Return of Welcome to the City of Hinoto-Ri

[stringmods]

We hope you'll enjoy your stay. But is this just a dream? You remember the man who said you were here as a special guest...don't you?

[[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?)]]

Like... a kunai chuckin' scroll using log turning into shinobi.

[No?]

So you're what, a pirate?

[plunderbunny]

[blink.]

...Nope! Never heard of 'em. [Or half of those words you just used, for that matter.]

Yes, I am! And that's why I'm looking for the dock.

[getoutclaus]

[...Okay she is officially out of her fucking mind, isn't she?]

Riiight because you've probably got some timbers to shiver, right?

[plunderbunny]

Oh, yes, that's very funny. I take it you aren't a pirate or else you would understand why this is very important.

[What if... what if HE'S a ninja, whatever that is!]

[getoutclaus]

Well I've dabbled in sailing but I wouldn't say I'm a pirate. The most pirate like thing I do is downloading music for free.

[Not that he can't afford music. He's just a jerk.]

What do you need a port for, then? Enlighten me.

[plunderbunny]

I have some affairs I need to see to before they get out of hand. And they have nothing to do with shivering or timbers, I assure you.

[One such affair was a currently unaccounted-for husband, though, and knowing the trouble he could get into, it could very well involve both of those things. The other was that she was beginning to feel a bit boxed in, stuck in this sprawling city with no obvious access to the sea. Surely that creeping sensation of claustrophobia was bad for one's health.]

[getoutclaus]

Well I'd let you use the boat I used to be on but it didn't come here with me.

And I don't think there is a port. Sorry about that, Jack Sparrow.

[plunderbunny]

[That is not what she wanted to hear.] Oh. Are you sure about that? Really sure? 100% sure?

[getoutclaus]

...There's a map of the city, dude. Take a goddamn look at it, for cryin' out loud.

[Siiiigh]

I'm seriously sure there is no port; where the hell would the boats even go? The world outside of the city is destroyed or some crazy shit like that.

[Enjoy his sarcastic hand gestures mimicking an explosion]

Boom.

[plunderbunny]

Well, perhaps the map is out of date! It's...

[Quit kidding yourself, Elaine. She trails off with a sigh.]

Oh, I know, but when you've lived your entire life by or in the sea, it's hard to believe that it's suddenly not there anymore. You said you've sailed before, you understand, right?

[getoutclaus]

If I never see another boat again it'll be too soon, put it like that.

[Is that a nerve Elaine just hit? It might just be.]

I'm more of a landlubber, savvy?

[plunderbunny]

[Reeeeally now.]

Oh, there's nothing wrong with that! Let me guess, seasickness?

[getoutclaus]

Oh it was a pretty sick time, that's for sure.

['Hmmmm'ing for a while until he shrugs]

So you a pirate captain or something? Yarr matey batten down the hatches and keelhaul those bilges and shit?

[plunderbunny]

No juicy details, then? If it's a sensitive subject I suppose I won't pry! [she is totally going to pry]

Ex-governor actually! And we don't all talk like that, mind you.
