[Shuttle]
You've arrived! You've been seen by a coolly efficient (what you hope is a) medical professional - after all they did give you a shot of something. Then you were handed a slew of things you're still trying to process - communication devices, a ring (which is also a key?), a piece of transparent film that's flashing information. And clothing, that was a thoughtful gesture. And then there was the explanation - You've been taken (isn't that a nice way of saying 'kidnapped') by that floating orb of light, you can't leave, but while you're here you get room and board. Is that really a fair trade? Oh, and to top everything off, you have a set of gem like stones set into your chest, that you can't remove.

Before you know it, you've moved with the crowd towards the shuttle and now that you are sitting down, it's now suddenly sinking in.

You are so very far from home.

[NOTE: Please note that the actual arrival process is different from the above scenario - please see the New Arrivals Page for a detailed explanation of the arrival process.]

[Cafeteria]
You’re hungry, and though the smells coming from the cafeteria are strange, they are alluring. The grumble in your belly tells you it’s worth chancing.


~ ~


[Multipurpose Common Area]
You’re bored but haven’t quite worked up the courage to venture out into the greater parts of the station. The common area of the residential community seems like it might provide some distractions. And the view out the large windows lining one wall is simply stunning.


~ ~


[The Center Station Central Gardens]
In an environment where spatial expansion is finite, it seems extravagant to house a garden this big. What looks like giant trees at first glance, turn outo be the wire structures that rise up six stores before fanning out actually house various breeds of creeping vines. There are two levels of raised walkways that wind around the vine structures. The ground level also wraps lazily through various plots of vegetation. There is enough variety of plants here to keep anyone interested for hours.


~ ~


[Cemetery Ring]
If you’re in more for a somber atmosphere, the Cemetery Ring is open to everyone.

The first sign posted outside the door reads "We are the lights that shines brightest against the night." The sign below it simply says "All are welcome."

This wide corridor, that traverses the whole very top of the Inner Rings, is dimly lit, but pinpoints of light twinkle all over the wall. The wall juts out in an effort to create more surface area for memorials to those Owmi who have passed on to the next life since the Owmi started their nomadic journey.

The peacefulness of the room is inviting.


~ ~


[Strange Lights - previous plot]
Something strange is happening. You've been here just a few days and before you can even get used to the fact you are an abductee of a glowing ball of light, you now have an aura of lights hanging around your head. The colors change, and if you watch them for a moment (from a mirror - they are hard to get a good look of out of the corner of your eye) you notice they match the colors of the gem like stones fixed to your chest. And if you're really observant, you might catch on that the colors and intensity of the lights change with your mood.

[Pinkie Pie's Fun Day Celebration - previous plot]

Confetti/Glitter Bombs!
Sometimes there’s a pair of eyes watching various residents going in and out of their rooms. Or walking around the habitat station at various places. Wherever your character may be, Pinkie is waiting with a bucket full of confetti or glitter. She forgets which one she takes with her since she prepared so many for this day. How she’s getting around without being noticed is a mystery, but that works just fine for her!


Common Area Mingling!
At the common area, Pinkie has the entire place decked out with balloons, confetti, several piñatas hanging from the ceiling (how did they get up there?!), and an area set up for games. She couldn’t find the actual games like the ones back home, so she had to make them herself. There’s chess, Twister, but instead of boring circles, there’s images of pink icing-covered donuts, chocolate chip cookies, blue cupcakes, and pistachio ice cream cups taped to the floor in four rows of ten, a place to play card games with images of herself in various costumes along with the card suits. There are several cakes with names attached to them on any table she could find. There’s one large cake with no name for everyone and everypony to share! It’s oddly plain, isn’t it? Not suspicious at all!

There’s also snacks like fruit, cheese, crackers, cookies, and drinks to enjoy! No alcohol, though! Sorry! This party is rated G!

And of course the party has piñata. A blindfold and stick are ready for the first challenger! Choose any piñata there! One looks dangerous! They’re filled with candy! Or confetti! Or both!

“Step right up, ladies and gentlecolts! Try your luck and break open a piñata!”

[NOTE: Please note that Pinkie Pie is no longer in game, so she will not be responding to any threads using this option.]

[Planet Exploration: Baj E'oku Prime - current plot]

A new opportunity! No longer do you need to wander the giant space Habitat Station. You now get the opportunity to explore a section of the planet Baj E'oku Prime. It's small, tidal locked planet. The area you can explore is dusty and red with surprising wild life. There are canyons and highlands, rivers and caves to explore. (See link for greater details.) What adventures or trouble will you find?

"Course it's me. What were you expecting? A different face?" Which Ten is teasing a bit.

As The Doctor embraces the hug back, "Lonely? How is it lonely? You've got so many fasnicating people here."

He pauses and looks her in the eyes, "Ohhhh.." As his voice becomes more somber, "They're gone aren't they?"
notrosesshadow: (tears)

Don't worry. She's actually getting help in the game and won't be quite this bad if he shows up.

[personal profile] notrosesshadow 2016-06-29 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
"I screwed up," she replied. "And now people think I'm from Harry Potter's world but I'm not. And I haven't slept in days. And..."

She can't meet his eyes.

"When are you from? Things are a little hairy in my time."
Edited 2016-06-29 00:59 (UTC)
borntolove: (What)

So I've been told on dear player

[personal profile] borntolove 2016-06-29 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
"Why do they think that? Why haven't you slept in days?... Martha.. I want to help."

"Hairy? How? We just saved New York from the Daleks." Ten states with an edge in his voice.
notrosesshadow: (WTF?)

Re: So I've been told on dear player

[personal profile] notrosesshadow 2016-06-29 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
"The Daleks?" She steps back and looks at him warily. "That was so long ago." And not helpful. Not at all.

She turned to the wall and reached out to a gara. Her fingers ran along it as her thoughts raced.

"When I arrived... I got in an argument with Regulus Black and I told him I was a Ravenclaw. And I've been trying to keep that lie going as long as possible. The rest... the rest is ahead of your time."
borntolove: (Running out of time)

[personal profile] borntolove 2016-06-29 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
Ten watches Martha step back from him, "It was only today." There's a silence on the Time Lord's part. How is his companion is further ahead of him than he is in the timeline, "Alright, this hasn't happened before.... I don't like how this place works."

As Ten states that his eyes dart above and around at the ceiling. His eyes eventually falling back on Martha, "So Harry Potter is a real world in this conglomeration?" Ten pauses as he continues his voice become more ominous, "This place is worse than I thought. This has become a multi-verse level of impact. Someone's broken down the glass in the void and all the worlds are leaking through here. That's how I got here without the Tardis. And you as well."
notrosesshadow: (hiding)

[personal profile] notrosesshadow 2016-06-29 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
"The Okarella," Martha replied. "I don't know much about it other than it brought us here. And gave us these." She fingered the garas on her chest. He couldn't actually see hers, but she figured he knew what they were.

"When we saved Manhattan from the Daleks. Hm." She smiled at that. "That was one of the good ones. But I shouldn't say anymore. Shouldn't tell you your future."

She sobered again. He hadn't experienced anything useful. In fact, if she's not mistaken, he was likely still hung up on Rose in a very real way. A way that kept him from seeing her completely.

"Has the time sickness passed for you yet?"
borntolove: (Strange)

[personal profile] borntolove 2016-07-03 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Well - then. Looks like something to get to the bottom too." Especially, if it is powerful to teleport Ten here without his Blue Box. "What are the functionality of those things?"

The Doctor smiles back, "You were brilliant. Ah! But the future's here. At least till we both find a way back and I catch up with you... So, funny never thought I'd tell you that." As The Doctor squints about that notion.

"Did the Tardis arrive with you then?"

The Doctor goes unusually quiet, "Why did you lie to that Sirius person?" There is an underlying answer, with him not answering the question directly that the answer to her question is, no.
notrosesshadow: (tears)

[personal profile] notrosesshadow 2016-07-03 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"The Garas? Or the Okarellas? I'm not fully sure. I think they have something to do with their science, but I haven't a full idea."

Her breath catches, and her eyes fill with tears when he mentions the TARDIS; she shakes her head. "No. No TARDIS with me. I arrived naked like you." At least, she assumed he arrived naked like everyone else.

"Regulus? I arrived at a bad point in my timeline. He outed himself as a wizard and pissed me off. It was a spur of the moment, and now I have to keep it up."
borntolove: (Believe)

[personal profile] borntolove 2016-07-04 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Both, actually." This is a bit of a switch around Martha having to tell The Doctor about how the place functions.

"...Alright then. Doesn't this place just become more interesting?" Ten replies with a chipper and eager tone in his voice before his expression becoming more serious and his hands hold Martha above the waist gently.

"Martha... Whatever happens in my future. It can't be the worst thing. I'm here now and let's focus on that." As he tries to lock his eyes with hers.

There's a beat before he kind of goes a bit of a ramble, "Funny thing about lies. Sooner or later the truth comes out. And it can bloody nasty sometimes."
notrosesshadow: (anger)

[personal profile] notrosesshadow 2016-07-04 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"You haven't lived it Doctor. Besides, it's not your fault. It's mine." She refuses to let him lock eyes with her though, choosing to look down at his chest instead as she puts her mask back on. No reason to cry. "But you're right. You're here now. Let's focus on that." Her eyes finally lock with his, though they're hard and dull now. He can't help, so she won't expend the energy on the emotions. Because that won't backfire spectacularly.

She inhales sharply. "I'll deal with it when I deal with it. But I want to be the one to tell him and Lily. Okay?"
borntolove: (Strange)

[personal profile] borntolove 2016-07-07 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
Now, he's really thinking that he dies in front of her as he stares in her hard and dull eyes. Which he doesn't want to do. He has a number of reasons, he does like this body. He also doesn't want to use up another regeneration. Not to mention the trauma that causes those around him. Ten remarks very grimly and sympathetic.

"I'm sorry, Martha. Rather I will be sorry." He pauses and sort of playful remarks, "Time wibbly wobbly."

Then he perks up, "There's my bright girl."

Pulling his mouth downwards, The Doctor nods, "Want to give me the tour?"
notrosesshadow: (Intense)

[personal profile] notrosesshadow 2016-07-12 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Martha finds herself very ready to move past the topic. He can't help her, so she's not going to worry about it. Now.

"Sure! I can show you that, though if you've found the graveyard, you've made a pretty good dent in what we have access too. I didn't make it out here for a few days.
borntolove: (Faith)

[personal profile] borntolove 2016-07-12 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
"Rightyo!" The Doctor seems to bounce a tad ahead of Martha in excitement. "Well - I didn't per say look all over. More like took a gander is all." Ten's face becomes hard as he continues on, "This particular section just drew me in."

There's a pause as his face becomes more chipper, "What's your favorite part?"
notrosesshadow: (oh really?)

[personal profile] notrosesshadow 2016-07-13 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"My favorite part?" She asks, a little taken aback. She thinks through all the places she typically visits and has to admit to herself that she really does like the graveyard. The glittering garas are quite striking, and she finds it beautiful, and peaceful. But it sounds morbid.

"I do appreciate this one particular park..." she begins. "I could take you there."
