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!

[Percy is wet, cold, and pretty ticked off at the moment. He's stuck in some weird, apparently digital world - and as cool as winding up in a video game would have been back before he found out about the whole demigod thing, he's kind of got some stuff he has to get done back home - with no way to contact home, with a weird giant crab thing following him around and trying to convince him that this was all totally cool and supposed to happen.

Unfortunately, all this combined means he's prone to start making stupid decisions, which is why instead of just politely insisting that he was fine, there was seriously nothing wrong, go about your business, citizen with an oddly shaped head and a weird little... rabbit thing, he's going to start being snarky.

Without knowing who this guy was, what he wanted, or what he was capable of doing.

While he had no superpowers or weapons on hand in case this got ugly.

Good job, Percy, really good job.]

You know, just testing to see how badly you've been polluting your rivers, nothing too interesting. I've gotta hand it to you, whatever you've been dumping in here is pretty nasty, and I'm from New York. I know gross rivers.

[Crabmon, apparently taking this as his cue, decides to chime in.] Yeah!

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[Oh look at you, Percy. You're talking to a guy who knows no idea what a New York is. But he'll take your word for it on the gross rivers thing. It does look pr-etty scummy.]

Uh huh. Yannow, I hear there's devices that test for that sort of thing. I think...they're called scientists. And you're...

[He tilts his head slightly, as if measuring up the kid.]

...Five? Did I get that right?

[Gazimon puts a claw over her mouth to stifle a giggle, obviously finding this hilarious.]

C'mon, kid, let's get you out of there.

[headfullofkelp]

Fourteen. [:|

Although really, he's used to people not really having the same grasp on time that he does, so he's not super offended by it. And getting out of the water seems like a good idea, so he's definitely not above accepting help at the moment.

He grabs on to Crabmon - even if the guy was a monster, he did just jump in to help him, so he's sort of softening on the whole prospect - and reaches out to Wheeljack.]

You think you can pull us both up?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Close enough.

[When you're hundreds of thousands of years old, you start to generalize things a bit more.

That hand grabs onto Percy's, securing his legs as he pulls up.]

No worries, kid. I was in a million-year war. You learn a thing or two about hoistin' people up.

[Even if one's a crab. With a little oomph, he tugs the kid to the edge, hoping he can grip something himself to help.]

[headfullofkelp]

[Percy's immediately curious and wants to know more about who this guy is, but he waits to ask the question until he and Crabmon are safely on dry land again. He pulls himself up easily enough and then helps his partner, who doesn't look all that bothered by their little excursion into the water.] Thanks. [And directed at Crabmon, although he sounds more like he's teasing than anything else.:] And maybe you should lay off the enchiladas.

What's an enchilada?

[Percy just shakes his head before glancing back over at their quasi rescuer.]

You were in a million year war? With who?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[Wheeljack backs up as Percy gains his ground, Gazimon immediately jumping to his shoulder. Kids these days. Although the comment has Wheeljack just as confused.]

I'm with Claws over there.

[But the question grabs his attention.]

Yeeeeep. Still am.

Autobots vs. Decepticons.

[He says this like he's talking about the weather...]

[headfullofkelp]

Auto-whats?

[And to think you guys thought enchiladas were weird.]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Autobots.

[HEY THEY ARE.]

That's what I am. ...Or was. Don't really look like much now.

[headfullofkelp]

You kind of just look like a guy. No offense.

[Although there was definitely something a little weird about him that Percy couldn't really put his finger on. If they had been back home, he'd have written it off as the Mist making things look a little distorted.]

What's an Autobot?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Thanks. Much appreciated for keepin' me informed.

[He's not taking the new squishyness all too well.]

Wasn't before I came here, if ya can believe it. Was about...oh...fifteen feet taller than I am now. Could turn into a car.

[His gaze turns to Crabmon, kneeling down to him.]

Three words for ya, buddy. Giant. Robotic. Organism.

[headfullofkelp]

Seriously?

[Crabmon looks similarly confused, although he doesn't back up when Wheeljack kneels down to be on his level.]

So, how come you're not giant anymore?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Seriously. Not as flashy now, but I'm the real deal.

[His gaze turns back to Crabmon, tilting his head slightly.]

I'm wonderin' the same thing. Woke up here like this. Didn't take it so well.

He punched a wall.

Shut up.

[headfullofkelp]

Maybe... don't do that. I mean, first thing you need to know about not being metal anymore? Broken bones are pretty annoying. And, you know, painful.

[Take his word for this, buddy.]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Yeah...found that one out the hard way.

[He shakes his hand, as if it still hurt from the impact, and...well, maybe that was a bit truthful.]

Maybe you can teach him to not be an idiot!
