First Meeting of the Teen Titans!

Who: Red Robin and anyone who received a text message about the Teen Titans.
When: Saturday, March 24th, 9:00 pm.
Where: A warehouse by the docks in Sector 11.
Summary: Red Robin sent out a recruitment message to other teenagers in the city. Anyone who signed up on the OOC post is invited to the meeting. Sign ups are still open! If you'd like your character to be a part of the Teen Titans, respond to the OOC post!
Warnings: Possible language (considering who's coming) and mentions of violence.

The world we live in is in trouble. The companies are the ones in control of a government that doesn’t want to help its people. Kids are getting picked up off the streets and sold into slavery, and that’s not even the worst thing that could happen. There are superheroes here, like Superman, and Batman. But they can’t be everywhere at once, as hard as they try. They need help, but superheroes can’t ask for help.

We can help. We need to take control back of this island. We need to make sure no one else dies out in the darkness. We have the time, the energy, and the know-how to do all of this.

My name is Red Robin. If you’re interested in fighting against injustice and helping people, then come to Sector 11 on the 24th at 9:00 pm. The first meeting of the Teen Titans will take place there, and all questions will be answered.

If you don’t want to join, no problem. This message will delete itself 30 minutes after being opened, no matter what you decide.

- RR


That was the text that Tim had sent out to everyone he had considered as a potential applicant for the Teen Titans. He knew that it was going to be difficult to start out; he could remember hearing all about the original Titans and their problems, as well as when Young Justice transformed into the next generation of Titans. But while the city had it's superheroes in Superman and Batman, there were so many people out there who wanted to help, but didn't know how to start.

It had taken Tim some time to plan everything. He had made the deal with the warehouse owner; if they could keep people from stealing anything from them, then the Titans could have their own space. That was easy enough to do, of course. The hard part came after, when he had to start transporting equipment into it. It wasn't going to be close to what they had back home, but it had a nice set of computers. A few couches and places to sit, a TV that they could connect to the computers. A little medical spot that had a lot of First Aid kits. It would work, for now.

But the first meeting was going to be down in the bottom half of the warehouse. Large, empty space with a few boxes around; it made for a good meeting spot. That's where he would explain everything, dressed in his Red Robin costume. No one would know who he really was.

ooc: Some ground rules! If someone is wearing a mask, you cannot know who they are. If your character decides not to join the Titans, that's perfectly all right! But they will not be able to tell anyone else where the place is located, nor who was there and what was said. Leave all sabotage efforts for another day, guys. All electronic devices are disabled as soon as you get within twenty feet of the warehouse. No one will be allowed upstairs for right now.

Action tagging is a go! There will be 4 sections for everyone to reply to, and tagging other people is expected, so have fun making some new CR!

Ah, no, I'm shinigami. A soul reaper. Or death god, if you want. We are human, in a way, I guess, since we're human souls, that have passed on...

Normally, still-living humans can't actually see us, but here that doesn't seem to matter. Although the other person who knew me was human, too, and he seemed to know me from home...
inthejunk: (uh!)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-10 07:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, he knows what shinigami means. His eyes go wide in disbelief, and the cool tough kid act drops with his jaw. He actually squeaks.]

You're a what?!

[That's either totally awesome or completely freaking terrifying. Possibly both. Holy shit, what is this place and who let all the legendary creatures in it?]
plum_that_snaps: (surprise)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-10 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
A-a shinigami?! [She looks surprised and yet apologetic.] D-don't worry! We d-don't kill people or anything like that. ...Usually.
inthejunk: (Hey how about SHUT THE HELL UP)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-11 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
What do you mean, 'not usually?' You can't just say that casually!
plum_that_snaps: (it can't be)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-11 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, no, I'm— sorry, I'm not explaining this very well! I— It's very rare to be given an order to kill a human! Most of the time we deal with those spirits that have already left their bodies— but are still trapped in the Living World for whatever reason.
inthejunk: (aw jeez...)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-12 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
...Right.

[Okay, still vaguely nervous and making an uncertain face here, but he stops squeaking at least? Even if he's still a bit tense.]

Sorry, that's just. Uh. It's not the kind of thing I'm used to hearing yet, you know?
plum_that_snaps: (standing)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-12 11:42 am (UTC)(link)
No, no, it's my fault. I... shouldn't have sprung something like that on you. It was careless of me, and you're quite right to be afraid. Or surprised. I don't know what all the rumors in the Living World about us are, but... I'm sure they're not all good.

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-13 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
Let me put it this way, we all think it's best not to see Shinigami in general.

[But he offers her a small smile, trying to relax a little for her sake.]

No one ever said you'd be so cute, though.
plum_that_snaps: (halted)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-14 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh? Who's cute? [Serious response. Did you meet some cute shinigami she doesn't know about?]
inthejunk: (Soba? It's in aisle three!)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-15 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He laughs. It's a genuine, ringing sort of laugh. And it's way too loud for such an enclosed space. It bounces off the walls and echoes up in the high ceiling.]

And modest, too!
plum_that_snaps: (innocent)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-16 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Her eyes go wide. Her brain starts to figure out what it is he's implying, and she shrinks a little in embarrassment.] I—I'm sure I don't have any idea what you're talking about... [Oh God, how to change the subject...] Um, ah... so do you think you'll join up? Even if it's a little odd to be superheroes? [Just. Fumbling for something else to talk about here. Anything else...]
inthejunk: (...Can I touch it?)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-19 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure, why not? [He's oblivious to her discomfort, as usual. And his sense of heroism runs about as deep as 'if there's nothing better to do' at the moment. Sorry to burst your bubble, Momo.] You'll join too, right?
plum_that_snaps: (happy)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-20 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Tiny internal sigh of relief.] Yeah, I think so. It'll be a little like back home, saving people and all. Plus... it sounds kind of fun, doesn't it?
inthejunk: (Soba? It's in aisle three!)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-25 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's right up my alley to tell you the truth.
inthejunk: (Soba? It's in aisle three!)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-25 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
It's hard to explain without giving myself away.

[But he laughs cheerfully.]

Let's just say that it interests me.
plum_that_snaps: (made a mess)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-25 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
[She smiles in return.] A-alright, whatever you say...

So what else interests you, besides saving people and being mysterious?
inthejunk: (Default)

ignore the naked, keep the flirty wink. :|

[He tries to be subtle about the once up and once down, but subtle isn't exactly his forte.]

I like ice cream. How about you? We could get some.
plum_that_snaps: (bright eyes)

o-oh yosuke o///o

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-25 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's good, because awareness isn't exactly hers.]

I love ice cream! That's wonderful! We should definitely do that.

[Her eyes brighten in a big smile. Because yay ice cream and making friends.]

hay gurl

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-26 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Sure, they can start at friends. Whatever. Ice cream with a cute girl! His smile is at least a dozen times brighter now.]

Great! You'll have to let me know what day you're free.
plum_that_snaps: (patient)

[personal profile] plum_that_snaps 2012-04-26 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Alright. Most afternoons, usually. I work 7 to 3. [What is not giving out personal information.]
inthejunk: (pic#2161923)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-04-26 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Cool. I'll try to remember to give you a call, then.

[Is he cool guy act working? Are you impressed that he's not peeing himself over you? ...On the outside, anyway. He's peeing a little on the inside.]
