Fourth wall mingle post

[wrnpcs]

[For the regular denizens of Balamb Garden, it's an ordinary day...until more off-worlders start showing up, for only a few hours at a time. Unsure what to make of these more temporary visitors, the Garden faculty is holding off on registering them as cadets or offering them jobs.

[Maybe someone you know might turn up?]

Mod note, to reiterate:

4th wall characters can only be seen at certain hours of the day. They may appear for two hours a day, or four... or seen only in the early morning... the time doesn't matter to us, but they're not permanently here. They may return to Garden again through the rest of the month, but they're not around 24/7.

Like apped characters, 4th wall characters can't be ridiculously-sized. Transformers, Gundams, and similar concepts/characters will become human-sized (and in the case of mechas, not allowed altogether.)

Players (like you and me) are not allowed to visit Garden. We're breaking the 4th wall, not destroying it altogether!

Apart from this post, 4th wall characters are free to reply to open posts in witchesreign or open logs in concoursec. Apped players have the option of closing their posts to in-game characters only.

All BBS posts are locked to in-game characters only. 4th wall characters do not have access to any sort of logged in posts unless they hijack someone else's log-in---and in those cases, we need to know this beforehand.

For those unfamiliar with the setting, here is more info on Balamb Garden's facilities and layout. Additionally, some of the NPCs around and some player characters may be wearing Balamb Garden's cadet or SeeD uniform.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask on the OOC post or through the mod channels (wrmods or witchesreign).

[filming]

[This guy's wandering around with a camera, filming anything that looks remotely cool, and even the completely mundane.]

Sharpay, I know you're skeptical, but believe me, this isn't anywhere in New York or Indiana.

[Don't worry; he's not talking to you (nor Sharpay, who is nowhere in sight): He's just laying down some audio.]

[werepanther]

[Guy with a camera... Tom's first instinct is to flinch. He's certainly not one for the spotlight.

But the mention of his girlfriend's name definitely pings him.]

... Sharpay? Like Sharpay Evans?

[rebellingheart]

[Oh hey there someone talking about one of her bestest friends? This is clearly something to be interested in!]

Sharpay?

[Rinoa leans over, dark eyes bright with curiosity.]

So you're from Earth then, right? Someone she knows back home?

[All the questions and none of the answers, way to miss the point Rinoa.]

[clickandshoot]

[Of all the crazy adventures she's had so far, getting sent to another world certainly beats all of them. Elena'd be filming all of this if she weren't too busy looking at the Directory at the moment.

As she glances through, she can't help pressing her lips.]

Just what are they teaching kids these days? Even the military schools in the US weren't this intense...

[y_so_standard]

[You say as a 12 year old marches past with what looks like a machine gun/rifle ]

[in_store_microwave_ovens]

[There's a guy with a dolly with a big box on it. He looks tired, if not vaguely bored, and lifts his cap to swipe away the sweat on his forehead before jamming it back atop greasy-looking black curls.]

Hey, who's in charge here? I gotta fridge ta deliver! There's anudda' one o' these babies back on da truck!

[wrnpcs]

Excuse me, coming through... I am!

[Cid blinks: He hadn't heard of too many off-worlders being hired off campus.]

You're early; I didn't expect these until next week.

[Yeah, Balamb Garden actually has ordered new fridges recently...]

[noblewarden]

[There is a very unhappy woman in heavy armor looking around the Garden with a small frown on her face.]

[She's heard the Fade was odd, but never in her life has she imagined it'd look like this! Shield on her arm and a sword in her hand, she walks up to the nearest person to demand answers.]

You there! Demon! What matter of trickery is this?!

[ageneralmayhem]

[ Someone has been accused of being a demon on more then one occasion. At this woman's words he just arches an eyebrow and slightly smiles. ]

I'm afraid you are asking the wrong person for your answers.

[batmullet]

[There's a man wearing a batsuit (and sporting a very trendy mullet) wandering around, pretty much going "the fuck is this? the fuck is that?" at pretty much everything. It's not every day you get to view a world that isn't a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Thanks for that, grandpa.]

Fascinating!

[sleepinglionheart]

[Oh hey, Garden, have a familiar face.

A familiar face that is completely puzzled, but not showing it. His poker face, it is flawless.

But he definitely has a gunblade, and that scar is pretty distinctive. He appears to be older, though, with longer hair, and a hell of a lot more belts. yes, it's possible.]

[rebellingheart]

[Wait. She's got this. She fell for that face once, but this is a trap she won't get caught in twice.]

I know you, you're not!Suall, right?

[Rinoa'd run into a Leon once, and that's pretty much all she'd gotten out of the conversation.]

[y_so_standard]

[Suddenly, blonde kid in front of you.]

You look lost.

[feedmyglitch]

So you're back.

[Ardos is staying quite out of reach of that Gunblade for Reasons. He doesn't really want to get hurt.]

[stillshinigami]

Where the hell am I?

[alwaysanarcher]

[Garden again?

Really? Cissie sighs, immediately waving an accusatory finger in the air:] I thought we were done with the traveling through multiple dimensions thing! Next time, give me some warning, will you?

[piechemist]

_{[Hey Cissie, guess who's sneaking up behind you?]}

Cissie! You're back! _{[BIG HUG.]} You just disappeared... I looked everywhere for you, but I didn't find you.

[likeanamazon]

[Have a girl who is looking around very confusedly. She looks around shaking her head as she brushes off her clothes. She takes a step forward, hesitant to tap the floor with her foot. But alas, the step is taken.]

Great. So it's not an illusion... That means somehow I managed to step my foot in the mystical muck. Again.

[The redhead sighs.]

Okay... here we go. [She sits in the middle of the quad and crosses her legs.]

Via temporis, iam clamo ad te, via spatii te jubeo aperire. Aperi!

[Nothing...]

Damn.

[cigardog]

[Hello Garden. You know what this place really needs? An eyepatch-wearing, chain cigar smoking dog from the police force. No really. Fine, you're welcome to disagree and point this out to him. He'll be used to it. In the meanwhile don't mind him trying to figure out where the hell he is or why there are so many damn humans running around.]

Hey you. Official New Tek police business. Who's responsible for all this?

[espio]

[OH GOD. Oh god. Someone Espio knows. Have a chameleon suddenly trotting alongside - you're the first person who looks like he might be from home that Espio's seen in ages.]

Does this look like New Tek? You're way out of your jurisdiction.

[monkingaround]

[A kid is looking around him in awe and confusion. He wasn't expecting to suddenly be dropped off back at the Garden, but Aang isn't going to complain. In fact, he's going to take advantage of this.]

I wonder if Damian's still here! [With a grin on his face, he races off to find him, heading toward the dormitories first.]

[bratbeyond]

[Damian'd been sitting in the Quad, reading one of his comic books, when he looks up and sees...]

No fragging way. Aang?

[eyeofthetigress]

[Here, have an angry looking blonde woman armed to the teeth.]

Jesus fuck. How the hell did I end up here?

Where even is here?

[werepanther]

[It's been a while, almost three years for Tom, but he recognizes Artemis well enough.

Instinctively, he reaches for his metal knuckles but somehow he barely manages to keep his cool as he walks over (in civilian form, no less). If she's here... was the rest of the Society around?]

That'd be because of Time Compression. Let's just hope it wants to send you back soon.

[voluntad]

[El Paso Texas, born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of school
When a couple of guys
Who were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood

And then Milagro Reyes kicked their puny little butts because she's a green lantern and no one messes with the abuela next door and her garden

She's pretty pleased with herself and chllin' against a pillar in her green lantern uniform, like she belongs here.]

Okay, right, gonna right the evil deeds here and be back by the time mama's done with dinner. That's the routine. [BUT WHERE ARE THE EVIL DEEDS???]

[bratbeyond]

[A Green Lantern? That isn't the Dalai Lama?

Jeez, Garden seems to be fond of bringing all the superheroes this month---not that Damian's complaining. Not yet, anyhow. He's dressed in costume too, though he seems to regard Milagro with an indifferent look as he glances over at her.]

What evil deeds? We're at slagging military school.

[first_sting]

[Hello Garden, or at least the Quad area. Have an upset bee kid, because he was totally going to get someone else to by him ice cream only now he's here.

And he is totes gonna be asking for his mom and dadEspio and Vector in case they're here too.]

Hey, um. Help? [SNIFFLE SNIFFLE, looks like he's gonna cry.]

[bunnypassingby]

[Mikuru blinks at the bee-ness of the bee kid for a bit, but the sniffling seems more important, especially to someone who's met Espio. And, well, Mikuru likes kids.]

What do you need?

[writesonarms]

[Yeah, so there's a pissed off cheerleader with blue glitter by her eye and a strange resemblance to your drama instructor, stalking around the halls. What do, Garden?]

[werepanther]

[Sharpay didn't mention any cousins...

First her future boyfriend, now family? Tom's really confused.] Hey! You looking for something?
