Rin Okumura || Blue Exorcist

[devilsfire]

[He's just standing outside the 'porter building looking completely lost. One moment he's having dinner with Mephisto and the next he's talking to some machine that won't tell him anything. Somehow he managed to stay calm through all that but once outside the building he was just...

awestruck.

He didn't know what to expect but for some reason a city was the last thing on his mind. Then again, Rin isn't exactly known for his thinking skills.]

Celestia Ludenburg | Dangan Ronpa

[yen]

...Well. I can't say I expected this. Is this supposed to act as one of your motives somehow?

[She's starting pretty intently into the camera, as if she knows exactly who's hearing this.]

Or have I escaped from your perfect high school life you made for us? It seems strange that you would let us outside... unless this is another trick. A very impressive trick.

[ex_deathflags283]

...it's safe to say none of this involves Monobear.

captain metropolis | watchmen

[retropolis]

[ Nelson is just going to take solace in sitting on a park bench with a hotdog and a soft pretzel, because food is a great solace when he's anxious and upset. Also it's easier to settle himself in that way. And talk to himself. ]

I guess I have nothing dire I need to get back to. Why not spend all my time in this city? I suppose it can grow on you if you spend enough time here. Just like anything...

[ He'll never be good with change. ]

Re: captain metropolis | watchmen

[futureleader]

Just like how mold can grow on an old man's feet?

uranus | buddy cops

[uranass]

[ There's the sound of sirens in the distance, though as they get louder it's obvious they're not actually sirens at all. It's a guy in a space suit and a jetpack, flying low over traffic and making siren sounds. ]

Eeeee-oooo-eeeee-ooooo-eeee-oooo-eeeee-ooooo -- whoops.

[ He swerves in mid-air and hovers, hands on his hips. ]

Dang, did I take a wrong turn somewhere? This place is practically a ghost town! Where's the monster?

[straightlaced]

[ Hands on his hips from the street. Just. Staring. ]

Morticia Addams | The Addams Family | don't judge me

[femmeincharge]

[ Where ever you are right now, whatever time of day or night it is, you will suddenly find that the temperature has dipped several degrees lower; that the lights have dimmed to cast full, dramatic shadows and that somewhere in the distance, a slightly discordant tune is playing.

Out of the shadows comes a woman, stunning and pale, the black of her clothes seeping into the surrounding shadows. She lifts her head and smiles sweetly, the red of her lips brilliant against her skin. ]

Hello. I seem to have lost my way.

[aggressiveapathy]

[Officially the best office day ever.]

Are you a sexy vampire.

[yen]

My. How stylish. I'm afraid I can't give you many directions myself, since I've only just arrived.

[foreshadower]

So you have, perhaps I may be able to offer assistance.

Cerebella || Skullgirls

[hatoverheels]

[ Looks like the circus is in town, or part of it, at least, though it's amazing that outfit manages to stay on. She could pass for a street performer, but is it just you, or is that hat moving?

Yeah, okay, one of those giant hands has just tapped a passing pedestrian on the shoulder. It's definitely moving. ]

[paintsthetownred]

[ oh hey isn't that familiar

she taps Cerebella on the hat :| ]

Ain't you recognisable! Anybody coulda spotted you from miles away with a hat like that.

[ She snorts. ]

Though you're the mafia's circus girl, so I guess you gotta get dressy an' all!

Handsome Jack | Borderlands 2

[handsomejack]

[VIDEO: Here he is. A man with two different colored eyes with what looks like a functional moving mask on his face. And yes, its quite handsome. Anyway. He's drenched in blood. And there's laughing. LOTS of laughing. It takes a while for it to subside, but when it does.]

Pheww... haha Oh. Man. Did I need the pickup after all that bullshit that went down. I want to believe that it was just a really fucked up nightmare, but the blood soaking my clothes tell me those bullet holes in my chest were damn real just a few seconds ago.

So much for Hyperion technology- as amazing and well managed it is- I thought my goose was cooked. It fails me, and here you are. In all your mechanical splendor telling me "No worries Jack, we got this."

I could do without the whole interdimensional thing.... but hey, I'm ALIVE, so I'm not going to complain. I needed this small victory after such a devastating blow to my plans and ambitions, even if it was out of my hands.

I won't let you down, City. [He grins... the kind that you don't know if it's good or bad] You said this place needs a Hero, and well, you got the one to have.

[viced]

Oh we did? Good, it's not like we're swimming in them left and right already. So what can you do?

fuck it the Illusive Man | Mass Effect

[howillusive]

[Welp. Welcome to the City, Mr. Illusive Man. He's just gonna stride around with a mangled face, exploring a very primitive Earth. No big deal. Hell, he doesn't even address the network, but he's got a pack of cigarettes and two legs, and he'll make his way around just fine while he explores. ]

A wandering minstrel I — A thing of shreds and patches.

[voxpopuli]

Interest piqued and rather pleased that my passion and yours align in such a purposeful manner that neither/nor and either/or of us will be forced to lead the the other along the primrose path.

Rather, accepting Screwtape at his word, we shall both take the gentle slope, soft underfoot, and wind about until an amenable place is found enabling us to affect those minute particulars and bring about that green and pleasant land.

spam ain't breaking hiatus

[yelloweyesdarksomething]

I think you might want to repeat that, mister. We're walking barefoot in a weird place with flowers or something...?

Charlie McGee || Firestarter

[charring]

[So. There's a redhead and she's seated on a bench with a coffee. And she's watching everyone that goes by, even if she isn't looking at them directly.


She doesn't know where she is. She doesn't know how she got here. She doesn't....seem bothered by this. There are reasons for her being at ease in this situation, none of which she's divulging.

She just looks relaxed and totally okay with her subtle people watching.

Nothing to see here. Move along. Just an unimportant, average, every day redhead.]

[hexappeal]

[Subtlety is her game, as is the occasional round of people-watching. Zee just slithers up beside her and crosses her legs, allowing the silence to drift in just long enough that it's comfortable.]

Lot of weird people here, huh.

[ofmyth]

[Thor is blending in as well as he always does.



Which means to say he's standing on a street corner, towering over everyone like a giant blond tank, trying to discover who is behind this latest kidnapping. ]

[liverletdie]

[ Is that. Yep. That's Thor. Coming in for a landing. ]

Thor. How long have you been standing there?

wakfu | eva again FRENCH IS HARD AND MY LIFE IS HARD

[blondewithabrain]

Tell me, is there anywhere in this city that might be suitable for target practice? The parc is big enough, certainly, but it wouldn't exactly be safe.

[roublard]

Far away from me.

RAGMAN, DCU

[notbagman]

Yes, I am a hero. Yes, I'm willing to help.

But could you at least get my name right? That's really insulting!

[The comm identifies him as "Sad Sack"... :(]

Re: RAGMAN, DCU

[exceptionallybright]

You should have that corrected immediately. Such mistakes may end up causing serious damage to your brand integrity.

Rin Tohsaka || Fate/Stay Night

[gandere]

[ Hello world. This might be considered a culture shock for a lot of people, but not for today's heroine. After all, she's been raised from birth just about to use magic, has dabbled a bit in a dangerous war at the age of seven, performed open heart surgery (in a sense), and saved the world (at least her own) before her eighteenth birthday. Appearing in a strange new country/world seemingly out of nowhere? Definitely the fault of Second Magic and one she's not going to question just yet.

Oh no, for there were greater things on the mind of this magus. What could possibly be the most dangerous threat to someone who risked her own life to save someone who didn't deserve it?

This. In fact, she's holding up the communicator much like someone from the nineties would. Currently it's closed up, adding to the hilarity of the scene. Having been told using this would get her the answers she needed, her frustration is well placed. ]

Stupid thing! [ And there it goes flying through the air in frustration. Sure hope that device is sturdy. ]

[swordedpast]

[ CATCH.

At least, that's the most appropriate succinct summary of what happens when Archer steps out, reaches out a hand, and grabs the flying communicator out of the air.

Was he really lurking in a corner or something, waiting for just the right moment to jump in and make his presence known to Rin? Because he was too awkward and pensive about her arrival to just show up and talk to her normally?

No, of course not. It couldn't be anything like that. He just wanted to find the best way to troll her, that's all. ]

It's only a device, Rin. It can't be stupid. That is the province of human beings.

[ Oh. He's looking at her when he says that. ]

johnny cade || the outsiders

[kickedpuppy]

I dunno what this place is, but it sure don't look like Tulsa.

Hey, Ponyboy? Where're you hiding, man?

[tuff]

Dunno, kid.

[Dally reaches into his jacket, retrieving a pack and offering one to Johnny.]

You seen Two-Bit or anybody else we know?

felicity worthington || gemma doyle trilogy

[glinting]

[On the video is an icy blonde who manages to look both threatening and bored.]

What's all this foolishness? I've other, more pressing matters to attend to, and if you know what is best for you, you'll send me home this instant. Otherwise I'll be forced to unleash great horrors upon you, and I assure you that you will not like it.

[psychomancy]

F-Fee?

Cheria Barnes | Tales of Graces

[flashmaiden]

[There's the smell of delicious home cooking wafting through the air. It's coming from a stall serving grilled chicken and veggie kabobs! Behind the counter is a cheerful looking girl, talking to anyone who is interested enough to come over and talk to her or grab a plate of food. Every so often she turns around to put more food on the grill and fill up more disposable plates with various delicious goodies.

The sign on her stall says "Free meals for all! Please take a plate. ♥ CB" If the sign isn't enough to grab attention, occasionally she'll call out.]

Oh, um- hello! Would you like a plate? There's plenty for everyone.

[professorlionface]

[Walking through downtown while in possession of a sensitive nose will always invite an assault of a variety of scents. If you can push past the urine and the garbage and the odor of everyone around you, the food stands out on the street presents a particularly delightful experience. Choosing where to eat your lunch can be like a game of sorting through the selection of aromas until you find one you're in the mood for.

And sometimes you just pass one that advertises itself as being free. Hank adjusts his glasses as he peers up at her sign to make sure he hadn't misread it.]

I have to wonder how you meet your overhead with this kind of a stunt.

Harley Quinn | DC Comics

[folieamor]

[Harley has acquired two things upon her arrival. The first is her means of communication. She has it turned it on now, chewing thoughtfully as she squints at it. This is a Very Serious broadcast. It's a dramatic pause.

The second thing is a bagel, which she is both eating and acquired while holding a cafe at gun point. She promised to pay later, of course. This is completely acceptable. She swallows. ]

This ain't Gotham and I don't remember signing up for a free vacation. [another pause. ] Not much of a vacation either, no one can take a joke.

[hedera]

[Well, that was a lovely vacation from being the semi-responsible one.]

Harley, this isn't a vacation at all. Did you even bother to pay attention when you got here?

Codex / Cyd Sherman | The Guild

[egohalfempty]

[ Hi, City! Meet your latest hero: a very pale redhead who is just staring into her communicator with a look of total panic. And maybe tears. There might be tears she's trying really hard not to cry. Okay, let's be real, it's Codex. OF COURSE THERE ARE TEARS. ]

W-

Wh-

Why me?!

[batsmeow]

Why not you?
