'Meat' 'n Greet

The rest of the crew assembled on the Observation Deck to meet the latest editions to their numbers. After the revelation that their worlds are gone, many of them are even more eager to see people they knew from home.

Several people are set up near the doors to provide the new people with omnicoms and comm rings. New crew-mates might see a green-skinned alien and snake girl among their number. There are also several authoritative-looking figures ready to introduce themselves.

There's a lot to tell the new people. It's going to be a lot to take in.

[ooc: Only new characters and Command Staff can start new threads for introductions, to limit the number of threads. Everyone else, just tag in and have your guys greet the newbies.]

What might be a surprise to some is the fact that Jono readily reciprocates the hug. Not as tight and not for long, because he's really not touchy-feely at all, but Jubilee's different. Always has been.

Not near as glad as I am t' see you, duck, he replied, turning his head a bit so that he could press his cheek to the top of her head. Reckoned you guys were in the pods an' all, but didn' know fer sure. Not until now. Which meant that maybe there were others in there.

"Ten...you're ten. Eh," Tsukasa said while he shrugged, "I've seen odder things in my time."

What, you mean like the Joker Undead? Or the AR versions of Kiva and Hibiki?

"Yeah, I'm not entirely sure why I'm still in my older form, but it must have been due to when I was taken from my own world." At this, Negi sighed, looking a little downcast.

"Aw c'mon aniki, don't fall into depression now. I'll go look for the age candies, you wait right here." With that, Chamo leaped off his shoulder and scurried back to Weapons and Possessions.

"He's always been like that," said Negi, pressing a hand to his chest and muttering the keyword. There was a short bamf of smoke and a kid swimming in the now oversized plantsuit was standing there.

"Aw, you're cute!" Tsukasa said, rubbing his hand in Negi's hair and also getting a closer look at his glasses at the same time.

"About those spectacles...are they for reading? They look quite small."

He took it and replaced it on his lapel. "I have to be if I'm going to convince anyone we're not just bloodthirsty monsters. I'm the first any major hospital has knowingly hired. Most people, if they come in conscious, aren't too happy about it." He just hoped he didn't make this guy mad. He was probably more used to the life in the shadows vampires used to lead, until recently.

Negi flushed at the headrub. "My sister gave these to me. I wear them for reading and daily use."

"I do have fairly good vision without them though," added Negi. "Helps to read mostly though."

"I'm just making sure," Tex said, nodding a little at the response. The question got a shrug. "Apparently? All the other AIs in the system don't really have bodies, and my best guess about mine is that it was too wrecked to use. You're lucky."

"There might be more. Keep an eye out; it seems like some universes are pretty popular."

After speaking with Spike, Sam took to wandering. He still looked for anyone familiar, and even expected to see his brother's head sticking up over most of these people's. But there was no sign of anyone he knew. He felt anxiety begin to rise, and forced himself to stuff it down again.

On the outer edges, he found a woman standing there, looking about how he felt. So, he approached, in a lab coat with an ID tag, the plant suit, and pink sneakers. Maybe a little conversation would help everyone.

"Hello, there," he said in a friendly tone. "My name is Sam. It looks like we're in this together." He offered her a hand to shake.

Sasami nodded at Paula's question. "Yes, I'm... I'm trying to find my sister, Ayeka... o-or anyone from my world."

Matt may not have known if anyone was around, but at the same time, she couldn't give up. Not now.

She blinks, eyes shifting to the smaller creature. A small grin lights on her face, the image of a very similar rodent bouncing about the Great Hall at the behest of Professor Moody's wand coming to mind.

"We're on a vessel in the middle of the Nothingness between Dimensions. Her name is Stacy. She's very nice as long as you follow the rules." Her tone of voice indicates that she fancies herself quite informative on this matter. Whether or not that's true depends on the creature's ability to understand vagueness.

After a second's hesitation, only because it was so unusual to have someone happily offering her their hand, Iliana took his hand in her own, gloved one, and gave it a firm shake, with a little smile. It was her professional smile - she could at least plaster that on her face however crappy she felt on the inside.

"Iliana Maier," she said, and cut herself off before she could add anything else. No reason to go spouting off about PsiCorps. "It seems so, yes."

"A ship with an AI. Huh, you don't see that every day and even in fantasy," remarked Chamo, taking a drag of his holo-cig.

Negi decided enough was enough and snuffed out his own with a flick of the fingers. "What sort of rules are there?" he inquired. "Certainly not dangerous ones?"

"A-Are you sure I could stay there?" Sasami asked, a bit worried. "I mean, i-if someone else needs it more than I do, I can stay out..."

"I wouldn't dream of putting you out to live by yourself," said Matt seriously. "The bus has plenty of room, and several dozen rooms to be filled. And there's many classrooms to do things in; swim, play music, exercise, read..."

A beat. "An entire kitchen..."

His smile widened a bit when she responded. His risk seemed to have paid off. "That's a lovely name," he replied, falling into old habits. He was always such a horrendous flirt in high school, that even being married didn't keep all of those habits away. Maybe it would help keep things lighter than all the doom and gloom it was right now. His left thumb fidgeted with his wedding band a bit.

"We are just bloodthirsty monsters, git. What sort of vampire are you? Working in a hospital." Spike shook his head. Sure, he wasn't bloodthirsty anymore, but he was the exception rather than the rule.

Tenaya couldn't help but wince at the memory of how Dr. K had defeated her twice with the same tactic. If it was possible to have PTSD from a violin, Tenaya had it.

"Trust me, you really don't."

Kyle felt a familiar presence, and the voice certainly tipped him off. Turning around he was a little surprised how much older she was than he remembered. At least Tycho had warned him. "Hey there Jaina, and yeah it's me."

"Thank you," she said, with a warmer smile. It seemed out-of-place to be making small-talk at a time like this, but it was oddly calming. "I have no idea where it came from, but I have always liked it."

She tilted her head to the side, regarding him with curious interest. He seemed normal enough, as far as she could tell. Of course, she was keeping her mind tightly locked in - she wasn't even getting the vague surface emotions that she normally didn't bother trying to avoid. It was ... cold and lonely inside her head with her own thoughts, but she didn't feel up to relaxing, not yet.

Ben saw the wince and he nodded. "I'll keep that in mind."

"Well I suppose it's a fresh start. Stacy's got a lot of things here, and I'm sure you could find a place to stay. There's also a bunch of groups and teams here as well, given that you just need a place to crash for the day or what not."

"The whole Temple? They took the whole Temple, and didn't bother to steal me some pants too?" He laughed as he asked the question. "You know what I'm just going to stop asking stupid questions now. "Why don't you tell me more about these Sensoriums?"

Yue idly scanned the crowd for any faces she knew, or knew her. Or anyone that seemed interesting, or had a very powerful magic about them. Things that she could learn from, talk to, and were not idiots. That was her main concern for now.

Then Yue spotted a face she knew, was interesting, and if the books were correct carried a powerful magic. And as she knew, this 'child' was no idiot. "Me Armet!" A sword appeared in Yue's hand as she put herself in line of sight with the multi-named terror, High Daywalking Vampire, longstanding bounty head, the creature you speak of to get bad children to go to bed. "Dark Evangel. I would not think a creature of your reputation would be labeled 'Champion.'"

Yue did not know the beast personally, but read about it in her search for information on where she was from, the Thousand Master, and his son Negi. A picture was included in the sealed records, a proper picture. Not the usual images of illusions she cast to insight fear, but the real form of the most feared Vampire known to exist. There was mention in some sealed files that the Girl Queen of Darkness was sealed by Nagi, but the details were not full.

"We have a desert world in my universe, but I'm sure Luke has told you about it." He raised an eyebrow as she talked about her order. There were Force traditions other than Jedi back home, but this was something completely new. "Bene Gesserit am I saying that right? You're peacekeepers like us? But you can't use the Force?"

This gives it a little pause. Luck was superficial, but it acknowledges this information with a nod. "You were granted a mobile platform previously," which in and of itself was surprising to Legion, "Could you not download into a new one?"
