1st Wrong Turn

[roamsaimlessly]

Characters: Ryoga Hibiki & Anyone!
Setting: Dorms/Dorm 2-02 and literally any floor in the tower. (You pick the floor?)
Format: Whichever
Summary: Ryoga makes his debut in the tower while following his lost boy ways. Hopefully he makes it to the cafeteria?
Warnings: Perhaps some extreme comedy/overreacting, and possible violence!

[Dorms/Dorm Room 2-02]
[Ryoga was in disbelief that his world was destroyed because a note told him so. More like this was a challenge and someone was trying to provoke him into a fight. At first he thought that someone might have been Ranma but--Ranma wouldn't have forced him into this atrocious suit…would he?

First thing first was to locate his belongings and that in of itself took longer than necessary, but hey! At least he was in his own clothing now! Some of his things were missing from his hiker's backpack like the tent and portable stove top and some other small traveling utensils for when he camped abroad, but everything else was there!

Next was to get out of here. Ryoga did manage to make it out of the dorm room, but the dorm floors were another story. He must have visited at least every room and then some only to wind back in 2-02 again. This was not the exit…if only he had a map. Ryoga left his dorm again, and did a near repeat of the first travel experience of visiting nearly every dorm room again.

FINALLY, he had made it off of the dorm floors. Now to find a way out of here.

((ooc; Changing things up here. Since Ryoga can canonically be on any floor I choose, it would take too long to prompt how many floors he can actually be on, so I want to do a grab bag option. You pick the floors and I'll tag him being there. n_n It would be so much easier this way for Ryoga just to intrude on whatever normal routines your character does on that floor.

Also, to anyone on the dorm floors at the time. Feel free to tag him being lost there. orz He seriously can't find his way out of a paper bag even if you pointed it out to him.))

Comments

[It didn't take Minato very long before he notice a new resident--a new roommate--in the dorm room. To be fair, he would eventually notice the noise and small racket anyway.

Minato peeks inside and see a young man, possibly around his age, looking for things. Most likely belongings.]

...Hi.

['sup, new guy.]

[roamsaimlessly]

[Sudden person enters!]

YOU! Did you do this?!

[Cause it's not funny!]

[evokingfool]

[New roommate and they automatically blames him. Yay?

Minato shake his head.]

Being responsible for bringing you here? No, it's not me.

[roamsaimlessly]

[Thinking things through wasn't really one of his strong suits.]

Then explain to me, this! [Flashed the letter.]

[evokingfool]

[In contrast, Minato usually think before he do anything. Except in battles and life-or-death situations.]

Of course. Which part of it do you want me to explain? I'll explain it to the best of my knowledge.

Stairwell - around the 87th floor

[fragileprophet]

[Though Ion didn't necessarily want to complain about his job, he was having a bit of trouble keeping up with the job as a Security Officer that he had been assigned. It was a bit silly...giving someone a job that required lots of running around very quickly...but Ion had been determined to do his best to make it work. Anise had told him to stay put when he finished, having been assigned to a floor clean across the Tower, but...Ion being Ion, he hadn't.

He was fairly close to the top, wasn't he? How hard could it be to make it back up to the dorms to rest? Without a crutch to stand upon, the Fon Master was groping at the walls with heavy breathing and blurred vision before very long. Still, he climbed upward, despite his better judgement, even though he had to stop every now and then to blink back exhaustion and nausea.

This had happened before, and Ion had been chastised for resting where it was dangerous. Even though he could feel the strength giving out in his legs, and it took everything in his power to continue to hold himself up on wobbling knees, the green-haired boy was nothing if not stubborn, at times.]

[roamsaimlessly]

[Ryoga, naturally, was wandering aimlessly and he really had no idea how to get out of this ridiculous tower. It felt really large and he lost track of how long he had been traveling for. Though eventually in all his traveling the lost boy crossed another who appeared to be to weak to move on. Normally he wouldn't, but Ion, you look like a girl. Out of concern he approached her.]

You don't look so good. What happened?

[fragileprophet]

[Ion looks up at the young man who addressed him, as much of a battle it was to lift his eyes when his head felt like it was being pulled down toward the ground by bags of sand. A small, apologetic smile quirked at the corners of his mouth, and the green-haired (girly) boy leaned even more heavily against the side of the stairwell.]

I'm afraid...I overexerted myself...

[His feet slid as his knees buckled, and Ion crumbled to all fours against the stairs. Frantically, he blinked back the spots that had begun to blossom across his vision. He'd give anything not to faint. That would be such an embarrassing first impression.

And would also earn him a lecture from Anise.]

[roamsaimlessly]

[This wasn't good! Ryoga couldn't just leave her here to fend for herself, what if she was dehydrated, or sick! It was a man's duty to tend and comfort a lady in need.]

I'll help you!

[That and Ryoga was just a kind person by nature who only showed spite when he was crossed. The teen knelt down to pick Ion up, bridal style so he would no longer have to exert himself with a tenacious task like walking. Which Ryoga happen to do a lot of.]

Where were you heading?

meadow

[melodyoftheabyss]

[ Tear made it a habit to venture floors daily, and today it seemed like one of those days where she wanted some peace. The meadow had enough greenery for calmness, and the simplistic view of it kept her at ease.

Tear's usual habit was sitting and gazing endlessly at meadow, taking in the small fragments of the illusions she was seeing. Each and every illusion felt almost as real as the last. The Tower was a strange, complex place, that she had yet to fully understand. After a while, she started to sing her song, the same one she sung for all her friends and the same one that she sung on her first day in the Tower.

It had a been a long time since she was able to smile as she sang her song. Her brother as safe, and so was Luke. A great handful of her allies were all safe and sound. Tear couldn't possibly ask for anything more. ]

[roamsaimlessly]

[What's with all these floors looking like landscapes? Wasn't this suppose to be a tower or something? The more he walked around, the more lost he got. He has yet to even make it to the cafeteria with the way he kept switching from going down stairs, to back up, to back down again. It was impossible for him to navigate successfully.

The singing to catch his attention however, and she was nearby, in sight actually! Ryoga needed directions anyway. Unfortunately for her beautiful melody.]

Excuse me. Do you have a moment?

[Ah, she was kinda cute too. Hopefully he wasn't imposing too much.]

[melodyoftheabyss]

[ Tear cut her singing short when she was approached by someone. She didn't think she ever met them before. She certainly hoped it wasn't another person that claimed to know her. It would only make it discomforting for her, because she didn't remember them. Luckily, it didn't seem like the person knew much either from the looks of their face as they said that to her. Tear offered him a small smile before speaking. Regrdless, she still kept her guard up juist in case. ]

Yes? Is there something you require?

[roamsaimlessly]

Could you direct me to the exit of the tower.

[He was humble enough when requesting for her help, and being that she was a woman, Ryoga was even more sensitive about how he would act around her. He was always concern about the feelings of a woman, so he would do his best to be considerate of her feelings and try not to upset her somehow.]

[woodpeckermaruta]

[Hasn't he...

...seen him pass by, before? In fact, he's quite sure he saw him twice, already. The Deadman blinks after the stranger, until...

Oh, he's coming back through. Ganta slowly raises a hand, and speaks in an unsure tone.]

H-hey, uh...

[Is he looking for someone?]

[roamsaimlessly]

[This was normal behavior from Ryoga.

He paused.]

What is it?

[woodpeckermaruta]

It's just... you've been going in circles. Are you looking for someone?

[He's giving an honest curious expression. Not a judgmental one.]

[roamsaimlessly]

Actually [that too but] I'm looking for a way out of here.

Library

[musubi]

[Isamu might not be making a mess this time, but he's sitting up on one of the tables rather than in a chair. It's almost as if he's doing it out of spite, even though that one girl isn't even around. (Spoilers: He is.)

He looks up from a book on hallucinogens as Ryoga walks by.]

In a hurry to find the sci-fi aisle?

[Because there's nothing back that way, man.]

[roamsaimlessly]

[He doesn't know where he is. He's been wandering all day!]

No. Could you direct me to the exit?

[Chances are he'll go the opposite of where you point him though.]

[musubi]

[The question itself gets a raised eyebrow from Isamu, and he glances toward the door.]

...To the building or to the room?

[roamsaimlessly]

Out of this tower!

[He's asked many people and they all tell him the same. He refuses to believe he's stuck here.]

Cafeteria

[great_king_of_evil]

[ There is a certain King of Evil at the lower floor of the tower. And he already misses the coffee Riki had so generously provided them with last month. Tea was already in poor tastes, but pumpkin tea probably beat it all. Ruana had such terrible tastes and a poor sense of management, it was a miracle that tower was still standing.

At least thanks to the food he found in the Oasis, he didn't need food. This being said, Ganondorf was standing near the entrance, the cup of tea in hand and looking at it with curiosity. He was wondering if he could create a spell to transform tea into coffee.

... Probably wouldn't work. ]

[roamsaimlessly]

[By some miracle, Ryoga was able to make it to the cafeteria, but it would only be a matter of time before he got lost again to some other location.

He was feeling rather hungry but this oatmeal. Nothing about this was appetizing, like...nothing! Ryoga was use to eating food that was less than good, and when you traveled all the time you had to.

Least to say Ganadorf was approached, he had his oatmeal, but he was still lost.]

Pardon me!

[great_king_of_evil]

[ Needless to say, Ganondorf barely spared a glance at the newcomer that came to approach him. Oatmeal? Oh, probably one of those people who couldn't get over the taste of the oatmeal.

Not that Ganondorf like it himself, but at least he had gotten over it. Turning to him, he spoke in a formal tone. ]

Yes?

[roamsaimlessly]

[Ryoga didn't find him very intimidating, and if he was suppose to be, he wasn't fazed.

Nope, he's just going to bother Ganondorf like he does everyone else.]

Is this the first floor?

[Have a stupid question.]
