OPENING LOG.

Characters: Everyone!
Date: August 11th
Rating/Warnings: Nothing as of yet. Mark anything that qualifies a warning in your subject line!
Summary: Arrivals.
You want happiness. A company called RECOVERjoy has offered it to you, so you've signed up with them. Gaining happiness can't hurt, right?

Suddenly you're in a room, an apartment, with three other beds and unfamiliar faces. This is your assigned room, and it's quite crowded. You don't get much of a chance to think as your phone beeps--it's not your phone, maybe you've never had a phone, but there's one in your hand so you check it. It's a smart phone, nothing special about it, but now you've received a text from RECOVERjoy.

Welcome to Joywick! We're so happy to have you!

You've arrived in your assigned room, we hope you like it! Don't worry, you can move out once you've collected enough joypoints. Speaking of, if you'd like to check your balance, there's a special application that tracks it for you right on your phone! Handy, right?

... Did you check? If you did, you'll notice you have no joypoints. But don't despair! We're giving you a special mission. Make three (3) friends and get 200 joypoints! Gee, that's easy! Of course, we can't put a level on something like friendship, so just get to know people. Don't miss out on these easy points! We'll give you more information about joypoints once you're done.

Wishing you happiness,
RECOVERjoy : )


You're in this for 1 million joypoints, aren't you? Might as well get started.

(AFTER THE MISSION HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED OR ONCE 24 HOURS HAVE PASSED)

You receive another text from RECOVERjoy.

Great job on the mission! Or not so great job for those who didn't do it. : (

Well, you probably want more joypoints either way. Here's how! Look for another person. I bet they look fairly happy, right? Why are they happier than you? Because they've got the joypoints you need! The only way to get those joypoints is to steal theirs. How? Take their happiness away. It's easy! Maybe a rumor here, an injury there... but if you want the big points, be creative!
You want to be happy, don't you?

Wishing you happiness,
RECOVERjoy : )


... Not quite what you expected when you signed up. You can't leave, though, you still owe RECOVERjoy 500 joypoints and, well, you came here for a reason.

Why not?! It's like the saying, "A push in the right direction!"

[...Isn't he trying to talk her into doing something she doesn't want to do right now? He's really bad at this.]

[Marx was walking towards that area, grumbling to himself about a prince humiliating him and not finding another friend to complete the mission. His head was down slightly, his eyes not focusing on what's in front of him, but rather what's below him. So it should come as no surprise that Marx had bumped into Yagyuu, causing himself to fall flat on his bum. Ouch!]

Hey hey hey, watch where you're going!

Here's guessing they had bigger things on their mind than our rooming assignments, that's all.

[ ... okay, well. This is an... improvement, right? ]

There's nothing perverse about a lot of the weird crap that people get off to. Doesn't stop them.

[ He flinches, unable to hide his immediate reaction to those words --

How the hell could she know that stuff?

... could something have scrambled up when she was in her Noise form? Like... she absorbed stuff that she doesn't consciously remember...? ]
partnered: (34)

[personal profile] partnered 2012-08-15 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[ And crap, he doesn't want to lie to her, but... ]

... I, uh. [ Dammit. ] ... yeah, I guess that would be kind of weird.

[Shiki's mind has managed to wander off again, the more she walks through the park.

so it's no surprise that she really hadn't noticed all that purple sitting on top of the orange.

though the minute she hears her name being mentioned, she freezes.


gee golly, that voice is familiar . . . . . . . ]

[personal profile] fashionenvy 2012-08-15 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[though the minute her eyes land on that familiar figure, she gives a startled gasp]

N-Neku?!

[man when was the last time she saw you--]

Is that... is that really you Neku?! Gosh... I didn't know you joined this game too! [actually she had no idea where you were after she was relinquished as entry fee SO... UH..]

this isn't late whatsoever.......

[personal profile] fashionenvy 2012-08-15 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[her head tilts slightly, but she smiles regardless, giving a giggle]

Oh no, I agree. A little warning would have been nice. [SHE'S TAKING THAT FINE ASS LADY COMMENT AS A COMPLIMENT BTW EVEN IF THIS ISN'T HER BODY] Though, I guess it's alright. Especially if the guys being dropped are as cute as you! [a wink]

Anyways, where are my manners? I'm Shiki-- Shiki Misaki!

[personal profile] fashionenvy 2012-08-15 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shiki was still in the middle of wandering around when she noticed the grocery store. Wanting to see if there was anything she could buy (for future purposes of course), she freezes when she hears Tomoko's comment about using the joypoints to shop and...

welp....]


What!? No way, really? [SHE HASN'T MADE THREE FRIENDS YET THOUGH, FFFF]

Wah!

[ Her hair moves up a bit in surprise at that reaction. Thinking shouldn't make you "Rrrgh!", Neku!

She was about || this close to asking if he's okay but he added that last part so-- ]
cosmicella: (❝TALENT SAMPLER.)

[personal profile] cosmicella 2012-08-15 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh!

[ She nods in response to that. ]

You're right, it's really bright around here, isn't it?
cosmicella: (❝PONPONPON?)

[personal profile] cosmicella 2012-08-15 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ but

that still means you don't which way is which either doesn't it. ]
cosmicella: (❝THE YONDER RIGHT THERE.)

[personal profile] cosmicella 2012-08-15 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ doesn't that mean they're both kinda lost now?

but he said no. um... ]
cosmicella: (❝MINT SKY.)

[personal profile] cosmicella 2012-08-15 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, I know! Do you want to be "not-exactly-sure-about-directions" together with me then?

[ She says this in the positive way she can ever. It's okay to be a comrade in Lost Child Syndrome, Neku. ]

We can figure out the directions together.
cosmicella: (❝JUST A GAME.)

I can take pictures of them, but that's not gonna make 'em swoon over your pictures!

[It's pretty safe to say if Meredith were here, Elijah would be tossing one hell of a fit, and it's only by the will of his own resistance does he actually not. throw. a fit...]

It doesn't, and I'm sure whoever decided it would be interesting to warp vast instances such as time must find it very funny. [Elijah takes a long drag of his smoke and rubs a temple.] But...

I suppose this doesn't really change anything. [At least not anything he's planned.] I feel like some wayward character in a science fiction novel...
carsharkkonishi: (there is no stupid questions)

[personal profile] carsharkkonishi 2012-08-16 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
[She's to perceptive for that, Neku. Now she looks at him with worry.]

Is something wrong, Nelu? You looked really surprised when I said that I thought Beat was my brother and Shiki looked different.
carsharkkonishi: (Actions speak louder than words)

[personal profile] carsharkkonishi 2012-08-16 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
I do. [Puffing her chest out slightly. Standing up for herself yeeeaaah.]
carsharkkonishi: (a smile can go a long way)

[personal profile] carsharkkonishi 2012-08-16 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
No....it's not...your fault. [She feigns a smile.]

I will be.

[ shouichi grimaces already wondering how quickly he could make a break for the door. ]

I'll ask you to please respect my personal space. [ UGH.]

Um. [ he adjusted the collar of his shirt while he considered what to say. he really didn't like introductions, but if it would get them off his back, he would. ]

Twenty four also. Type A.
Hobbies... I uh, play the guitar.


And build robots.

You could say that, ahah... [ he sheepishly extends his hand as well and they shake. ] Shouichi.

I uh, suppose you're right.
Th-that's why we're here.
