PRE-FIGHT MINGLING, meeting on the corner of some random street

[dorkytracksuit]

[Posts under here should be characters meeting up and talking to each other/Hunting/Etc.]

Davin

[dorkytracksuit]

[Davin is there waiting for everyone to show up in what appears to be a cowboy outfit. He's got the boots and the hat at least. Also he looks distinctly yellow, almost like he has jaundice or something.]

[iaijutsu]

[Whatever the time they agreed on was, Hajime's there right on the dot within a ten-second margin of error. It's just the kind of guy he is. It's the kind of guy he looks like, too; he's neat and tidy and his fashion sense screams "prep."]

Are we starting with introductions, or are we assuming the less we know about each other the safer?

[dorkytracksuit]

[Davin shrugs]

It's not like you can get much from just a first name.

[But he's still going to wait to see how the other person responds before he gives his.]

[iaijutsu]

Fair enough.

[Code names would make this all seem a little too comic book.]

Hajime.

[dorkytracksuit]

...Davin.

[And he's really rotten at making conversation so that's all he says. Sorry Hajime.]

[iaijutsu]

[Hajime is hardly a social butterfly himself. He's completely content to wait around in slightly awkward silence for the rest of the party to start.]

[really8adegg]

[Arianna will be joining Davin in wide-brimmed hat territory, although hers is less cowboy and more Carmen Sandiego – her hair isn't really long enough to pull off the whole look but the long coat she's wearing would make up for it if both it and the hat were red. They are, however, both dark blue. Alas. A missed opportunity.]

[She has her coat pulled tightly about her, but she manages to look more brisk than furtive until she stops at the street corner. She looks at the unfortunately yellow-looking fellow over the top of her glasses and raises an eyebrow sharply, questioning.]

[dorkytracksuit]

[He looks away embarrassed, making a rude comment in his head about the way she is dressed and simultaneously praying she doesn't ask him anything about it. He has social problems.]

I apologize for the icon

[comparative_insanity]

At first Fay is uncommonly silent, figuring that the chance of the others saying something clever and worth hearing is greater than his own. During a lull in the conversation, however, he turns and smiles at the other man. "I like the hat," he points out cheerfully and seemingly without a trace of sarcasm or intent to tease.

Since I'm not sure if I should jump in the existing thread or not...

[shiromadoushi]

[[Bakura, in contrast, is intentionally late, wanting to see who he's approaching instead of the other way around. While not normally paranoid about meeting people, things have gone on this week that have made him very edgy.

He's stuffed his white hair under the hood of his jacket, hands in the pockets of his jeans as he approaches the group. That, his slight scowl and the scar under his right eye give off what he hopes is the appearance of someone not to mess with.]]

[comparative_insanity]

Fay drops in just a bit late, and judging from the make-up and glittery hair he's going somewhere else after this meeting. He has the collar of his powder blue coat turned up, rubbing at his arms as if he's feeling cold, but he's smiling as brightly as ever, waving offhandedly.

"Hey y'all. Sorry if I'm a bit late."

THE FIGHT

[dorkytracksuit]

[Posts under here should be about fighting the human mutant. No order, just tag whenever is appropriate, we should prob let Mal tag first with the mutant attacking them though.]

Don't mind me using this account, please.

[theearth]

[The Vermini were always attracted to the reincarnated humans. They could feel them, moving around the city like beacons, impossible to miss, drawn to the closest like a moth to flame, only shying away when witnesses might be around.

But the gathering was irresistible! The their first indication that something unusual was occurring did not involve humans at all. Instead a sudden and constant chirping from several directions, growing closer. And soon a thick carpet of rolling black spheres emerging from nooks and crannies all around.]

[horrorterribubble]

[Cori goes suddenly tense, clenching her bat the moment she hears the sound. Her instincts are screaming that she is about to be in danger - and at the sight of that black carpet...well.]

Holy fuckin shit!

[She backs up, even her boldness somewhat daunted by the sight.]

Fuck you guys I think we found our bugs-

[iaijutsu]

[What the shit.

For a moment, all Hajime can think is that he was an absolute idiot to come along for this. A few of these things, okay, but that many? He doesn't know the first thing about fighting, he's got no clue what to do with this.]

[comparative_insanity]

Sweet merciful Jesus Christ our savior...

[Fay stares at the writhing mat of creatures, remembering the time when the entire porch at home had been covered in migrating monarch butterflies. That had been scary but beautiful - this was just scary. His mind is throwing a lot of weird creature facts at him, but none seem to match these... these things.]

I- I don't think we should let 'em touch us.

[As if that wasn't obvious.]

[shendude]

[Like the rest of the group, Shen Fujin is basically freaking out but he has something of an advantage over the rest of them. He immediately floats up and out of their reach, the temporary shock of the sight erasing his awareness he wanted to keep that a secret.

The Vermini on the other hand stay perfectly still for a few seconds and then in unison chirp and roll away from the group, fading away as quickly as they appeared.

The fact that two seconds after they were gone a man's screams could be heard in a nearby alleyway was probably not comforting.]

[shiromadoushi]

[[Bakura could only stare, eyes wide at the wave of black.

At the scream, however, his head shot up. Someone else was...?!

Without a thought he bolted, running towards the sound, heartbeat pounding in his eardrums. If a person encountered that many of them...]]
