audio ♔ after the pan plot start

[akito]

For any displaced Heropians... People who live in Heropa...? Who don't have a place to stay while this um... thing is happening, the Xavier school's door are open!

There will be a sign-in and out procedure for security measures and organizational purposes, and everyone will be assigned their own temporary dorm. There are forty-one rooms available. Please specify if you're alone, with a partner, or a larger group and you'll be accommodated accordingly.

Any purposeful destruction of property will result in a ban from the premises.

The school is close to the city's limits, so if anyone wants to use the building as an HQ to organize themselves for a rescue mission they're more than welcome to. They just need to contact me - Akito! - or Agito first.

Also, if anyone needs someone to watch their animals while they're away we can make space for them as well.


Do we have a preliminary count of how many imPorts and natives are affected by this yet? It will be easiest to get a count on which imPorts are MIA first, so please respond here with who you know that is missing!


{ added later: a rudimentary list of imPorts he knows have gone missing }



((ooc: since all of the other school officials are MIA or otherwise occupied, Akito is temporarily in charge. Xavier's layout is here.))

I was wondering where to go. I mean, I already go to the school, but I didn't even know what was going on. I just barely got out in time. [And she kinda had to use her rewind powers in order to do so without getting caught.]

[audio]

[akito]

I was lucky I stayed up late last night, otherwise I would have been stuck in the city.

Do you need a dorm to stay in for now?

[timecapture]

Yeah, I do. I commute to school. I just hope the others are okay.

[akito]

I'll put you in room 201 then. It's a single, right by the stairs. Your name is Max Caulfield?

[ not playing polite right now and just using network I.Ds to confirm everything. ]

[timecapture]

Yeah. What's yours?

[She sounds more sad and tired than like she's trying to make conversation, but...]

I think I've seen you around the school.

[akito]

208. I was thinking of asking for 210 though, since it would have more space for our equipment... [ he and Agito's computer set-up has gotten pretty hardcore and it'd be awesome to have a dedicated soundproof room for video recording. ]

Un, probably! I spend most of my time around the school and its grounds.

[caerulea]

If you need a break from the school, I'm living in De Chima so my place is open.

[akito]

You're all okay in De Chima??
If more people help out here and this goes on for a long time I might visit...
For now though I have to make sure everything runs smoothly!

When everything is back to normal I'll definitely go visit the aquarium
I miss all the animals!

[ because someone had to miss way too many work days due to injury. and isn't registered. and therefore unemployed again. :'( but at least no more crazy commute! ]

[caerulea]

When you get the chance, come by when I'm working. I'll take you to see them all. They've been missing you too.

Don't work yourself too hard at the school. I can always come by if it gets too much.

[akito]

I definitely will!!
Could I bring my friend with me? I was going to before...
Then the attack happened and I got hurt too badly...
｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д`ﾟ)ﾟ｡
It was worth it though!!

I'll let you know if we need any help!
Right now the best thing everyone can do is let displaced natives know that Xavier's is open to them too.
If you could spread the word that would be really helpful!!

[caerulea]

Worth it? Bringing someone is okay, though. No one here would say anything about it.

I'll be sure to tell anyone else I find.

[resipiscent]

I'm going to leave my animals there.

audio

[akito]

What animals do you have, and are they okay with other animals?

video

[resipiscent]

They're fine, yeah. And it's a cat, a dog and a pig.

/THROWS FORMATS OUT THE WINDOW (but audio 5ever)

[akito]

Is it a big pig or a small one? And does it just poop everywhere, or can I set up a poop area for it?

[resipiscent]

He's... maybe a couple hundred pounds? But yeah, you can set up somewhere for him to go. He's pretty smart.

[ Well, this world certainly saw it's inhabitants hitting the ground running, so to speak. Charles felt as if he'd barely had a chance to get delivered to his new home and grab some tea before the gruesome events was broadcast across the network.

Things seemed to hurry along at an ever quickening pace and Charles truly wasn't sure where to even start. When another broadcast came across the device, this one with his name mentioned, cocktail syndrome kicked in and Charles focused on Akito's message.

Alright, that seemed good. The school was in a position to offer refuge, which was excellent and it sounded as if they were taking precautions, which was also good to hear. He still felt the twinge of a desire to go help, before he had to remind himself that he had as great a likelihood of being a hindrance, as a help.

Besides, he didn't travel as quickly as he used too.

So instead, after some consideration, he opened up an audio only connection to Akito. ]

Hello. I'm afraid that I've only just arrived and was relocated up to Nonah, which sounds like it may be for the best at the moment but is there anything that I could do to help?

audio!

[akito]

[ after a quick check of this person's network I.D., Akito is in a much better position to give Charles an answer, since it's entirely likely this is the Xavier of Xavier's. ]

If you're safe the best thing to do would be to stay that way, I think. But if you can help spread the word to everyone that the school is open for taking in refugees that would be good too!

[excessivehubris]

[ Someone fails at the technical savvy to realize his device came with an ID.

Whoops!

What's worse is he still has no clue it's outed him, so to speak. ]

So far as I can tell, Nonah is unaffected by whatever is happening. [ As for spreading the word, well ... seemed that was being done well enough already and besides, he wasn't exactly sure what had just happened. ]

Can you tell me what in the bloody hell just occurred? Is this some sort of attack on the city?

[akito]

Hopefully it stays that way! We'll do our best on this end to keep it from spreading.

Another imPort put a curse on the city, or... Something like that, at least. He ripped out someone's heart to do it, so I think it's safe to say it's an attack.

You just make sure to stay safe and get settled, and we'll take care of your school for you! How's that?

Switch to video on his end

[excessivehubris]

[ Whoa ... whoops, wait!

He had no idea how that had happened but Charles quickly checked on his device and made the switch (on his end at least) from audio to video. ]

Ah, right, hello again? I'm not sure how you got my name? [ That was something he needed to look into. ]

Is a Mr. Robert Callaghan available? I was told that he is the current headmaster at the Institute?

[ He'd get back to the subject of an imPort killing someone and putting a city under a curse, once he sorted this other bit out. ]

audio;

[shuckit]

Teresa Agnes and Newt are missing. Or, at least, out of contact.

[ thomas is actually somewhere within the school, given he was hanging around when the curse started, and it was a quick run to get indoors when the fog started spreading. however, he's not planning on staying. if his friends are in there, he's going after them. ]

If anyone comes looking for me, could you let them know I went in?

I'll be back once I find them. [ he thinks. ]

audio;

[akito]

Thanks for letting me know.

Do you need anything? The infirmary can spare some first aid supplies.

audio;

[shuckit]

That'd be good. Maybe some water bottles, if we have any around.

And, uh. Weapons.

[ because.... yeah. doubtful that this will be a safe adventure. ]

audio;

[akito]

We can spare water bottles!

What weapons are you best with? [ he can rig one up for you easy... ]
