To... Japan!

[key_bearer]

Hey Satoshi!! I'm just letting you know I've got to go signal to head over to your place now! Let me know when it's okay for me to drop in, I mean, with time zone differences or whatever... And I'll be coming in by Floo, and so... well, yeah, you know how that works. So just be ready to hear something from me if I end up in the wrong place! ^_^;;

Hmm, anytime should be good so long as you give the heads up before you jump in so I can stand by the fireplace so you can see me and know which one to stop at!!!!!

[[YEah sorry for the lateness. I haven't been doing too much with the compy the last few days @.@
As for where to put it, I guess that depends on weather or not you wanna have Sora end up at Chika's place by accident of not.
If so I'd say start a log, otherwise here should be good ^^]]

[key_bearer]

Alright! Just gimme a minute, and I'll be right over.

((well, i guess that would also depend on whether or not our NPC Chika-mun is available for that... well, for simplicity's sake, let's just keep it in here?))

[hyper_mori_jr]

GREAT!! SEE YOU SOON!!!

*goes to take a position by one of the chimneys*

((Well, doens't look like we'll be starting off with a Chika, but I'll see if she want to jump in on anything with us later!!
And here sounds good, it's easy enough to find :D))

*suddenly pops out of one of the chimney's in the Morinozuka household, completely covered in soot and looking like a shadow version himself, holding a suitcase in his hand and wearing a very large, very stuffed backpack. coughs a bit, waving away some of the soot that's been kicked up and reaches up to wipe his brow, making a sudden flesh-colored spot appear there in the midst of the black soot*

Phew! *peels open his eyes, and now looks like a big black shadow with a flesh-colored spot on his head and big bright blue eyes* I think I made it... I made it!

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Is standing by a fireplace in a different room. Hearing a bit of coughing coming from another room and makes his way over, guessing his friend made it*

SORA!!!!!! Welcome to JAPAN!!!!! *Satoshi grinned as he entered the room to see a figure completely covered in black standing before him* Shall I call one of the servants got help get you cleaned off?? I seems you managed to pick the messiest fireplace in the house!

[key_bearer]

*Sora's face brightens (though it's hard to tell) and laughs upon seeing Satoshi, starting to brush the soot off* Hey!! Haha, I'm just glad I made it into the right house! It's weird flooing halfway across the world! Uh, well, you don't have to call anybody... *He looks down at all the soot he's brushing onto the floor and freezes, smiling sheepishly* Then again, maybe you should.

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Though Satoshi generally wears either traditional Japanese or American garb at home depending on his mood, today he decided to wear a Yukata to greet his friend on his first trip into the country.*
Oh don't worry about it, we were expecting a bit of soot!

*Satoshi sticks his head out the door a moment waving and callsing out*
Hey, Yoshio!! He's here!!!!
*Satoshi turns back to Sora*
Hehe, I'll let Yoshio get you cleaned off and show you to your room while I get ALL my comics!!!

*A serious yet friendly man in simple yet formal Japanese clothing. He bowed slightly to Sora while Satoshi grinned and slipped out*

*Yoshio smiled reassuringly. While he was well at ease greeting guests something about him also seemed to suggest he might be one of the family's students.* The floo is a rather messy way to travel isn't it? Shall I clean you off with magic? There is a bathroom just off of your room if you prefer simple water.

[key_bearer]

*Sora is dressed in his usual short black and white jacket a bright red shirt underneath and long denim shorts. Of course, none of this is particularly visible beneath the layer of soot that covered him, but the colors ae starting to shine through as Sora pats himself down.*

*He laughs cheerfully and nods at Satoshi as he hurries off* Okay, sounds good!!

*He's just about to open up his huge oversized backpack in search of his Muggle comic books when the man named Yoshio comes over and speaks to him. Sora smiles warmly in his friendly way at him* I think using magic would be good, that way there won't be anything left on the floor, right?

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Yoshio smiled again and nodded before taking out his wand and casting a simple spell. There as was a slight tingling feeling then the soot slowing floated away from both Sora and everything around him to finally fade out of existence... having likely apperated itself to the trash.*

Whenever you're ready I'll show you to your room.

[key_bearer]

*Sora looked down at himself, pleased that there was no more soot on him, his things, or on the floor. He ran a hand through his hair, mostly just to check that nothing had been caught in his spiky locks, before bending down to grab up his things again. He grinned at Yoshio.*

I'm ready! Is it... really far away or something?

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Yoshio, looked back as he headed for the door* Not too.

*It was a bit house. That became obvious as they walked through it. It was constructed like and American or mansion might be, though everything in it had a distinctly Japanese style or flare to it. From the look of the walls and floor to the furniture. At last they arrived before a door which Yoshio opened*

Feel free to get settled in. The Young Master Satoshi's room is the nest one over *the man gestures one door to the right* He will meet you in the room at the end of the hall *again the man gestured to the right, only farther to the door the hall ended at*

If you need anything just call me by name and I will be with you shortly.

*Yoshio pause a moment after all that to see if there was anything else Sora wanted to ask him or might need*

[[Yeah I'm fully making up Yoshio :P I'm just gonna use him to represent most of the 'servents' they might encounter, and will probably be the only one I give a name :D cause there will be a few servents appearing though the stay for sure

[key_bearer]

*Sora gaped at all the lavish decorations in the house as he followed Yoshio to his room. He'd never been to Japan before and everything he saw that was unlike anything American or British was a wonderful surprise to him. He was smiling eagerly as they reached what was to be his room, and tried his best to focus on what Yoshio was saying. No easy task, because everything around him caught his eye and practically sparkled.*

Um... Okay, I think I got it! *nods, still smiling happily* Thanks, Yoshio-san.

*Sora adjusted his hold on his suitcase and backpack and turned to face the door, ready to enter it and drop off his things.*

((lol, no worries, that's perfectly understandable ^_^))

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Yoshio nodded and walked back down the hall, leavening Sora to explore his room.*

[[Room description:

The room itself is big.... yeah just big. It looks kinda like this:
Meditation roomonly brighter and with furniture

[key_bearer]

*Sora gapes around at the room, amazed by the sheer size of it and somehow unable to believe that he's the only person that's going to be in that room. He goes over to the bed and puts his things down before wandering around the room to explore everything more carefully. He checks out the wall that is really the door to a closet and looks at the clothes hanging there with interest. Briefly, Sora wonders how one puts these clothes on, having had very little exposure to traditional Japanese wear. When finished there he goes to look at the bonsai tree, amused by how small and delicate it seems.

Once all this his done he goes back over to his things and starts to unpack.*

[hyper_mori_jr]

*a loud thump can be heard from down the hall where Satoshi is supposedly going to meet Sora.

*It seems that on top of getting the comics he also decided to bring the tv to the room on his own and hit his leg on a table.
Sora might be able to catch Satoshi hopping around on one foot in a room with magical comics all over the floor and an unplugged tv sitting at an odd angle on the table.*

[[The room would have a soft rug under the table for sitting on, and maybe a few plants in the corners but not much else... the only thing that might give away what the room is used for would be the paper ink and quills in the center (well approximately as the TV displaced them a bit) of the low table...
This room is the one Satoshi and Mori most often study in.

.... am I going into too much detail with the rooms?? :P]]

[key_bearer]

*Sora finishes unpacking his clothes and things, then grabs up some of the Muggle comic books and starts heading for where he's supposed to meet Satoshi. He hears the loud thump and, confused and a little worried, he starts hurrying over to where he heard it from. He bursts through the doors and starts looking around, only to start laughing at the funny sight he's presented with.*

*between laughter* A-Are you okay, Satoshi?

((haha, no, not at all! the room descriptions help me envision everything better. so no worries! :P))
