Just in Time for the Movies.

[terminalhelpers]

Characters: Everyone! (Only new arrivals are allowed in the Terminal Room)
When: Starting August 4th, 2013
Where: Terminal Room or all over town!
What: An open mingle log for everyone to play in!

Last month, there was no earthquake signalling new arrivals.

That's not a pattern; the ground quakes, the chutes in the Terminal Room activate, and Culumon trembles with excitement. There are so many lonely Digimon that had appeared recently and--finally-- their partners have arrived!

With Chosen disappearing every now and then, fresh faces will be very helpful.

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!

[rustypistons]

Yeah! That's the spirit!

And, I suppose, fight alongside each other. [Doesn't mean he has to like it. Bearmon looks so damnably eager by this change, and Ratchet sighs, offering a fleshy hand to shake.] I am Ratchet.

And I'm Bearmon.

I think they figured that one out.

It's not like you've given me any other names yet.

[bigsoftie]

No...the one who talked with you is mine.

[Leatherhead knows the feeling though. He did not like the digimon upon his first arrival.]

Maybe...if we fight this threat, it will let us go home.

[fuckinstoplights]

Yours looks like a monster.

[... Kagerou apparently has yet to realize there's more than one creature in the hallway. Good job, birdbrain.]

[That gets his attention, though, and he peers up again, through his hair.]

... that's all we have to do? Fight? Then we'll... be ourselves again?

Re: on the city streets

[jackoclubs]

Careful-- [steadying him, in case he's about to fall]

[jackoclubs]

Must not be many "worlds" out there with functional alchemy, then.

[This multiple world thing was going to take some getting used to]

[jackoclubs]

[Kaito blinks a few more times, still surprised that he happened to meet his new roommate on the street mere minutes after arriving. But once the surprise passes (and it passes quickly), he pulls up a grin]

I'm Kaito! Kuroba Kaito. Nice to meetcha, Arisato-san. Or is it Minato?

[greatwork]

And I hate every single one of them.

[jackoclubs]

That's a whole lotta hate for one person to hang onto.

[greatwork]

Fortunately, I'm not an average person.

[jackoclubs]

So you're saying you have a larger capacity for anger than the average person does?

[hellspawnedhero]

Part of it. You could say I've been around the block a few times. And the name's Dante.

[bigsoftie]

Hey! I'm adorable!

[This is gonna be a long sit in here.]

Yes...I think so.

[At least he can help him there.]

I can help you with that...

[bigsoftie]

...yes I think so.

Leatherhead.

[He looks back to Impmon, who seems really disinterested with the exchange.]

It's been three months and this chump hasn't named me at all!

[fuckinstoplights]

[Don't worry, other Digi, Hell Muppet will give you a big smile. Yes, it agrees with you.]

[But back to the pity party.]

[Kagerou's shoulders tighten, and while he doesn't bury his face back into his arms, his gaze lowers.]

I... know how to fight. But not like... [His hands clench.] Not like this. Not like a human being.

[A glance up.]

... are you a police officer? Or military?

[Those are totally the only humans who fight, right?]

[bigsoftie]

[No obviously the only ones who fight are kraang, him, and ninjas. Leatherhead is the second one. But still, it is the only way he can truly help.]

The digimon will help...I think.

No...I only know how to fight, that is all.

[fuckinstoplights]

That thing? It looks like a monster.

[And somewhere, the poor Hell Muppet seems to deflate a little.]

You know how to fight without being police? Or military?

How?

[bigsoftie]

[That word monster still has it's sting, but he tries to remember Mikey's words.]

Maybe they are monsters...because everyone else treats them that way.

I had to fight to survive.

[fuckinstoplights]

You don't. You said it was your partner.

[Hey, he remembers that much.]

... what does that mean?

[bigsoftie]

We had to learn to work together.

There was a time in my life where I had to choose something less than life...or fight those who kept me from the life I wanted.

[fuckinstoplights]

[His head couldn't have jerked up faster if it was on a string. He just stares.]

... What?

[That sounds way too familiar.]

Re: on the city streets

[fuhrinkaed]

[Sure enough it doesn't take much time on his feet before he pitches forward a bit, but he doesn't fall over again.]

I-I'm being careful... sorry about all the trouble.

[orphism]

You can call me whatever you like. We're going to be living together from now on anyway.

[He doesn't mind people referring to him casually - it shows a sense of ease and familiarity that he would like people to feel while he's around them.]

I wonder if there's anyone else, though.

[bigsoftie]

[Well if he has to explain his life, he doesn't have to explain ALL of it.]

There was a time I was a prisoner to those who would use me. I had to break free or they would continue to break my spirit. That was the choice I had.

Re: on the city streets

[jackoclubs]

[Catches him :(!]

What trouble? Like hell I'd leave someone who is obviously injured to fend for themselves on the ground in the middle of a street.

[jackoclubs]

Minato, then. I'm not big on formalities.

[Likewise, Kaito had always preferred approaching people casually, so it didn't take much convincing for him to default to Minato's first name]

As for the second part, I dunno. I guess we'll find out when we get there?
