... Cobalt-san!

[OKAY CHANGE OF CHANGE OF PLANS gonna be making a beeline.]

[we_meet_again]

Do you see anything you think we can even start to repair, here?

[starting to explore, looking into piles of rubble and so on]

Dr. Yoshioka — the lab coat guy back in the hanger — was on the comms a minute ago. He says the dorms need repairing, too, so if we don't see anything here, we can check there next, maybe.

[ WELCOME TO.... HELL ]

I'd look down while you walk.

Re: Comms

[wonderlandgirl]

I'm by myself, I'm--

[--BEING SUPERSEDED BY EVENTS APPARENTLY]

--oh!

Re: The Church

[offontherightfoot]

[The graves yawn open, empty. There are no names on the headstones.]

[The man with the megaphone trails after her as she walks.]

What brings you here, child?

Re: Comms

[we_meet_again]

—Oh! I see you!

Re: San Francisco

[wonderlandgirl]

It was like that where I was before, too...

[She sighs.

[Maybe just fly everywhere in future.]

[offontherightfoot]

[You catch it out of the corner of your eye - a flash of color, nestled back in the ruins. Green fabric, it looks like. It's not lying crumpled on the ground, but stretched out tight, like it was placed on purpose. From here, you can't see much else. You'll have to make your way around the wall.]

[coming over to meet her]

Are you alone? Where's everyone else?

Re: Out of Order

[offontherightfoot]

[When you're done, it looks super secure!!]

Re: San Francisco

[hissterics]

Was that the other wrecked-looking place, or is it all like this?

Re: Comms

[wonderlandgirl]

Honestly, I'm okay... I just met Cobalt-san and Sabre-san, so I'm sure we'll be safe together. You don't have to worry too much, then.

Where are you?

[we_meet_again]

[ ! ]

[Hmm hmm gonna check it out!!!]

Re: Comms

[backstory]

I'm trying to board up a room back where we started at the moment.

Where do we all plan to meet back up at? We should have a set location and time.

Re: Out of Order

[backstory]

[ WOOHOO

He's going to go back to the hallway then. And then head West. ]

[offontherightfoot]

[Someone's created a shelter, here in the ruins.]

[Only one wall of the building is still intact, but someone has managed to craft a makeshift tent against it, from an awning and what looks like a tablecloth. It's small, but it's standing, and that's more than can be said for most of the rest of this rest of the place.]

Re: San Francisco

[wonderlandgirl]

Oh, we're all okay...! Since we were looking for Hurricane-kun, we decided to split up, so we'd cover more ground.

I don't think any of us have had any luck yet, though. Maybe we should look somewhere whole.

[hissterics]

I dunno how all this dumb magic stuff works, but... if we fix something in here, is that supposed to be like fixing his heart?

I've never seen any of this before... which must mean it's from wherever he came from before.

Re: Comms

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ a small, humorless laugh ]

They're definitely not small, no. Apparently these creatures are from outer space--they're the reason Hurricane's home world is so screwed up. They're very, very dangerous--if you see any unharmed, you should let us know and retreat immediately.

Re: Comms

[backstory]

There is a room back where we started that is in disrepair. I've been trying to board it up properly to prevent anything from getting inside that would not be welcome.

The City in the Day

[offontherightfoot]

[The streets of Tokyo-F are clean and lively. Here, the plants are real, but the buildings are empty, just like in the real city. The people walking past are faintly blurry, more the idea of a crowd than a crowd in actuality. You may catch sight of faces you know; you may even catch sight of you.]

[Near the exit to the WEST, the streets become dingier and less bright, the buildings damaged. To the NORTH, you catch sight of someplace you think you know.]

[There are three exits: NORTH, WEST, and EAST.]

Re: Out of Order

[offontherightfoot]

[You head out the doors and into the city.]

[we_meet_again]

I... I think it might be? It looks familiar to me... I think I saw him dreaming about this place once.

[before he can explain that, he points]

Oh, what's that?

Re: San Francisco

[wonderlandgirl]

Mm... it was. Maybe we just picked the wrong bits to search... I'm really not sure why I thought he might be here.

Re: San Francisco

[we_meet_again]

Yeah, maybe not wro— ...

[he trails off, looking at something]

What's that?
