01/04 Nonah: Closed to Maya

[What a time to get ported into a whole other world. Everything about the process was a mess, not only did Komasan not understand the basic rundown every new imPort got upon arrival, but with the added bonus of a whole city locked down and something about a guy ripping someone's heart out, there's no way he couldn't find any of this absolutely terrifying.

The night Komasan arrived, he immediately hid in his new De Chima bed, in a body that wasn't even his. By some sort of miracle, when he awoke, he found himself normal again. Of course, he never read his file so he had no idea it was some sort of power that lead to that, he was simply grateful something was going right.

And that was it, everything was downhill from there. The tiny dog thing made the poor decision to explore this new world in hopes to find someone or something familiar, only to instead find himself extremely lost. Like, a whole other city lost, somehow he found himself in Nonah and he was now searching the housing area for his own home. ...The one in De Chima.]

Nothing here looks familiar, z-zura...

[WHY? WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? Why is everything so scary? Why are cars so weird? Speaking of, the moment a car rushes by down the street, Komasan loses it. He can no longer keep his composure and begins running for his life.]

MONGE!! [He's screaming at this point. Just when he thought he knew enough about city life, he just had to be sent to...the future, probably. It feels like the future.] P-Please don't steal my heart, z-zura!

[Worried an attack was bound to happen, Komasan takes shelter in the only thing he can find: The nearest trash can. He shakes like a leaf, the can rattling along with him, and he can only hope his imaginary predator doesn't stick around for long.]

[Open Prompts; Forward dated past 01/07]

[A] It's the Ice Cream Prompt (De Chima)

[Once everything's settled and done, Komasan supposes he's spent enough time in Nonah and should probably do that job he was assigned to. He's already embarrassed enough by being several days late, what sort of work ethic is that? Hopefully his boss will understand things like states of emergencies, Komasan just wouldn't feel safe traveling while everything's turned upside down. ...Even if it was happening in Heropa.

Either way, the ice cream shop in De Chima seems to be gathering some sort of crowd despite the weather, something must be going on. Indeed, something is! If you manage to get inside, you may notice there's a strange looking new guy creating rather elaborate looking ice cream sculptures. People walk out with cones shaped as various adorable animals, the details surprisingly good for a medium such as a frozen dessert. Komasan knows he should be creating unusual flavors right now, but for a first day, this isn't so bad. He isn't getting yelled at, anyway. This will just be the tip of the iceberg...

You may catch him creating something fantastical, or if you happen to catch him on his break...right under the soft serve machine, pouring frozen deliciousness down his mouth. At the moment, his imPort status and the crowds he's creating are the only thing keeping the manager from kicking his ass, he'll just have to...take it out of his pay.

If you happen to come by at the end of his shift, though, you might find that very same weird guy suddenly transforming into a tiny bipedal dog as he happily walks out the store after a job well done. Well, that just happened.]

[B] Just Touch All the Things (De Chima)

[After his job or when he isn't working, Komasan does like to explore around the city. It reminded him of all the times he got to play in the one back home, usually with his brother. So far Komasan has gathered that he's in the US, which isn't so bad, but he never realized the US lacked youkai this badly.

He's made it his mission to find them.

So you might find him poking his nose in just about every place possible. Looking under vending machines, digging through trash, climbing up trees. Just about anywhere one might find a tiny monster, one tiny dog monster will be there. So...technically he wasn't wrong!]

This is so weird, zura... I could've sworn there were US youkai, zura...

[And other such mumblings can be heard.]

[C] Wildcard

[Thinking of something else? Go ahead and throw it at me! It's more than likely Komasan will explore the other cities after the Pan event, so if you want your character to bump into him there instead of De Chima, go right ahead! If you want to plot something out, feel free to contact me at Gesomon!]

C arrives late with nothing

[insatiableinappetite]

[Kira Yoshikage just wanted a quiet life, but everyone in this stupid American country kept getting in the way of that. It was a long past couple days, with his suit ruined and his normally calm demeanor pretty soured.

But no matter, Kira knows how to keep a level head. The average man decided the only remedy to completely obliterating his memory of this weekend by buying a new bath bomb.

...that's when he finds a flaming eyebrow dog in front of his housing.]

...oh look that poor dog's on fire. Shame.

[He doesn't sound too concerned.]

[monge]

[It's one of those rare times Komasan decides to actually check on the house he supposedly lives in. They gave it to him, after all, seems like a waste of a whole house if he didn't use it.

It's not like anyone else lived there-- oh wait.

There's...a...guy???]

E-Eh, but...I like being on fire, zura.

[By the sound of his accent, it should be very obvious to Kira that his new flaming friend is 100% countryfolk. Surely they will be the best of friends.]

[insatiableinappetite]

[Kira was about to head in when the dog talks. Yeah, sure. The dog talks. Because in Hell America dogs on fire talk.

...well no. This one seems to be a country bumpkin from his own country. Kira looks taken aback by the existence of talking dog but talks with him anyway.]

So...what would happen if someone put you out?

[monge]

E-Eh? Why would someone put me outside, zura?

[What a funny man, asking funny things. Komasan doesn't even ponder the question for too long before he's opening the door. To the house. Kira lives in.

Say hello to your new housemate.]

See? I can open doors all by myself, no one needs to let me out, zura.

[insatiableinappetite]

People are naturally curious. It's not often they see a flaming dog.

[Kira takes a single step before he realizes just what Komasan is doing.

That's funny but no.]

...this is my house. We already have one dog.

[monge]

O-Oh, I'm sorry, my mistake, zura.

[Komasan takes his file and begins to reread it as he walks away from the house, shaking his head in shame at his silly mistake. He can't believe he has the wrong house, or...well, he supposes he can, it's not like he stayed at it for very long. It makes sense that he would forget what it looks like.

...But by time he reaches the end of the drive, he looks up from his file, stares at the house numbers and...walks right back. His paws never touch the street. As he begins to return, he throws a paw in the air, surprised to see Kira suddenly by his door. Looks like he must've missed him already, what a nice man.]

Hello~ What are you doing at my house already, zura?

[insatiableinappetite]

No problem, just be on your way...

[And Kira watches this strange dog thing go, possibly out of his life like any good weird thing. He already thinks of just sinking back into bed and compiling a list of people to kill and...

...the dog is back. Kira's expression is that of absolute restraint.]

This is my house.

[monge]

[Before Komasan can apologize again and trap himself in a never ending cycle, he quickly takes a look at his file, then back at the house. This happens a few more times before he's certain, then turns to Kira.]

The paper says this is my house, too, zura.

[insatiableinappetite]

[No that's not true. He can't have a talking DOG living in his housing. He lightly tips a shoe at the paper.]

Let me see that paper.

[monge]

[Like a good boy, Komasan hands over the file without a single argument]

zura.

[He doesn't say or do much, if only to be polite.]

[insatiableinappetite]

[He takes the paper, grateful for little conflict there. Once he opens the file he reads to find that...yep. It's his housing.

It can't be right but paperwork doesn't lie. Not government paperwork. His face looks completely flabbergasted as he hands back the material to Komasan.]

That can't be right...you actually live here...

[monge]

[And he takes it back, sticking it into that giant bag he carries.]

Monge~! Does that mean we're roommates now, zura? This is so exciting, I didn't get to meet any of my roommates the first time I was here, zura~!

[Mostly because he ran to his room right away to sleep off this terrible nightmare.

And then he left.]

[insatiableinappetite]

[He realizes that this could be hell, that there's a good reason people avoid going to America in the first place.]

Yes...but before you go in and...get excited, let's establish some rules.

First, refrain from ever going into my room. Ever.

[monge]

[Before Kira even has time to realize, that tiny little dog has already bolted inside of the house. He didn't stick around to listen, sorry, instead he calls for him from inside.

Guess.

Guess where he is.]

MONGE!!

Is this your bed, zura?!

[insatiableinappetite]

[Kira's tension levels already go up. That's his room. That's where all his personal stuff goes. Like his organized nail clippings. You don't go in there.

Kira runs as quickly as he can up the stairs, Killer Queen appearing right behind him.

If he has to blow up something to create a distraction then fine]

Yes.

My bed. Not your bed. In no way your bed.

[monge]

[By time Kira finds him upstairs in that bedroom, he's bouncing on his bed like a hyperactive child. Interestingly enough, he stops when he sees Killer Queen, performing one last final jump off the bed and sticking the landing. All the gold medals.]

MONGE!!

I didn't realize there were other youkai that lived here, too, zura!!

[insatiableinappetite]

[...he can see it. He can see his stand. It's like some kind of loud, annoying stand sent to punish him!

Quick he has to play it cool. Kira freezes up like this was the first news hearing this.]

Youkai...? What are you talking about? Who's here?

[monge]

[Oh, so they haven't met yet. That's a shame, they've been living together this whole time apparently! Komasan will just have to introduce them. Toddling over, he walks right up to Killer Queen and points.]

Right here, zura! Say hello to my new friend, umm...

This Guy, zura!

[Sorry, he didn't catch his name.]

[insatiableinappetite]

[Kira turns to meet this total stranger that he has never met before. Yep this is the first time.]

Yes...hello...This Guy.

[He pats Killer Queen's head. Killer Queen simply stares while turning back to Komasan.]

You see? Turns out we already had a...youkai all along.

[Killer Queen, meanwhile, squats on his knees to better stare at Komasan.]

[monge]

[Oh man, This Guy is a real hoot. Komasan reaches back and digs into his bag, pulling out a candy bar. He offers it to Killer Queen as a token of friendship. Eat it, eat the candy.]

And now we have two youkai, zura~!

[And he sounds absolutely thrilled over this fact.]

Oh...b-but, I usually spend time with Miss Maya, I won't be here a whole lot, zura. Do...do you think you'll be okay here all by yourselves, zura?

[Does he have to make multiple trips to check up on you guys?]

[insatiableinappetite]

[Killer Queen takes it as his abs open up to reveal an empty space. The stand stashes it in there as the abs close. Yep. There goes the candy. Better than it blowing up in your face.

Of course...now Komasan knows about Killer Queen, that can't be taken too lightly.]

I think we can handle ourselves.

This Maya...she is your...ally? [User?] Maybe it's best if you don't tell anyone about This Guy...I've heard about their kind...they tend to explode when people gossip about them.

[Ha. Ha ha ha.]

[monge]

[Ah, so he eats with his abs. Komasan just watches, amazed.]

Monge... That must save a lot of chewing time, zura.

[Well, shouldn't stare, don't want to be rude, do we? Komasan turns his attention back to Kira and smiles.]

Ah, I understand, zura. A lot of people get mad when people gossip about them, zura.

[That's what he meant by "explode" right?]

[insatiableinappetite]

[Kira pretends to look just as amazed. He can't act like it's his weird...cat thing, right?]

Incredible, nothing like the stories I heard.

Besides, you know how odd it would sound, wouldn't it? A youkai living in our house.

[monge]

T-That's true, I don't know what I'd do if I found out a youkai was living here, zura.

[...Komasan, no.]

Could you imagine? It'd be sooooo scary, zura.

[insatiableinappetite]

[Goodness this poor thing would be almost to easy to kill.]

You don't want to scare our guests then, do we?
