[ He's seated on the edge of a rooftop. His night vision is fine, more than fine actually. He can see anything and anyone clearly without the help of lights. The few days Shiba's been in Marina are blurred together. Just one interesting thing after another. He had chuckled at the newcomers in the morning. To think that he had been in their position just a few days ago. ]

[ But the real highlight of the day was Sakura. Shiba flicks on his lighter, the tiny flash of light startling against the darkness. Poor thing. He'd have to see her tomorrow and maybe catch her in the morning when no one else was around. There'd be no murderous guardian with knives and while that was no fun, it made things a little easier for him.]

[ For now he'll sit here with his cigarette and watch for somebody to come by. ]

EDIT: warning. now with plushie violence. |D

[He's sitting cross-legged on the grass, poking at the chain ball attached to his ankle. Is it really necessary? It's a tad bit heavy...]

[Lifting a hand, he peers around, trying to make sense of the place he's in. A prison, apparently, but it looks really nice. Exploring would be a good idea, but after he figures out if his companions are here.]

Excuse me? [His voice is polite but cheerful.] Has anyone happened to see a cute girl, a very polite boy, and a rather angry-looking ninja with a fluffy white object on his shoulder, by chance?

( and then she saw him on the floor )

[There's a clear note of panic in Sakura's voice.] Somebody - Someone help!


((ooc: Itachi is sick and collapsed and bleeding everywhere and Sakura is rightfully so freaking out. Anything goes so long as Itachi is not getting healed! If you'd like to have your character come on over you're welcome to, just remember no healing or attempts at curing or hauling to the hospital for Itachi will protest!))

[Hello again, inmates! Are we having fun yet? GIR has been quite aware that some of you aren't exactly happy with what's happening at the moment, so that's why he's got more plans up his sleeve for the rest of the day! The giant pizza, for one thing, he let fall from the sky, he's allowed the sun to gradually come up, and now he is BEATBOXING for your entertainment!

This carries on for...five minutes give or take--are your brains Jell-O yet?--before GIR starts giggling that same creepy giggle.]

Are you haaaappyyy~~?

I gave a pizza to the Tallest! I hope it didn't squish him...

--I'M GONNA MAKE CRANKY MAN A PRETTY BIRDIE!!



((ooc: GIR is referring to Gino as his "Tallest," a.k.a. a leader of the Irkens and as for "cranky man," that is Kanda who will be blessed with the gift of 'flying' today. ♥))

All because that stupid math teacher decided that we still needed to go to school today...

[Guess who is mumbling and grumbling in the quickening dawn. She's stripped down to nothing but her slip and is soaked, knee deep in the water in an secluded corner of the beach. Silly her, she should have remembered to bring an umbrella with her today, because obviously fruit punch showers had been in the forecast. Of all the things why fruit punch? Clothes ruined, her dress, cast to the side on the beach next to her communicator and other belongings, is stained red. She's tried to remove the stains, but her amateur job in the ocean hasn't done much. Maybe once home more can be done. She isn't far now but the sticky feeling in her hair and all over her body is uncomfortable and too much for her to wait.

How has something as ridiculous as that perverted robot managed to take over the dome? And if so, why hasn't it done something productive like sending people home?

She's just...going to sigh, and continue trying to squeeze that sweet scent out of her hair and rinse her body. She's aware the ocean isn't the best thing for this, but it's better than nothing. Especially when Headmaster, in all likelihood, is at home and armed with a camera just waiting for her to set foot inside.]

[Sakura's just stepped out of the house for one second to peer outside the door.]

...I really can't see anything. Does everyone have flashlights? I should get some too for Itachi-san.

[she takes another step outside to peer outside. How long would it take for her to walk to the store? She could get a folder and some flashlights - and her train of thought is cut off with a squeak....What - what was that? She can see something. Oh God, what if it's a - ghosts weren't real - there weren't any in Marina right?! At least if there were, they'd be friendly ghosts. Like - really nice people that are see-through and not at all like the floating, creepy people that haunted youandpossessedyouandscaredyouandkill-]

.....Hoe?

[and then she feels the hand on her shoulder. insert hysterical screaming]

HOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Whoa! Sakura-

GO AWAYYYY!

ooc: This is what happens when Shiba creeps up on lolis everyone. Shiba is blue |D AND HE WANTS A WALKING BUDDY

Oh wow. Is it supposed to be this dark?

[ Shiba's just creeping around in the shelter, trying to find his way around. ]

Hi everybody... not to put a damper on anyone's afternoon but... I just had a question.

[ Pause. Deep breath. ]

Um... where's the blood gone?


((ooc: I'll be going to bed soon, but threadjacking is a-ok with me.))

[Since she hasn't spent much time in the Education Center until now, Rei's decided to explore the surroundings to make sure she doesn't get lost while looking for her classes. She's got her schedule in hand, so she's focussing on the room numbers on the paper, but also wandering a little to get a feel for the place. She's got time, after all, before she peeks in on Ribbons's dance class.

Not that she's taking it. Of course not. She's just going to take a look, maybe watch if he doesn't mind. She just wants to make sure it goes well.

Any teachers or students hanging around who'd like to approach her?]

[HAVE A CHIPPER HIKARU! People aren't always as bad as he believes them to be, and this made him cheerful.]

I hope you all like your school uniforms. You couldn't have had better designers~!

[He feels really cool for this, yeah!]

Anyway, if you liked the paint balloon toss, maybe you'll also play freeze tag or blitzball with us!

I don't know what we're playing yet.

Boring people not allowed.

Also, I'm looking to try a new pasta dish, maybe with some heat to it. Different than pasta arrabiata. Wouldn't that be fun, Kaoru?

[Toothless is bored. He's been here long enough that he's pretty much explored everything. He knows by now not to mess with the very big fish (aka the dolphins), for they are not for eating, and to leave all the small animals, also not for eating, alone. So now he's trying to see if anyone else wants to play that one game he played a few days ago.]

I want to play the baseball game! Where can I find someone throwing the ball?

[He still thinks that baseball is, more or less, fetch. Throw the ball, bring it back, repeat. It has something to do with teams and going home but he doesn't understand that part. This place isn't home. It's under the water! How can they run home?]

[This was oddly nostalgic. It had been a while since Fuuma dealt with something as mundane as doing the laundry. Between destroying the kekkai of Tokyo, fighting the Dragons of Heaven, and finding a way to make people realize what their deepest wish was, who had time for doing laundry? He certainly didn't. Plus his clothing had a tendency to get covered in blood, which was hard to get out in the wash. Getting new clothing was much easier than trying to get those stains out. He hadn't really done a normal load of laundry himself since before awakening as "Kamui".]

[The load in the basket was wet, so it had clearly been washed already. Fuuma dropped the basket near the lines for hanging up the wet sheets. Laundry was a task he didn't mind, by any means, he just had better things to be doing most of the time. He pulled one of the sheets out of the basket, shaking the last few stray drops of water out of it, before clipping it on the line. They had a washing machine at home, sure, but never a dryer. Why waste money to pay for what could be done for free with a few hours out in the sun? Though, usually he had been running errands, and... she had done the laundry. That girl. With one of the sheet secured, he moved onto the next.]

[For being a prison, and this was pretty easy punishment. Really, it was just like a normal day, for a normal person. Apart from the robots pushing them around from place to place. Not that he wasn't looking forward to getting the chain off his leg so he could go around at he pleased, but it seemed like a waste of effort to him. Why punish them if the punishment was laundry? Wouldn't they have to do laundry here normally? Fuuma shook his head to himself.]

[She's busy putting the finishing touches to her lunchbox, clad in an apron and everything! And if someone doesn't stop her she'll be making one for Sasuke too.]

I've just finished making lunch for school tomorrow and I have lots of extra ingredients - so if anyone would like a lunchbox I'll be happy to make one for you too! [unless you rather have the bots do it!] Oh, do you want anything particular in yours Sasuke-san?

[smilesmile! oh yeah] I can go to school right Itachi-san? I'll be really careful and I'll come home straight away, promise!

[defense force filter]

Gino-san? I'd like to ask you something if you're not busy.

[Rayflo has things to do today! Even if he's doing it all at a leisurely pace. The bitemarks have been covered up, but he's still tired. First he's going to Orihime's to pick up his gifts, then to the convenience store for some nice things for Maria--including a cute collar--and then he'll be going to the clothing store to pick out a cute dress for Alessa for her first day of classes! But he also has something else he needs to do which is why he has his communicator set on the network as he walks with Maria sitting on his shoulder.]

Hmm...seeing as we have a nice new mail service, does that mean we can send something to just about anyone?

Anyone mind admitting any letters or presents they intend to send? You don't have to say to who.~

{OOC: If you want to see Rayflo at any of these specific places or in between places, just say so in the header of the comment or be specific in your tag. Thanks!}

[Dressed and ready for her day, Yuuki walks silently along one of the many well-kept roads within the dome, her long hair trailing lightly behind her as it stirs in the smooth, light currents of the air. There's a parasol with her, but it's folded up and at her side, for the time being. Alone for once it's a rare sight. She rarely leaves the familiar property surrounding the manor unless within the company of someone else. Brown gaze wide and intent, she stares a little anxiously at her surroundings.

With her eyes casting furtively this way and that she forces herself to take a deep breath, before attempting to smooth away the troubled expression on her face. Nothing might really look out of place from a distance, or to a stranger, either. But she's obviously uncomfortable. She walks like this for a while, before a loud noise echoes off to her right. Visibly flinching, Yuuki pausing in the street. Turning toward the direction of the noise, a bot scurries past her and she quickly realizes that it is nothing more than one of the computer created robots going about their daily business. Inhaling a little shakily, her small fingers reflexively curl into her skirt, before she squeezes her eyes shut, head tilting down.]

This is just foolish.

[The video comes on, showing Orihime sitting on her bed, cross-legged, with her still-damp hair piled on her head in a neat bun. She is surrounded by various stuffed animals, and her yellow Haro, and beams at the camera.]

Ta-daaa! Orihime's Amazing Plushie Emporium! I just wanted everyone to know that if you asked me for a stuffed animal, I got them all done. [holding up two cute dogs] For Rayflo-san... [and a stuffed cat and a catnip mouse] For Cielo-san... and I made a matching one for Kururugi-kun, but I already gave it to him at his birthday party.

[and a Chappy doll, and she giggles] And one for Kuchiki-san, too.

[brightly] The others I just made for decoration. [there's a little pig, and a little tiger, and a little bear] I'm working on C.C.-san's sundress and I have to fix Heiwajima-san's shirt... But then I can make anyone else something if they want.

[Jun is sitting at a table in the cafeteria early in the morning, shoving some cereal around in his bowl. He looks down, eyeing the ball and chain on his leg.]

Stupid thing...

[He sighs, and eats some cereal, shoulders hunched and expression annoyed. Someone bother him before he works himself up too much?]

I think a little girl's coming to kill me.

[from this. matter of fact. not at all like someone who should be freaking out right about now.]

[there's just this loud smacking noise as a communicator gets thrown at Lero's head - pushing the button as it hits the poor umbrella in the face.]

Roooooad-tama!

Be quiet Lero. [lots of clanging - and is that the sound of something burning? Dear God it is]

[Road huffs.]

This is stupid. I don't - [pause as she slams something down violently] It's green. Is it supposed to be-?

[sizzling- and Road yelps in pain.]

Road-tama should be more careful, lero! What would the Earl say if he saw Road-tama like this, lero-

[and it gets cut off as Road picks up something else to fling at the poor umbrella]

I said be quiet!

[ KO ]

ooc: Road is cooking! because who else is going to do it? and trying very hard not to show that she is obviously affected by the absence of the Earl. sob. Action's always open for Tyki.

[Just kind of hanging out in the shelter with her feet propped up on the couch. Faith's amusing herself with knife play! not a kink. Because when you don't have anything to do you should totally do dangerous stuff. She flips the knife over and over and over and over and over - and yeah, she'll probably keep on doing this for a while.]
