Investigate all the things!

Characters: Naoto and YOU.
Setting: Starting in room 2-03 and then wandering about the tower!
Format: Prefer brackets because I'm lazy, but I'll match.
Summary: DID SOMEONE SAY GIRLS? Because I'm totally a boy, just so you know.
Warnings: None that I can think of!



A. Room 2-03
[Naoto was sick. Very sick. Sick to the point that her days had become nothing more than hazy moments of lucidity while the fever continued to wreck havoc on her body. Stasis was no longer an option, is was a necessity and her confusion upon waking was more than understandable. The sleep paralysis was unnerving, her eyes darted around the room, taking in every inch that she could see from her current position. This was not Sphere, she knew that much, and she doubted that she was in Inaba. This room did not remotely resemble anything from home.

As soon as she was able to move she was up and looking around. The letter next to her bed caught her eye first and she sat back down to read through it. The news did not come as much of a shock to her considering Sphere had told her much of the same -- not so much that the world was destroyed completely, but that the world had succumbed to the virus and fell into ruins. What did come as a surprise was her current state of dress. The jumpsuit would not do. Next on the list: FIND APPROPRIATE CLOTHING.

This proved to be easier than expected as the trunk by the foot of her bed contained clothing from home. She was pleasantly surprised to find her revolver and some ammunition along with some other items that she had not seen in quite some time. She changed as quickly as possible, immediately feeling more at ease now that she was no longer in a skintight garment.

She searched through her trunk once more, pulling out a small notepad and a pen small enough to fit in her pocket and holstered her gun. TIME TO INVESTIGATE.

B. Around the tower

[Naoto has started his investigation and can be found wandering the various floors observing and taking notes. He's pretty occupied, but you may find him heading in your direction to speak with you.]

Excuse me, do you have a moment to answer a few questions?

[Nina has been... distracted... in the days since the broadcast. But it hasn't overwhelmed her so completely that she can't manage a pleasant smile when a young man addresses her.]

Oh! Yes, I do. What do you need?

[She thinks she knows what he needs, actually. She hasn't seen him before, and suspects he's probably new.]

[Willow comes back into the room from her excursion with Echidna just as Naoto's looking through his trunk. She stops short in her tracks.]

You must be my-- ... roommate? [Her obviously male roommate, it looks like.]

<3!!

[Shaking his hand politely, if still confused.] Willow Rosenberg. Aren't you kind of young to be a detective? And also-- male?

To be here. Not to be a detective, but to be-- in this room. Since I thought dorms were by gender...

[Chidori senses the approach before the question comes. Because she senses a Persona user- one she's never sensed before- and turns, expecting a S.E.E.S. armband and a confrontation.

What she gets is someone who looks astoundingly like Minato but- the voice is different, and the cacophony she usually senses from his multiple Personae isn't present. So cautiously, she inclines her head in a nod, expression impassive.]


...of course. I take it you have just arrived?

[identity profile] floreatnoctem.livejournal.com 2011-11-29 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
I was here for a time before, then returned to my world for a brief period... I have only just returned myself.

[She's giving him the most scrutinizing of looks, wondering if he can't sense what she is as well. Then again, only certain types of personae were capable of that, so she could not blame him if he couldn't. But he didn't seem to be S.E.E.S, and he didn't seem to know her, so that made her all the more suspicious.]

I would not advise attracting too much attention here.

...yes. what is it?

[Another person taking surveys. An individual named Cain had gotten him before this, so he at least hoped the person was collecting somewhat useful information. And would make such information available at a later time.]

[Whoops, totally hadn't meant to be as enormously rude as she'd just been. This is definitely real life, because this always happens to her. Willow winces at his lineface.] No no, I'm sure you're great at it, really, I just-- am all surprised they let you join at that age. Must be different in Japan, cause the police, not so trusting with the teenagers where I'm from. [She's just biased because they always write up vampire related deaths as "impalement by barbecue fork".]

I just got here, so I could be wrong. But I was pretty sure. [She's frowning in thought. This is really taking her an embarrassing amount of time to come up with an answer.]
ocariness: (Sideglance.)

B. Obvs.

[ You have just encountered another trap a highly androgynous elf. Wielding sword and shield and bow and arrow, no less.

What has Link been doing today? ... Oh, you know. Just archery practice, to get her mind off that weird broadcast earlier. She lowers her bow upon seeing Naoto, offering a polite smile. ]


I'm afraid all I have here are moments I can spare. How can I assist you?

[ ... Definitely got a medieval elf over here, yup. Down to the green tunic... ]
ocariness: (Silently.)

[personal profile] ocariness 2011-11-29 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
I see. I am Link, and I would be glad to answer what I can for you, though I am sorry you have been taken as well.

[ ... Link just tilts her head at the extended hand, entirely unaware of social customs. This is unfortunately also quite obvious when Naoto mentions being a detective.

Okay, she just has to ask what that is. ]


... I apologize, but... I have never heard of the title "detective".

[ Was it some sort of royal title? Like King or Princess? She has no idea. ]
ocariness: (Thoughtfully.)

[personal profile] ocariness 2011-11-29 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh! That makes sense, then. Link rather thought that Naoto wasn't dressed like royalty, anyway, but then, she didn't truly know much about the world to begin with, even her own. ]

You bring the evil to justice... then we are similar.

[ Sounds like an idea she can get behind, anyway. As for where she's from, well... there is a slight pause. She supposes it doesn't hurt to tell him. ]

If you mean my kingdom... I suppose that would be Hyrule, though my home is the Kokiri forest near it's border.

[Her suspicions confirmed, Nina nods.]

Unfortunately I haven't been able to find many useful things myself, but I can tell you this. I don't think the people trying to save us have our best interests in mind.

You should be careful wandering around, too. Some of the floors here are dangers. And... [She pauses.] Lately strange things have been happening. But I get the impression they happen a lot.

I even met someone who said that he had died. Twice. And come back, both times. [The young woman seems very unnerved by this.]

[Oh boy. This is going to take a while.]

...the tower has been in existence for approximately six months... or, at least, that is the longest duration of time anyone has spent here. ...it is owned by four individuals who post things to the tower's computer network sometimes, but are never seen in person... and since the tower is prone to... technical failures... it seems as if they are the ones trying to resolve the situation. most people here think quite the opposite. ...if someone dies... they are revived at the beginning of the next day.

[That's all the basics he can remember. But his mun is kind of in a rush so he might get a flash of insight later, when she has more time.]

[Her username comes from reality, she feels guilty about everything...

Anyway. She listens intently to this description.]
It must be really important to you, if you keep trying despite all that.

I got here earlier today-- oh. [Her eyes go wide.] Oh oh oh. So you're... [Embarrassed for real now, but there's really only one reason someone that looks male would be housed in the female rooms. Willow pushes on stridently, determined not to say it aloud if he doesn't want to.] I'm Willow Rosenberg. Sorry about the-- um, everything. Just a little taken aback to be here, still.

[A small child in a huge cloak turned round and nodded at the man politely. Taiki had been trying not to be too frightened after the strange broadcast but it was difficult and he was homsesick too. Still he was incredibly polite as he answered.] Of course, what did you want to ask?

[identity profile] floreatnoctem.livejournal.com 2011-11-30 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I do not believe they meant it in terms of the actual planet- but rather in terms of civilizations. But yes, I did return.

[She pauses here for a moment to consider the question, lips turning slightly downward in distaste at remembering the state of things.]

It was like... as if the entire world had been burned from the inside out. Like one of those terrible post-apocalyptic movies. It was rather like that.

[She considers the next question, and then shrugs.]

I do not know if it was exactly because they brought attention to themselves. But some here were experimented on. Altered physically and in terms of their abilities. It was... quite unpleasant to behold.

[L pauses in the corridor, taking in the boy's appearance--and the fact that he was armed--at a glance.]

"A moment." Yes, I suppose so.

[He has nothing but time these days. As to answering the questions... maybe.]
