New Arrivals: Let's Have Some Fun

[terminalhelpers]

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

A calm had swept over Terminal Tokyo, as the Chosen Children had successfully repel the Beemon attack and began to clean up their city. All was well and life would go on, though some scars would take a while to heal. But as the saying goes, there is no rest for the weary.

Another 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...

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!

Around town

[One of the things about cracked ribs is that it's important to get exercise and breathe properly, or else you'll end up with pneumonia. Shepard is out on a walk with Monodramon today, trying to avoid lung dysfunction.]

[And to check up on any new arrivals, so, convenience!]

Yeah, I can show you. But I gotta warn you, everything's in Japanese.

[sawhell]

[Ed peers at this lady oddly for a moment. Is there something off about the way she's moving?

...Nah, it could be his imagination. His partner's out of breath, he can hear that without even turning round, and he's pretty sure by now that there's nothing wrong with her.]

Japanese? [The word isn't familiar, and doesn't exactly roll off his tongue.] So not in the same language everyone's speaking here, is that what you're saying? Why's that?

[renegadedriving]

[. . . He's never heard of Japanese? Man, this place just keeps getting weirder.]

I think we're all speaking different languages, to be honest. But the translator can't handle the written stuff, and everything is in japanese because that's the local language.

[sawhell]

[A... translator? Like an interpreter? He doesn't remember hearing about those - or hearing any signs of them, which he expects would worry him more if he had a better handle on what the hell is going on in this place, but that kind of leads him back to the initial problem.

He frowns.] You sure don't sound like you're talking some other language to me, lady.

[renegadedriving]

[Close but no.]

Yeah, I'd get used to that. Everyone speaks the same thing here. How advanced is technology where you're from?

[sawhell]

[Despite everything he's painstakingly pieced together about his country's culture and history in the past few months, Ed can't help but feel a small twinge of indignation on its behalf.] Nothing on the stuff they seem to have here, but advanced enough. What're you implying?

[renegadedriving]

[She raises an eyebrow.]

Where I'm from, species-to-species translators are standard implants. I was wondering if there was any chance yours was the same.

[sawhell]

Species to...?

[He glances down at his right arm for just a second. If that's not what this lady means by "implants"...

Well, he'll add that question to the pile; it's not the one he cares about most right now. He shakes his head irritably.] Listen, just point us in the right direction and we'll get out of your hair. I'm an alchemist. Any foreign language is just another kind of code.
