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).

[Damn. If only his girlfriend actually wore more skirts like those...] Can't help you there. People've been disappearing in and out all this month... If you're lucky, you'll go home in a few hours anyhow.

I don't have a few hours! I'm the squad captain and we're already down a flyer!

[Later on, she'll feel bad about snapping at a complete stranger. But for now she's too anxious. They've already had to deal with Marti's mom and now she's somewhere weird?!]

[werepanther]

[Luckily for Savannah, Tom's used to dealing with rage.]

I meant a few hours for this place. When they drop you back, you'll return exactly when you left.

[writesonarms]

[She breathes a little easier at that.] I hope you're ["you'd better be"] right.

[werepanther]

I usually am. [sly smile] I've been here long enough to know.

... So where're you from?

[writesonarms]

["Long enough" gets a raised eyebrow, but she'll answer the question.] Memphis, Tennessee.

[werepanther]

[Headtilt.] So we might be from the same world. I'm from Brooklyn myself.

[... Is she for real? Of all the places she could be from, Memphis? Tom's starting to wonder.]

this tag is brought to you by Googling "brooklyn, tennessee"

[writesonarms]

By Cookeville, right?

[Though with those flat Yankee vowels okay I just like making fun of opening monologues, Savannah has her doubts.]

AHAHAHAHA i didn't even know that existed... :')

[werepanther]

[Just. This face.]

I meant, in New York. It's one of the five boroughs?

apparently someone has an album called that too 8|a

[writesonarms]

Oh, right. [She half-rolls her eyes, because of course she would think of the one she's actually been to first?? Throw her a bone.]

Whatever makes them happy I guess

[werepanther]

[it amuses him, really.]

It's okay. I'll have to remember that one in the future…

[writesonarms]

I didn't know about it until I was, like, ten anyway.

[werepanther]

Go figure.

... So uh, what's your name? I'm Tom.

[writesonarms]

Savannah Munroe. [She offers her hand to shake.] Circumstances aside, it's nice to meet you...and I'm sorry I kind of yelled at you.
