro buddy system. Either the new character or the volunteer can start the thread. For each thread, indicate the character names in the subject line. Whether or not another character is pulled in is up to the players, BUT the threads are closed to the initial partnered characters (hence the "semi-closed" label.

The new characters are also free to start a thread with one another if they so wish.]

Communicator?

[wow you shouldn't have said that, now he has to go around knocking on doors at some point. it can be like large-scale ding song ditch.]

[bloodinbloom]

It's how you reach the network and other Guests.

[She reaches into her back and pulls out her own. Still not helping with that Nature theme since her communicator is covered in monarch butterflies.] You'll get a manual to learn how to use it properly, but it has a map and everything to help you get around Death City.

[snowman]

We get apartments and handhelds too? It kinda sounds like they're just trying to bribe people to stay and help.

[he seems pretty interested in the communicator though, hands fluttering over it like he wants to play wih it but he's just barely polite enough to not just grab someone else's toy.]

[bloodinbloom]

You wouldn't be the only one to think that. It's really Shibusen apologizing for randomly dragging us here. They weren't expecting this to happen either so they provide housing and the basics. There are apartments that we can pay for, but they want us to have stable jobs before then.

[She stands at the front desk and nods to the person at the front] Uh huh. Oh, how many did BREW bring? Guess that's why we didn't know...

[The room listing is placed on the counter along with Jack's own communicator and its manual.]

[snowman]

They dragged us here by accident but they can't do anything about it? Sounds a little suspicious to me...

[not suspicious enough that he could resist immediately picking that communicator up, though. button-pushing ahoy.]

[bloodinbloom]

They don't really understand how BREW works fully either. It was made before Kid was born after all.

[She watches him start pressing buttons] Don't hit SOS. That's only for extreme emergencies.

[uh







too late.]

[bloodinbloom]

[E-Eh!? She waves her hands and tries to turn it off. Oh no, the Shibusen Agents were going to call or just rush over here and this was going to be so awkward to explain! It even alerts the entire DEMISE network]

N-No! No emergency! Jack's new! I'm really sorry about this!

[snowman]

[he blinks as the alarm starts going off, wincing at the blaring sound a bit sheepishly.]

Oh. Whoops.
