TESTING POST: SNOWY PARTY TIME

[stringmods]

Ahh Hinoto-Ri. City of lights, questionable wards, the 13th Hour and Personas.

SCENARIO 1
We hope you arrived in warm clothing because if not you'll sure be in for a surprise!



Hinoto-Ri is covered in snow! First you show up in a strange new place and now you're freezing cold. Maybe it's just a dream? But...you remember the man who said you were here as a special guest...don't you? Is this the city you're supposed to save?

SCENARIO 2
But tonight, there's a very old time feeling. That's right, there's a party!

It seems some demons got their hands on older musical classics. As you walk the streets tonight, you'll find the city getting into it, complete with outfits and dancing demons.

...what a way to first show up. But is this just a dream? You remember the man who said you were here as a special guest...don't you? You just hope he didn't mean some sort of dancing contest...

[[OOC - Welcome to the test post! Don't worry too much about Persona stats or your levels here, just come out and make up a scenario about what they are doing. Try out your potentials and interact with the city around you! We'll supply some NPCs once in a while when you least expect it (after all have to test those out too, right?)]]

Undoubtedly, she must have looked terrifying. Of all things to encounter suddenly after falling unconscious on an alien planet and waking up on another, she hadn't been expecting civilians on a city street.

Before she'd totally gained her senses, Samus had quite accidentally pulled her arm cannon on several of said civilians standing around her in the snow, sending them screaming and running. Realizing her mistake, she put away her canon and held out a hand in a gesture to get them to calm down and wait, but the street had been cleared before she could even say a word of apology. Well, so much for first impressions.

Putting a hand to the side of her visor, Samus scans for her location, her suit calculating the atmosphere of the planet to be completely hospitable to human life, and noting the structures and general area to be primitive, but man-made. In fact, the readings all seemed to suggest she was on...

Earth?? How...

When she made attempts to contact the Galactic Federation and any of the Aurora Units she'd been linked to, she gets nothing but static. Wonderful.

Samus walks down the street, cannon dropped by her side and one hand holding it down in a gesture saying that she meant no harm. She wasn't about to get out of her suit in this weather, though.

Scenario 1

[islandshore]

[...Maybe it wasn't just a dream. Still, what if he missed Sora? He'd come so close to catching up with his friend only to get dragged off to save some other world.

...and it's snowing.

Cue one teen dressed in highly impractical clothing wandering around the city, just soaking in the sights. After all, he's never seen a city this size. Even Traverse Town pales in comparison. And the fact that there's snow... real snow.

So what if he's cold? So what if he should probably look into buying a coat?

Right now, Riku's content to just... let the snowflakes hit his palm. To really experience this strange, new world.

He'll find Sora somehow. Kairi, too. In fact, they could already be here and he just doesn't know it yet.

Yeah, he's supposed to help save this new world, but that can wait for now. At least until he's had his fun.]

Natsuki wasn't really a huge fan of parties back home and with every thud of the bass her eyebrow twitches in annoyance. The demons dancing in the streets didn't really help matters too much either.

Slowly, Natsuki makes her way from shadow to shadow, unsure of what to make of the situation she's found herself in. As she peeks out from the alley she is hiding in, her mind races with the events of the last few hours: her death, that man, and now this. It was a confusing situation, and the man talking about her being a special guest didn't help. Was this the after life? Where the special people go when they die (that would get awkward fast). In her distraction, she silently asks out loud, to no one in particular,

"Where am I?"

Scenario 1: The Cold W Approaches

[halfboiledsleuth]

He definitely wasn't in Fuuto anymore. A man with a fedora and clothes that could have come out of the period of film noir walked through the snowy city streets, looking around. He'd probably be less noticable if he wasn't self-narrating.

"It never snowed like this in Fuuto, not even at Christmastime. And that man I saw... I'm supposed to save this city?"

He reached into a pocket, pulling out what looked like a small USB stick - dark purple, adorned with a stylized J. Of course, he couldn't use it because-

"I didn't see Phillip around... Is he here at all?"

A glance around along the city streets before he sighs. He was a little troubled to be here without Phillip - and not the least because of the fact that if any Dopants showed up, they couldn't fight back as they meant to. He tilted his head back, closing his eyes and nursing his temples.

"Don't tell me I'm supposed to solve this mystery all by myself..."

Among those milling about in the city is one confused boy in blue and cyan armor. He looks around, quite obviously dazed and confused. A red and pink mechanical dog sits next to him, who's just as confused. The dog whines once, getting the boy's attention. He stoops down on one knee, patting the dog on the head.

"Don't worry, Rush. I'm not sure where we're at, but we'll figure something out. We'll get back home somehow..."

Maybe this is all a dream? Or...can I even dream? Whatever's going on, it's really weird. No one seems to recognize me...

Raising up, Rock starts heading down the sidewalk, with Rush following along and periodically sniffing around.

Scenario 1

[deadshallspeak]

So. This it.

[Naomi surveys her surroundings neutrally, considering her first impressions of the city while trying to ignore the part of her that already wants to go back. She doesn't care for this alien world, can't care for something she's never even known, but this world expects her to save it. That brings back memories.]

Hm. I wonder, what do they want from me here...?

Scenario 2

[knightofcourage]

[What the...what are these things, monsters? Dancing monsters? This is not what Emil was expecting when someone told him to go help save a world.

He stands around for a moment before deciding to start moving. He's still feeling pretty lost, but with nobody familiar around he has to do something if he wants to find out anything. So he goes up to the first person he sees who looks like they might be helpful.]

Hey, excuse me? Is this - um, do you know where this place is? And what's going on?

[leekspins]

[Orihime did not dress warmly. She hadn't known that would be a requirement for being spirited away to a new city just like that. She blinks a snowflake from her lashes, hugging her arms tightly. Despite the cold, she's smiling a little. For a dream, this one's pretty vivid! It's pretty, too, with the city's bright lights and pools of silver dropped by the street lights.]

[Too bad it's not one of those flying dreams.]

[Her feet crunch through the snow as she makes her way onto one of the sidewalks to start trekking. The first thing she needs to do is find a cafe, or at least a coffee stand. She doesn't drink coffee, but it would be nice to hold onto something warm for a bit to keep her chilly fingers from getting numb.]

Scenario 1

[blahblahblah]

[No, Rita is not dressed warmly, as she stumbles and hits the ground, picking herself up with a grimace and looking around again, the front of her mage robe now wet with snow.] Where the hell am I...? This doesn't look anything like Terca Lumireis...

[As she starts to walk toward lights and civilization, shivering, she sighs.] And what did that guy mean by saving the city...? I've already got a world to save. And this isn't it.
