Minatsuki Takami | Deadman Wonderland

[whip_my_hair]

One of the tower's newest residents looked like she really did not belong there. Ever since she had come out of the sleep paralysis, Minatsuki had looked as if she were near tears. She slouched a little, clasping her hands together nervously as she found her way down to the cafeteria, and she jumped at even the faintest sound.

[2ndgenmute]

When Matthew arrived at the tower, he had forgotten about those that might be unsettled here, unused to the supernatural and such, and the situation itself. So when he saw Minatsuki, he walked over to her.

"Hey! Are you alright, miss?"

Lord El-Melloi II | Fate/ [AU]

[fionnuisce]

[Here is one Waver in a dark green suit and black shirt, hair in a ponytail and sunglasses delicately perched atop his head.]

[Is he in the library reading? In the meadow trying to do some sort of alchemy-based analysis on the flowers? Did he just take down a monster with nothing but martial arts? Anything goes, use your imagination because mine's checked out for the day!]

OKAY WOW I WAS JUST CHECKING THIS BEFORE BED- well hello there

[nonacquiescent]

[This Waver is just staring. Isn't that about what he looked like only a month ago? His memory of the experiment is a little fuzzy, but enough people brought up his appearance to remember these basics. Tall, long hair, harder features. So why is there suddenly someone in the library matching that description? Should he approach him and ask what's up, or - nah, he should probably just keep staring. Very obviously so. WHO ARE YOU]

[Also I need to renew my paid and forgot to pick up a prepaid card so don't mind this icon thing.....]

Alynna Nechayev | Star Trek

[demilitarized]

[Have an Admiral. Per Starfleet directive shes going to be nosing around looking for a method to escape and return home. Because from her perspective this is clearly yet another instance of aliens kidnapping Starfleet officers for god knows what reason. Assume shes nosing around pretty much anywhere, phaser at the ready.]

[littlelifeforms]

[ At some point while she's nosing around and exploring the strange tower, a certain Starfleet Officer will spot her as she does the exploration. As far as this android knows, Nechayev is still only Vice Admiral- Time paradoxes alas. But he approaches her with a surprised expression... As surprised as an emotionless android can look at least. ]

Vice-Admiral Nechayev?

Neal Cassidy / Once Upon a Time

[wegotlucky]

[Have a certain former thief who has been in hiding for years and years and who is not allowed to be happy.]

[doesnotglitter]

[Speaking of not allowed to be happy, here's Gold trying his best to act like Neal being here isn't something that caught him off guard.]

...so you are here as well, then.

The Batter | OFF

[incorruptus]

[For a place that can be so dark and colorful, this man sticks out like a sore thumb- he looks like he stepped out of a black and white illustration, not a single other color on him. Add the baseball attire, the bat, and the deadly serious expression on his face, and one can tell he's not exactly your average sports player.]

[Oh, and look, he's stepping up to anyone he sees, speaking in a very unemotional tone:]

Show me where the specters are so I can purify them.

[ghostytrainer]

[Though John has certainly seen weirder, it's not every day that you see a monochrome man. That being said, he can't help but stare a little. Next to his shoulder floats a small, sentient candle with a purple flame.]

Purify them? [Well that's a new one. John waves a hand almost dismissively.] Just wait till nightfall, dude. More specters than you will know what to do with.

Undertaker | Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler)

[makemelaugh]

[It has always been him who tended his guests with the uttermost care and never thought of death as a bad thing. It was the first time he has been on the other side, felt what it was like to die. And to get revived as well.

And it was certainly an interesting experience.]

I c ur lonely. Have a death goddess.

[thousandcurses]

[It's only natural, really, that someone as steeped in death as she is be drawn to him. It's almost amusing, really.]

Are you well?

Matthew | Golden Sun Dark Dawn

[2ndgenmute]

[Matthew isn't quite sure where to start with exploring the tower. He is however doing his part in taking care of some Husks. Columns of earth seemed to generate around him, crushing them into the ground. His hand still held a large sword, the Sol Blade. It was rare, but when the Husks came, he would slice one in half with little effort, moving away before the electricity claimed him.

Help maybe?]

[seekinganswers]

[Was being able to take a walk without running across a bunch of monsters really so much to ask? Sheba was starting to think so.

What started as a leisurely walk through the Tower with no real purpose was completely, utterly, one hundred percent interrupted when she sees a flash of blond hair, blue fabric, and yellow scarf.]

Isaac, look out!

[It's not Isaac, but she's not actively scanning his mind - her focus is on the Husks, who will very quickly find themselves at the center of a hastily-cast Tempest. They can iron out the details once the threat's been eliminated.]

Avenger | Fate/Hollow Ataraxia

[destructiveprinciple]

[On the seventy-fourth floor, the cavernous darkness of the cavern and the shimmering blue glow rippling through it, there's a small pond of repulsive black mud oozing onto the stone. If you're in your right mind, you wouldn't touch it. To make contact with that kind of unfiltered evil is to invite ones own painful death. However, if you look closer, a trail of black mud leads away from it; it's clear that someone or something came crawling out of the black sludge alive, heaving themselves over the sand awkwardly and staggering away into the gloom.

Follow the muddy tracks a short distance, and half-shrouded in the darkness, here's a boy snoring on the sands, absolutely coated in that mud from his feet up to his chest. To anybody who knows of him, it looks like a half-nude, tattooed Emiya Shirou taking a nap... In the middle of a monster-infested floor. :3 Because he's a lazy butt who can't be assed to go find his dormitory and sleep there.




Sure is giving off a fuckton of HOLY GRAIL PINGS and PURE EVIL.]

Re: Avenger | Fate/Hollow Ataraxia

[grailheart]

Are you resting, Avenger?

[The voice that sounds like tinkling bells shows no panic at the surrounding monsters. Instead, it sounds reassuring--the way a mother would speak to her child.]

[If he were to open his eyes, he would see a beautiful woman dressed in pure white, looking way too serene for the monster-filled floor.]

Viola (Protagonist) | The Witch's House

[funnystory]

Floor Twelve ⚘
[There's a young girl walking around the room, observing the projection with an almost child-like fascination. One, two...how many worlds have been destroyed by now? It's entrancing, like nothing she's ever seen before. She reaches out to try and touch a star, as though she could reach it through the glass, just in time for it swallow itself up. The entire world--no, universe--is left nothing more than a dark mass of rocks that haven't yet been able to realize their fate.

She wonders if this is how her world was destroyed, if her world was destroyed. If so, she's happy to have been the one to be saved.]

Floor Ten ⚘
[...an aquarium. She's never seen a real one like this before, although does this count as real? There's no glass to support it. She takes in this fact neutrally, dismissing it as something akin to magic. She moves her hand through the water, splashes it a little bit, before drawing back as a particularly large, toothy-looking fish that she doesn't recognize passes by. Perhaps that should unsettle her more than it does.]

Floor ten

[veniceinwinter]

Ve~ there is a saying. That there is always a bigger fish.

[The one who had made that whimsical remark steps next to her and watches the fish with attentive, gleaming eyes.]

I have always found it a comforting saying.

Enil Aidem | Wild ARMs 4

[makesfearstrue]

[There's a woman standing on the fifty-sixth floor, known to be the hospital ward of the Tower. Oddly as the lights flicker on and off, she doesn't seem to be unfazed by it. If anyone knew her, it would be far from the truth.

As she leaves, you might catch her going upwards but be careful not to scare her: she doesn't scare easily and might throw it back at you. Dare approach?]

Archer/Gilgamesh | Fate/Prototype

[bowandblade]

[He found it oddly fascinating how a single tower could hold so many different environments within it. Truly, it was a tower (or perhaps an entity? whatever it was, it was interesting) that he would not mind possessing, if ever it fell within his realm to own it. But Gilgamesh was not looking to expand his territory -- not yet, anyway. After all, why should he take upon a new territory like this tower if it holds more ills than treasures? The king could be pragmatic when he deemed it suitable.

In any case, the golden-haired king can be found wandering around. On floors with places to climb, he can be found perched and looking down upon his surroundings.

Or he can be found lounging around on a couch somewhere, punching at keys on his cellphone, playing some game or another.]

[puppy_lancer]

[Lancer stops and stares at the man lounging on the couch.]

...Archer.

[His Archer. In a way, this is less expected than the face of an absolute stranger.]

Ryoji Mochizuki | Persona 3 'bad end' AU - see his journal for details

[plumesofdusk]

[ It's weird, at first, to be among so many living people after so long in a dead world, and for a while Ryoji finds it overwhelming. It takes time for him to remember how to be charming and how to smile so no one thinks anything is wrong. But he adjusts as well as he is able, and after that it's a relief to know that there are many worlds where life flourishes. Even so, he can feel the strong pull of despair in this place, and he wonders sometimes if he managed to reach the roof, if the rest of Nyx - now more or less whole and able to traverse the stars once more - would come here, too. Most of the time, however, he doesn't think about it much and instead simply tries to to keep himself distracted, and he quickly develops a few favorite haunts.

Floor 3 and/or 14
It has long amazed Ryoji how enduring pieces of art and entertainment are, even when the species that produced them is long gone, and of course such wonderful things never fail to be distracting! Don't mind if you stumble across Ryoji sprawled across a table in the library, reading, or if he's getting a little teary over a beautiful movie about small furry animals. He doesn't... really seem bothered by the occasional bursts of static or the feeling of someone watching him watch other things.

Floor 11
This floor, Ryoji has decided, is beautiful and fascinating, and he spends perhaps more time than he should sitting and watching the lake waterfall off the side of the tower or lying on the steps and looking at the flowers up above. Be careful, though. You might trip over him!

Floor 49
Who built this floor? It's terrible! Ryoji is completely lost! It's so shiny here, and there are so many reflections... How does he find his way out?! .... help him maybe? Just maybe don't mind if sometimes he forgets to keep his form human and you see something dark and deadly in the mirrors. Or maybe if a monster comes, you might get to see him let loose... ]

floor 49

[brbmakingfriends]

[Oh look at the so many mirrors! Have a pink pony hopping through the maze. At each mirror, Pinkie makes a funny face. If it's suppose to be a different mirror or not it doesn't concern this pony. And did she see a dark figure in one mirror? Oh well, Pinkie points her hoof and laughs before falling back. Nothing personal, she laughs at anything scary.]

Pinkie Pie | My little ponies

[brbmakingfriends]

[...What is this? A huge cafeteria with people making disgusting faces? Someone should fix that! Have one pink pony rolling in a cannon about her size in. Light the fuse and there goes a loud BOOM with some balloons and--

]

[keybearer]

[...A pink pony... in the tower.

Um. Give Riku a second to process this. He's not surprised by the idea that pink ponies exist, no. It's just... the tower is so dark and twisted.]

You sure this is the place for a party?

Sokka | Avatar: The Last Airbender

[sokasm]

[As nature dictates of someone as curious as he is, Sokka is exploring. He's been wandering around the tower for a few hours, looking for someone he might know or maybe some way out of this place.

He's spent a lot of his time in the library too, trying to figure out where he actually is, geographically speaking. So far, he has come up with two options. He's either in the spirit world, which if so is even weirder than his friend Aang had described to him. Or he's dead and the universe decided to send him to a weird... "tower"... place... as punishment for being his regular charming self just to mess with him. That's all he's got. Because if this is the real world and he really has been kidnapped, then so far this whole place breaks every rule of the world he knows. Which nope, not possible.]

[tohko_amano]

[Tohko, being a librarian, couldn't help but notice a boy wandering the shelves and looking around as she worked. She also just couldn't leave a patron in need alone. So, smiling, she walked up to him.]

Good morning! Need help finding anything?

Pokemon Adventures | Gold

[thegoldenchild]

Exploring the Halls

[Well this was an odd place to end up. A boy of about the age of 16 or so, glances to and fro. He is quick to assess that he was not in Johto anymore and he needed to come up with a plan fast. He is quick to check an item count first.... No. they weren't there. His family, his team! Gone!

Of course they were in a trunk near the foot of his bed...but let him panic for now.

Not even taking up notice about the white spandex he had been placed in. He is quick to search around the room, trying to find his belongings. It is here that he comes to find the trunk. A sigh of relief is heard as he opens the trunk and notices his pokeballs all accounted for. It is now that he noticed the gaudy clothing he had been placed in.

He shakes his head in disgust and comes to put the clothes he was familiar with on, that were in his trunk. Now that he had his pokemon, clipped and stored on his belt, he lets a typhlosion some out.]

Alright buddy...let's go exploring. Keep a close alright we don't know what we are going to find here.

Red Savarin | Solatorobo

[savarin]

Floor One

[Red sits there, still pulling at his collar, staring down at the bowl of semi-solid glop in front of him. Were they really expecting him to eat this? Everyone else had much more appetizing - okay, maybe only slightly more appetizing food, and the Caninu man had... a scoop of beige ooze. Maybe he's not worth as much as the other people here? That would explain why he was in a jumpsuit and everyone else had regular clothes on...]

[There's no way he's even touching this. Maybe someone else would be willing to share some of their meal. Now's as good a time to make friends as any, and maybe they can help explain what's going on too.]

Floor Twenty-Eight

[Now here's an interesting sight; a floor filled entirely with musical instruments. Sounds like someone's already messing around with them... perhaps they'd like some company! Red steps in carefully, taking a look around for anything that might be hiding behind a well-placed tuba; nope, nothing that he can see. Now, to find something Red actually knows how to play.]

[Hey, that looks like... yeah, Red's seen that big guitar thing before! And next to it, something that looks like the unholy union between a phonograph and a small piano; that's what he's looking for! With a big smile, the dog-man dashes over to it, plunking himself down on the stool and plinking at the keys. At least he'll have plenty of time to practice now.]

[saltwaterwounds]

[The oatmeal isn't really that bad, but when Sisuca sees a fellow newcomer staring at it she can't help but butt in. She's already replaced her jumpsuit and is wearing an apron from making her own meal, but this guy looks so confused...and he looks like a member of the Furious Roar to boot! How can she stay away when she hasn't seen one of their kind for so long?]

If you eat it all up, you won't ever have to eat it again. That's a mother's promise, okay?

America (Amelia Jones) | Nyotalia

[unalienable]

( OOC ; Pick a floor— any floor! You can either start the scenario or ask me to! I have no preference either way. )

floor 77

[keepscalm]

[He hates how damn hot it is on this floor, but the lockers are convenient for storing some of the things he'd rather not keep in his trunk. Like the flowers, leaves, and herbs he presses with the books in the library.

Meaning, obviously, that he has no plans for the actual sauna. He's got better things to do than sit around sweating in a humid room.]

Ahri | League of Legends

[firefoxxy]

[Anyone lucky enough to wander up to floor four would be surprised to see that one of the sofas has - miraculously - transformed into a white, fluffy bed of tails.

...

Or not. It's just Ahri sprawled out along the length of the couch without a care in the world, her nine tails stretched out to drape over her body like a huge, flowing blanket. Upon noticing your approach, the unabashed kitsune makes no move to beckon you closer, though she does carefully examine you from afar with those gleaming golden eyes and a curious smile.]

[adorably_evilish]

[Veigar had been at the Tower so long that there was nothing he considered a literal threat besides the wretched administrators and their power nullifying machines. Anything else was merely a blast away from oblivion thanks to his continued power growth. It was because of this that he wandered all the floors on a general basis, researching of blowing up even more minions in his constant hunger for power.

It was during one of his outings that he ventured into the fourth floor and ran into a familiar sight that stopped him on his tracks merely out of surprise.

His eyes narrowed as the intense glow coming from them turned brighter. Those tails.... they were all too familiar. In fact, it only took him a moment to snap out of the shock before he grinned wickedly, pointing a gauntleted hand in Ahri's direction.]

YOU?! What in the blazes are you doing here fox lady?

Arcueid Brunestud | Tsukihime

[nearmoon_princess]

[A young woman dressed in white stands amidst the improbable beauty of floor eleven, silently marveling at the no doubt supernatural architecture. She stares off into the distance, her feet planted at the very edge of the open room's sudden drop to the bottom of the tower, hands folded behind her back and completely silent. At first glance, one may mistake her for the various lingering phantoms about the room as her very presence is far too calm and carefree despite her abnormal surroundings, yet there she stands, as real as can be, almost as if awaiting someone's approach.]

just came across this, oops

[concept_killer]

[Ever know that feeling when you feel something and you know who it is? Well, he could always sense vampires and such but here, it was a familiar feeling that was lost on him for a few years, locked up inside a castle, eternally sleeping.

Not wanting to get his hopes up too much, he stepped out onto the floor.]

Arc...ueid?

North Italy (2P) | Hetalia

[veniceinwinter]

[The nation sits sprawled on the floor in the middle of the hallway, swaying back and forth ever so slightly as he hums a cheeful tune under his breath. The whetstone strikes along the length of the knife in tune to the music. Eyes such a dark red that they border on violet are spellbound by the motions and the smallest content smile can be found on his lips. Not a smirk, not even one of these uncannily sweet smiles, just a plain, wholesome, content smile of a man at peace.

What a precious moment of tranquility, it would be a shame to disturb it.]

[proteusmoon]

[ Perhaps, yes, but then again, Cecil isn't so certain that the middle of this corridor is a good place for someone to be doing this. In her opinion, the only safe place to do anything in the Tower is one's own dormitory room, so when she comes across the sight on her way back up from the cafeteria, the paladin approaches the young man and crouches in front of him to tell him so. ]

Excuse me, sir... I'm sorry to interrupt you, but I fear for your safety here. It isn't wise to wander the Tower, especially at night.

CANDELORO | MADOKA MAGICA (AU)

[candlemas]

[Candeloro is a Witch. A creature of despair - a living, breathing curse. The hatred and grief of the girl named Mami Tomoe given form and voice. Yet as far as Witches go, on the surface she seems....different. Her nature is kindly, and in the "ideal world" that was her lair, Candeloro did her best to be a good and worthy hostess to the guests that would never, could never leave. But a Witch is a Witch, and only darkness waits beneath the gentle and motherly veneer.]

(FLOOR 21)

[Nothing is free. Everyone pays for something in the end. This is a lesson Candeloro still dimly recalls from her former existence as a human. And quite a bit has been demanded of her today in exchange for the little tea party that Candeloro's arranged at her table; trinkets, this and that, painstakingly gathered from all over the tower. But the Witch is quick to forget the difficulties and frustrations of her labors. She would rather think about the company she'll surely attract, the guests that will definitely take a seat at her side to share all this tea and cake.

Her welcoming smiles and inviting gestures to passerby are, to that end, unmistakably deliberate.]

(FLOOR 51)

[After being forced into three very colorful (but poorly-made) sweaters, the mannequin had been making a spirited couple of attempts to sew Candeloro's eyes shut. Until, with a quiet sigh from the Witch, several golden ribbons flashed into existence and bound the humanoid (but most definitely inhuman) figure in place, to the point where it resembled more of a marionette than anything.]

My, there's no need to be so stubborn! We're almost done, all right?

[incorruptus]

[There's a monochrome man walking around, dressed exactly like an old-fashioned baseball player- he even has a bat gripped tightly in his right hand. When he sees Candeloro at her little table, however, he stops, looking over the confections and tea cups with an unreadable expression. His gaze stops at the cake though, and his eyes narrow ever so slightly.]

Sugar?

Mary Magdalene (AU) || Xenosaga

[fleshofmyflesh]

[Walking along the halls, heels clicking with each step and looking around. Two people, she can sense, that she knows well. Another whom she would give her life to protect and one who would give his to protect that woman as well. Something was different about that last one though.

This body, her body, was foreign to her now. The heavy armor that covered her arm and revealing clothing that had been placed on it made her uncomfortable.]

[temptestament]

*Mary's consciousness was unmistakeable, even with the subtle differences from what he was used to that let him know she was from a different Recurrence. He'd started to get used to everyone being just a little bit different from what he remembered, anyway. It was what he saw when he appeared in the hallway, dressed in casual if outdated clothes, that surprised him. So in her Recurrence...well.*

Mary...

Link | Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | Hyrule Decline AU

[sevenyears]

[Hyrule is gone.

The words repeated itself over and over again throughout his head as he stumbled through the hallways, still disoriented from the clear feeling of death and the sleep paralysis. He knows not just what this place is, but nevertheless, all he did was to keep on walking.

For what? He doesn't know. But.

Staying here is something he doesn't want to do.

He'd rather be out in the ruins rather than being saved, to be honest.]

[snowdriftassassin]

[And walk he did, right into a tall, mint hued trolless who looked at him curiously for a second before offering a warm smile.]

Oi mon, joo okay? Ya seem kinda down in da dumps there.

[Though he did look familiar, he wasn't the one she had met before... maybe a new Tower denizen?]

Genesis Rhapsodos | Final Fantasy VII | AU

[rhapsoidein]

Waking up in a tower like this was not something she expected. Then again, she doubted anyone would have expected this. The sleep paralysis had not frightened her, at least not at first. Genesis was not one to wake up and immediately move, especially when in a bed she had not been in before. No, she took stock of where she was and once she felt able enough to move, she did.

Now, Genesis was walking about the halls. She recognized nothing, nor the people around her. And most distressing of all, had her world truly been destroyed? But how? Gaia should have been left in capable hands until she was to awaken! Perhaps that's why she awoke here, Minerva did not want her guardian destroyed and let her be saved. But Genesis wasn't so sure being in a tower for the rest of her life, a collar about her neck was a good alternative.

The redhead crossed arms lightly, her old leather jacket creaking softly. She sighed heavily with a shake of her head, her wing fluttering. "Goddess, was this truly in Your plans for me?"

Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess, indeed.

Have an AU Sephiroth!

[pinnaculum]

When Sephiroth caught sight of the woman, his first thought was that there was something familiar about her, although he couldn't remember seeing her before in the Tower. He couldn't name the reason for the sense of familiarity, but it was undeniably strong. It was enough to make him curious, and his motto was: when curious, approach.

"Hello." It was his usual brief greeting, delivered as he looked up at her. He was a child of few words, at times.

Sakura Matou | Fate/Stay Night

[cherrygrail]

[ Here's another new kid who's suspiciously glaring at the Oatmeal. She's already tried it, and she's literally appalled at the taste of it. It's practically an insult to the art of cooking, as far as she's concerned. ]

I wonder if I have to eat all of it...?

[nohurryforglory]

Umu, indeed you must! It is a crime against one's stomach to eat it, but this it truly cannot be helped. [Saber almost wants to point out YOU CUT YOUR HAIR but no there's been so many shenanigans here she's willing to bet this isn't the NPC nurse she knows.........]
