Nngh...did I go and get myself hacked again? The nerve of that guy...

[A robot in a school uniform with white blouse and houndstooth skirt frowns, slowly getting up from the ground. This place is unfamiliar to her, and she can't figure out where it is in regards to her last location.]

Mitsuru-san? You around?

[Or maybe possibly...]

Yu? Chie? Teddie? Anybody?

[She's worried. Without her friends, what will people think of her? Are they gonna try to take her away? Shut her down because she's dangerous?

No. She's gonna stand up for herself. She's more than a weapon.]

[ yu spots the strange looking girl from across the plaza, his attention drawn a bit to... well... her unusual appearance. for all intents and purposes she looks like a pretty cute girl, only... is that metal sticking out of her?

that school uniform is familiar too. doesn't it look just like yasogami's? he's busy mulling that over when he hears his own name called out... ]

I'm here.

[ ...he answers pretty much instinctively, not even registering how strange it is that she'd be asking for him. then again, maybe she means someone else? ]

I'll tag you more tomorrow, it's late for me! :)

[testsubject031]

[It is indeed Yasogami's! She thinks it suits her pretty well.

Labrys picks up a familiar voice and turns her head towards Yu. There's no mistaking it, that's him. The voice and visual scan are a perfect match!]

Hey! Looks like I get to see ya sooner than I expected! [This is awesome.]

I can tell this ain't Inaba though. I think we're too far under the water for me to figure out where this place is. Is this your home turf?

[Must be pretty neat to live underwater.]

no worries, sleep well!

[banchou]

[ oh... does this girl actually know him? that's strange... he's pretty sure he would have remembered if he'd ever met her before. based on her uniform she must be a classmate, but he can't recall ever meeting her at school... ]

Looks that way. [ she seems so happy to see him it's a little hard to point out that he doesn't remember her. ]

No... I just got here a little while ago too. It's some magical underwater city.

[ admittedly, no one's ever described it to him as "magical" before. but he's not sure what other word would be a suitable descriptor... ]

[testsubject031]

[A magical underwater city? Let's see here...]

Sounds like fun! I've never been this close to fish and stuff. So where's the rest of the gang?

[banchou]

[ the rest? she must mean his friends... ]

Yosuke and Rise are here too. [ adachi as well but... he probably doesn't warrant mentioning. he pauses, considering his next question carefully, before finally deciding to answer it anyway. ] Do you know them?

[lunaria]

[Well, that's not a body "type" he sees very often, but Kurow casually hovers on over to Labrys. Calling names in that tone is a typical sign of a newcomer, and he should help those in need.]

Hey! Looking a little lost over there. You must be new.

[testsubject031]

[Huh, this kid's not afraid of her at all. That's kind of nice.]

Yeah, it looks like I am. Where is this place?

[lunaria]

This? [He raises his arms, gesturing to the whole of Vatheon.] This is Vatheon, a city under the sea's surface. It's kind of sudden, but you can say that you were brought here for a pretty special purpose -- we all were.

[testsubject031]

A city under the sea... [She never thought it possible. But here it is, and humans can live in it just fine.]

What purpose is that?

[riddling]

[He's certainly not any of the names that she calls for, but he thinks he fits the bill of anybody well enough.

So, Boris circles around the girl from behind, ears twitching on top of his head, piercings and chains all a-jangling.] Yeah?

[testsubject031]

[She did ask for anybody! She's a little surprised at his appearance, but not too much. She's not one to judge, considering she's made of metal.]

You one ah the locals, kid?

[riddling]

Nope. I'm from somewhere far different than this place.

[A magenta tail flicks.] Like you, I'm guessing.

[testsubject031]

Yeah, it looks that way. I can't tell where I'm at right now.

[ex_wolfbrother668]

[Perrin has seen some pretty strange folk in Vatheon, but this one probably takes the cake. She may be mostly human-shaped, and he did meet a boy with a metal arm, but all he can smell on her is metal. She doesn't smell like a living thing at all.

So pardon the baffled staring. He's just not sure how she's walking and talking.]

[testsubject031]

[She's as artificial as they come, but she does have a heart and soul...and quite a strange accent.

Labrys feels his eyes on her, and matches his glance.]

Hey! You! I need to ask you something!

[And she waltzes right over!]

[ex_wolfbrother668]

[He has been feeling strangely lately. Could his sense of smell be acting up? But she looks so mechanical, too...

Oh. She's speaking to him.]

Ah... Yes?

[testsubject031]

I think I was on the fritz for a bit, and I lost track of my friends. Have you seen a lady with a big fur coat waltzin' around? Or a shirtless guy with a red cape?

[handshakegreeting]

...You refer to Narukami, correct?

[Oh, well at least this person seems alright? In fact, they don't seem bothered by the mechanical parts at all!]

[testsubject031]

[Oh hi there! That's really cool of you not to call her out on it.]

Yeah! You a friend of his?

[handshakegreeting]

[Eh, she's a little more freaky past her own illusions.]

You could say I am an acquaintance, yes. He used to pass by where I worked every day.

[testsubject031]

D'you know where I can find him? I'm kind of lost at the moment.

[shotarcana]

[Plaza-wandering around this time, to great new people and trawl for new Social Links!

Here's one right now. But... Mitsuru, huh? Well, that could easily be a coincidence, but... Something about this person...]

Hi, there.

[testsubject031]

[Oh? She seems like a nice person...]

How's it goin'?

[shotarcana]

Ah, it's all right. But what about you? This must be confusing.

Who's the Mitsuru you were asking about, by the way...?

[testsubject031]

It's confusin' alright.

Her name's Mitsuru Kirijo. She's my handler, I guess you could say.
