first; action

[lookslikemomo]

[Someone steps through the Chaos Gate in Mac Anu, looking thoroughly confused. He looks around and tilts his head to the side, and he finally notices that his bags aren't with him. He has a smaller inventory now, and he's checking out the light armor (robes, actually) that he was wearing. He has a weird-looking cellphone now, too, not like the one

[ while she does have business to attend to--aigis can't help but catch sight of someone who ( despite the getup ) looks undoubtedly like another outsider. the look on his face makes him read like a book.

overhearing his musings to himself -- ( Beijing, 55N 25E, population over 22 million, capital of the People's Republic of China, existent in the timeline of 2009, Modern-Day Earth ) -- she makes her way over and calls out to him, her feminine voice still not losing its distinct, robotic tone: ]

Your speculations are correct. This is not Beijing.

[ she makes an awkward pause: ] I apologize for eavesdropping.

[lookslikemomo]

[He jumps a bit, startled at the tone of voice someone just spoke to him had. She was dressed pretty much the same as everyone else, but was she a robot? Or maybe it was just the way she spoke, he knew there were a lot of eccentrics in the world, so...]

Aah, that's okay, I don't mind eavesdropping that much, but, uh-- [He leans a little close, somewhat embarrassed to have to ask out loud. Everyone else seemed to fit right in except him.] --Where exactly is here?

[accoutres]

[ embarrassment meant nothing to her. to aigis, everything is black-and-white--and if someone like this had a question, there was no reason to give the answer ( or adjust the volume of its delivery ) ]

The city in which you are currently located is called "Mac Anu." The "planet" is simply referred to as "The World." My knowledge of the area falters beyond this extent.

[ she looks about her companion distractedly as she continues--eyeing his mannerisms and behavior. ] I have approached you for you appear to be an outsider. I am one, as well. For this reason, it may be best for us to assist each other.

[lookslikemomo]

Mac Anu... The World...

[He repeated the words, but they didn't make sense. Not to him, at least.] That kind of sounds like something from a manga, or a game, you know?

But... I like that. If you're as lost as I am, I think it's a good idea for us to work together, too! [He gives her a bright smile. She seemed nice enough. She helped him out, and all. Kind of weird, but then you'd kind of expect something like that if you find yourself someplace entirely different all of a sudden. Besides, it wasn't as if he wasn't weird himself.]

[He extends his arm out, a friendly gesture.] I'm Takeshi Gouda. Nice too meetcha!

[Spin has been looking for a new place to dance when he hears the tell-tale notes of confusion and follows them, previous task temporarily forgotten.]

[The notes lead him to a man wearing a outfit similar to his own. Another Macabre Dancer?! After about a month and a half of being the only one, he gets to meet someone with the same class. Dancing's a lot more fun with more people.]

[Spin shakes off his surprise and goes up to meet the new arrival.]

Hello. You just got here, right?

[lookslikemomo]

[He was looking around Mac Anu, lost (no sense of direction, really) and confused and still not very used to the whole... whatever he's in.]

Oh. Hello. [He offers this new person a smile-- he was wearing clothes like his, so maybe they... nope, nothing. He should be okay, though?] By here, if you mean Mac Anu, yeah! I just got here. And I think I'm lost, too...

[headphonerookie]

[Spin nods and smiles, trying to keep things calm. He can hear how confused the other man's melody is.]

Yeah, don't worry. It's confusing when you first get here. I was too.

I'm Spin.

[lookslikemomo]

Hey, Spin. I'm Takeshi. Takeshi Gouda. [He returns the smile. So far, he'd met pretty okay people. Even that one guy that kept saying the same thing after a couple of questions. Weird, but he could get used to it. Not that he should-- he was supposed to be in Beijing for a show! But he was probably going to have to miss that...]

So, you've been here a while?

wow this is late I'M SORRY

[smilesforfree]

[ Silabus may or may not spend a few hours a day in the Chaos Gate room, hoping to be of help to any new faces. And what should happen, but an unfamiliar face enters! He approaches with a smile and is overly polite and kind, so as not to alarm them. Goodness knows they're weirded out enough, if they realize they're in a new world. ]

Ah, hello! Are you new here, by any chance?
