INTRO LOG - JUNE 2014
Who: Everyone
Where: The Welcome Center
When: 18th June, late afternoon
Summary: The new arrivals, freshly pulled from their worlds or others, awaken in a strange place...
Warnings: Inbox death may occur. System overload at own risk. NPC responses may be slow.
It's a shuddering breath, a sensation of being pulled to elsewhere and finding oneself pressed against something on the soft and some place cozy. However, before one can fully stir, there is and odd, warm stirring sensation that lifts you up from wherever you've been dropped, when you begin to drift off once more.
Yet the feeling passes quickly, and when you awaken, you begin to realize your surroundings. It's a small room with what some might recognize as a Far Eastern theme when it comes to decor, from the walls to the sofa (or bed) you find yourself on. Illumination is provided by carefully crafted lamps, and even a candle flickering on a nearby desk. The doors are made from paper and wood, with a thin frame; through them it's easy to hear other people stirring, talking, or coming to.
You are not alone...
Close at hand there's a note that reads:
WELCOME CENTER
Newcomers: Please come downstairs to the lobby for refreshments and your welcome packets!
Odd... This wasn't written in your own language, and yet you find it easily understandable. Soon enough, if you don't enter on your own, there's a gentle knocking on the door as someone comes from downstairs to usher you along.
"Welcome to Saeng Seong! I know you must be confused as to where you are and what's going on, but we promise to explain this to you once you've had a chance to stretch your legs!"
Whether you go downstairs immediately or linger a little longer, eventually you must come down and get out of the small space, and sooner rather than later would probably be better. You'll find yourself in a well-lit lobby, filled with comfortable-looking couches and chairs. Along one wall are refreshment tables, loaded with all sorts of cool and relieving food and drink, including some you probably aren't familiar with. It's just as well they're in good supply, as the windows outside show a city well heated from a summer sun.
On the wall opposite are a pair of desks, each with a sign, and one person at her station-
Rhea, General Assistance
Andi, Technological Assistance
The plaques have a shiny new look to them, as do the desks. The one with 'Andi' listed appears to be empty, though. Gathered around both desks and several tables are boxes as well, and...Empty jars? The woman minding her desk doesn't appear to give them a second thought.
However, before you can go over and give at least one of them a piece of your mind and ask questions, the same person who ushered you downstairs hands you a manilla envelope that contains your welcome packet, urging you to read this before asking the two figures questions that the packet likely answers.
Inside it, you will find: a ring with a key and apartment number on it, some kind of cash card, a map and informational guide to the city, and a letter folded neatly on the top -
Outside, and through the translucent glass you can see a banner hanging from the tiled roof of the building across the street. The cheerful colors on it match well against a bright blue sky:

Welcome to Saeng Seong!
You are among a new group of arrivals to our city, from many far-apart worlds.
We have gathered you here because our city is in a crisis, and we are at our last resorts. The energy of the city is in a slow downward spiral, and is dangerously close to expiring altogether.
That's where you come in - you and everyone else we've brought to the city. Unlike those of us here, you have the potential to generate the energy the city needs, but you'll need to work together to do it.
Why? Because the energy can only be generated when two people touch each other. Any touch will do, but it must be between two of you who are new to the city. If you don't keep in contact with someone, eventually your energy will begin to drain as well, making you dangerously ill.
A few other things:
The closed-off sections of the city are closed off for a reason; approaching them will cause your energy to drain very rapidly. We're working to open the rest of the city to you as soon as we can, but for now, please remain within the first five districts of the city.
You have been given a key to a one-bedroom apartment in a complex set aside for you and the other new arrivals, near the riverside in the 1st district. You're free to change your living quarters whenever you like, and we encourage you to move in with someone in one of the larger apartments. When you want to change, just come back to this building to exchange your key.
We've also included a cash card with a living stipend; if you're unfamiliar with this system, or the network established for new arrivals, you can talk to Devin in the lobby for help. It's what he's here for. If you need medical assistance, contact Mai, one of our nurses.
Again, welcome, and thank you for all your help.

Outside, and through the translucent glass you can see a banner hanging from the tiled roof of the building across the street. The cheerful colors on it match well against a bright blue sky:
(ENJOY YOUR STAY!)
no subject
"W-well, stop being so scary!"
no subject
Because holding a Decepticon at arms' length and lecturing him is a totally mature, totally smart thing to do on your first day in a strange place.
no subject
no subject
Because that's reassuring. Except it isn't. At all.
"I wanna know what you're doin' here and how many more of you are on the way."
no subject
This is the worst. Literally the worst.
"I just woke up here! And-- and no one! I'm the only K-Class here! Hell, I'm probably the only one alive. Put me down, please!"
no subject
Primus, he can't even think straight long enough to make sense. He probably shouldn't shake him, either, but that isn't exactly a conscious motion. It just sort of happens.
"You're tellin' me you and your 'Con buddies ain't gonna invade this place?" He snorts. "How do I know you won't?"
Hah. Look, he can be a smartass too. Not really, but there you go.
no subject
Now he's going to start kicking pointlessly with his feet because he's desperate to try to get away from Ironhide.
"I don't know?! I'm not a commanding officer! I'm a nobody! I didn't do anything to you!"
no subject
Thunk thunk thunk go those feet against the windshield. He scowls furiously, but the punch is still yet to come. Mostly because he's utterly bewildered by all this.
"You're still shriekin'."
no subject
no subject
He let go. Granted, he hadn't managed to haul Fulcrum more than a foot or so off the ground. But still. A drop was a drop.
no subject
Upon being let go, the tiny bit of freefall triggers it. Fulcrum feels his t-cog click and he groans to himself, "Aw hell."
Plating quickly transforms and... well.
Well, you have a giant bomb rolling a little bit at your feet, Ironhide.
no subject
Really, Ironhide, he said what he was, why are you so surprised.
no subject
Not that he's going to explode, but Ironhide doesn't need to know that.
no subject
He would say he was too old for this. But after Trion and his tinkering and all that mess, he doesn't even know if he can say that anymore.
Grudgingly, he steps back. A few more steps.
no subject
Yeah, Fulcrum is running.
no subject
He just sort of drags his hands down his face. This is.
This is so ridiculous.
