[Normally, Yoshika would be introducing herself. Introductions are always a good idea, after all, especially if you're going to be living with a bunch of strangers!

But as it turns out, there's a slightly more pressing matter at hand...]


I CAN'T MOVE MY ARMS!

(no subject)

[ACTION]

*Already the whole situation seems like some sort of a bad reality television show; he just shows up there with no memories, and is somehow expected to buy the idea that memories can be just extracted from little green jewels. And he's not even given any opportunity to verify this for himself personally, since they won't allow him to work in the lab for his anemoi. So here this boy is, in his black school uniform and his long white scarf, flicking through the smartphone options.*

There has to be a library around here somewhere. If they're not going to give me the specifics on how anything works here, I'll find them myself.

[VIDEO]

I suppose it's custom to introduce myself according to the techs, so. My name's Hiroshi. And that's all I have. I have to say this whole anemoi thing sounds terribly unscientific, but I guess I don't have much of a choice other than to roll with it. For now, anyway.

Also, is there a "Palom?" I guess I'm his roommate.

First Card

[Action]

[There's a new face in town! But that's odd -- there haven't been any messages over the communicators. Is this guy just technologically impaired or something?

No... he's definitely checking it regularly, and it doesn't seem to frustrate him too much to look through the posts. So what's the deal?

Well, in any case, if you're close enough to ask that question (or shout it, even) chances are he's realized you're there and giving you a wary look.

Bug him anyway?

[Action; Later]



[Hey Booster! Guess who just barged into your room?]

...Tch. So I've got a roommate?

(no subject)

WHO: Erk and Madoka
WHAT: Cleaning up the mean streets. Or houses. That may not be that mean.
WHEN: Last week, 10/26
WHERE: If a perfectly usable house is left to decay over years, who's the right crew to call for the job?

Cleaning up... )

01 ⚜ [video|action]

So this is how the mortal world ends. [ A soft spoken voice accompanied by a gentle sigh afterward. ] Well, that's what I would prefer to believe. That this is the after-life because how could a person forget everything about themselves? I'm scared.. because what if I can never recover what's been lost? I want to know about my parents, my friends, my life.. What did I enjoy doing at school and was I ever in love... yes, those are the memories I need to remember right away.

[ Lifting one of her arms in the view of the camera briefly, she looks over the bandages that are covered in her blood. ]

Oh. [ The realization hits her quick and she hides her arm again. ] Could you put my mind at ease and maybe tell me what you have remembered?




[ Later in the evening as the sun begins to set, Caren can be found wandering along one of the harbors aimlessly. It seems she has no real goal in her steps as they often change paths. It doesn't appear as though she's exploring much of anything though, golden eyes staring off at something in the distance. ]

Just how often do people remember things in pieces? Has anyone been able to recall a full memory, without any gaps?

The first thing I've been able to remember since arriving here... I can see the scene clearly, and I can hear a person talking to me... [Saying things that warm her heart, that seem to soothe a deep aching she wasn't really aware of until now. But she's not going to tell anyone else that.] But I can't remember this person's face, or their voice. It's like I'm talking to a shadow, and it's talking back through an audio filter... [Mami sighs. It's difficult talking about this, but at the same time, it's... nice? The memory is making her heart ache more and more whenever she thinks about it, so she needs to get it out somehow. And also...]

Also... has anyone ever heard of a "puella magi"?

((1% spent on the conversation prior to and the promise Madoka made to become her puella magi partner. Doesn't remember who exactly she was talking to, though.))

[ Bam! The video turns on to show one bodacious blonde bombshell. She seems pretty chill despite being a brand new arrival and dealing with all that entails. ]

Weeell! This is one hangover for the record books. I've woken up in strange places--or at least I assume I have; it sounds like something I'd do! I think--but waking up in a strange world sure is a new one. Er, at least, I assume it's a new one. For all I know I might do this for a living! Wouldn't that be awesome? Sliding from one world to another, probably solving peoples' problems in the span of a convenient thirty-minute time slot before traveling to another.

[ She seems to have excited herself and is now a bit bouncy, in several meanings of the word. ]

Hmm~~ I think I'll assume that's what I do until I get proven otherwise. Better than drunkenly stumbling into another dimension, anyways.

So!

Who's gonna offer to help show a lady around? The name's Excellen (I think) and I'm apparently a smoking hot babe (which I am a-okay with), so hurry it up and help out a lovely damsel. First come, first serve, ladies and gentlemen, so please be courteous and form a line!

[ As if to prove her logic with evidence, she winks at the camera and shakes her hips for the audience. ]

[Video]

Could anybody tell me where I could buy a bow and some arrows? I haven't seen any shops for them, but I haven't explored the whole city.

[Video; filtered to Rin]

Hey, can I talk to you for a second? I just remembered something kind of important.

[Action]

[Eventually, Shirou finds an archery shooting range. He can be found there, shooting arrows at the target. With his focus, he's able to hit a bulls-eye every time.

Approach?]

SO I HEAR YOU LIKE PSUEDOEVENTS [text]

Mokona's new job is running the Job board!

It goes up two times each month, so look out for it near the apartment doors!
If anyone ever wants a job done for them, just tell Mokona and she'll put it on the board!

This time, there are six jobs!

Helping People Jobs

- Farmer Murphy has lost a goat! She has floppy ears and a black patch on her nose and she loves eating petunias the best! He wants someone to find Maybell and bring her back soon!

- Farmer Carol's orchards are super full this year and she needs someone to help pick all the apples before they all get frozen! She'll take as many extra helpers as she can, and she says she'll throw in a bag of apples along with regular pay! She gave Mokona some for putting up the job; and they're really good!

Big Jobs

There's still a lot of wrecked buildings outside! It's safe, but there's no nice places to live yet. And that means that there's always a lot to do!

- The streets are really icky out there! They're covered in rubble and need to be cleaned! It's a long job, so it's good for someone without anything else to do! It's a really big job, so up to two people can do it. It's long and tough, so bring a friend to work and talk with! There might be anemoi in the rubble, and you can keep any you find!

- There's a big house near the walls that's dirty too! It needs to be cleaned up so people can do things with it. Again, it's a job for two people who really like housework and repairing things! You don't need to worry about water or lights yet, but everything needs to be clean and painted and not broken or rotten or anything.

Scary Jobs

- There's a big mean bird that keeps messing up gardens and scaring pets! Mokona's not walking home alone from now on, too! It's big and yellow and goes "WARK WARK WARK!!" It's not too good at flying, but it can jump high and runs really fast. People say it might be nesting near the old movie theater, since lots of feathers show up there.

- Sue Salvatore has a spooky ghost in her kitchen and it's really annoying her! If anyone is good with ghosts, they should go to her house at night and ask to see it!



((OOC: This is 100% mod-sanctioned; y'all, and you know what that means! FYI in this case it means memories. Or at least memories in some cases! It is pretty much like in RPGs where you collect all the chickens and you don't know whether you're getting rupees or an empty bottle or a basket full of live fish until you do it.

I'll be rolling out results via random number generator to remove bias, and even if they don't get anemoi they will at least get a nifty bonus item. What Mokona says doesn't necessarily mean that there absolutely will be or won't be anemoi attached to a particular job. It is a wonderful grab bag of memories and fun.

Some jobs have a Mod NPC associated with them! In this case, the ghost and the goat assignments do. The bird is a feral chocobo and can be NPCed by players.

As stated by Mokona, if you want your character to request a job, go for it! Heck, if you yourself just want a certain job up there, just PM or Plurk at me! I'm gonna be doing like twelve of these per month, I am always up for new material and I rarely bite.

And if there are any further questions, ask away! Also feel free to plan OOCly in here for now although if things get huge enough I'll probably start putting up a separate post for that sort of thing.))

[ Does Madoka look nervous? Good. Because she is. With a nervous smile that keeps trying to run off her face and unable to look straight ahead. She hesitates before finally deciding what to say, how to say it, and that she's brave enough to talk. ]

I- um.
My name is Madoka. Um... I just got here. I don't remember much else but uh I guess that's the point... I'm not sure how much of a help I'll be to everyone but I'll try.... I don't remember having any specific talents, though... so I don't know how much good I'll be at a job here or... anything else...

[ She sighs. The more she talks the more pathetic she feels. ]

But um! Sorry to bother you, I just wanted to say hello! And um... I'll do my best so... If you need anything... if you need anything, then please let me know! Th-thank you for your time!

[ and the feed cuts out. ]
