Town Hall, Sunday Noon

[fjordicswagger]

Tamsin smelled like the sea. No, she didn't want to tell anyone why. It was embarrassing enough.

She hadn't used the radio system to spread the news this time - she had a feeling the newcomers would know to listen for that. Instead, she'd banked on none of them having working phones anymore, and put a message out on the local messageboards.

And the Discord. There was always the Discord.

Now she was waiting none-too-patiently for people to show up.

Arrive!

[fjordicswagger]

Mingle. That sort of thing.

Re: Arrive!

Well. Jono didn't exactly fit into the Town Hall, but he was here, kind of lingering outside the door. The other Jono, his younger self, had mentioned that something was going on here today, and he'd sort of taken it upon himself to at least be in the know.

Hopefully nobody would take a large molten monster just casually sitting outside the town hall too badly. He was being fairly well-behaved. Kind of idly tapping out a tune on his knee while he waited for word from inside.

Well, Miguel was certainly going to blink at the large molten monster. "You're not a local, are you? I like to think I'd have noticed."

//Local by way of a time jump,// Jono replied, tilting his head and looking down at Miguel. //Do me a favour? Lemme know if I miss anything important in there, mate?//

Dinah sat down nearish to him. You couldn't sit *next* to him, just in case of accidents, but. She could sing along. Because this seemed a little familiar.

"Time to save the world. Again."

Peridot was here!

So was Pumpkin, because after learning about slugs and doing a little bit of research about them, there was no way she was leaving her alone anywhere.

She was also sort of suspiciously peering around, to see if any of these faces were new faces. Or repeat faces. Apparently those were a thing now, too. Pumpkin, on the other hand, mostly just seemed thrilled to be around so many people, and was barking and panting happily at all of them.

Mitsutada had arrived because this sounded like exactly the sort of this he was literally made for.

Fully dressed up in his suit and his bits of armor, he was ready for action. He just needed to be pointed at the enemy.

Re: Arrive!

[what_the_shock]

Oh, look, one of the roomies.

Miguel gave him a little wave. "Hey. Thanks for helping out with the slugs on the lawn." And Nathan.

Kathy's phone had beeped with a Fandom Discord message and, lo, she was here. It beat wandering through the woods and killing slugs, hands down.

Re: Arrive!

[godilovedthis]

Kathy had woken up at the nice people's house again and seen 'RADIO STATION' written on her palm in capital letters. Clearly, that was important, so she'd let herself out to go and find it, where she'd hopefully remember what to do when she got there.

Her trek might have been easier had she remembered where the radio station had been, but several hours of wandering around had ended with her having eaten a chocolate croissant, feeding the ducks at the pond, drinking a coffee, and ending up here. Wherever here was.

Re: Arrive!

[spin_kick_snap]

Kathy saw someone peeking around the corner of the building and went over to investigate. The last thing they needed was someone from the other side knowing all their plans the minute they were made. She snuck around the building from the other side, creeping up behind the girl. Something about her back seemed familiar--

"Oh shit," she said when she realized who it was. "You're me."

Ghanima had handwavily been spending the last few days killing slugs and attempting to keep the area around the dorms clear of the creatures.

She was more than ready to move on to something more violent proactive, and had arrived at city hall early, waiting to hear what, exactly, they could do to get rid of this infestation.

Re: Arrive!

[usedtosing]

Dinah wandered over, examining Ghanima's face, and said, "I used to know you. I think. Or someone like you."

Re: Arrive!

[tigerundercover]

Raven was here, looking about 10 years old and blonde. She figured that the other Kathy was probably not the only one who might have a violent reaction to seeing someone blue and scaly.

Her other self was apparently extremely unpleasant.

Re: Arrive!

[2_old_for_this]

"Should you be here?" Peter asked, frowning at her a little. He wasn't going to assume someone shouldn't be just because they looked young, but he also wasn't going to keep from asking.

Re: Arrive!

[what_the_shock]

Miguel was all about the heroing these days, apparently, so hey, why not? He showed up and looked around, trying to figure out who was up for helping and who probably needed help.

Re: Arrive!

[bigdamnprincipal]

Zoe wasn't about to let people go attacking things without at least offering to help. She was well-armed, and looking rather put out at everything she'd been hearing. One peaceful holiday season, that was all she wanted.

Re: Arrive!

[2_old_for_this]

Peter and Peter were here, now that the way to solve this had been found. Shadow-Peter had given human-Peter back his sword, since he had a bit less need of it, and they stood against the back wall, looking determined.

Re: Arrive!

[justice_undone]

Breq was here, armed with a gun, looking expressionless as usual. She had some idea of what was going on from radio reports, and had spent yesterday killing slugs. Now hopefully they would be able to get to the root of the problem of this.

At least people seemed to be sort of prepared for something like this. She should have preferred a proper defensive strategy to have been set up beforehand though.

Re: Arrive!

[okteiviakom]

Octavia had a jagged sword at her back and dark warpaint on her face.

If there was going to be a solution to what was going on, she wanted to be here to hear it.

A Call To Action!

[fjordicswagger]

"Okay," Tamsin said. She held up a very large book. "We have this really stupid rite someone's used before to keep idiots from sounding in the apocalypse by calling up the Old Ones. Would anyone like to go use it before we all die? Thanks."

Re: A Call To Action!

[spin_kick_snap]

Despite this being literally everything she'd sworn she was never going to do, Kathy found herself being one of the people volunteering. She just couldn't look into her other self's empty eyes and stand on the sideline while her other self had volunteered. It wasn't right, leaving the burden on the other her just because she was a fuck up.

With your track record? She wasn't going to look at the other Dante if he was there. Saturday morning cartoon.

And maybe she had a thing or two to prove anyway.

Re: A Call To Action!

[what_the_shock]

"Well, when you put it like that, how can we say no?" Miguel asked wryly.

OOC

What a time to get cramps.
