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. They are also told they must read information about their current situation and a survival guide with their new omnicom. New crew-mates might see a tall dragonish guy with wings (but don't call him that) and purple 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.]

"Oh!" Beastboy instantly perked up and looked around, "well uh, there's not alot of kids, but is she related to You? If I get a whiff of our scent and she's around here I could probably track her down!" He was eager to help and move away from the more depressing topic. Plus if he could prove himself heroic even in just a little way he was game.

Kotetsu's eyes lit up at the possibility. "Y-yeah! She's my daughter! Her name is Kaede Kaburagi! If she's here, I need to find her right away! Poor little Kaede, she's probably terrified... Daddy's coming, baby!"

Beastboy shifted into the form of a bloodhound and began sniffing Kotetsu's hand vigorously memorizing the scent. A few sniffs in the air and he began trotting around the area seeking the girl in question.

Thousands of scents swirled about him like the colors of a painting (which considering dogs are colorblind was an interesting thought) People he knew, people he didn't, food, in some cases even emotions.

"Kaede! KAEDE! KAAAAEEEEDEEEEEE! DADDY'S HERE, KAEDE! JUST RAISE YOUR HAND FOR DADDY!"

If the bloodhound didn't clear a path in the people around the obs deck, Kotetsu's loud screaming certainly would.

It took a good long time, but Beastboy finally fell to the ground panting, his tongue flopped out onto the floor. Shifting back to human form he looked up at Kotetsu apologetically, "Sorry dude, looks like she's still in the pods. Not done yet."

[identity profile] grrreathero.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
"No..."

Kotetsu's expression had been steadily sinking as there was no sign of Kaede, nor anyone else he knew yet. He frowned sharply, gritting his teeth together and shaking his head.

"She's really still stuck in those nasty goo pods? Oh, Kaede..."

"Hey." Beastboy sprang to his feet still catching his breath, currently a darker shade of green then normal.

"Look at it this way dude, she's in the safest place in Stacy. And we're out here on the front lines keeping the big bad bugs from getting in. Soon enough we'll have our worlds back." He put a gloved hand on Kotetsu's shoulder, "And her Daddy will be the big hero who made it all happen. Powers or none."

[identity profile] grrreathero.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
"Maybe," Kotetsu replied, a little uncharacteristically bitter. Beastboy had a point, at least, that she was safe... but it was still awful to think about her stuck in that horrible pod. Even if she was unaware and peacefully asleep like he had been, what if she got scared? What if something happened?

He folded his arms over his chest and sighed. "She doesn't even know I'm a Hero. She'll probably think it was Bunny who did it. But, as long as she's really safe..."

[identity profile] changelingdude.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Bunny?" Beastboy asked shifting into the shape of an adorable bunny rabbit wiggling his nose and whiskers.

[identity profile] grrreathero.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
"No, not that kind of bunny... my partner, Bunny. Barnaby, really. He's blond, kind of girly-looking, more than likely being aloof and cranky? Have you seen him, at least?"

[identity profile] changelingdude.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
He shifted back and shook his head, "We've got some girly-looking men, but I don't remember a Barnaby." He frowned disappointing again. "Dude I didn't even see that one guy who usually brings beer to pod pops." He had been hoping to treat Kot to at least one.

[identity profile] grrreathero.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
"Man... no Kaede, no Barnaby. This place sucks."

Kotetsu grumbled, then turned to Beastboy and finally extended his hand. "Anyway. I'm Kotetsu T. Kaburagi. Though since everybody seems so open about this kind of thing, you should also get to know me by my other name..."

He turned around, fumbled for a moment, then turned back to Beastboy with a black and white domino mask over his eyes.

"The Crusher for Justice, Wild Tiger!"

Beastboy took the hand shaking it and blinked for a minute before getting a big grin on his face.

"DUDE! I knew there was something about you. Awesome! And that name!" He transformed into a massive green Tiger for a moment to let out a roar of approval before shifting back.

Kotetsu was not used to the enthusiasm towards his Hero persona. Usually people were too busy fawning over Barnaby to pay much attention to him.

"Yesss!" he cheered triumphantly at the tiger transformation. "WILD TIGER! THE INCREDIBLE VETERAN HERO! That's me! H-have you heard of me?"

[identity profile] changelingdude.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
He kept the same insipid grin as he declared, "Nope! But it's a big universe so I'm sure you're awesome! After all my team is awesome and I bet you've never heard of the Teen Titans right?"

[identity profile] grrreathero.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah... hah... I am pretty awesome..." Kotetsu was practically glowing, reaching up to pull off his domino mask. Didn't really matter here, did it?

"I haven't. There's only 8 Heroes in Sternbild, but I don't know how many there are elsewhere in the world..."

[identity profile] changelingdude.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"Sternbild...Sternbild...." Beastboy tapped his chin thoughtfully, "Never heard of it." He shrugged again "But geography was never my strong suit...or math, or science. I'm great at Zoology though." He grinned again.

"We've got tons of heroes here, obviously. And everyone's really awesome in one way or another. Mad scientists, wizards, kung-fu masters, old fashioned vikings too! And we've got state of the art training places, really cool ships and weapons. About the only thing we don't have is good food."

Despite the dire situation surrounding it all, Beastboy did love Stacy if only for the sci-fi adventure part of it.
