October New Arrivals!
Who: October Arrivals, Greeters, NPC recruiters & anyone else who happens to be hanging around the Tower Apartments to 'welcome' newcomers.
When: Throughout October, 2012 (Please Specify Date & Time in Thread Header)
Where: The Sector 4 Baseball Diamond, Parking Lot & Lobby of the Tower Apartments
Summary: This is your catch-all one stop log for arrival interactions! New Newcomers can also meet and mingle in the apartment lobby.
Warnings: Nausea, potential for violence, language- add on any warnings or ratings as they come up.
It feels like a whiplash, like being plucked up into the sky and sucked through a very tight dark space before being deposited rather roughly in the City. Your character will be disoriented, dizzy, slightly nauseous, and very sore upon arriving in Siren's Port It is your choice whether your character arrives during the safety of the day or the danger of night.
Until recently, no one knew why, but every new arrival from another world gets deposited in the dead center of an ill-kept baseball diamond.
Some of the fences and signboards have been replaced with information and welcoming signs, posted by Newcomers as encouragement. However, from time to time some form of degrading graffiti'd tag might appear here or there, 'Go Home!' or 'Now You're Fucked, Newmeat' 'Welcome to Sirens Port, Population: Too Many to Add One More' and 'Attention Newcomers: Please wait here till sunset sirens to receive your welcoming package! =) ')
A person is thrown from their pull somewhere within the fenced-in baseball field, either in the dirty infield or tossed rolling into the overgrown dirty outfield. A recent fire has charred the left side of the outfield, and grass is only starting to grow back.
Standing on second base and facing home plate, one will see a rotten, old and deteriorating backstop and chain link fencing, much like any little league baseball field. Broken down bleachers made of worn out green painted wood can be seen in disarray behind this, and some old trees line the wall and fencing along the right side.
To your left is a walled in Dugout with a secured door. The dugouts are made of thick concrete and set low into the earth. This one has been outfitted as a safe place to enter during the night to hide and wait out the morning. Sometimes Greeters can be found here, waiting for people to show up. The Dugout to the right has also been cemented over and secured with a heavily guarded and armored door.
The Baseball Diamond is held by the Neutral Government, allowing greeters access to the infield to retrieve new arrivals. However, the small building constructed over the right dugout is still guarded heavily by government-controlled Voids, to block public access to the Core. Those who cooperate with greeters will be treated fairly and be given helpful information, lead to the Tower Apartments and offered a month's lodging. Those who put up a fight will be met with Voids and detained by police.
Just beyond the fence, in the Tower Apartments parking lot and lobby, SERO and AGI recruiters will be passing out informational leaflets presenting company propaganda, including discounted coupon booklets and travel-sized toiletries as a "Newcomer Welcome Package".
Other then the lights around the Core dugout, there is one single electric light above home plate that remains on, even in the Darkness. There is an open walkway near the dugouts that leads into the parking lot of the Tower Apartments. The front doors of Tower One are always kept unlocked, but you had best close them again quickly if you slip inside during the night. The office of the Landlord is well marked near the lobby, and you'll receive keys there.
The second tower is abandoned, it looks like there was some kind of bombing. Asking around, you might hear about the anti-newcomer movement and an attempt to blow up both towers. Explosive charges were set up in the elevator shafts, back in January. Tower Two's weren't disabled in time, so the building is taped off, and you'll be advised not to go wandering in there- it's no doubt structurally unsound, though the first tower still stands tall and (mostly) functioning.
Though temporary housing services are funded by SERO and AGI, they are now run buy the Newcomers themselves. With heavy funding and support contacts from both companies, the building is in a state of slow remodeling.

[3/10 just after dark]
I'm sorry Prince Soma, I don't know what came over me. I...
[And he looked up... and saw.]
Where am I?
Prince Soma? [No reply.]
PRINCE SOMA! [Anyone near the field would hear the scream]
no subject
[Action/Video]
Curse this thing... oh blast.
[He drops it, and you can see Agni's shoes.]
Soma! Prince Soma, where are you?
[Action/Video]
Agni! Agni, it's me! Where are you, answer me!
[Action/Video]
Re: [Action/Video]
[Action/Video]
PRINCE SOMA! WHAT IS HAPPENING?
Re: [Action/Video]
[ Cause that answers everything! ]
[Action/Video]
And why are you in my necklace?
Did you... die?
NO PRINCE SOMA I WILL TREASURE YOUR SPIRIT!
Re: [Action/Video]
Stay where you are, Agni. I will come and find you.
[ 'Cept... Soma is a bit uninformed about the darkness, or perhaps just wasn't paying enough attention when he was being informed! ]
[Action/Video]
Oh my precious prince, I have failed to protect you! That your blessed spirit should bless me with this blessed object is a blessing I am not worthy of!
AGHHH! [He cries out in anguish!] I will keep your spirit safe as I failed to. Oh! Fear not, my Spirit Prince! Your Agni will not fail you again!
---> Action
Shivering, Prince Soma runs further down the street until he can finally see the silhouette of the starter apartments.
...But that silhouette is quickly blocked by a darker, more ominous one... ]
......Agni!!!
[ Soma has no clue what that thing is in front of him, but he knows if he cries out, Agni will come to him. ]
Re: ---> Action
SOMA!
[He hears the cry and is there almost instantly, ripping the bandages off his hand.]
Soma! I am coming!
[And suddenly, he's between Soma and the Monster.]
Re: ---> Action
---> Action
Soma! My prince! Please forgive me!
[He falls to his knees in front of Soma, tears streaming over his cheeks.]
Re: ---> Action
Agni...what was that thing?
[ There's another sudden, piercing shriek behind them! Soma startles, then quickly grabs Agni's arms, trying to pull him up from his kneeling position. ]
Get up, Agni! We have to get back to Ciel's home!
Re: ---> Action
[At the horrifying sound, Agni is on his feet. He pulls Soma behind him.]
Lead the way, Let's go!
Re: ---> Action
T-turn right up here! It is right at the end of this street...hurry Agni!
Re: ---> Action
Re: ---> Action
Thank...thank you, Agni. You have saved me once more.
[ He looks up, giving him a bright smile despite his trying to catch his breath. ]
---> Action 1 of 2
---> Action [2/2]
Agni doesn't physically approach Soma much, so the embrace is odd. But he clings to Soma, pressing him to his chest.]
I THOUGHT I HAD LOST YOU! I thought you were dead and trapped in an amulet! And it's my fault you were almost killed by a monster! I should have been by your side.
Re: ---> Action [2/2]
Agni!! I though I would never see you again! I thought I would be alone forever and no one would ever care about me!
[ The entire household must be up at this point! ]
---> Action [2/2]
[All the clings, all the sobs.]
Re: ---> Action [2/2]
Are you alright? That creature did not hurt you, did it?
---> Action [2/2]
