The newly accepted Muse State Military Personnel are beginning to arrive in the inner city, ready to be granted their new accommodation and be formally inducted into their Squads. The trains arrive in the morning, but the induction isn't until the next day, so the arrivals have time to explore and meet others like them who have chosen to join up. Many decide to follow an old Muse City Tradition and visit the Central Gardens, filled with shallow pools, grassy parks and plenty of trees and small rivers.
Participants may enter this short RP at any time, and they'll enter whichever area the RP is up to! The RP starts out in the streets outside of the Central Train Station, and then when the first participants are ready, they take a short tram ride to the Central Gardens, to have some fun in the water and enjoy the park. Many participants will meet old friends, and find out that they too have applied to join the Muse State Military. The RP had now advanced away from the Central Train Station and is now in the Central Gardens. Please don't post saying that you're at the Central Train Station. If you want to join, simply arrive at the Central Gardens with the other participants!
Participants should think about these questions, as the topics may come up in this RP: ▪ Have you come from outside of the State of Muse? From another state perhaps? Or have you lived in Muse all your life? ▪ Have you lived alone, or with friends or family, up to this point? ▪ Do you have any places in Muse you love going to? A Japanese Restaurant? The War Games Simulation Centre (where players play airsoft-like rounds of deathmatches and such)? ▪ Do you know of any friends, old or recent, who are joining the Muse State Military too? You might meet them again and be able to catch up while you're here. ▪ How old are you? What do you look like? Is there anything you always bring with you wherever you go? Trinkets, a Laptop perhaps?
When you're ready, post away and Roleplay your entrance into the area that the RP is up to, and meet up with others and start mingling!
Fun fact: This Mingle-RP is set up in a similar style to how Missions will be set up, with Attached Text and Images, movement from area to area, and so on.
CURRENT AREA | Central Gardens - Riverpond Sidefields Safe Area. No post requirement to traverse. Just meet up with others and decide when you'd like to move onto the next area. Post the attached text when you and the others want to move to the next area. There is one more area after the Central Gardens in this RP! Attached Text:

Previous Areas Central Train Station - Front Several new Members of the Muse State Military arrived at the Central Train Station, deposited their belongings into the Military Drop-off Box, and introduced themselves to eachother, then agreed to head out to the Central Gardens to spend some of the day mingling and having lunch.
xxxxThe Central Gardens were situated far enough from the traffic and commuters of the city for it to have some peace and quiet, albeit that it was still a popular venue nonetheless. It sat nestled xxxxin the centre of a large square of parkland on the Western side of what could be called the middle of the city. Natural streams and a couple of rivers had been remade and improved by xxxxhuman hands to form a long stretch of shallow ponds, each with several tiny waterfalls feeding them, where visitors could enjoy the water while eating and socialising. The water itself was xxxxfairly pure, and kept that way through natural means, but the park asked visitors to consider their peers when deciding to eat in or near the water, and to avoid dirtying the waters if they could xxxxhelp it. The waters weren't shared between each pond, as each set of streams separated and filtered through countless rockfaces, and most contaminants would be removed by this natural xxxxfiltration, but being that it was a public area, some etiquette was required. Visitors could wash their feet in the waters and no lingering dirt or smell would remain behind. The filtrative rocks xxxxdid their job well, and were cleaned regularly to keep the water and the scenery pristine. Best of all, it was free, and all paid for by the government. It was an enjoyable place to relax and xxxxhave picnics, and sit ankle-deep in cool water under the sun.
xxxxSome of the newest recruits for the Muse State Military, ready for tomorrow's induction, had decided to come to the Central Gardens so they could sit and have such a picnic, and they'd xxxxarrived, left the Tram, and entered the Gardens. They were greeted with the scenery around them with the warm orange glow of the morning having well and truly left the sky, and the cool xxxxair had begun to warm up as the sun began to rise up over their heads. A few small CommServer stands were spread out around the Gardens, showing a small strip of news updates and xxxxthe current time and temperature. The time read as 10:25am, and taking into account that the Tram ride was 14 minutes and the group had to navigate their way up to the Central xxxxGardens Entry and through to the Riverpond Sidefields, they were making good time. Good conversation was sure to follow.
Freya had barely managed to get on the new tram as she followed Siel and the others before it took off. When they arrived she exited with the others and arrived at the gardens with them. Looking around, she couldn't help but smile. As a small girl she would often enjoy coming to the park to get away from everything else in the world. Walking a bit ahead of everyone, she looks around and notices that not much has really changed within the gardens.
The scenery, plants, flowers; everything was still the same as when she had left. Hmmm, where is a good spot to sit down for a chat she thinks as she stops and looks around for more. Eventually her mind goes off into its own little world and she wanders farther from the group. Entering a large clearing, she stops and just sits down. Closing her eyes, she remains that way for a moment before stretching out and laying down on the grass. "It's so nice out today!" she says with a smile on her face. Raising her right hand up, she holds it above her face before resting her arm across her eyes to block the light that her eyelids would let in when she closes her eyes.
Throlyn stepped off the tram, the scent of everythnig in the area came to him at once, and he quickly ducked behind a bush, as his ears popped out from their hidding place upon his head. As his light teal hair produced wolf ears, the same color as the hair, he sat up and looked around. Didn't know a rush of aromas could cause my hearing to activate. Well, I should be good for now. Not ready for them to see my demon attributes, not yet at least. He thought to himself, as he quietly exited his area of cover, his ears back among his hair. Fang joined his side, and the two walked over to a ledge by the water in the area, and they sat down. He looked out to the others that had stepped out and awaited to see what goes on next.

Isabella Kiyoshi Private "I'm not a psychopath"
Isabella looked outside the window as the tram slowed to a stop. She got up and off the transport, briefly pausing as she saw the gardens. She followed the group as she looked around, noticing the smell of the flowers as she thought wonder where some of these plants came from She blinked as she saw the teal haired man run behind the bush before going over to sit next to the water, shrugging it off as she saw one of the new recruits go off to lie down in the grass. She sighed as she loosened the scarf she was wearing, allowing her to keep cool in the warm environment as she glanced over the others to see if they had an actual plan.

Shura had mostly ignored everyone on the tram ride to the gardens since they seemed to ignore her. Though when they all got off the tram she noticed that everyone seemed to stay grouped together except for the few outcasts who kept to themselves like herself. 'Well at least i'm not the only outcast.. I just can't wait to get training..' She thought to herself as she branched off away from the group easily and made her way through the gardens entry alone. She walked on through the Riverpond Sidefields till she came to a pool she could sit at alone. She proceeded to take her shoes and socks off then rolled her pants up and placed her feet in the water. "Ahhhh.. So nice and cold.." Shura muttered to herself happily as she turned the volume up on her music and just relaxed for a bit.

Previously, Nate obviously got on the tram and rode the way with Chitori towards their next destination. During the ride, Nate just looked out the window and watched as the scenery passed by. He didn't even speak a word to Chitori or made an attempt to sleep which is unusual in itself. With the tram stopping, the doors slid open for which Nate would get up and walk off.Upon exit, he would look outside in the new scene feeling the heat beaming down along with the abundance of flowers. He wasn't going to take off his scarf and the flowers looked okay to him. He had no true thoughts on them. Especially since they were all recruits. Maybe he was starting to block off the outside world without even going to training yet. Still, it was tough to say. He didn't know where to go or whether or not he should stay and wait on Chitori to get off. Maybe she was already off. Looking around, where was the food? Yes, that was his thought now.
Siel stepped off the tram, with the scarf around his neck just barely covering his mouth and nose for warmth, though the day had begun to get a little warmer. The mornings were normally brutally cold, but that quickly changed once the sun had lifted up into the sky for a few hours. Even the nights were warmer than the cold, sometimes windy mornings. Siel lowered the scarf, taking in the air.
Walking along with a few others into the gardens, Siel spotted Freya, Throlyn and Shura walking ahead, and the others were likely behind him or obscured by some of the other people who had entered the gardens. Freya had walked far ahead, but Siel quickly recognised her walking pattern, and her choice of clothing color helped him identify her easier as well. She was likely only just out of earshot, so calling out to her may not yield any results. Throlyn and Shura seemed to be pretty close to eachother, near the same string of ponds fairly close to the entry, so Siel played by numbers and decided to join them, which would likely show the others that that was where the unofficial group would congregate.
Sitting down a respectable distance from Shura, but close enough for conversation, Siel waved at Throlyn who had taken up a position on a rock ledge overseeing the side of the shallow pond, and turned to Shura.
"How are you feeling? Ready for anything tomorrow?"
Yes, it was an icebreaker, but a friendly one, without much pressure.

Throlyn Wolfheart
Throlyn Spotted the one in purple and black wave at him, as the male joined with the girl across the way by some distance from him. Well, it appears he might try to conduct me into the group, Fang. However, I'm not really interested in being like everyone else, the gods know I'm not. Oh well, I guess I could try. Throlyn said to his wolf, as well as thought it in his head. Fang gave her companion a nod and laid down beside him, as Throlyn looked out into the water. Due to his wolf like hearing, thanks to his Wolf Demon father, Throlyn was able to hear what the man wearing the scarf said, but didn't answer, so to keep him off his tail. Ready for tomorrow you ask? My first fight was with a shop keeper I had stolen from, back when I had no place to live, over a loaf of bread. Good thing I was fast enough to get out with minor cuts and bruises. That states that I'm ready for anything. The Half-demon thought to himself, and only Fang was able to hear, due to their telekinetic connection. So, Throlyn and Fang stayed where they were located, and stared out into the water.
"*huff* *huff* That was a close one."Barely holding on to the handle bars on the last part of the train, Toshiki made his way down from the train, going to the middle of the garden. He had made a quick glance at his new surrounding and surveyed the area for the most part. Acknowledging the safety of the place, he took giant huff, then later whiffed the air in the garden.
"This smells just like the garden in the mansion"
The serenity of nature had eased the former stress of almost dying from losing grip, Toshiki then proceeded to go the river to wash up all of the smog that had accumulated from his face to his boots. Rolling up his sleeves and pants, he made his way to a secluded area in the river and washed off most of the smoke the had blown through him awhile back. Contemplating on what do next, he had laid down on the damp grass and decided to take a nap while drying himself off by exposing himself to the sun's rays.

OOC: Enshy, J3T, Isabella and Manpish, you gonna post? o.e
Not sure where exactly the food was, he would start to walk into the gardens to try find something he could pick to eat. He wasn't sure where Chitori was. All he knew, she was probably still on the tram. He didn't know exactly what he should do. However, looking at the Kiyoshi chick. He figured he needed make nice with these people. Plus, she had a scarf. Really the only reason to approach. He wondered what exactly was they all doing here. And there was no food. "So, you don't like take your scarf off either?" Nate wondered. Real smooth nate. Smooth like sand paper.

Worry glances can be seen from Chitori each time she checked on Nate. He usually sleeps whenever they travel somewhere unless it included walking. Even then, he would be half asleep during the walks. Which drove Chitori up the wall some days. She wanted to ask, but left him in peace instead when he watched the scenery go by. Soon, the train stopped as the door opened and Nate seemed off. Distant. This was starting to worry her, her fingers went up to his shirt as she gently tugged him to bring him back to Earth, once he looks at her, she would give him a warm smile and a tilt of the head which said for him to follow her. He followed but got distracted once again by talking to a female who was wearing a scarf. Chitori instead, followed the orange haired woman as she sat down on the large clearing as well, started to get the food out of the bag. "I brought your favorite Nate." She called out towards the brown haired male. Sure enough, the short haired female whipped out Nate's favorite sandwiches and snacks in a bag. She placed them by her side so Nate can sit down by her and eat when he was ready.
She opened hers her food as she glanced towards Freya with warm orange red eyes. She wasn't too far from the stranger, only about half a yard away, enough to give space but was still in the comfort zone to talk freely. "Nervous?" She questioned towards the female. It was odd. Chitori wasn't nervous. She felt calm. Almost like calm before the storm. After all, everyone in her family was involved with the military of some sorts, it wasn't too surprising that Chitori joined not just to follow Nate to make sure she always uphold her promise of having his back, but it was in her blood so to speak. She got out a bag of grapes as she gestured it towards Freya, asked the female if she wanted some by using body language.

Shura Barely caught the question Siel had asked her and instinctively turned her music down, but kept her headphones on "I'm ready to kick some a** if that's what you mean. How about yourself?" Shura told/asked the boy as she closed her eyes and just let her feet soak in the nice cold water. She figured she would need to relax now before things got serious and training/missions started. Shura personally wanted to get stronger for her own reasons, but she didn't think making friends was a bad thing. "Also, why talk to me? I'm not like the others, or at least I don't think i am." Shura asked him curious on his answer of choosing to talk to her of all the people here. Especially since the unofficial group seemed to follow his lead, which meant they might come over here as well.
