The fog descends

[thousandcurses]

Characters: EVERYONE
Setting: EVERYWHERE
Format: Whichever you guys choose!
Summary: SHADOW EVENT IS LIVE! But basically, Izanami sends out her fog and that creates Shadows that then cause trouble
Warnings: LOTS of personal issues!!!

[Disappointment. Izanami had never felt it as strongly. To watch the other residents struggle with themselves, with the parts they deny, strength faltering. It's too much. So, the goddess has decided, it's time for them to receive a little push.

She'd gone to the cafeteria in the dead of night, just around when midnight would be. And then it's simple--to just allow the fog to spill out and cover the tower, filling every nook and cranny it can find. With it will come the Shadows, and her fellow prisoners will be forced to face themselves and grow, realize their potential or die.

It will certainly be interesting to watch.]




[[OOC: There will be threads for the days of the week! You CAN tag outside of this with Shadow stuff, though. This is just to make all the beginning things nice and tidy!]]

Naoto Shirogane [OU]

[princeofmisfortune]

[Naoto can be found wandering around various floors of the tower. If you've met her even once, it'll be painfully obvious that she isn't exactly herself. For one her attire is rather... interesting. She's wearing a dark, over sized tench coat over her normal clothing. If she wasn't swimming in it she would almost look like something you would see in a classic detective movie.

Not only that, but her entire demeanor has done almost a complete 180. She looks absolutely terrified and panicked -- a far cry from her calm, composed behavior.

No matter who you are, as soon as she spots you a wide grin will break out across her face and she'll run to meet you, waving excitedly as she does.]

Ah~ I'm so glad you're here!

[get_bent]

[And just as Kanji is about to go down to try and help out...HOLD IT.

...oh.

OH DAMMIT!!!

SHIT AND DAMN. What is he supposed to do. Stall her? Wait until Naoto shows up? Play dumb?

OH MAN OH GOD...]

...U-uh...I'm glad you think that...

[Oh gods, she's running right to him too...]

1/2

[princeofmisfortune]

[YES. YES SHE IS. AND SHE IS GOING LEAP AT YOU AND GIVE YOU A BIIIIIIG HUG.]

You are?

[princeofmisfortune]

[She pulls away and her expression has changed completely. It's sharp and accusing. The tone of her voice stern and questioning.]

You're glad I'm here, too, right?

[get_bent]

[Oh great, he could have just melted into a puddle at that physical contact, but thankfully (?) the fact that she becomes accusing snaps him right back into a semi-sort of understanding mess.

His fist instinct is to play along...and try not to blush too much. Even if it was Naoto Shadow, it still looks like her.]

O-of course I'm glad you're here! We're...

[WOW walked right into that one...]

...team members!

[Nice save?!]

[princeofmisfortune]

[Her eyes narrow.]

Team members, Kanji-kun?

[get_bent]

[GWAAACK! Shit shit, not the right answer...]

...and friends?

[Think of a distraction, think of a distraction! what does a shadow like Naoto might want...]

...y-you want a piggy back ride?

[....WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING?!]

[thanabro]

[Ryoji blinks in confusion. He's not sure who this is.]

Y... you are?

[princeofmisfortune]

[She stops in front of him, just a little too close to be considered a comfortable distance away.]

Naoto! Naoto Shirogane!

[She giggles, extending her hand in greeting. not like it's visible under that huge coat though.]

Who're you?

[thanabro]

I'm Ryoji Arisato.

[He reaches out and shakes her hand through the coat. Aw. She's kind of cute.]

[princeofmisfortune]

Nice to meet you Ryoji-san!

[thanabro]

It's nice to meet you, too! Are you okay? You looked pretty scared before.

[imperialeclipse]

Are you? I'm honored.

[He waves back?]

[princeofmisfortune]

Mhmm! Now I'm not stuck here by myself!

[imperialeclipse]

Were you left alone by yourself? No one should be...

My name's Kazuya Toudou.

[princeofmisfortune]

I'm... I'm Naoto Shirogane.

[Her eyes water and she nods her head quietly]

Everyone... e-everyone always leaves me alone.

[imperialeclipse]

[Oh so one of Yu Narukami's friends huh? Man is that entire team a bunch of attention-wanting addicts, it's pathetic.]

[Smile!]

Your friends aren't nice if they do that...Well I won't. Where would you like to go?

[geometry]

[WAIT WHAT.]

[He didn't intend to really interact with the little girl in the big coat, sitting in the corner. But it was made a lot harder once she started running over to him excitedly, and... apparently... wanted to talk to him.........]

Y-you are?

[princeofmisfortune]

[She smiles brightly, extending her hand in greeting.]

Naoto Shirogane! Who're you?

[geometry]

I, uh, I mean— Equius, I guess, Equius Zahhak, but...

[She hadn't seemed to understand his question. Why was she so happy to see him? Did he know this kid?]

What do you want with me?

[princeofmisfortune]

Everyone... everyone left me alone and I was getting scared...

[She just wants some company, Equius. ;A;]

[sixthsense]

[There's a puzzled look on her face as Naoto approaches her. She stops to look around, trying to see who she might be addressing--certainly it can't be her, right? But then, it looks like they're the only two here...]

Um...

[princeofmisfortune]

I'm Naoto! It's nice to meet you!

[sixthsense]

Oh, um, I'm Mio Amakura, pleased to meet you.

[She fidgets with her camera nervously, looking around once more.]

Um...were you looking for someone?

[princeofmisfortune]

[She shakes her head.]

No.

Everyone... everyone left me.
