Fourth wall mingle post

[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 [community profile] witchesreign or open logs in [community profile] 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 ([personal profile] wrmods or [plurk.com profile] witchesreign).

    [...that is a big lizard. Still tiny. But. Larger than normal ones.]

    Five times the size of an average human.

    [TOTALLY NORMAL.]

    So... huge, like Emperor Metallix huge? Right....

    [He's just gonna sort of... stare. There is something about this guy which is vaguely familiar, but he can't imagine why. He's never seen him before. It's almost like something in one of Toby's sketchbooks. Is he a Pokémon?

    Maybe it's the moustache.

    I won't say I've never heard of people that big, but even just ten foot's tall by this place's standards.

    --like who?

    [He grumbles a bit, but still not complaining about... you know. Being alive and shit.]

    Ten feet? I've got sons that tall. A few of 'em, too.
    espio: (o...kay?)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-11 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
    Emperor Metallix. Nothing I'd expect you to know about, sorry.

    Big family?

    [...realises what he's just said, facepalms, and corrects himself.]

    I meant, a lot of sons?

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-11 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
    About 1600 sons. GURARARARA! Yeah, they're big, some of 'em.
    espio: (o...kay?)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-11 09:04 pm (UTC)(link)
    Whoa. That's a lot.

    [...wait a minute...]

    ...what was your name?

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-12 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
    Edward Newgate, but most people know me as "Whitebeard".
    espio: (emerald)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-12 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
    [...whoa. Whoa. Whoa whoa whoa. Yes, he's staring again, and it's hard to tell if he's in awe, surprised, or scared.

    ...up until the point where he can't help but grin excitedly, anyway.

    Reason? Marco will be thrilled.
    ]

    You're kidding!

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-12 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
    No. That mean something to you?
    espio: (o...kay?)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-12 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
    Only that you're just in time.

    [Not going to elaborate exactly on just what the "time" part is - he'll leave that to the people in question.]

    Barring Time Compression weirdness meaning you're actually not Marco's Pops, which'd suck.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-12 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
    In time for what?

    [Time Compression? Wait, Marco? Color Pops confused.]
    espio: (emerald)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-12 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
    Oh, you'll find out! But you didn't clarify - are you Marco's Pops or not?

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-13 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
    Yeah, I am... do you know him?
    espio: (amused)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-13 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
    Know him? Can't get rid of him!

    If you ask him, he'll call me his brother. Name's Espio.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-13 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
    He sure does love adding to the family. Glad to meet ya, Espio.
    espio: (huh?)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-13 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
    [A nod. Good to meet you, too!]

    I'll have to go find him for you.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-13 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
    [lol so is Grell.]

    Yeah.I'd like that.
    espio: (Default)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-13 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
    [And then Marco just finds him on his own anyway. Bah :p ]

    Not that I have any idea where he is.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-13 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
    ... ah. I see. [Daddy not happy, but he will be soon.]
    espio: (do i really have to explain this)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-13 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
    Believe me, he'll be around here somewhere! Knowing him, he'll turn up when I'm not looking for him.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-14 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
    GURARARA! He can be like that, eh?
    espio: (do i really have to explain this)

    [personal profile] espio 2012-03-14 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
    Tell me about it.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-16 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
    Hell, I could tell you a lot more.
