Characters: All the Heroes of Light and their Moogles.
Where: Order's Sanctuary, The Interdimensional Rift and their Homeworlds.
When: August 03rd - August 30th

Summary: Following the battle against Palitutu, all the Heroes of Light were transported into the Interdimensional Rift. They were told by Palitutu they would have to find her to prove they can break the cycle-- But before they could reach their destination, a malevolent entity from the Rift stripped them from their immortality...

And now, they woke up in a decaying and dying world, most specifically in a place called Order's Sanctuary. From there they are ready to jump... Into their homeworlds! Feel free to use this post for the Mingle at Order's Sanctuary and should your homeworld be the stage for the Heroes of Lights' next adventures, feel free to make a thread for it and as many sub-thread as necessary! Please refer to the OOC Post for questions and plotting.

Warning: Whatever you come up with.

[It is almost physically hurting Santa to not say anything to Ed, but he's trying to be on his best behavior and not cause time paradoxes in front of the hot retro crowd. Seriously though, this MUST be why Ed is such a sad-sack now. He used up every ounce of cool he had on in the 1900s with the fucking magic black market. He glares at the Doc for being really fuckin' infuriating.]

How 'bout a hat? Like, a magic one that doesn't mess up your hair when you wear it. [Because priorities. If magic is real, hopefully they put it to good use like that. He turns back to Salieri.]

C'mon, is a guy like you really gonna let that stop ya? There's tons of weird shit out there to see if you're bored.

[unyieldingspirit]

[murmured:] And growing larger…

[well, maybe if there's enough of a mix of strangers and people from here they'll look normal.]

That would certainly be useful… [she might be thinking more of helmet hair, though.] Some more suitable clothes might be good, but I suspect you mean items for counter-spells. I don't suppose there's a simple ward-breaker…?

[forcegalactic]

[The Barkeep rolls his eyes at Santa's suggestion. This is a young man who does not have his priorities in order.]

Just better clothes and somethin' that'll get up to bypass security. I got healin' magic all covered.

[The magic here must be different than that on Crystallis. Casting Ultima on a door is no way to sneak in.]

[has_been_faking]

[Barkeep is thinking what Ed is, actually. He'll fill them in as Maris leads them back onto the streets and further into Chinatown. Clothes both regualr and magic? She knows someone.]

You guys might be our aces in the hole. Your skills work different than magic here. So they can't prepare against what you can do. That place looks like a normal house, but it's practically a fortress. When magic experiments go wrong, they can stay contained.

[And it conveniently gets him out of having to do much magic fakery. Good.

Salieri is still trailing after them, and he gives Santa a shrug.]

You must not know much about my kind. That's okay~ I do plan to see the world someday, but for now, this city has plenty going on to keep you busy. Like this little adventure! Of course, the guild has ways of keeping Shadows out, but if there are holes in their defenses...

[To demonstrate his point, Salieri dissipates while still walking, turning into that ethereal form he arrived in. It's dark, misty and just barely person-shaped. His eyes, now larger and elongated, faintly glow the same blue they are when he's in human form. Several normal people milling about who see him do this give the group a wide berth. Ed grumbles at him.]

Yes, Salieri, they're all very impressed. Can you please go back to human so you stop getting us attention?

[Salieri does as told, looking smug as he does so. Because he really does want to impress the new people and he feels like it's working, whether it is or not.]

[Maris leads the group to a busy, congested tailoring shop, where many people were working at machines, running supplies around, and packing shipments. She has the group wait outside while she steps off to talk to someone. After a few minutes she comes back out and flags them to follow her inside to dodge the workers and lead them through to the back. She looks uneasy, but that's due to the size of the group. It looks suspicious no matter what.

In the back of the factory they're lead to a small room with a few works and some boxes, which are being opened for display for the group. Maris waves an arm towards it all.]

Regular clothes, and not so regular clothes. You'll have to ask about each piece and what it does, but you might be able to find what you're lookin' for here. Let me guess, Doc - this is going on the tab?

[Ed grins sheepishly and nods, and then tugs on Ash's shirt sleeve. He tries to speak quietly to him.]

Do you have any cash on you?

[The group is free to take a look at the merchandise! It's low to medium quality stuff, and consisted of mostly men's fashion in the "regular" section. The enchanted stuff looks normal, but comes in an array of styles and accessories.]

[21stcenturyguy]

[Dude, Santa's totally impressed with Salieri, way more so than with Ed calling him an 'Ace'.]

So, like, are your clothes made out of shadow-stuff, or do you magic 'em when you do that? [Because, yeah, priorities. And speaking of...

Santa picks himself out a suit with a fancy waistcoat and pinstripes. He's tempted to go black, but remembering D9/8s uster's teasing about the lack of color in his wardrobe, he picks a deep blue instead. And he's totally getting that fancy hat that doesn't mess up his hair. He motions to Ed after he tries it on.]

So, like, are we gonna make a paradox, leaving the other you with a tab he never racked up?

[unyieldingspirit]

[K'pandolu turns to stare at Salieri directly, barely blinking for a few moments. He's seemed harmless so far- beyond being the talkative sort, but that trick of turning into shadow sets her on edge. It makes her think a little too much of Ascians. Hopefully as long as one or another of them has their eye on him, it won't be a problem…

She nods to Maris, hands tucked behind her back.]

Thank you very much.

[She goes to look for a hat as well- something that'll fit over her ears comfortably, for preference, and the better if they'll be hidden. Something that'd hide her tail would be good as well, though she glances at the other people around for a guide as to tops that would look in place.]
