New Arrivals Digicards On Mario Karts!

[terminalhelpers]

Characters: Everyone! (Only new arrivals are allowed in the Terminal Room)
When: 3 JUNE 2013
Where: Terminal Room or all over town!
What: An open mingle log for everyone to play in!

Last month had been relatively calm, with only a new Dark Area being found.

But once again, that calm was disrupted.  For the third consecutive time, an earthquake tore through the Digital World. One on the scale of the one that had brought so many of the current Chosen to the Digtal World. Once again, dozens of Chosen were making their way to the Digital World. Destiny was calling once more and so were their partners.  Mayhaps even some of the Choosen that have been here for a while, have predicted this to happen, today.

Every chute in the Terminal Room activated while the small Digimon known as Culumon trembled with excitement. There were so many lonely Digimon that had appeared recently and--finally-- their partners had arrived!


OOC: Feel free to mark your characters in different locations! They can be just arriving in the Terminal Room you read about in the arrival post or anywhere on the map! Also feel free to mark the day for each thread. You can also request to play with Culumon, too! Have fun, guys!

This place sure is different from Akibastar.

[ After meeting Lucemon, Yuuko took to walking around. She knew that going to her room and meeting her roommates were important, and probably what she should have done first, but she found herself more captivated by the surrounded city. There was a need to get herself acquainted with her surroundings and the people like her that were taken to help out. What was it called again? "Chosen Children" or something like that?]

Yuuko, just remember to leave enough time to greet your new roommates.

[Meeting Lucemon was quite the event. Personally she thought she'd have gotten a girl, but a boy digimon works too. It would be weird to live in a place where the contract wasn't valid. She couldn't even remember when she had interactions with men that wasn't just hand-shakes or beating them up. Regardless, so far Lucemon seemed pretty okay.]

Understood, Ruumin, but I'm kind of starving. Do you know where food is around here?

I can help you with that-- 'Ruumin'? Did you forget my name is Lucemon?

Of course not! It's a cuter, shorter nickname.

[sonati]

[Sonata had taken to going on daily strolls around town when there was nothing else to do, dragging Penguinmon with her, of course. She's still planning to sneak out of the city with Makoto at some point, but it hasn't been worked out yet, and they... need Orine's help, as well to keep them from being eaten by wild Digimon.

That's... definitely a familiar face that catches Sonata's attention, though, and she's quick to drag Penguinmon with her as she scrambles to follow Yuuko to make sure it's not an imposter.]

[centerrotation]

[She didn't notice the other following her, paying more attention to the sights around her. It was when Lucemon stopped and turned, looking back to make sure he didn't miss where he was leading her, that he saw the scrambling girl approaching them.]

Well, isn't she in a hurry.

Who's in a hurry?

[She turned to see what had caught his attention and brightened as she saw the familiar face. Quickly her arm shot into the air, waving at Sonata as she called out to her]

Ooooi, Sonata!

[Lucemon, however seemed sort of confused for a moment, but then soon smiled] Ah, you have a friend who's also chosen. How fortunate.

[sonati]

[Well, that seems legit enough for Sonata!]

Yuuko! Look, Slowpoke, Yuuko's here, too!

I can see that well enough, thank you. [Penguinmon only cares if your friends are sane or not, Sonata.]

[centerrotation]

I just arrived. Are you alone or are more of the others here?

[What were the odds that other members would also be here. Now it wont feel as lonely. Lucemon was standing next to her quietly.]

[sonati]

Grumbly and Orine are here, too! Orine's been here the longest, Sonata thinks.

[centerrotation]

So it's all understudies.

[She smiled a little at this. Of course it would be these girls. Her attention turned to Sonata's Digimon. They really were all different, weren't they?]

This is your partner?

[uniquevalue]

[ Considering their potential plan to venture outside the city, Makoto thought it would be best for her and her partner, Bokomon, to gather some supplies first in case of emergency. That attempt, however, somehow ends up becoming a trip for them to get a hockey helmet... just in case some stray digimon decides to have taste of her head... Already questioning her own purchase, Makoto decides to try it on anyhow-- which is also the moment she sees Yuuko and calls out to her out loud in surprise. ]

... Yuuko-san!?

[centerrotation]

[Although she wasn't expecting people to recognize her, hearing her name warranted not as much surprise one would expect. Yuuko turned around, looking towards where the voice came from to fine Makoto standing there. She blinked shortly before her face brightened considerable. That ridiculous head gear didn't detour her from picking up Makoto's distinct pessimism and shock.]

Hey Makoto, what's with the helmet?

1/2

[uniquevalue]

[ Well, it's embarrassing enough to be caught with this helmet already... Makoto is more than a little reluctant to share her reasons as to why she got the helmet in the first place... ]

Umm, well, it's to... to... [ Thankfully(?), her partner is there to say it in her stead. Bokomon means well, really! ]

To protect her head from being bitten when she goes out of the city! Makoto's really worried about that for some reasons...

--Hey!

[uniquevalue]

[ and she frantically takes the helmet off as tries to change the something more important (and less embarrassing) aka Yuuko's well-being. The last time Makoto saw Yuuko was when she disappeared before they had to retreat from Akibastar, after all... ]

Never mind that though! Yuuko-san, are you alright?! You're... not hurt, are you?

[centerrotation]

Yeah I'm perfectly fine...

[She didn't understand the worry since, but she figured it was warranted in some manner or another. What did catch her attention, however, was the threat of heads being eaten. So she turned to pose a question to Lucemon]

Is there really digimon who'd do that, Ruumin?

I would suppose she means the bigger, more dangerous evil digimon out there. I don't think they eat heads though.

[He was also rather confused by the notion and turned again to eye Makoto in curious wonderment.

1/2

[uniquevalue]

[ Bokomon just shrugs and shakes her head... Really, her partner is just too much of a worrier ]

I told her the same thing so many times, too. She still feels worried about it, anyway...

I-It's better safe than sorry! And... you know, it's to protect against other stuff, too!

[uniquevalue]

[ But hearing that makes her feel a lot better. Her eyes might now just be a little watery from of relief of hearing at this point. ]

But that's such a relief to hear... We were all really worried about you when you disappeared at Akibastar...!

[centerrotation]

After I disappeared?

[She had to think about that response for a moment or two before it clicked.]

Do you mean when I tried to go Center Nova? You've seen me since then, though.

1/2

[anchi]

[ Orine likes coming out when the new arrivals come. She thinks company can be a little bit comforting in a confusing situation at least. Well, that's how she felt when she first arrived here. So, since it seems there have been new people arriving, she's out walking with Salamon in her arms as per usual.

However, she comes to a complete halt when she spots the familiar successor. ]

That's...

[anchi]

W- Wait! [ She calls out in hopes of getting her attention. ] Please, wait, Yuuko-san!

[centerrotation]

Hu?

[Her and Lucemon both turned to see Orine there not to far away from them. Yuuko smiled and halted to turn and walk back over to the girl instead, Lucemon following close behind]

Yo, Orine. What are you doing here?

[anchi]

Eh? Well, I-

[ Gosh, Yuuko, that's what she wants to ask you! But, no, she's having a hard time trying to figure out what she wants to say here. ]

There's new arrivals I think and- Yuuko-san, did you just arrive here today? Are you alright- [ ... Annnnd, since she can't decide on one thing to start at, she's kind of rambling here. ]

[centerrotation]

Yeah, I did. I just got here not too long ago. [She leaned forward, looking at the other girl.]

Let me guess, you came to greet all of the new arrivals?

[then_there_were_none]

[Flandre still hasn't gotten over the fact that this dream was so colorful--and the sunlight just felt pleasantly warm, not burning or itching in the slightest. She had no idea where she was, of course, but that didn't matter right now

The little vampire was sitting on a bench, with a vaguely dog-shaped fluffball that might have been a Salamon leaning close enough for her to pet it without reaching too far. She seems to be either scratching its floppy ears or combing its fur with the little claws she has for fingernails, it was hard to tell. But the creature seems to be enjoying the process!

Flandre was close enough to hear the end of that, and she perked up a bit. Her wings, previously all folded up on her back, fluttered out into view where the sunlight could catch the prisms. The sight distracted her a moment--but, no, she was going to ask a question!]

You gave yours a name? A different name, I mean. I didn't know you could do that.

[Though that did seem a bit odd to her; there were so many of these creatures, how did they tell each other apart, if not with a name?]

[centerrotation]

[ It was the lights dancing that stopped her first. They showed yo so suddenly, but then there was a voice calling out to her. Even if she turned to find the person the voice belonged to, her sight stayed on the prisms of color before her. It was a good shine, one that she was not afraid to appreciate for what they were.

The girl turned out to be just as interesting looking, Yuuko though. A smile formed on her fact at this, as she nodded, motioning to Lucemon who seemed to be flexing his own wings.]

It seemed like the smart thing to do. I don't really know how many other Lucemon could be here. Doesn' it seem better to call out a special name rather than "Yuuko's Lucemon!" or something like that?

[Lucemon on the other hand, shrugged his shoulders a bit. He wasn't so much resigning as he was acknowledging that she had a very minor point despite his distaste.]

[then_there_were_none]

[Flandre's wings still for a bit while she tilts her head, then turns her attention to Salamon for a moment.]

What should your name be, then?

[The creature opens one eye, though doesn't otherwise move.]

I told you! I'm Salamon!

But what if I call you salmon by mistake? You're not a fish!

[...she wasn't quite sure what this creature was exactly, but they were most certainly not piscine in nature. Salamon frowns, then raises a paw to its face to direct its whispers towards Lucemon.]

Do you know what a Salmon looks like? I don't know that Digimon.

[Though judging from the frown on her face, Flandre quite readily heard that too.]

[centerrotation]

[ Lucemon shrugged, a bit confused as well. He had never heard of a Salmon before. Did it look like Salamon? why was a missing the a?]

I've tried to explain it to my partner as well, but she seems set of this weird nickname instead of calling me Lucemon.

[Yuuko, on the other had was sort of laughing to herself.]

The information said something about evolving and changing, didn't it? It would just be too confusing to call you so many names. We'd lose track.

[then_there_were_none]

It looks like a fiiiish!

[Flandre pulls the creature's paw out of the way to squish its face and mouth into something that might have looked like a fish's mouth if you squinted and turned your head to the side.

It's a real testament to how much Salamon cares when it doesn't flip out or do much more than make a few garbled yips.]

A salmon is all silver and shiny and has fins and spots. And it lives in water, so it's not like you at all.

[And, inspired by what this person said:]

How about I call you Cyrille? I like Cyrille.

But--! [Though that's about all the canine fuzzball manages before Flandre squishes its cheeks again.

Fortunately since her unnatural strength was gone that didn't hurt, but oh the indignity.]
