Voice Testing~

[shiroi_ryu]

[When he steps off the train, his movements are fluid, but with caution. Piercing green eyes regard the station with a combination of concern and suspicion, and slowly, he begins to move about it with care.

It's not just his surroundings, vastly different from what he remembers in his last memories before the darkness...and Chihiro's voice had faded away before he'd awoken on the train.

It's also the sounds and smells. It has been years since he's heard such silence - not even the babble of the workers after hours penetrated this silence, though he could sense life in this strange city.

Was this another home for spirits? He somehow highly doubted it; it didn't feel like his world.]

Regina-mun here~ I decided for the more... eh... approachable muse. XD

[bringshonor]

[The silence is interrupted by someone stumbling around the station, staring at the surroundings with a mixture of shock and awe. This isn't nowhere near medieval China.

Nowhere. Near.

She's never seen a train before - let alone could name it as one, and this method of travel had left quite the impact. Not unlike the strange new smell and the odd look of the city itself.]

Hello? Are you from here?

Re: Regina-mun here~ I decided for the more... eh... approachable muse. XD

[shiroi_ryu]

[Haku's eyes turn sharply at the sound; a human, he can tell by the smell, but he's curious. If this is a spirit city, and there was a human here...well, it wouldn't be the first time, but it would be too strange a coincidence.

He regards her clothing passively as he approaches her, and shakes his head.]

No. Like you, I've just arrived from the train. [His voice is even tempered, and older than his appearance, a youth of eleven or twelve.] Also like you, I don't know how I've arrived here, nor how to return home.

Thranduil || The Hobbit (book-verse because it's better but Lee Pace is a gorgeous elf)

[dwarves_suck_im_fabulous]

[Armed and dressed elegantly, as a king should be, the Elvenking of Mirkwood stood in the station of Ruby City with a glare upon his face. He had things more important to concern himself with than whatever nonsense this might include. The watch goes completely ignored, he wanted nothing from this strange place but a swift return to Mirkwood so that he could lead his people the Lake-town.]

Mai Valentine | YGO The Abridged Series

[notfake]

[ A blonde, tall woman stepped out of the train, staring longingly at the city. ]

My breasts are telling me that this is not good.

[overdraws]

[ Allison certainly doesn't remember getting on a train, let alone one to who knows where.

And it's almost freezing to boot. Allison hugs her torso, and steps out of the train station glancing around. ]

[sixbuckdropout]

_{[Dean's doing the same thing he does every night--making rounds through the city for both monsters and a way out. It's then he sees Allison.]}

You shouldn't be out here.

[overdraws]

[ His sudden appearance makes her jump, and she lets out a noise, relaxing when she sees that.. it's someone human.

Not that she's any less wary. ] I don't really have anywhere else to go.

[sixbuckdropout]

You need to find somewhere. It's not exactly safe out here, alright? There's some restaurants down the street. Any unoccupied building is free game.

[overdraws]

I'd really just like to try and find my house, thanks.

[sixbuckdropout]

You're new here, aren't you?

_{[Sorry, kid. He doesn't have much patience tonight. There is a werewolf in this city that he didn't kill during the full moon.]}

There's not exactly assigned housing here. Take whichever one you want that's free.

[overdraws]

[ Yep. That answers that. ] So I'm really not home. [ And that? Is more terrifying than things that go bump in the night. ] I don't know how I got here, but I want to go home.

TWO DAYS LATER I ACTUALLY GET THIS TAG DONE...

[hypercompetent]

[Stiles has lost Dean. This is a major problem. One minute, they'd been tracking Remus, trying to figure out where he'd gone and bickering that way too familiar kill him, no, catch him, argument when Stiles had turned his head and Dean was literally gone.

He's been running around looking for him ever since. When he runs past the train station, he notices a familiar head of dark hair and mentally catalogs good, Allison is here too, maybe she can--

...wait.]

--Allison?!

[Excuse him as he trips, nearly falls flat on his face, and then backpedals straight to her.]

IT'S ALL GOOD

[overdraws]

Stiles? [ What--?! Then maybe she is in Beacon Hills, and she just. Doesn't remember how she got to this one part of town that she doesn't reognize.

She jogs up to meet him. ] What are you doing here?

[hypercompetent]

What am I--what are you doing here?! [Stiles looks at her like she's made of gold, smile on his face incredulous and ridiculous--he kind of runs a hand over his hair, drops them both in a gesture of excitement.]

When did you--how did you--Oh my God, Allison, it's awesome to see you!

[He can worry about the whole...Gerard-best-friend-hunting-with-a-lack-of-redemption-quite-yet thing later. For now it's amazing to see someone from Beacon Hills.]

[overdraws]

[ She blinks, and glances over her shoulder at the train station. Okay, not Beacon Hills. ] I was on a train, and I woke up here. Stiles, where are we? Where's Scott? What's going on?

[hypercompetent]

Scott's--[He deflates a little.] Scott's not here. You're in this place called Ruby City, but, uh--

[From the distance, there's a sound that's suspiciously like a wolf howl.] Shit! [And then a sheepish sort of grin.] Some things are kind of the same? C'mon, I lost Dean Winchester and he's armed and trying to kill Remus Lupin.

[Tact is not one of his strong suits, if you haven't noticed.]

Bertholdt Fubar | Shingeki no Kyojin

[perpetuallynervous]

[A tall figure stood at the station, looking at his surroundings in obvious confusion. He had never seen such kind of railway vehicle, for starters. He surely had no idea how he got in it and much less where he was. Taking slow, careful steps, watching out for anything or anyone, he took notice of the sign on the wall.]

Ruby City..?

[It didn't ring any bell. He had never heard of any "Ruby City". His hands reached for the sword handles, defensive. He was rarely ever seen without the company of his childhood friend and now, he found himself all alone, in a place he did not know. His brows knitted, expression clearly showing his distress.]

Reiner..?

[He attempted to call out, only further worsening is affliction, as his call remained unanswered.]

Anyone?

[runofthemill]

H...hey!

[ A voice came from another point in the station. Another young man had just gotten there, just as lost, just as confused. He was sure he hadn't seen anyone else in the train, as he was sure the train had disappeared before, just as he had turned his back to it...it came back?

He took the time to look at the posters and look for any station employees or...anyone, really. It relieved him to finally hear another voice.]

Over here!

bertholdt "awkward silence" fubar

[perpetuallynervous]

[He turned his head immediately towards the voice, hands instinctively gripping the handles of his 3D maneuver gear's blades. Widened eyes observed the young male who seemed to have just arrived as well. He wasn't too sure whether to feel relieved for not being all alone in the unknown or to stress over the fact that a complete stranger answered his call, instead of that one person he wished would have. Or Annie. Or any of his squad mates, even.

Bertholdt loosened the grip, taking a step in his direction. Questioning him regarding their whereabouts didn't seem very smart, considering they both looked equally lost.]

Honey,I'm pretty sure he's the least of your worries

[runofthemill]

[ Naegi smiles of relief. The last thing he remembers is that opening door; next thing he knows, he found himself in a whole new place. No sight of his friends, no familiar places...he's just happy to see someone at this point.

His smile fades at bit when he notices the sharp weapons the other is carrying. One can't blame him for feeling a tinge of nervousness though, not after what he's been through. But still, he tries to remain his composure, swallowing dryly, looking up at the taller figure.]

H-hey, are you from around here?

Re: Honey,I'm pretty sure he's the least of your worries

[perpetuallynervous]

[He observes him silently for a moment, slowly letting go of the handles.]

N-no, I am not. I have just arrived..

I suppose you have too..?

[At least someone was there, that place wasn't complete deserted, that was.. good, he guessed. And the other one did not seem to represent any sort of threat, allowing him to relax just slightly.]

[runofthemill]

[ He does relax once the other lets go of his weapons, and it's easy to notice that the other is nervous as well. The fact that they're both newcomers doesn't easy his worries, but at least they stand on the same foot.]

Oh, huh...
Did you arrive on the train?

[That he doesn't remember ever boarding.]

spppoooooilers up in here yo

[springcleaning]

[Hey, it's crazy but everyone told him about you when he got here. Funny thing, he never even noticed you. In fact, he barely noticed you now, from where he's standing near the trains, leaned back against the wall with his arm's crossed. It's only Bertholdt's voice that catches his attention. And then Levi sneers up up up at him. Responsible for the murder of 1/3 of humanity and being irritatingly tall.]

[What an asshole.]

Oi, cadet.

oh boy

[perpetuallynervous]

[He turns his head towards the corporal's voice. The nervousness certainly doesn't fade but at least someone's there, someone he, well, has heard of before. Who doesn't know Lance Corporal Levi, mankind's biggest weapon?]

Sir..!

[Bertholdt turns around to face him, promptly saluting his superior.]

[Poor thing's completly unaware of whatever you hear about him upon your arrival, corporal.]
