Following you awakening and talking with a few of the members through the communication systems by way of the three kind people who had awakened her, Nezaitben realized how the crew was stuck in a terrible mess.

So many of them felt sad and depressed. Considering the entire ship, it wasn't too hard to see why. The next day, there had been an unusual amount of magical flowers spreading all over the ship. Nothing that damaged the controls (she might be naive in the way humanoids were, but Nezaitben was no fool either) but they were found in the most unexpected of places. Her own awakening area was now blooming in a flower paradise, the wooden palace standing proudly on top, the smell and pink cherry blossom strong enough to carry through most of the central city area where most people resided.

Yet the ship was still sad.

This would not do.

That night, or what passed as a night for in the ship, Nezaitben took to the 'sky', letting pieces of her own essence fall on top of the sleeping populace, or those that were not sleeping finding themselves feeling the need too. Enveloping the ship into a peaceful slumber, she searched their dreams. The powers granted to her by the pantheon of gods in her homeworld allowed Nezaitben to weave a series of dreamcatchers giving her the ability to see those whose hearts connected true.

These noble souls would do. Lead by example had always been her philosophy. She would give them a great gift - communication with each other in a single body, allowing them to share everything together. Their two soulcatchers were woven together that night into a single, grand ones, hanging in the garden's trees.

A few minutes later, the empty husks of the bodies that weren't being used showed up at her palace. With a smile, she welcomed them like her own children and began to dress them for their task.

That morning, some of the crewmen would wake up to a strange surprise...and that would just be the beginning of a long, strange misunderstanding and young gods trying too much to please everyone.

[OOC - Just a few rules. Keep in mind the listed rules. You can all start your own threads of waking up in the bodies of others. If you feel like leaving a 2nd post for other people to intact with them, start a reply to your own first post with OPEN header. That way everyone else will know where to post and if you don't feel like having an open interaction post right away, you won't have to!

There will also be another post for all the soulless characters to go around spreading joy and love, so look forward to that too!]

Welcome, dear visitor, to a world consisting entirely of plastic-looking city sets. My, don't they look ready to blast apart at a moment''s notice? It's almost as if an attack is expected in this sector.

But not to worry! The 'attacks' here are just goofy entertainment. Lovably laughable employees in dull green suits may make menacing gestures at times, but they're just a nuisance. The visitors to this section are protected by the Masked Rangers, the people in heavy helmets and spandex suits you might see from time to time. The acrobat-types, the ones in the flimsy suits, perform tricky stunts and wave 'blasters' that shoot a cheap spark effect from time to time. Driver-types wear heavier armor and traverse this section of the park in their specialized motorcycles, zipping down specialized roadways seemingly from nowhere.

Other than that, the environment is fairly industrial. The main attractions are in the 'abandoned warehouse district'. It features greasy food (and surprisingly good smoothies, strangely enough), alarm bells every now and then, and the crowning ride of this sector: an exciting cart ride through the warehouses that culminates in riding atop a giant mecha. The vibrations as the mech carrying the vehicle shoots its lasers are quite unsettling the first time or two, and riding through the smoke cloud of a post-henshin explosion can cause mild fits of coughing. This adventure is not for the faint of heart.

Simpler shows are done in the park-like area, where a few of the more acrobatic employees in helmets and flimsy costumes seems to dance-fight with several of the mooks. It's a cute show, and the only exciting thing is the spread of the explosion. It shoots up in a rainbow of colors when the heroes make a pose. Games can be played here, but always be ready to clear out and make way for the heroes! A little parade of motorcycles and mecha comes through several times a day, and masked characters address the audience with well-prepared safety tips and suggestions for community service.

Gift shops in this area feature knockoff Masked Ranger costumes, transformation toys that light up, toy mecha and motorcycles that combine in many very expensive combinations, and little sparkler lights. Fortunately, actual material for an explosion is not sold.

This nonsense might feel strangely familiar...

Welcome to Kittenland, the most adorable place in Happy Happy Fun World! If you didn't like Kittenland, you probably had no soul at all.

There was the Kitten Go Round, a Merry Go Round where everyone could ride a kitten; the Nyan Cat Coaster, a rollercoaster where the carriages were in the shape of kittens with pop tart bodies, racing along a rainbow track to the constant sound of 'nyanyanyanyan'; the Kitten Petting Corner (with real kittens!); and the Hello Kitty Teacups.

And then there was the merchandise - the Nyan Cat Coaster had a shop of it's own, as did the Hello Kitty Teacups, both with a considerable range in merchandise; there was Kitten Candy, kitten t-shirts, kitten magnets, and more. Oddly enough though, you couldn't buy actual kittens.

[ooc: Feel free to make up any other kitten related rides or merchanise if you want!]]

Philip was restless once again as he strode towards the sensoriums. Closing the door but certainly not locking it, he held up a hand as the DiEnd Driver appeared, his weapon of choice lately. Profoundly saddened he was never going to be able to get a hold of the real thing, he locked in the card.

KAMENRIDE

"Henshin!" he pulled the trigger.

DIEND!

Clad in the blue and black armor of DiEnd, he pulled out several cards from his pouch and started arming them into the weapon. KAMENRIDE: G3, OUJA, FOURZE, DOUBLE!

Firing it into the blank space, the copies of the Riders started fighting it out as Philip watched, seemingly impassive under his helmet.

What was going through his head?

There's a a-do at the Narumi Detective Agency early into Stacy's little gift. Apparently Philip had begun to research a very interesting line of clothing. As such he was bent over in what appeared to be... something not very manly, and picking out some things from a box of clothing lent to him by a adorable desu machine...

Early that day, one might find Philip in the Narumi, sleeping on his things. He held a marker in his hands and from it, there was a single line scrawled over the whole of his whiteboards:

"The Cake is a Lie."

He hadn't been GlaDOSed recently. So the point of it was puzzling.


Later on, someone might find him sitting at the river, throwing sticks into it from the loose gravel. Come bother him?

After Lirath, Hoshi was feeling drained - physically, mentally, and a little bit emotionally, too. Honestly, the only thing that was keeping her standing was her spirit at this point and perhaps some pain that had dulled by now. However, one she got her bike parked, walked inside and trudged up the stairs, she walked over to the bed and crashed on it.

She was used to being thrashed around in a beyblade match, sure, but the fight she took part in wasn't just a simple match that she could just get over quickly. She had a feeling it'd take time and she was perfectly willing to just kick back for a bit and recover.

... Though, the pink elephant in the room was hard to ignore. And so, she turned over a bit, holding back her wince to glance at it.

"...Hey. What's up with the huge chunk of stuff in the room?"

 As the battle raged outside, those remaining aboard Stacy had their hands full preparing for the incoming flood of refugees.

Positioned near the Bleed-Gate orbiting Lirath, Stacy stood ready to receive the refugees. Ship after ship ascended as quickly as they could, some of them making a break for the Bleed-Gate itself while the smaller ships were forced to dock at Stacy, unloading their cargo of refugees before setting off again for the planet's surface again to take on more passengers.

Several small units of GIA soldiers were also sent up to help the Transmigration crew take in the massive amount of refugees, many of whom were tired, wounded, and scared. It wouldn't take long for the ship to begin filling with people.

With the battle raging outside, and the Ohm clambering outside, trying to get in, it would be a tall order to keep all of the refugees safe and calm, but the crew didn't have much choice.

[ooc: Open!]

It wasn't uncommon for someone to suffer from lazy afternoons. Or, well, lazy days. With things having calmed down from both the wedding and the prom, things seemed kinda slow at the moment. In a way, that was a good thing. In a place like this, having quiet time was very rare. On the other hand, it was a bit worrying - who knows what might happen next?

For Sasami, though, she ended up taking it in a bit of a stride, opting to hang around a portion of the Kohaku River near her house once more. Relaxing by the water's edge once more, the feel of the water on her feet felt relaxing to her. Letting out a sigh, she laid back and started to relax.

At that moment, she felt something drop on her face. Something wet. Then another. And another.

"ACK!" was the last thing being heard left out of her mouth as, suddenly, the City was hit with something very rare: rain. This wasn't supposed to happen! ...or was it?

The Ridevendor pulled up in front of Zedd's Palace as the occupant of it got off quickly, a cat leaping off after him. Pulling off his helmet and taking off his gloves, Philip knew he had to hurry since he had looked up the results of this little prom and discovered something a mite confounding.

So, armed with a basket full of a rather heavy food and a bottle, he and Mikku trotted up the stairs and summarily let himself in, only to be teleported to the highest reaches.

"Zedd, are you here?"

It was a quiet day in the Atori as it were, with Philip scribbling on his white boards that now dominated the front area as well.

Philip was thinking about something. With time being so screwy on the ship, he thought he had forgotten about something important...

Riding down a transport tube to the hangar to presumably stop Allenby from what she had been discussing doing on the network, Shoutarou is having a moral dilemma, about whether to stop the girl, or join her.

Time to phone a friend, in a sense.

He'd been staring at the Double Driver for several moments, and now he finally puts it on. "Philip... Have you been watching the network?"

Once Shoutarou was settled in, Hoshi went to the Sensoriums on the HardBoiler with the Lost Driver and Nazca Memory in tow. She felt like there was new energy inside of her by what happened at the Narumi Detective Agency, definitely ready to put forth her energy into making Nazca work to its' fullest potential. Sure, it wasn't like aiming for Xtreme, but she didn't feel like she was being left out of the fun. No, she was going to help protect the smiles of those on Stacy along with Philip and Shoutarou.

She walked inside of an unused Sensorium and waited for Philip to come help her learn about the Nazca Memory as they agreed upon.

------

Now that she had more of an understanding about Nazca, Hoshi went to somewhere in the city, ready to try out her new powers. She stood perfectly calm and composed before attaching the Lost Driver to her waist, it wrapping around her. Then, she held up the Nazca Memory and clicked it.

"NAZCA!"

"HENSHIN!" she called and placed the memory in the slot of the Driver. She spread her arms out and felt flames and light surround her, transforming her into Nazca. Her hand took the Nazca Blade out of its' sheath, twirling it around, and she ran it over her gloved hand.

She wanted someone to train against just to see what techniques she could gain from this form so that she can utilize all of the skills that Philip previously showed her.

( OOC: Okay, so the first part is for Philip and Hoshi while the second one is free for anyone! Feel free to bother her about the transformation or anything else, as well! )

There was a new arrival on the ship, one that had been released quite unexpectedly. It had watched the humans mingle, and it was now prowling around the inhabited areas of the city. It was smart, and knew it needed to find his master.

"Meow," said Mick, holding what appeared to be a Gaia Memory in his mouth, wearing a belt.

(ooc: Philip's probably somewhere here, so is Shotarou and anyone else. Bendy time will allow for multiple "return to Sonozaki if Found" scenarios.)

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 tall man in green armor 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.]

As promised, Hoshi went over to the Atori Teahouse with the needed items in hand: the vinegar to get Philip out of the can he was stuck in and the two items she picked up for him as well. They were as wrapped as they were going to be, what with not having any wrapping paper on board. Not that it deterred her, though! It was the thought that counted.

She dismounted the HardBoiler when she reached the Atori Teahouse and then went inside, seeing her partner in the main room.

"Let me get a glass," she said, going into the kitchen to get a glass for Philip, the two items she brought over laid on one of the tables. When she returned, she poured him a glass of vinegar and handed it to him for him to take.

( OOC: As well as a couple days after this log. )

After the failed attempt with Xtreme, at least in her eyes, Hoshi wondered what could be wrong with her unable to sustain the henshin for as long as she could with the other forms. Although, on one of the days where she busied herself around Stacy, she came upon the answer. Of course it had to be that! Her endurance and stamina waned because she went without a good beyblade match in months.

Sure, she trained during the mornings as well as a little bit at night, but without some good old fashioned beyblading, which was high intensity and fast paced all on its' own, she wouldn't be in her tip top shape that she normally would be.

And so, that's what led her to the Sensoriums once more. It wouldn't have the same effect as it would back home, but she would try her best to replicate it.

The walls dissipated for an arena, just like the one she found here on Stacy, but instead of just one opponent, she was up against three beybladers. Then, with a swift movement, she grabbed both her beyblade out of its' pouch and her launcher, setting the two of them up. She stood with her beyblade with the tip pointed up to the ceiling, her legs spread out. After a three second countdown, all of the beybladers released their respective beyblades into the dish, ready to give it their all.

"You can do it, Seraphiel! Show them what for!" she called out, ready to get her game backto where it was normally.

Care to watch or ask what she's doing?

There was something that was good about having her as a partner - she was dedicated when she was given a goal to work towards, and that current goal was unlocking Xtreme. She had woken up early that morning, worked out a bit to get the blood flowing and then left the Masaki home with leaving a note as to where she was going.

She rode to the Atori Teahouse and then got off the motorcycle, walking up to the entrance. She knocked on the door and waited with her arms at her sides, rocking back and forth on her feet while humming a small tune to herself.

The sensoriums looked a little different today, as upon entry one would find rows and rows of books. In the middle of it stood several bookshelves flying around, being shuffled about as Philip made his own studies. Even with the clock broken, he wanted to run a search on his own world.

“Keyword: Kamen Rider. Time Travel. Ryuki. Knight.”

As Phillip shuffled bookshelves, there was another person in the shelves today, his companion for the time being, Negi Springfield. The young mage was looking through shelves, plucking memories off the shelf and reading into them. It was like having your own personal library, even if the shelves rearranged themselves periodically when Philip was making a look up.

(ooc: couldn’t decide on who to post with so have a joint Negi-Philip post. Just make a note of who you wanna talk to, or just come in to gawk at the sight of the Gaia Library in full manifest. Bendytimed to after the clock is taken out.)

It always felt weird not to be greeted by the sun peeking through the windows of the Masaki home every morning, but for Sasami, she was used to it by this point. Despite being on an alien ship and stuck in the middle of a multiversal war, she decided that she'd keep going through her usual routines, especially after finding the Masaki Home.

At the moment, Sasami was busy making breakfast for those who lived in the home - her sisters Aqua, Starfire, Hoshi, Reimi and their new guest Phillip. Darting from one end of the kitchen, the little girl made sure her "family" was well-fed. If anyone did catch Sasami, they'd notice her not only sporting her usual hair ties but wearing Reimi's ribbon on her right pigtail right above the other tie.

Care to visit this quaint little home?

(OoC: Just a simple mingle post here as well for both the occupants of the home and anyone who wants to drop in! I'll make sure not to hog XD)
