[Action]

[If your character is braving the streets today, they may suddenly find themselves running into what can only be described as a wall of air. There is nothing that would visually give it away, but for some reason trying to pass through it does nothing. Thankfully, it doesn't hurt or anything to run into it - there isn't any real substance there, after all.]

[Video; Evening]

Hey. I've been wondering for a while... How many people remember where they're from? I know I'm from Japan and we've got someone from America.

I guess I'm just curious.

((OOC: 8% spent on the raid on the base and the oil rig. No details on the people he was with at the time, or why.))

hasagoldsuit

[He hadn't been listening to the weather much. In between finding out about his new roommate (oh, great, he'd have to work harder to keep from getting caught) and getting himself a lovely collection of signatures from some random people off the street (as well as their money), he didn't have time to do so.

Then again, it isn't like anyone could have predicted that the sky would rain green slime, of all things, on the one night that he finds trouble trying to get back to his room. And since he didn't find a safe place to wait out the storm in time, let's just say Moist is now more than moist, and his suit has now been ruined.

Oh, look, everyone. There is now what is apparently a green slime monster making its way to the Ermis Suites. Dare attack it?]

[VOICE]

[There's a fair bit of background noise on this one before Moist speaks up. One can probably make out the words "bloody hell", "gods-dammit" and other such colorful words and phrases. It was his second-best suit, after all--the best one is the golden suit he'd arrived in that is now in his closet, along with quite a few tools for the amnesiac criminal.

Then, finally...]

Anyone know how to get a rather large amount of green slime off a very expensive suit? And while we're at it, off your...everything else as well? Why would it even be raining green slime in the first place...

Attention, fellow exiles!

It recently came to my attention that there are some quite serviceable training facilities available to those who seek it out. Well done, Ky.

However! Unless I miss my guess, there are some among us who wish to refine skills a bit beyond casual sparring matches. Those with incredible powers, who risk hurting those around them or themselves if they practice carelessly.

It is to these people whom I offer my services as a trainer and sparring partner. Before I came here I was a Prinny Instructor, so I have experience in training, and I seem to possess enough skill and power to at least survive against most opponents.

If the ordeal with the "oni" taught us anything, it is that we must all be prepared. Seek me out, if you think you stand to benefit from it.

I remembered my home.

[Close-up of an incredibly realistic painting done of a small, sleepy looking hamlet. There are people milling about, almost seeming to move within the picture. At the far end of the painting is a small house that seems to stand out in some way, though it isn't clear why. Perhaps more detail and attention were paid to this little home, for some reason.]

It's a super boring place. I'm better off here!

[There is a sadness in her voice that can't be totally hidden, no matter how much she tries.]

It's called Thamasa. And everyone there could use magic, but we weren't supposed to. I can't remember why. Probably 'cause some stupid old guy was in charge and didn't want anyone to have any fun. But you can't keep talent like mine silent! I painted all the time anyway, and made all kinds of fun stuff happen, and they couldn't stop me because I'm so awesome and adorable and talented.

[She paints a few more things, adding small details until she's satisfied.]

Stupid, boring old town. At least here I can use my magic and no one yells at me.

trustycrowbar

Soooo yeah, I'm finally starting to remember some stuff! Favorite kind of coffee. The layout of downtown Seattle. You know, really useful shit. Anyway it turns out we beat back those blue Oni finally. It'll be kind of nice to see this place when it's not crawling with monsters. Except, you know...

[He turns and the background rotates from a grey stone wall to bars behind him.]

Those bastards locked me up for grabbing that shotgun! And those grenades. Okay, so yeah, they weren't exactly just lying around, it was more like they were stowed in a case inside a gun store that was closed for the night, but dammit I regret nothing! There were lives on the line! DamnstupidfrigginTawagotogadesu--

--oh yeah, turns out I can speak Japanese; no idea where I learned it. Look, can someone just spot my bail to get me out of here?

all_onis_are_true

Who: Hiroshi, Palom, Gordon Freeman, Shampoo, Dave Strider, Rudy
What: The Finale of the Ao Oni Plot.
When: Shortly after Hiroshi runs off attempting to resolve the situation himself.
Where: A large, spooky mansion. Of course.
Notes: As of this log, all Onis are officially flushed out of Sirocco for good. Should someone feel like it, they may still on occasion appear in normal mission logs, but they are effectively no longer an issue in Sirocco itself.

( The resolution of a long nightmare. )

And then the cavalry arrived.

gogoghostpowers

I think...I actually remember being alive now! Although, I guess it's a little weird, since this is the first time I've remembered ever...well, breathing, or anything else like that. But I also know where I'm from now!

Anyone ever hear of Amity Park? It's in Illinois, if that helps. It's pretty well-known for having lots of ghosts and being haunted and all sorts of stuff like that.

Huh, that would explain why my parents were ghost hunters, wouldn't it?

((OOC: 1% on his parents' work. 2% on random details about Amity Park and his world in general. 2% on general life stuff from age 6-10. 2% on high school stuff, pre-portal. 19.1% total memory regain. 1.4% remaining.))

[It is still 5 o'clock in the morning. Sucks to be you if you're not awake.]

Guys!!!! Hiroshi's gone!!!

He left me this stupid note, and it says 'Dear Palom, I am a stupid moron and I decided to go do this all by myself and get trapped with a bunch of stupid blue ogres for the next kajillion years because I am a stupid moron and stupid morons go off by themselves in the middle of the night to get killed and eaten also feed the dumb octopus.'

Hurry up, don't tell me you guys turn these things off when you're asleep, we have to go find him!

.........Fine, I'll wake you all up myself!

[action]
[Sucks to be you even more. Practically every apartment is subjected to incoherent high-pitched ranting and pounding.]

all_onis_are_true

Who: Hiroshi, Dave Strider, Supernova, Rudy, and any and all interested parties. Justice League members also welcome.
When: Shortly after the intervention at the hill.
Where: Justice League Building
What: Perhaps the situation isn't as futile as initially thought.
Note: Details contributing to the final plot log will show up in this one.

( The fat lady hasn't sung yet. )

[Months in the future, but not many...

It all went wrong six months ago, when Hiroshi tried to banish the oni. It didn't work as expected. In fact it did the exact opposite. The rod only effected maybe one person in ten, but that was more than enough. Each effected person had exploded, revealing a fully formed, blue, mindless killing machine. Within a week, half the city was dead or worse, the rest running for their lives. Now Sirocco is in burning ruins, with oni wandering the streets, chasing and killing anyone they come across.

The last survivors are holed up in the laboratory at the heart of the city. The oni haven't managed to find a way in quite yet, but it's only a matter of time.

Dave abruptly stands up from where he had been sitting in the corner, getting some rest.]

That's it. I give. This is a lost cause.

[ooc: Just as described, this is in the future. However, it's not the only future. This is a splinter timeline, and none of the events leading up to this are actually going to happen after the Ao Oni plot is resolved. To that end, when tagging this feel free to make up various horrible or heroic things that have happened over the last few months. The vast majority of the game's cast are probably dead or turned to Oni by this point, so if you don't tag here, it's likely you're dead.

Again, these events will not come to pass and have no effect on the game outside of this post beyond what Future Dave and Supernova remember.]

healeveryone

Hey, everyone! New Roots is officially opening today. If anyone watching this is new, we're selling flowers and produce grown in a greenhouse here in the city. The store's located a few blocks west of the Ermis Suites, if anyone wants to check it out! And if anybody happens to be looking for work anytime soon, we could always use more people.

Have a great Valentine's Day, everyone. Come give us a look if you have time, okay?

all_onis_are_true

Who: Hiroshi, Supernova, Dave Strider. Also open to anybody, especially if they participated in either of the two action logs.
When: Shortly after the conclusion of both logs.
What: The Rod of Calem-Sur is assembled. Surely this is the end of the Ao Oni invasion...?
Where: The highest hill in Sirocco

( Of course, it's never as easy as all that. )

theheirofbreath

Has anyone ever done something they didn't know they could do? I mean, not even something they were trying to do, but a weird new thing that just kind of happened out of nowhere.

I guess I'm still getting the hang of this memory loss thing....

[/filtered to Dave Strider]

Hey, Dave? Do you have a minute? There's something I need to ask you about....

third_alternative

Y'know, I didn't realize it before, but these apartments here are pretty sweet! As far as apartments go, and all that. I mean, hey, it's better than back home. The only good thing about remembering my old room is that I remembered something at all.

But hey, I know something that's way better to remember than a dumb old room! [Rex pulls out a small book from his jacket.] A journal. Just remembered I've been keeping this bad boy with me the whole time! There must be all kinds of awesome stuff about me in here! Bet you guys all wished you had one too, huh?

Even if I still don't get why anyone would write in something as dinky and...old-fashioned as a journal.

((OOC: 0.5% on 'Home Sweet Hole' and the general treatment he received in those times. 0.3% on the fact that he has a journal. 1.8% total regain, 6.2% remaining.))

life_is_megas_wonderful

Who: Hiroshi, Palom, Vriska, Rudy, Yuta, and Barnaby, with special guest Supernova
What: The Search for the Rod of Calem-Sur, part 1
When: Simultaneously with the log for the orb (Monday)
Where: A Japanese tower ruin
Note: Bluh bluh huge jerks

Truly a cohesive team here folks.

all_onis_are_true

Who: Hiroshi and whoever else joins him or occupies the building, along with very bad things.
Where: Sirocco Library
When: February 3
What: Hiroshi's found a potential solution to the Oni problem -- but he's soon got problems of his own...
Notes: Part of the Ao Oni plot. Remember that it is possible to die and become an Oni, but this is entirely mun fiat. Note that the plot will still advance if this thread does not wrap up within the week, but a lot of things will have to be handwaved.

( And again, things are stirring... )

[Valvatorez looms dramatically atop City Hall. For those in the area, his dramatic speech is audible from the streets. For the rest of you, a video feed is also available.]

Hear me, exiles of Sirocco!

I have studied in the ways of your people, and I will follow them myself. Thusly, my presidency will be decided not by an evilection, but by an election!

I, Presidential Candidate Valvatorez, am joining this presidential race as the sole representative of the Hades Party. Once elected, I shall unify the exiled wanderers of Sirocco towards greater purpose, total memory recall, and ultimately the uncovering of the Truth!

Great expeditions shall be made to forge deeper into the dark country beyond the city, to uncover secrets and tame the lands beyond our borders! Volunteers will be organized from the strong to liberate Anemoi and distribute them amongst the weak! If necessary, I shall oppose the very Gods themselves in my quest for freedom, truth and justice!

So vote for me, if you desire a world no longer ruled by ignorance. If you oppose my views, then I will welcome you as a rival electoral candidate! Come at me, brothers!

[action, Ermis rooftop]
[Alright. He can handle being trapped with them in a creepy old house. He can get used to them showing up constantly in his nightmares. He might even be able to forgive them taking over the city, if it came down to it.

But wrecking his ice cream diet? Heck. No. It's time to kick some oni butt.

The skies of Sirocco grow dark as the self-proclaimed prodigy ascends the steps of the apartment building up to the roof. There was a time and place for playing around (99% of his waking life). And there was a time and place for some serious training. None of that stupid swordy slashy stuff; real training the cool and awesome way.

Palom approaches his ~~target practice helpless victim~~ burlap sack stuffed with feathers (hopefully Hiroshi would never miss his pillow) and points his staff menacingly.]

Hah!  You think you're so cool, coming in here and beating up the helpless ice cream guy, huh? Well think again!  You're facing me, now! I'm the great Palom, magical prodigy of Mysidia!

[Electricity crackles in the air as he spins around a few times in a vague attempt to strike a pose.]

And you're going down!

[A powerful stroke of lightning lances through the skies, smashing into the burlap sack and sending it spiraling through the air, off the rooftop, and plummeting over the side.]

Oops. [Palom rushes to the edge and sighs in relief as he notices that there's no one even remotely close by.] Whew, that was clo -- Gaaaaaaah! [To rectify this boring situation, the sack chooses to explode in a massive fireball the moment it strikes the ground. Flaming feathers launch in every direction.]

[phone]
Ohhh, no one looked out their windows just now and saw anything weird, right? I mean, not that there was anything weird to see. If you saw something like that looked like it was falling, it was probably just your imagination. Haha! Who would be dumb enough to throw things off the roof?

Anyway! Not that there's anything to worry about, but I think someone might have set something on fire outside by accident - I mean, it definitely looks like an accident and it's not anything anyone should be punished for and now there might be a bush or two on fire or maybe it's a tree, I'm not sure. I'm not saying it's going to spread inside, but I thought everyone should know!  You know, in case you smell smoke or you look inside your room and it's burning up or something.

So the point is, don't look outside. Or go outside. ...Or if you're already outside, don't come back to the apartment. Unless you're burning to death, then you should probably go outside so you can roll around in the snow and ice.

............Oh yeah, ice!

[action, outside Ermis]
[Palom, the human ice machine, stands next to a cheerfully sizzling tree and drops a giant block of ice on top of it. This is repeated several times until the smouldering tree is no longer a smouldering tree by virtue of having been crushed to a dozen smoking pieces.]

Sheesh. Being a mage is so much trouble. It's like everyone expects you to do all the work just 'cause you can bend reality by thinking about it hard enough.

[Palom squints a little bit at the firewood and points his staff.] Break! [Now there are a half dozen pieces of fossilized wood.] Toad! [Miniature frog statues!  Everyone loved miniature frog statues. Palom dusts his hands off and congratulates himself on a job well done.]

They should really pay me.

[Video]

If I may have your attention for just a moment, please, I'd like to announce that the training center I've been working on is now open for business. If you ever need a place where you wish to practice your combat skills, you can come here.

[At this point, Ky gives the address, monthly subscription fee (with a special deal for those who sign up within the first month), and hours.]

I feel fortunate that I could open it at this time, considering what's been going on in the city as of late. We can never be too prepared for anything. Just please, exercise caution, and if you feel like you can't win, then withdraw. Lost pride can be restored; a lost life cannot.

[It's not often that Jaime uses the video function, if at all, but when he does? He seems pretty darn ticked off about something:]

So I WAS going to ask if people had experience with technology - specifically futuristic or alien tech - but I think I'll have to put that one on the backburner. Guys? Quick question here: say you remembered you were dating someone.

But you're not sure if you even wanted to date this someone in the first place. How the heck would you even go about it? Break it up? Pretend it doesn't exist? Try to block it out with those weird blue-things I saw about a week ago?

... Seriously. Those weird things are actually just as scary as this memory. I hear they're out and about, so be careful, and y'all? If you run into 'em, just run and get the crap outta there.

[action, private to Booster]

[There's a rather loud knock on Booster's door. Jaime's not too sure if he came at a bad time, even though he sent a couple of messages in advance, but... he figured news like this should be said aloud.]

[ooc | 3% memory regain! Jaime remembers most of the events of Infinite Crisis (which, for the sake of this post, boils down to "Booster kidnapped Jaime from his bedroom in the middle of the night") as well as some of the events in the second issue of Blue Beetle.

(He also remembers what the Scarab is and that it talks to him, but he's been pretty quiet about that.)]
