Kay wasn't looking when the teacher first stepped through and thus was more than a little spooked when he suddenly turned around to see most of the other students gone. Looking around, he watched carefully as other people stepped through the gate and seemingly disappeared without emerging the other side. He could surmise that it was probably something magical then, perhaps similar to what hid his room from prying eyes? It was much more elegant though, and Kay busied himself with staring listlessly at the construct until it was only him and Seijo left.

The two locked themselves in a silent battle of trying to let the other go through the arch first, the unspoken battle of politeness dissuading either of them from going forth. He already could tell that the other didn't quite like eyes on him which Kay could understand, so he kept his eyes trained away from Seijo as he tried his best to out-polite him. Eventually though, Kay caved and once again bowed in thanks before stepping through the gate as well. One day. One day he would win

Catching Kendo's greeting, Kay only bowed back respectfully before pulling his hat firmly over his face letting the shadows cover everything but his mouth in embarrassment. He hadn't meant to stare or get caught doing so, so unused to people actually... acknowledging his presence. Walking slowly, he stared at the path that was supposed to be their school, wonder written over his face through his was mostly covered. No one had to even look at his face to see it though as he stopped by the arch and marveling at the beauty of nature. It looked almost like he was a little child exploring the world for the first time, not really caring that there wasn't even a school.

Probably because he hadn't actually go to school before.

Walking over to one of the trees, Kay put his free hand over the gnarled wood and gently touched it, the rough glide of his gloves rubbing up against his scars. They had a similar texture, he noted almost absently, pulling away to kneel down by the bushes. Using his cane as a balance, he marveled at the bush and wondered how fire would consume such a small insignificant life. It didn't even have a soul to speak of, the sigh unobstructed by flickering fate for once. What a silly sight.

Considering that he couldn't exactly turn off his magic.... Well guess Kay was going to get expelled in the first five minutes :D

Pushing himself up, Kay followed along with a slower pace, taking care to watch where he was going not quite understanding the sarcasm. Picking his way through the uneven terrain, he took the chance to look around at the other students. The one hat caught his eye the most was Kendo, his visible burn scar sending envy crawling down Kay's spine. How nice it must be to be able to freely showoff such signs of failure and ugliness so confidently without anyone telling you otherwise. Even his soul flickered as brightly as his pride in showing off the scar, taunting in its flickering flames that Kay had to turn away lest he do something foolish. Like try and touch it.

Instead, he turned his focus on the other student who seemed to be lingering back, though he seemed to be doing it just because he could and not for any other reason. His soul too seemed darker, ombre flames flickering in various shades of vermilion and maroon. A lonely one then, he surmised, adverting his eyes respectfully. The various flames that flickered from person to person varied creating a myriad of hues and shades that almost threatened to overwhelm Kay, such a different experience than what he was used to and the dreary souls that he had been surrounded by all his life. He wondered what other new experiences where waiting for him, but first he'd have to survive the nature walk. And judging by how many times he'd tripped or stumbled, it would certainly pose quite the challenge.

Gingerly picking his way through the tangled roots of the old forest, Kay had arrived almost an hour early just to make a good impression but thanks to the tricky terrain constantly snagging at his boots and knocking his cane out of hand, he was late. Typical. He even made an effort to dress properly, taking care to wear gloves and a low brim hat to hide away the scarring, but it seems that his soon to be classmates would be remembering him by something equally as bad.

Still, it was nice to just take in the new sights of a environment that he had never seen before. Of course, everything seemed new when you've been isolated into a single room for 15 years but even so, it was quite fascinating to see things that he had only ever read about before. For one, trees! They towered high above him and seemed to prop up the sky with its leafy boughs, stretching endlessly with thick trunks and knobby roots. What a delight it was, seeing such magnificent sights in person. And the sounds, oh they melded so beautifully from birds to the rustle of plants. Kay's own footsteps only added to it, the triplet added into the forest symphony. Breaking through his reverie, Kay entered the clearing where everyone was, being one of the last students to actually arrive. His cane thunked against the ground as he pushed himself into sight, only bowing apologetically to the chaperone. Shuffling over to the nearest tree, Kay sat down without thinking and let out a sigh as his aching feet finally got some rest. Thank goodness, he wasn't used to walking so much.

Username:
Tsukoyomi

Character Name:
Kay Anima

Character Age:
18

Personality:
A little bit of an airhead, Kay always seems like he's staring into nothing as if there's something that only he can see, never quite tethered to reality. He's a quiet one but whenever he does speak its with a profound raspy drawl that either imparts upon the listener what they need to hear at the moment or some cryptic message that only later will be understood. Kay always keeps to himself, preferring to observe as he likes his personal space and isn't very big on tactile affection, often shying away from any touch. Instead he people watches and gains happiness just by being around others who won't push him outside of his comfort zone.

Appearance:
With skin blistered with burn scars and pale red hair, it seems almost obvious that Kay is a flare. He has quite a frail body, skinny which not quite suited towards physical combat, scars running alone whatever patch of visible skin there is. While Kay likes to wear clothes that mostly cover himself and by extension his scars, he does like comfy clothes that he can move easily in. He does use a cane to get around because of old injuries

Backstory:
Once upon a time there was a child thrown into the flames. It was left to burn and be reborn in its flames, a life taken through heretical beliefs. Unlike that child, Kay was born in the flames, made whole by it and living by it. Though, for those who wished otherwise he never quite lived up to a silent hope that they all had for him.

Power:
Soul Flare
He can see the fires that governs a person's soul. From lifespan to future, these flames tell a person's story though must be touched in order for these tales to be passed on. He can't manipulate it no matter how hard he tries aside from his own, but the fire doesn't do much damage... it just hurts to hold

Palpad?:
Sure

Hello Traveler.
In order to finish booking your travel plans, please send an email to the following address (ꋫꁒꑛꐟꁕꍟ@ꌚꆂ꒓꒓ꐟꁹꆂ꓅ꋫ꒓ꍟꋫ꒒ꍟꁒꋫꂑ꒒.ꆂ꒓ꁍ) with the information below:

[Once again, I must face the consequences of my actions... How Homophobic....]

Name:
Laurence Fujisaki

Callsign:
Sephina

Gender:
Everything and Anything, All of the Time

Pronouns:
He/Him, She/Her

Sexuality:
Gay, take that as you will

Age:
21

Occupation/Job:
Grey Hat Hacker

Appearance:
With unkempt hair and a not very strong fashion sense, Laurence fits the stereotypical depictions of a hacker who hasn't left his basement in ten years. Its clear that he doesn't care much for his appearance, often layering up with varsity jackets and sweatpants without care in the world that those two articles of clothing really shouldn't go together. Once upon a time, Laurence dyed his hair teal but it has been so long that his roots have long outgrown the color, just leaving small traces of the dye

Personality:
INTP - Logician | 6w5 - Guardian

Lazy and unmotivated, that's the interpretation that everyone has of Laurence. And honestly? Yeah. Yeah Laurence is lazy and unmotivated if you want her to be. She has very little care about most things and throws herself in work, often ignoring other things such as self care or other outside factors. He's extremely good at his job and funnels his limited energy into that as much as he can. Anyone who approaches him with be met with blunt words and cold sarcasm. Sephina though. Sephina is aloof and cold but in a way, still kind. Sephina is the co-worker that people like, Laurence is the asshole that everyone loves to hate but can't fire because he's too good to lose.

Backstory:
Laurie is the child of a cyber security analyst and a physicist. Growing up with two different cultures, a lot of his life was filled with science and coding, his parents subconsciously pushing him towards a job close to theirs. It wasn't the ideal life for her as she wasn't all that interested in such boring profession, but she did like braking her mother's codes. That was fun. At first he didn't put much effort into school or anything but got pulled into the world of hacking. Sitting in his room while tearing his mother's work apart was actually really fun and he poured his energy into it, helping his mother beta test her security measures by breaking it. Some things happened, character development began to start, and voila! One traumatized child who now hacks government websites for pay

Theme Song:
Penguin's Detour - Hayashida

Favorite Color:
Teal but she doesn't really care

Role Model in American History:
(I hate that I had to actively search up american history for a roleplay....)
Dr. Chien-Shiung Wu - Crowned the Queen of Nuclear Research, Dr. Wu made significant advancements in the field of nuclear research and had a critical role in the Manhattan Project. She was the first woman to serve as president of the American Physical Society and was quite the experimental physicist.

Once again, jokes on spooky narrator, Uyu doesn't sleep. As the sun began to crest over the horizon, still hidden by the massive that made up the city, there was a click as Uyu's apartment door was unlocked and the owner stepped through. To put things kindly, he looked like a model who had just come back from a shoot that had involved getting a car to run over him. His migraines were getting worse and honestly an annoying high pitched whining has been following around ever since he got in the car and sped home. Thank goodness there weren't any other drivers on the road at the time.

Collapsing on the couch, Uyu dropped off his goods on the coffee desk and closed his eyes for a moment. It stung for a moment as he let himself sink into the ratty fabric. Maybe if he was lucky, he wouldn't ever wake up. But unfortunately, that's not how life works. With shaking hands, Uyu fumbled with a medicine box holding a hoard of painkillers because apparently he was a child and couldn't open those damn child safety locks. Popping a few in and washing it down with Sprite, Uyu nearly fell out of his seat when his Blackberry brick vibrated out of his pocket, clattering onto the floor. He kind of wanted to cry actually.

Picking up his phone as best as he could, Uyu scrolled to his mail and clicked it open when he saw that he had a new mail. Reading through it, his lips curled into an ugly snarl as he gently placed the device face down. What happened next is definitely not PG-13 so uh.... well use your imagination. There's a sleep deprived man who's ready to throttle the next person he comes across. You can guess.

Snatching his keys off the ground and enough supplies for a few days that he had thrown together in his rage, Uyu stormed out of his ruined apartment, slamming the door shut on a room trashed beyond belief. Fine. He'd play, but only to give whoever was running this whole thing a new necklace. A custom made one that fit so snugly around their neck that it would be quite difficult to breath. Yes, something like that would be a perfect thank you gift.

Watching the chaos caused by silly fire, Bora snickered and poured another cup of tea, humming along to the tune of everyone's panic. It wasn't like people's pain was humorous, but in such a situation Bora would gladly take any bouts of comedy that were present with the greatest of joys. And honestly, the Old Fart had it coming, he had been a right pain to deal with ever since Bora decided to not bother with any of the higher political shebang and chose to live a simple life. He had even tried to set up an arranged marriage with his own kid which, ew. Bora had never been thankful for the already present fiance that had been agreed upon even before Bora's birth. "I wonder if I should warm my tea with that fire..." Bora mused, taking a sip of the cooling drink

"At your disposal, I'll do my best to keep everyone safe.”

Name:
Maquia

Gender:
Male

Age:
26

Defector or new to the otherworld?:
Defector

Group:
Copycat

Personality:
Ask about Maquia from anyone and you're more likely to get a "I'm sorry, who?" more than anything. As someone who dislikes staying in the spotlight and just prefers to silently help others, Maquia is the perfect candidate for a medic, a job that he doesn't seem too perturbed with undertaking. He's deeply empathetic and is more than willing to be a kind and compassionate listener, often carefully paying attention to the needs of each person around him, and reaching out at the right time. While he isn't the best conversationalist and more than a little introverted, Maquia is one of the pillars that keep moral high within his faction simply by lending his shoulder to cry on. Even more remarkably, he seems not to understand how precious his ability to develop sincere and strong relationships with everyone really is, content to stay the nameless pseudo-therapist.

Personality Type:
ISFJ - The Defender
As someone who feels a deep responsibility towards taking care of others and extremely hardworking. He's quite practical as well, always does what is needed without much complaining and does it doing quite effectively as well. Maquia doesn't like to talk about himself much, preferring instead to focus on others. He has pretty medium to big cheez-it energy as he looks completely serious and no-nonsense but sometimes he just says the wackiest things that no one can really disprove because what are they going to do? Tell the medic that Bismuth is poisonous? He's the healer here, not you

2w1 - The Companion
If you are to confide with anyone, it would be Maquia. He is great at providing comfort and will keep your secrets but don't expect any meaningful advice as he isn't very good at putting his thoughts into words. He will judge you too, be prepared for that as his deadpan look of disappointment is enough for people to wonder if talking about this to their mother would be less painful. Outwardly, he doesn't show much visible emotion but he still does his best to support those who seek him

Description:
A well dressed young man who looks quite put together despite the circumstances. His soft appearance is in stark difference to the ruthless fighting going on around him, his air of innocence untainted despite the horrors. Although he looks like nothing but a newcomer who has just arrived to the scene, one shouldn't underestimate the gentle medic for his copycat abilities have been honed with precision and speed in mind. Maquia wears his ring on his right pointer finger but also wears a simple bracelet around his wrist, covering up his own ring under black gloves to throw enemies off. It wouldn't work on anyone who looks closely, but in the heat of the battle, it is these small advantages that win the war

Height:
177 cm (5'8 ft)

Weight:
54.5 kg (120 lbs)

Skin Tone:
Pale but well taken care of. Very little scarring but small blemishes are present on the face

Hair Style:
Unkempt and messy, clearly not very much care put into it. It's styled like a bluebell and falls just under his ears

Hair Colour:
Dark navy hair that shimmers a blue under the right lighting and is present in his underhair

Eye Colour:
A dull sort of orange and yellow. They don't have much life in them.

Clothes:
Formal, if a bit tattered and ripped up. It covers much of Maquia's body, only leaving his face and neck largely uncovered. He wears a blue, black, and brown color scheme, the blues always a brighter shade to complement his hair. Multiple trinkets hang from his coat, often clinking together to herald his arrival

History:
He doesn't like to talk about himself... as far as anyone knows, he's always been a bit of a character but helpful in his own way. Very little of his past is actually know by someone other than him

Sexuality:
Disinterested in romance or sexual relations of any kind but does find people aesthetically attractive
(Asexual, Aromantic)

Voice Claim:
Ryota Osaka

Face Claim:
Lumen from Arknights

Watching as the next shift trickled in late, Elliot huffed through his nose as he leaned over the walls. There was undeniably an air of frustration that accompanied the shift as everyone had to stay behind to make up for the other's tardiness and honestly, after staying up for so many hours throughout the night, it was understandable. Finally though, Marius barked at them to leave though he did stop Elliot when he made to trudge out of the horrid walls, he was stopped by the man and given the worst news yet. Apparently, because of some incompetence in the shift, someone had to stay behind and make up for the numbers and he was the lucky lucky candidate. Face twisting into a snarl, Elliot half thought about just pushing past the old coot and just leave. He missed his husband, damn it, and after a long night of squinting into the darkness, the last thing he wanted was more standing around.

"Fine, I'll do it. But I expect that we'll get the appropriate compensation. You'll be sending better doctors to look after my family, yes?" He spat, jabbing a finger at the man. It was the least he could do, being stuck on a desolate piece of rock. He wasn't exactly happy about it, who would be, but at least it meant that his family would be getting what they needed.

Oh goodness, even the ceiling dweller was introducing himself. Sure, this man claimed that he was fixing the ceiling but anyone could see that he wasn't all that well off and his clothing, dear gods were atrocious and certainly not work safe. Uyu was going to have to make his escape before he could be roped into the idiocy by proximity alone and he made to escape as quickly as he could. Only to be foiled by the power of sheer dumb luck as the ceiling man ran into the poor scientist who looked like he was having one of the worst days of his life. Uyu couldn't blame him, he felt bad for the poor soul who had to undergo so many baffling hijinks in the space of an hour. At least the silk handkerchief that held the broken pen didn't spill open, scattering everything into the winds again. Small mercies he supposed, but it also meant that the two men who were sprawled on the ground (huh... fanfic idea perhaps even if he wasn't the type to write such literature) now blocked his one exit. Wonderful.

"So sorry to interrupt this get together, but can you please take this outside to perhaps the parking lot? Somewhere that won't block customers from accessing what they need, preferably?" He requested the buffoons who surrounded him on all sides with the best customer service smile that he could muster. Honestly, it was really convincing, his soft and kind tone betraying none of his growing frustrations. For all those listening, it really did seem like this poor shopper was caught up in the madness and just wanted out while harboring no ill will towards anyone. Which, really. Was the truth. Uyu might have to pull out the wine bottles though.

Flinching hard as Uyu was bumped into, stumbling as his heels clicked on the polished floor, his mind immediately switched to customer service mode as he gave him a kind smile. "Oh don't worry about it. Here, you dropped your pen. Let me help you." He smoothly, taking out a handkerchief from seemingly out of nowhere with a flourish. Kneeling down, he draped the silk cloth over the scattered pile of machinery and frowned for a second. It wasn't anything normal that he recognized but he wasn't about to go prying. People deserve their secrets and Uyu had his own fair share of them. A quick wrist flick had the cloth bundled up in a neat package, most of the parts wrapped up within the handkerchief all safe and away from prying eyes. "Here you go, sir. Best not be running to quickly now or your next unfortunate victim might not be so kind, yes?" Holding out the parcel of parts, Uyu gave Kendo the one he gave to any frightened customer and dropped the package into the scientist's hand.

The commotion from the aisle was reaching unbearable levels. From people falling out of vents to self introductions, everything was happening much to quickly. And not to mention that there was a pervasive feeling in his gut that these people weren't exactly strangers. "They don't seem to bad..." And there was yet another reason why he shouldn't even talk with them. If they were saying that they were okay, what kind of trouble would they bring? But as they were quite close even as Uyu was doing his best to concentrate on picking out chocolate, he could still overhear everything they were blathering about. So when it was revealed that there was an investigator among them, something that as definitely a law abiding citizen didn't scare him at all. Okay so maybe he technically wasn't a citizen but everything else was true! Like yeah, this Doctor Rain guy was a forensic one so its not like he'd go after Uyu about not having a passport or any form of valid identification or anything right? Surely not

Parking his cart by the clothes aisle, Uyu pulled out his phone to scroll through the internet for a few recipes. It wasn’t anything extravagant, an old blackberry model that most certainly showed his age and his preference of phones. Honestly, the built in keypad was the main reason why he had kept it around, adoring the tactile sensation of pressing down on buttons and the rolling ball that scrolled through the screen. Even with his horrible hands, there was no hindrance in his usage of it as touchscreen wasn’t even built into the phone and the phone was bulky enough for him to securely grip. The only downside might be the size, its palm-sized nature often resulting in a few minutes of frustrated grabbing as Uyu failed time and time again to pick up the blasted electronic. But still, he wouldn’t change the box of plastic and wires for any of the newer or sleeker models for anything. One, he had customized it himself for security and aesthetic purposes so it really was one of a kind, and two, it contained little stories that Uyu liked to read from time to time. Some of the entries were vaguely familiar in the way that re-reading a well loved novel was familiar, but the silly mundane adventures that the writer went on was always interesting to read. The writing choices were frames as a diary so many of the characters weren’t named and simply called “Dad” or “my cat”. It was certainly a riveting read, following the unnamed narrator as she grew up. One of the few pieces of entertainment left that could still accommodate his shaking hands.

Rolling the plastic ball, Uyu skimmed a recipe for Trifle cups while keeping an eye on what he already had. With how much he was buying today, he might actually have to rent out the test kitchen. Might put a dent into the funds but hey, at least they could make up for it in the expanded menu. Hopefully. Mulling over what best to put in these highly customizable desert cups, Uyu pushed his cart towards the plastic cup aisle to get some aesthetic cups for his creation. Plain see-through would honestly best considering that the main allure of such a dish was gazing at the delicate layers that the dish provided, marveling at the marbling of colours that melded together in a harmonious finish in one’s mouth. Visual design was just as important as the actual flavours even if some people took it too far and only focused on the dish’s appearance. Sure, Uyu wasn’t an actual certified chef that went to chef school and had chef certification, just one who liked to experiment with food and make new things for fun (and for profit because his business wouldn’t be standing if that wasn’t the case) but he had pride in his creations. Kitchen Witchery was a delicate art he’ll have you know and he was a good one at that (that and if he dared bake with the wrong intentions or came into a such a space with anything less that his whole mind present on the act then his work would backfire and no one likes it when spells actively mess up your day).

Passing by three people who were just staring at each other, Uyu stared for a bit before deciding to ignore those weirdos (while ignoring the tug on his own heart telling him to look back) and breezed past them towards the glassware. Pulling a few of them into the cart, he staunchly avoided the aisle with the staring trio and doubled around to the chocolate. He had already gotten everything he really needed and something extra for the employees under his payroll and having general quality of life improvements such as readily available chocolate for whatever reason was always a bonus. And so, off too the chocolate!

Only that the path to the chocolate aisle apparently took him right towards the group of bug eyed strangers plus one more! Joy. At least he looked just as fed up as Uyu felt. However, instead of asking the to move, like a sane person who enjoyed interaction would, Uyu swerved his cart to pass through the next aisle, going around the gawkers. If you couldn't beat them then just ignore them. Successfully maneuvering around them, Uyu felt a little bit of pettiness well up within him so he turned around to meet Kedo's gaze and stuck his tongue out almost childishly and snatch whatever the closest chocolate was off the shelf. Sue him, but it felt like the most natural thing to do, as if he was somehow someone that Uyu could recognize as an ally. Rare in this horrid world of theirs but the familiarity tugging his gut towards them was undeniable. But Uyu wasn't stupid and knew that these were objectively strangers. Familiar ones, but still unknown to him.

And if he had anything to say about it, it would stay that way.

What was once cold harsh winds that blew across the restless night and cut through even the thickest of cloths slowly turned into a gentler dawn breeze that gently caressed frozen fingers. Elliot let out a huff, white clouds of his own breath floating around the warming skies. Even bundled in dark fabrics, it was hard to feel his limbs after spending the night on shift. He couldn't wait to go back into his bunk and just conk out without a care in the world, wrapped in sheets that though weren't the thickest did still provide comfort and warmth. It always felt lonely to go to sleep in a twin bed with no one beside him in either event, too used to sharing a bed with his husband and army of adopted cats, but recently he had been taking more and more night shifts.

As morning heralded the end of Elliot's shift, a blessed time that was very rudely interrupted by a blaring horn that only made every guard who was set to be to sleep groan in relief. The others were waking up so soon enough, the rotation time nigh upon them.
