Characters: Everyone interested in getting back into their body
Setting: 9/18, after this post (may be extended to following days)
Format: Action, prose, whatever you'd like to go with!
Summary: Dax Is A Bro and left a clue. Now it's up to the Tower residence to unite and figure it out.
Warnings: None as of yet, will be adapted as needed.

[After making that post - the first he is aware of - Riku just sighs (one that turns into a cough all of sudden... don't tell him he's coming down with something on top of everything else?!).

There is really no telling how many people will follow his call out, but hopefully there will be some at least. And hopefully they will have more idea what this clue means than he does.

He turns his seat towards the entrance of the floor. Time to see who would turn up.]

Arrival/Mingling (9/18)

[powerforfriends]

[You know the drill(?).]

Let's-figure-this-out-party (9/18)

[powerforfriends]

[Let's put our heads together!]

[dragonspooker]

[Lina is here - she hasn't been swapped, but some of those close to her have. And besides, this involves undoing Jason's work. Anything that's defiant of him and his little 'experiments' is a worthy cause to throw in with.

However, she looks pretty impatient, just standing around.]

When are we gettin' this thing moving, eh?

[It's mostly a rhetorical question. Mostly.]

[worldlycheckmate]

That would be when more people arrive, Lina-san.

[Yeah... Yu has been swapped, and he doesn't look none too thrilled about it when he's trying to ignore the tickle in his throat.]

[dragonspooker]

[Lina stares at this...strange fellow that she doesn't recognize for a moment, and squints for several seconds before finally sighing in defeat.]

...alright, I give, who's in there?

[worldlycheckmate]

...Yu Narukami. We met once or twice before.

[Honestly, could they just get "Hi, My Name Is" stickers already? This is getting old.]

You mistook me for a noble before, I believe?

[...KIND OR IRONIC, IN HINDSIGHT.]

[whathehellisagigawatt]

[ Check her in to this. She's coughing into the sleeve of Doc's yellow jacket with his futuristic clothes and feels...sort of awful-- okay, no. She feels a lot awful and it's because her being in this body is harming a friend in some shape or form. She really hopes that they can fix this before it's too late. ]

Hello. I am here as promised. [ Her voice is a little raspy before she clears her throat.

Along with her is Doc in her body as she goes to sit down in a chair somewhere. ]

[dragonspooker]

[Yes, those would be good. And much better than letting Lina get frustrated enough to write people's names on their foreheads with magic.

Lina looks again, and eventually laughs - though it's an awkward one.]

...well, looks like I get to do that all over again, ahaha...ha...ha.

[worldlycheckmate]

['...Actually I'm starting to think this guy is of royal blood.'

Does he say that, though? Noooope... Something tells him that would likely not be a good idea. So instead he just chuckles... before it turns into a cough. At least he remembered to cover his mouth.]

I-it would seem so.

[jasonsaloser]

There's a strange antsy feeling at coming to a big meeting like this - Sayaka struggles to figure out why, but lets the matter go and stubbornly makes herself cross the threshold into the meeting room.

She watched the video about - well, probably twenty times before coming here, and combing Jason's conversations with the other tower residents was a given. That video... ...It was hard to watch without remembering other trips to similar rooms she'd seen people take. And taken herself.

"..We have a week."

Ledouche in Yu's Body

[manipulatedthefool]

[And of course, Lelouch's here; considering the memories he's been getting, it's only natural for him to be here-

...

Well, Yu-

And Izanagi kinda dragged him here too.

FHL.]

[dragonspooker]

[Lina takes a half-step back at the coughing, and raises an eyebrow at it.]

Does the change come with a cold, too? Or did you get a bad body?

Oh, hello me.

[worldlycheckmate]

[And guess who else is here?

Yeah, that's right. It's the guy standing right in front of you and actually acting similar to how you actually do. Except for the fact he is here because he knew you would wind up being dragged here by his other and true self.

Enjoying being him? Because he certainly is not amused by the memories he's been getting, either.

FTL.]

[worldlycheckmate]

[He clears his throat.]

No... I'm beginning to think it's part of the side effects of switching bodies.

Theory #01254

[thisisdisastrous]

I have watched this video many time, and I believe I have figured one path we can take to solve this issue! Obviously we are all terribly affected by this terrible event, and we need to solve it quickly, in which case we will die! Obviously this is a worse case scenario, we may as well simply have our psyche and bodies damaged beyond repair, and then be left to live empty lives for all eternity!

[ Hello, this android acting out of character? That's totally Doctor Emmett Brown. ]

We need the liquid Jason has been using on these poor children- I suspect the same has been done to us. If two individuals who have been experimented on by Jason were to do the exact same thing again, then one can theorize we would be back in our normal bodies! All the side-effects would end once we would be back home, so to say!

[ Doc pauses and looks around, nobody has paper and pen over here? ]

There are many issues that have to be solved though, I'm afraid. For one we do not have that substance, and I'm theorizing this may be a substance similar to that contained in our collar so we may be facing an impossibility!

And would we be to get our hands on the substance, we need to find which color needs to be injected in which one of us, and once more I suppose this is linked to our collars! I suspect this step can be easilly solved through logic.

[dragonspooker]

...and how do you propose we figure out which substance is the one we need, huh? Trial and error? Who in their right mind is gonna step up to be a guinea pig to figuring that out?

[thisisdisastrous]

I never suggested we go that far! I believe we may have some time to find which substance we need. But would we fail to scientifically deduce a way out of this situation, I know I am volunteer if need be!

[endinsentiment]

[Why is he even here?]

[Ah, right. The moment he'd seen the message (he's never even used those stupid terminals before; clearly it was a habit of Sora's, or perhaps his heart was just irritatingly impulsive) he'd been filled with the insatiable need to...]

[...Help.]

[But now that he's here, that seems like less and less of a good idea. Plenty of the faces in this room, he's fought with before. Hell, plenty of the faces in this room he'd generally screw over for the fun of it.]

[He keeps his mouth shut and his head down, expression sour as he watches everyone talk. At the very least, he can listen and gain a little more understanding on the situation.]

Location?

[dreamingmessiah]

[Aleph clears his throat.]

I did a bit of searching. It looks like 3-15 is the place where the switches occurred, since the beds there are in that position. I think a more thorough sweep of the room would help.

[whathehellisagigawatt]

[ Yeah, so that coffee she was drinking to soothe her throat? Totally went spraying everywhere after that, followed by a brief coughing spasm. ]

Doc, that is absurd! Let us just... think of ways before we decide to be a hero.

[thisisdisastrous]

[ Goddammit Sertoria, be careful with this body! He still needs it when that'll be over. ]

Of course, I forgot to mention the possible sacrifices are worse case scenario, but we have to anticipate them in the case we do not find a solution before it be too late!

[sageprincess]

[Zelda had her own little conversation with Jason, and the results have left her... tense, to say the least.

So while her proper-as-ever posture likely leaves enough evidence that she hasn't been switched, there's still an air of anxiety and discomfort around her that says she's just as eager to fix this as quickly as possible.

(If only so she can stop jumping at shadows Goddesses above any one of her friends could be Ganondorf this sucks--)]

[dragonspooker]

[Lina sighs, then covers her face with one hand, rubbing at the ridge of her nose with her thumb and pointer finger.]

Well, at least you're willing to try it yourself - but yes, do remember that there's going to be someone else tied to this as well.

[dragonspooker]

[Cue one knee-high stinkeyecurious stare outta Lina for a moment, before she opens her mouth.] Hey, Princess, that you in there?

[sageprincess]

[Hahaha... hey there, Lina. Funny seeing you here after what happened earlier this month...]

Yes, it is. It seems I am one of the fortunate to escape participating in this "experiment" this month.
