I can Fly Higher than an Eagle

[alitaba]

WHO: Futaba and you!
WHERE: around the city (open spaces, the park most likely)
WHEN: over the month
WHAT: It's a bird! it's a plane! no, that's just futaba
WARNINGS: nothing in particular

So the dome is alarming.

Futaba’s 90% sure she’s seen this show before it honestly, it never ends well. Over the course of the first few weeks of January there's occasionally a bright source of light floating its way from one side of the dome to the other. There seems to be no real rhyme or rhythm to it other than it’s just There.

Route A.
For those with various method of flight powers, Futaba seems to not mind being joined by whomever decides to come investigate. Do you come say hi first or hang out long enough for her to figure out how to say TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER ?

Route B.
For those without but still want to investigate, she’s gotta land sometime, right? Eventually, the ship will sink low to reachable heights for all your shouting needs. Who knows, maybe she’ll answer back.

Route C.
Or, you’re just too late to find the ship but you sure do find the girl splayed out on the floor. Who knew summoning a persona for more than a few minutes would take so much out of you? Poking her with something might net you a response.


WILDCARD
or you can just Go For It and gape at the UFO in the sky. the world is your oyster.

Route B

[digthefuzz]

[Kurt had been cautiously navigating the darkened streets with a flashlight when suddenly a bright light descends from the sky!

His jaw practically drops as he beholds it. There's no mistaking it... on top of all of the other impossible stuff, a legit UFO.]

N-no way man! [He shouts out.] Aliens?! For real?? Are they the real masterminds behind all this?

[alitaba]

[ If the past year has been anything to go by, Recolle is the definition of the impossible is possible. Like this, for example, the UFO seems to have acknowledged Kurt's outburst and

oh dear, it seems to be coming closer. ]

[digthefuzz]

[oh god is this how he dies

Kurt raises his arms in surrender and takes some stumbling steps back as the spaceship draws closer.]

Hey... um... I come in peace!

[alitaba]

[ Fear not Kurt, it seems to pause a good number of feet away, though it's definitely got you in its sights ]

Kurt Wagner.

[ uh oh it knows your name though ]

What will you offer?

[digthefuzz]

[It knows his name. Kurt gives a startled gasp.]

Um- um- comic books? Trading cards? Um... what do you want? O... alien-y ones?

[alitaba]

A week supply of tonkotsu ramen! And ramune.

[ wait. that voice sounda a little more .......... familiar? ]

Ooh maybe an entire turkey too.

[ it's possible she's just hungry at this point ]

[digthefuzz]

[He blinks as he takes in those requests. If it weren't for the first two requests, he'd wonder if the aliens were taking up strange new probing targets.]

Wh-what, do you want a full-course meal while you're at it?! [But something else sounds off... and Kurt narrows his eyes.] Wait, are you just a person??

route a

[maskreant]

[ So... as curious and busy as Akira wants to be, he decides to investigate the shiny thing in the sky—a UFO? Looking thing? He feels like it looks kind of familiar, but can't pinpoint it.

He'll just stay seated on Kohryu, looking at the spacecraft with a blank expression. Can he... Touch it? ]

[alitaba]

[ It's shiny. Go for it. Maybe she'll actually look up from whatever research hole she's currently in ]

[maskreant]

[ Akira cannot ever say no to touching the shiny... Let alone stealing the shiny. Of course he can't stow this away, but he does reach out to touch the smooth surface.

Stroke, stroke, pat, pat. Does anything happen? ]

[alitaba]

[ Well it certainly sets off about five different klaxon alerts. GOOD THING YOU CAN'T HEAR THE YELP but if she could, she would have totally fallen off her metaphorical chair. Just because the others never see it coming...!! ]

Alibaba's Alien Abductions, how may I help you?

[ no one said she couldn't have a bit of fun in the meantime ]

[maskreant]

[ Alibaba? Why does that sound... Familiar? But he can't seem to remember anything right now. He's sure, however, this is a Persona. Whose? Not sure. However, he can make his guesses by the nature of the Persona and how she responded. ]

Not sure... What are your services? Do you only abduct people?

[ Wondering. ]

[alitaba]

[ the giggling probably gives her away, honestly ]

Any and all aiding and abetting for your kidnapping needs!

[ not that... she's tried to before..... ]

[maskreant]

[ Fu! Ta!! Ba!!! He smiles a bit now that it's confirmed it's her. ]

... Do you think you can kidnap Goro Akechi on Valentine's day?

[ He has a Plan now. There are funnier plans, but this comes first. ]

[alitaba]

[ She can't fool him for long. She likes the affection too much. ]

.......Sure! For good or for a plan?

[ It's debatable if she can do that or not without questionable tentacles everywhere but they have time to find that out later.]

[maskreant]

[ Yes, even her Persona gets pets. That's like her getting pets, isn't it? Anyway, he retracts his hand to fiddle with his bangs, a little sheepish, but HE TRIES TO THROW THAT WAY. ]

For a plan. Maybe I'll run it by you for some opinion...

[ running a valentines day plan by futaba sounds like a horribel way to die ]

HOW DID I MISS THIS route B > C

[fabrefactions]

[ cue pause while I immediately put a regain in for this. But the... UFO is familiar. He's seen it before, down in the subways -- Futaba had summoned it, hadn't she? The shape was... too unique, too ... well. There's no way he could have missed is, or missed where he'd seen it before? ]

Futaba--?

[ HANG ON, AFTER THAT UFO. ]

it was too fast for eyes

[alitaba]

[ YOU'RE WELCOME. Anyways, so guess who's learning the hard way one does not keep her persona she's still getting the hang of out for long periods of time. It sure is drunkenly weaving its way to solid ground. Maybe she'll even land completely before she dismisses it...! ]

except he saw this comin'

[fabrefactions]

[ Oh. Oh, down she go.

Hang on he's just going to start at a jog-run, weaving like a drunk as well to keep in line with where the UFO seems to be aiming to... land? Maybe? Please don't crash. ]

[alitaba]

[ There might be a tree on her way to solid ground. Can't.... swerve.... around....!

Welp. I hope your catching skills are up to par because she sure is falling fast. ]

[fabrefactions]

[ This is his life now. These are the people he's chosen to spend time with in both this world and the other world.

Welp.

He's gonna make a break for where Futaba just made friends with that tree and do an amazing skid to catch...! The girl...!! ]

route c

[commandertoolbelt]

[ So you know what’s really startling?

Finding your girlfriend flat on the ground, more or less dead to the world. As soon as Leo realizes it’s her, he’s running to her side with a wordless cry of alarm and kneeling beside her. ]

Fu… Futaba...? Aaaaare you okay?

[ He touches her shoulder to give her a little nudge. Should he call 911…? ]

[alitaba]

Uuuuuugh. [ She lives...! ]

Who got the number of that speeder......?

[ It seems she just ran out of power if that sad little flop is to go by. Nothing that a Big Bang Burger combo and a week of sleep won't fix. ]

[commandertoolbelt]

[ Ah, yes. This is where he’s placed his affections. At least Leo can relax now that he knows she’s more or less okay. ]

Guess you’re still too low-leveled to take on a speeder. I hate to say it, but it looks like you’ve got more grinding to do.

[alitaba]

[ No one said he made good life choices ]

Nnngh, more like a star destroyer. [ And attempts to sit up. Attempting to being the key word here because she lists straight to the side while doing so. ] Whoa-!

[commandertoolbelt]

[ Good thing Leo's reflexes are quick enough to catch her! So he's just going to hold her in his arms until she can actually get up I guess?? ]

What are you doing taking on a star destroyer? You need to be at least level 30 to beat those, and we haven't even finished designing our ship for that.

[ because that's obviously one of their ongoing projects right ]

Wildcard

[explodosafe]

((ooc: Hey I know I'm late but I hope this is still alright? Feel free to ignore if you're not feeling it anymore!))

[Did you ever just look to the side while walking over a pedestrian bridge just to come face to face with a grinning devil? Kirishima's eyes turn wide as he stares slaw-jacket at the small figure as it just raises and turns out to be something like the mercedes star...


....of a freaking ufo....


........ ]

FHKDHFKJDF -?!?! WHAT THE HELL?!

[His gut instincts demand fight or flight so Kirishima does the first thing he can think of: hardening his fists into rock-hard blades he rushes the ufo to give it a hearty swing, almost falling over and off the bridge in the process.]
