welcome mingle

( AND SO IT BEGINS. )

There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.

When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably.

The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble.

Well - that, and all the people who seem to have woken up alongside you, lost and also probably Doing Their Best™.

There's no need to fret that much though. It's hard to say exactly where you're going next, even though some places might feel a little bit more like a clue, but what you do know is one unshakeable thing:

There's still much more ahead of you.

Do you really think that's going to happen? It doesn't look that dangerous out there yet.

[genrouzan]

Who knows?

[ Helpful. ] You'd hope not, but assuming it won't happen would be just as reckless.

[pseudonyms]

I never said I was going to assume it won't, but I can still believe people might be better than that. [Sheesh.] Then it'd probably benefit us to get to know each other before that can happen, wouldn't it? Just in case.

[genrouzan]

Sure. They can be just as bad too, so I guess it goes both ways.

[ he tilts his head at the girl. ]

You planning some getting to know you games? If we've all got to work together, it might be worth figuring out who's never going to team up well early and working from there.

[pseudonyms]

[The worst part is he's not wrong? So...she moves on from that.]

You think maybe that'd work? It's not a bad idea and it might put everybody at ease to know who's here and where everybody came from anyway.

[genrouzan]

I don’t think there’s anything here that could stop you if you wanted to try. The writing isn’t banning the odd meeting and get together, after all.

[ ‘sup to you, lady. ]

[pseudonyms]

Then it makes the most sense to do it early! You know, before people go too far.

[But she's going to nod to herself before folding her arms behind her back.] But we can start here. [A grin.] My name is Rise.

[Give her your name plz and ty.]

[genrouzan]

[ he just looks amused. ]

Yuri.

If you can figure out a way to summon everyone in one place, then go for it.

[pseudonyms]

Nice to meet you. [Can't believe Yuri is the only name she's learned so far. But she ponders for a moment.] It shouldn't be too hard...there aren't that many places to go, so if it's just about getting everyone to one spot we just need something--or someone really loud to get their attention and move them to one space. And maybe snacks.

[This 100% makes sense to her. Everyone loves food? But maybe not Rise's cooking, let's not kill everyone on day one.]

[genrouzan]

We do have an entire store at our disposal. There's probably a lot of snacks there.

[ Everyone does like food. And, hey, Yuri can cook it. Unlike someone here. ]

[pseudonyms]

You're probably right. So you'll help me grab everything we need, won't you? [How can you say no to this face?]
