SOUL PERCEPTION [Open to New guests + NPCs + Volunteers]

[screw_disorder]

“Hello, everyone~”

The voice only sounds slightly light-hearted; it’s flat and almost toneless, and belongs to a man sitting on a computer chair that’s been clearly mutilated to match the man’s face - zigzag stitches lacing through the fabric and down his cheek. The same stitches were embroidered into his labcoat, which hung down as he leaned over the chair’s back, examining the newcomers as they wandered in with flashing glasses and an almost sick curious expression.

“My name is Stein; I am one of the teachers at Shibusen.” He ponders “teacher” for a moment; that would imply classes were happening. “You’ve heard it all from the others; you’re now in Death City, brought by BREW to help us in our fight, your souls converted into either a meister or a weapon. What this means for you: you can either become a weapon or wield a weapon.” He shrugs. “It’s fairly simple.”

He waves a hand at the collected group behind him. “Our job is to tell you which one you are. The people collected here have the ability Soul Perception: this means we can see your soul. You’ll simply have to raise your hand and ask.”

His glasses flash and he rests his chin on his arms, folded over the top of the chair; cocking his head, one of the hands falls down and jerks a thumb towards a machine nearby. “Of course, you could always use the x-ray machine, if for some reason the idea makes you squeamish. Rest assured it can’t and won’t stop any of us from looking at your soul.” He smiles wide, like he’s trying to be friendly. It really just looks terrifying. “In fact, it’s very likely we’ll look anyways.”

The hand swings up again, lightly touching the head of the screw through his skull. Slowly, he starts to turn it, his half-lidded eyes looking over the assembled group in front of him. “Well. Come on, then.” Another odd flash of light over his glasses; only one eye seems to be visible in the glare. Strange, huh? “Aren’t you curious?”

At the end of the tour, all Anise was thinking about was quickly finding a place to get out of here. Like with a lot of people, this was the last thing she wanted. She just wanted to go back home and see Tear. She wanted to go and see her friends too! This wasn't fair at all! Not to mention the person who was talking was a little creepy right now. He kind of reminds her of Jade...

With a mumble, she raised her hand. "Um, can anyone tell me if I'm a meister or a weapon?"

is action okay?

[moetier]

[Madoka gave Anise a friendly smile and waved.] If you don't mind, I can help you!

Yeah, totally fine!

[gogotokunaga]

[Huh, she looks friendly enough]

Of course not, I don't mind at all! Thank you!

Awesome /o/

[moetier]

Umm, you don't mind the x-ray, do you? I don't have the right ability for doing it without one.

[gogotokunaga]

If I did, I wouldn't have said anything at all!

Although, aren't x-rays suppose to be bad for you?

[moetier]

Maybe in really large doses... but this wouldn't last long at all, if you're worried about it.

[gogotokunaga]

But even in small doses, something could happen! Ahhh, I don't want to grow an extra head!

[moetier]

You don't have to worry about that-- this was how my soul was looked at when I first got here!

[gogotokunaga]

But how do I know that something will happen? Oh dear...

[And Anise ponders] I'm too young to be ugly!

[moetier]

I promise it will be fine. [This is the most reassuring smile that she can possibly give.] I haven't heard of it doing anything to anyone, so I don't think there's anything to worry about.

[gogotokunaga]

If you say so...but if anything does, I will not be very happy about this at all!

[In which she looks at the x-ray] So...how does it work anyway?

[moetier]

Um... it's really simple. All you have to do is stand in front of the x-ray, and I'll be able to see what your soul looks like!

[gogotokunaga]

[And then, Anise stood in front of the x-ray and waited for the results. But she was still really curious about what kind of fontech it was...]

Okay then, I'm ready!

[moetier]

Okay! [There's a pause as she turns it on and studies what's going on in front of her.] Um... It looks like you're a Meister.

[gogotokunaga]

Huh, I suppose that kind of fits! A cute little girl like me isn't suited to be a weapon!
