TEAM TARZAN LOG

TEAM TARZAN
READY: START

Team Tarzan roster: Anastasia, Ikuo Ryuuzaki, Jack Kelly, Kasen Ibaraki, Keigo Asano, Kurogane, Kurt Wagner, Silver, Yamatonokami Yasusada, Yaeger, Yosuke Hanamura, Yugi Mutou.



The city's been under siege for what feels like hours. It's only on August 3rd that you learn it's been a matter of days. Monsters begin pulling Retrospec users through portals left and right, large gaping holes in reality that spit you out in any given location around the city.

However, just as you think you're finally getting away, a large blue portal opens and you're snatched up. No amount of fighting and struggling will free you and soon the pressure is too great to ignore. Darkness fills your vision and the last thing you may remember is the sound of the monkeys howling...

BLUE PATH NO. 1: ANYA, TATSUO, YAMATO

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-04 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
[What happens when you put a 15 year old with a rifle and no survival skills in a forest.

She follows her favorite color, apparently. Once everyone's waking up and settled, Anya is walking forward toward the path that the blue orb sent her down. There's a rifle at her back along with some ammo on her person, but otherwise she doesn't seem to have much else to take care of her. Regardless, she's a little too fearless and curious to be daunted.

There's a glance behind her and - ]


Осторожный... We should be careful, yes?
okitactless: (sparring teacher)

[personal profile] okitactless 2017-08-04 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Luckily(?) she's also got a 21 year old former sword(???) following after her, so if they can't shoot their way out of a problem, he can stab their way out of it.

THIS WILL BE FINE.

Yamato's unusually subdued as they walk, holding his sword and staring absently at the path ahead. He blinks at her question and the sound of her voice seems to bring him back to the present, though there's still somewhat of a distant quality to his voice as he answers.]


Yes, we should. Make sure to watch where you're stepping, okay? It's easy for things to hide in the ground here.

[He's alert enough to keep watch, at least; it's just that as it turns out, remembering you weren't human is even more distracting than getting plopped into a jungle.]

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2017-08-04 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[And then there's Tatsuo. 30 year old CSI slash karate teacher. He's already taken off his jacket, because it is way too humid, so his revolvers are visible in their shoulder holsters. He's not drawn them though, because he knows he's low on ammo after using most of it on the monsters back in the city.]

And in the trees.
constellates: (★ door to my soul)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-04 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
[WHAT A RAGTAG TEAM - regardless Anya's still going to offer a smile. She's not dressed for this even a little bit. She's totally still in an idol costume - though admittedly one for pictures and not for stage, so slightly less Intense - and heels but she looks unbothered by either. Despite being a little worried, she's doing her best to adapt and gives them a smile.]

Да! Stay... mm, always looking?

["Aware" is what she wanted but oh well. For now, she's amazed - ]

All of this color... it is a lot to look at already.
thisloveisjustice: (clueless)

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2017-08-04 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Tatsuo smiles back, though it's a little strained. What the hell is going on? Where is everyone else? Are his friends okay? His head is buzzing with more questions than he cares to count, but focusing on the path is preferred to actually dwelling on said questions. Instead they just buzz about like annoying gnats; there, but ignorable if you're stubborn enough.]

I almost forgot what green looks like. And blue.

[He nods at the wispy blue light they're following.]

constellates: (★ probably your money is unpublic)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-04 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Mm! Цвета! The colors are some of what I miss the most. Horses too. Do you think we will see horses?

[There's just the slightest chance - the sliiiightest chance - that she might need to be a little bit more vigilant rather than excited. Still, she tries to be mindful of her companions as Anya is prone to watching others.]

If I take video here, it will show color back even in the city, yes?
thisloveisjustice: (clueless)

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2017-08-04 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Uh... I don't think horses are native to this type of environment.

[But Anya's suggestion to take a video makes him look at her directly.]

Actually. That is a really good idea. Not just because of the color thing, but just to see if we can bring back proof of where we are.

[Of course, that is assuming they even manage to find their way back to the city...]
constellates: (★ loverholic robotronic)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-04 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Pазделение? So we can share, yes?

[She understands that easily enough and like a true millennial, she totally has her phone on her all the time even when she was working just before this. Hence why she's gonna go ahead and bring it out - luckily with the service down her battery is pretty decent for the time being, so she'll take a short video of their trek.]

Привет, camera! It is Anya and Yasusada and Mr. Tatsuo today.

[gently narrates....

Though in the screen, she'll notice as they start climbing up the hill - a watch tower?]


Mm...? башня? Tower?
thisloveisjustice: (clueless)

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2017-08-04 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Tatsuo takes to watching Anya as she walks along, because if she's looking at her phone, she's probably not looking at her feet. So she sees the tower before he does.]

Tower? Oh, hey, there is! We should check that out. Might help us get a better view of the area.
constellates: (★ but tonight i need a damn explain)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-04 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
[At least that manages to alert Anya enough that she puts away her phone now - there's proof that blue and green exist and that's good enough for her. Then she'll turn to the others and nod.]

Да! It is time to go up.

[She's an agreeable girl at least - so TIME TO HEAD UP THIS SUDDEN TOWER and try not to worry about... humidity...]
okitactless: (stabby chic)

[personal profile] okitactless 2017-08-04 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Watch your step on the way up.

[Under different circumstances he might take more charge, maybe offer to stay on the ground and cut a path ahead for them or something. But for now he simply follows quietly, helping to keep them steady if need be.]

I didn't even know there was a jungle like this anywhere near us.
thisloveisjustice: (Default)

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2017-08-04 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[While Tatsuo is able to tolerate the humidity to a certain extent, the same cannot be said of his hair. The worse the humidity gets, the frizzier his hair gets, until it practically forms a soft dark brown cloud around his head.

Luckily, Tatsuo is quite unaware how ridiculous his hair looks now.
]

Unless this is somehow completely enclosed, I don't think we're anywhere near Recolle. The city is at the wrong latitude.
constellates: (Default)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-04 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ . . . he looks silly and Anya thinks it's wonderful so she won't say a gosh darn thing.]

Ah.... Погода... Um - it is too hot? It does not feel like Recollé - and I have always lived there.

[So that's her little mention as they head up to the top.]

Maybe because it is far... that is why there are colors? Hеисправность... Retrospec does not work here either.
okitactless: (thoughtful look)

[personal profile] okitactless 2017-08-04 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[He grew up there too, but... wishful thinking. Being close to home would mean being able to get home quickly.

Besides--]


Recollé doesn't follow the regular rules of the world anyway... if they can take away colors, I don't think they care about geography.

[But he isn't as naive as he seems, sometimes. Even if he's right, he's perfectly aware that most of this is just what he wants to be true, rather than what the facts are telling him.]

...we should make sure we find water soon, though. Food too, if we can.
constellates: (★ but tonight i need a damn explain)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-04 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Bоссоединяться... It is so that we will be able to share when we see others again, yes?

[Splitting off into two different paths makes her a little bit worried, admittedly. Still, the only way to go is up. As they head up to the watch tower and circle around it, she hums softly.]

Do you think we will see... Mm, незнакомцы? Other people?
thisloveisjustice: (clueless)

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2017-08-05 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Tatsuo has a really, really hard time letting go of the rules of the world. But if the explanation is they're all trapped in a virtual reality, he is going to lose his shit.]

Other people? You mean other than the twelve of us that dumped here? Or other people from Recolle who were on the app like us? Or someone from Retrospec... or someone else entirely?

[It would be really nice if they weren't the only people out here... but Tatsuo wouldn't exactly wish this on anyone else either.]
okitactless: (hmmmm)

[personal profile] okitactless 2017-08-05 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Normally, he'd probably agree that it's unlikely they'd come across anyone, but for this he hums thoughtfully.]

Someone had to have built this, right? Probably more than one person, and I'd guess more than one person used it... it doesn't seem like it but there could actually still be people around nearby.

[Except that this is Yamato talking and all that is far too logical, let's ruin it.]

Maybe we were thrown out here to help rediscover the lost natives of the city or something.
constellates: (Default)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-05 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Anya still seems to brighten up with Yamato speaks though, making an open-handed gesture in his direction.]

Да! Yasusada is saying what Anya is thinking. If this is here... then there must be someone to build it, yes?

[Though that mystery is gonna continue - up until they make it toward the top of the tower?! Wow, look at all this Stuff.]
okitactless: (heeeh)

[personal profile] okitactless 2017-08-05 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
And they had to build it for a reason. [Whatever that reason is, he probably doesn't want to know, but. He didn't want to be thrown into a jungle either, so apparently what he wants is not a part of the discussion.

Stuff, though, stuff!! For the first time since realizing Kashuu wasn't with them, Yamato perks up noticeably, scanning the supplies they've stumbled upon.]


Ah! This is great, the others will be glad too. [That fruit definitely looks fresh, which means it probably came from close by, right? He hopes?]
constellates: (★ i'm ready to bingo)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-05 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Anya smiles - if only because she likes the way that Yamato perks up.

Upon noticing the rest of their haul, she claps her hands together excitedly.]


Xорошо! Does Yasusada have a way to carry it? Or something we can make a bag...?

[Though there is also a radio that she's immediately going to look into?! Her fingers run across it - though she blinks as she notices the Retrospec logo.]

... Mm? Retrospec...?

[Don't mind her if she takes a quick pic of this too.]
okitactless: (yo)

[personal profile] okitactless 2017-08-05 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
We can use my jacket? It's better than nothing.

[Which he'd quite honestly forgotten about until now, seeing as he'd tied it around his hips during the convention, when he'd felt a bit too warm to wear it but too lazy to carry it around. They'll probably be able to fit the fruits in there, if nothing else, so he kneels down, setting the sword right beside his leg as he unties it and spreads it out.

He's focused on trying to tetris in as much stuff as he can, so he only spares a quick glance and a curious hum.]


Did you find something?
constellates: (★ hypertronic supersonic)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-05 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Let Anya know if you need more.... ткань? Um. Cloth!

[She's got enough in her idol costume that she doesn't mind tearing up - but for now she'll try to press the buttons on the radio. There's no actual response from her button pressing though.]

It is... radio! Ah, but it does not work?
okitactless: (oooh)

[personal profile] okitactless 2017-08-05 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, I will.

[He'd rather not waste anything, though; who knows what they're going to need to make bandages, after all. Morbid thinking, sure, but this is a guy who has gotten into fights pretty much his whole life... such thoughts are natural for him by now.

He does stop at that, though, pausing in his work to look over properly.]


A radio... I wonder if we could find spare batteries? [SOMEWHERE... maybe...?? A radio would be extremely useful, though, if they could get it working.]
constellates: (★ loverholic robotronic)

[personal profile] constellates 2017-08-05 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
Spare batteries...?

[Hm, she thinks about it - then trying to shift the radio around curiously.]

Should we bring it with us?
thisloveisjustice: (Default)

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2017-08-05 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I think so. The police radios still worked during the monster attack and with no cell reception out here, radio is our best bet.

[While the other two have been looking at the supplies, Tatsuo has been looking at the floor. Because those supplies didn't get there in their own. And by looking, I mean down on his hands and knees, nose just above the floor, head tilted slightly to the side.]

Someone was here. You can see how they've disturbed the dust. Large shoes, at least a size eleven. They could be wearing a size too large, but this would be an odd time and place for counter measures.
