Except before he could get started, he noticed a human with pretty strong spiritual pressure coming out of the arena thingy. Nnoitra grinned as he studied the newcomer and wondered if he'd be worth fighting. Santa Teresa was on his shoulders as he approached the guy.
"Pretty strong spiritual pressure ya got there, human."

"Is that so." Severus said, sounding completely uninterested in the creature that stood before him. "I'll be sure to take note of that." Although, from the tone in his voice, he would not be doing that at any time in the near or distant future.

Nnoitra grinned as he ran the nearest one through with his hand. The blob-like creature fell to the ground with a splat, its black blood staining Nnoitra's arm.
"Better use yer shit cuz I sure as fuck ain't savin' yer ass," he said, Santa Teresa a blur as he decapitated two more monsters. He'd see what this guy was all about, and if it was interesting or strong enough, maybe he'd take him on.

That was not good. Not at all. And what was worse, more appeared to be coming, different creatures crawling out toward the stranger and himself. Severus scowled, watching the man as he destroyed a few more.
"I do not need to be saved," he informed him, even as an awkward, almost human creature lumbered toward him. He looked at it, not quite willing to kill the creature just yet. Even though this violent, vulgar man was obviously not a muggle, Severus was not willing to show what he was to him. And the creature didn't seem to be attacking just yet. He was sure he could avoid it if he just walked away from this whole mess.

As Ryuuken passed the abandoned baseball diamond which all newcomers had to pass through, he noticed someone about to come out of it.
Ryuuken stopped several feet away from the man after sensing his high spiritual pressure. It appeared he would be safe enough during the darkness, but Ryuuken would offer him aid nonetheless.
"Do you require assistance?"

Wonderful. He had been deposited in a muggle city, it seemed. Severus scowled at the offer of assistance, more annoyed by the fool's intrusion than anything else. "I doubt that someone like you could be of any help to me." He told Ishida, his voice dripping with ice.

Ryuuken looked the strangely-dressed man over before glancing from the ethereal deer at his feet to a nearby dark alley way. He could already sense the monsters beginning to appear.
Without another word, he walked by the newcomer, his gait slow and steady. When the first of the monsters came hurtling out of the darkness to attack, Ryuuken drew his bow in an instant and filled its face full of arrows in another.

He was still unimpressed when the muggle took out a bow and fired on one of the monsters. Muggles and their weapons. He shook his head. "As I said, I do not need your help." One of the beasts, some kind of flying creature, dove down toward him.
He whipped out his wand, slashing it down in the air and the beast fell apart nearly. A worldless protego! shielded him from the blood. He looked over at the man, then turned his wand at him. Again, he flicked his wrist, almost lazily casting a spell to destroy a creature which was leaping toward him. "In fact, I believe it is quite the opposite."

"Excuse me. If it's not too forward to ask…is that your familiar?"

He stopped, whirling on his heel at the sound of a man drawing in breath to speak, a vicious reply dying on his lips as the he caught sight of the man. He wore a dressing gown over what seemed to be pyjama pants, and if that wasn't absurd enough, he was wearing some silly purple-and-black cape over the entire awkward ensemble.
It was enough to give him pause, long enough for Orpheus to ask him about the deer at his heels. He scowled. Well, the accent was enough to give Severus deep insight into his odd clothing -- he was a Yank, he wasn't expected to conform to a civilized manner of dress. And, as unfortunate as it seemed, this man spoke as if he were familiar with wizarding terms.
"No. It is not. I'm not entirely sure what that is, or why it has chosen to follow me."
Reply
The man looked most unhappy, with that deep scowl and his dark clothing. Perhaps this unwanted companion was weighing heavily on him. A desire to help added fire to his curiosity.
"How long ago did it start following you? Have you lost someone important to you recently? Were you feeling particularly distressed when it appeared? Or any other strong emotion that would have drawn a spirit to you?" Orpheus finally paused in his questions long enough to give Severus a chance to answer while he stepped closer to try to get a better look at the silvery animal.
Reply
"It has been following me since shortly after I found myself in that sport's field, or it attached itself to me at the same time that I arrived." He narrowed his eyes.
"I do not believe it to be any sort of spirit, disturbed or serene. And, even if it was, I think I would seek out professional help." The corners of his mouth twitched, turning up slightly, turning what had been a sneer into a smirk. "I prefer not to take advice from oddly-dressed Americans who accost strangers on the street."

"Damn... baseball court... Why a baseball diamond...?" It made no sense, but it was his only clue to at least try and comprehend what was going on in here; why wasn't he back in the hunt for his daughter's murderer? Any time now!
Fisher stretched his good arm and pressed tightly against his left one, the damaged one. Then he looked up, goggles on his face allowing him to see the green shade of green, the image of a person, a man a... Why the robe again? He was beyond confused, but still... it was someone, right? Fisher hadn't seen people in days and had survived strange nights and things that hunted him, but he was here ( ... )

And now, there was a man staggering toward him, odd goggles on his head and clutching one arm as if he were wounded. Severus scowled at the injured man, glaring his hardest in an attempt to put him off. Did he think he was some muggle Doctor? Or perhaps a healer?
While Severus could heal, he did not heal just any stranger who walked up to him and told him what kind of playing field he had just left. "Indeed it is." Snape said, coolly. "And it is not where you should be," his voice hardened as he scolded the dazed man. "You should retreat to the nearest hospital."
Reply
"You're right about that last one. Problem is, where is the damn hospital?"
Reply
"I do not know." He said. "I have only just arrived myself. There were others, I'm certain they are nearby."
