Because of course the best time to intro a new character is right before break

[Hey guys look who just dropped into one of the better parts of Satellite! He looks pretty confused. It probably doesn't help that he's got this little red-eyed Duel Spirit chittering into his ear.] Oh, man, I knew I should have asked for directions . . .





[ooc: I couldn't help myself. Even though, you know, I'm only about ten episodes into the season. For the first time. Hopefully I can do it anyway?]

Comments

You can do it!

[Well have your fuck buddy Johan absolutely gobsmacked at you. Since the last time he was able to contact you, you were being held a prisoner, oh my...]

Johan!

^^;;

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

Huh? [He turns around and spots . . . some guy in really freaky armour.] Jyuudai! Heh . . . were we supposed to dress up for the assembly? We weren't, were we? Oh, man, I don't even know where the dorm is from here . . .

[corrupted-king.livejournal.com]

Johan... you're alive? Is everything alright?

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

[Have a surprised blink, Haou.] . . . I -

. . . . I'm kind of lost and I think I'm probably late, but if we both go together we should be okay, right . . . ?

[corrupted-king.livejournal.com]

Thank goodness. [Relief washed over him before turning back to serious times]

Where's Yubel?

...I-I had to. 8D;;;;

[juukitty.livejournal.com]

Johan! Johan! [Have a Juukitty attempting to climb up your pants leg, Johan.]

Ohgod I don't even - I have no IDEA how hard he'd spazz given his usual level of spazziness

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

Huh? [And at first he mistakes the climb up the pants leg for a wayward duel spirit, but since Ruby doesn't *talk,* exactly, that's not really possibl-] GAAH! [And that would be him looking down to see who's attaching themself to him now.] What the - ?!



[ooc: I do not seem to have an appropriate icon ^^;;]

[juukitty.livejournal.com]

Pick me up, please!

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

I - [Well. Ruby doesn't seem to mind the furry little thing climbing his leg. And it is kinda cute . . . okay, picking-up it is.] Boy, when people told me this place was crazy nobody said it did stuff like this.

[juukitty.livejournal.com]

[He snuggles up, adjusting his jacket and fisting his hands in Johan's shirt.] Are you not my Johan then...?

Oh, you know what, have them both. 8U

[controlkings.livejournal.com]

[Have a Juudai wearing an odd headset (which sort of resembles a pair of big, retro headphones, except that the part that would normally go over the head is fitted with dark red glass and across his eyes) and staaaaaaaaring at Ruby Carbuncle. Sort of evilly. Like he would quite like to make off with that Duel Spirit of yours.]

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

[Totally not noticing you. Busy trying to make sense of how this relates to the map of the Academia he got in his orientation packet. Sorry, Jyuudai.] Oh, man, none of this looks right . . . What do you think, Ruby? You're the one who got us to the roof.

[kizunaprotector.livejournal.com]

[And there's a Yuusei sitting on one of the staircases leading up to one of the derelict buildings, trying to distract himself from his impending migraines with investigating (i.e.: taking apart) some random discarded computer. This technology was old to him-museum old, in fact, and finding out how this "Internet" worked would be quite educational...

...however, while that endeavor would have worked before, the migraines have progressed to the stage where simply focusing attention on an object would not help at all. Talking with others seemed to help for a short time, but then again, talking to his Stardust was headache-inducing on its own.

Speaking of said Stardust-it's hovering around him right now, watching him work. You might mistake this alien for a Duel Spirit, Johan.]

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

[And when he finally looks up from his little underclassmen's map you know, the ones that never actually look like the campus in the slightest but the freshmen are always too embarrassed to say so? that kind to see if any of this makes any more sense than it did - since holding it upside down didn't help, either - he does indeed spot the giant dragon. It's pretty~] Hey! [He's waving at you now and looking slightly flustered.] Sorry, but - do you know how to get to the assembly hall from here? I'm kind of lost . . . I'm really bad at finding my way around new places.

[kizunaprotector.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Stardust, despite his sparkles (and slightly robotic appearance, considering that he looks like armor being worn by some sort of spectral creature), is a very manly dragon, and if he knew you thought that he was pretty, he'd definitely mouth off.]

[The young adult looks up, blinking, before replying in a neutral tone.]

All these buildings in the Satellite sector look the same. I wouldn't be able to tell you which one resembles anything like an assembly hall, I'm afraid.

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Mr. Ruffled Lavender Shirt would totally mouth off right back. Or, okay, probably not. But he might think of it.] Satellite sector . . . ? Nobody told me there were different names on-campus . . . Are you new too?

[kizunaprotector.livejournal.com]

[And while Yuusei would normally have picked up on your confusion and started explaining, he's rather distracted with his migraine and his efforts to combat it by occupying himself with this old-looking computer (well, okay, old to him, to you it'd probably be high-tech, Johan).]

No, I've been on this island for some time.

[cantfghtdestiny.livejournal.com]

[Hey, Johan it's Bitchface Edo. Who is... well, still looking pissy. But marginally less so since this is at the very least someone he recognizes. Even if he doesn't associate with him, really.]

Oh. So you're here too, then.

ohgod watch me fail because I don't know just how famous Edo even is

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

Eh? Ah - yeah. Heh - You're Edo Phoenix, right? From the pros? [He offers his hand to be shaken.] I'm Johan Andersen.

<3~ see note for teal deering facts because I love to meta about pro dueling ^^

[cantfghtdestiny.livejournal.com]

Yea. I know. [He's ignoring the offered hand in favour of looking skyward and sighing.] Let me guess. You don't actually know me personally where you're from, right?


[ooc: Even I'm not positive if it's been specifically said. Presumably there was a great deal of hype behind him. I've always assumed he was one of, if not the youngest pro out there plus he'd been adopted by the current world champion. The Ryo vs. Edo duel from season 2 (which was one of the few pro matches that actually occured onscreen) filled an arena and was televised. He also has fangirls. XD Uh. Short version: Famous enough. Definitely easily recognizable to anyone involved with dueling from that era. I'll stop now.]

<3 This is good stuff to know since Nina is an impatient failboat.

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

[Have a puzzled look, Edo. Followed by another of those kind of sheepish grins.] No. I'm not sure you've ever even dueled in my part of Europe. It would have been all over TV.

[transfermenow.livejournal.com]

Hey! Hey!

[It's a girl in a Duel Academia suit trying to get your attention.]

Hello!

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

[OH THIS COULD BE HELPFUL. You're being hailed back.] HEY! [And hurrying up to meet you. Not quite glomping, but god does he almost look like he wants to.] Do you know how to get to the assembly hall from here? This map doesn't make any sense . . .

[transfermenow.livejournal.com]

Ah...ha...about that, um.

we're not at the Academia anymore. We've been transported to another dimension. Again.

[She looks a little sheepish, a little annoyed...oh, wait, you look a little familiar.]

Say, didn't you transfer into the school this year?

[thejewelergem.livejournal.com]

. . . . . . . . another . . . . . dimension . . . . . ? [Well that makes approximately zero sense.]

Ah - yeah. Johan Andersen. [He holds out a hand.] Sorry, I don't know anybody yet.
