[WORLD TWO | SHIT MEETS FAN]
Who: The Chosen 12, Shehui Monitors
Where: Around Shehui, The Underground Holding Areas
When:
Open/Closed: OTA, but especially the Chosen 12
[ Something seems different about today...you feel it when you wake up if you're of the sorts who happen to have a good gut instinct. You don't have to wait around long for the news of the day to confirm this anxiety in your chest. In fact, it may only intensify if you happen to be looking at your ID card when the announcement comes in.
On your ID's text scroller, a message comes through with a loud, blaring beeping:
The following Shehui residents have been requested for an audience with officials. If you know of their location, please tell them as such and maintain their location as much as possible. (The list, though, contains last names OR the name they offered at their Shehui introductory meeting.)
If you're in your apartment and happen to be on that list, you'll find that your door is locked from the inside suddenly. You and your buddies aren't going in there until a monitor comes by. For those out and about, you may be able to hide for a while if you're in a crowd of folks who don't know who you are. However, any and all news or screens will begin offering photos of those on the list as the day continues. That might get you some interesting looks.
That being said, you have options -- giving in and surrendering is only one of the choices you can make.
In general, citizens of Shehui will take a pretty standard approach to coven members who are on the circulated list. They won't get directly involved with the chase; there won't be many citizens who will put a coven member in a headlock and directly involve themselves. However, they will shout, point at and follow coven members who they know are on the list in an attempt to help the monitors. However, you do have the freedom to create non-standard reactions from Shehui residents. You can say they feel some sympathy, or maybe they're even more violent than the average person!

If you're in your apartment and happen to be on that list, you'll find that your door is locked from the inside suddenly. You and your buddies aren't going in there until a monitor comes by. For those out and about, you may be able to hide for a while if you're in a crowd of folks who don't know who you are. However, any and all news or screens will begin offering photos of those on the list as the day continues. That might get you some interesting looks.
That being said, you have options -- giving in and surrendering is only one of the choices you can make.
pre- or just after the announcement: Want to react to this sudden discovery that you're quite possibly a wanted criminal? Go right ahead! Maybe this is where you begin to plot your life on the lam. Maybe, maybe you have a mental break down. Maybe, maybe, maybe you just need some advice about what to do. Who knows!
running: Life on the lam is entirely possible, and even though it might not last, you can definitely make a break for it. If you have magic that can help you...why not use it? What do you have to lose? However, know that monitors will be looking for you far and wide. You thought there were a lot of monitors hanging around the city before? Think again, now. There are some pretty good places to hide, like in the woods of the more rural areas, but be warned -- that doesn't mean the monitors won't come for you there, either.
fighting: Maybe you're more proactive in your denial. You don't want to go anywhere with these monitors, and they're closing in...instead of surrendering, it's time to battle! Magic will do you well in this scenario, but monitors do have weapons and tools they can use to try and combat your fighting spirit. These include stun guns, energized-batons and a gun-like device that shoots out magnetized clamps designed to grab at arms, legs...even your neck. Trying to cut through these is also very hard, and once the gun is attached to you? It's also electrical in nature. You'll get a pretty good zap if you don't comply.
capture: So that's it. You've been caught. What does that mean for your future in Shehui? It's hard to say -- but it is for certain that you aren't simply being interrogated in your apartment this time. The monitors lead you to their underground doorway, opening it and bringing you inside. What you find is a totally different building that looks very ornate yet official -- this is the home of the Shehui government. The hallway you're led through is long, and your restraints tighten before your feet are clasped together with a device that's similar to the clamps the monitor's gun spat out. There are hundreds of monitors looking to stun or even shoot you now that you're away from the public. Escape is seemingly impossible...at least for now.
From there, monitors will take you to a holding room that lies at the furthest end of the last hallway you're taken to. It's not that bad for being what is essentially a jail cell -- there's an enclosed restroom, sizable bed and mini fridge. A table, a television built into the side of the wall...and a sign on the wall that lists up to three different names. Even though there's one bed, that doesn't mean you'll be utilizing it on your own:
-- Geir (his own, larger cell -- though it's outfitted with larger amenities)
-- Riza, Jade, Ruby
-- Jusis, Noctis, Julius
-- Madoka, Shirley, Haru
-- Orga, Akechi
The first day, everything is quite quiet. A monitor brings you food, carefully making sure that you can't escape through the door...since they're sliding it through a tiny slit, it might be very hard to squeeze through. That's where you're at right now...Today is day one, and who knows what the next day will bring.
[SPECIFIC NOTE: For large creatures, i.e. Geir's big dragon ass, the monitors are going to be using helicopters and larger versions of their regular weapons. They'll be very cautious in trying not to injure Geir -- more than they would be when it comes to the average coven member -- because potentially felling him from the sky can lead to casualties. If he is captured, the underground door will grow to accommodate him, and there is a larger holding area for bigger creatures. Hallways, however, will be a tight squeeze.]
telepathy: Telepathy can be utilized at any time during your long, hard day, but it may be beneficial to attempt to use it while you're locked up underground. Those who hear your mental feed will find that whatever signal you're trying to send is very faint -- for instance, sending text, the letters will be less than opaque. Voices will be softer and potentially static-y, as well as video transmissions.
In general, citizens of Shehui will take a pretty standard approach to coven members who are on the circulated list. They won't get directly involved with the chase; there won't be many citizens who will put a coven member in a headlock and directly involve themselves. However, they will shout, point at and follow coven members who they know are on the list in an attempt to help the monitors. However, you do have the freedom to create non-standard reactions from Shehui residents. You can say they feel some sympathy, or maybe they're even more violent than the average person!
no subject
[ she's out running errands with dia when she gets the announcement, and both the sisters go pale as they drop their shopping baskets and run. neither of them are sure where they're running exactly, but out of somewhere public probably seems best... until they exit the building and monitors catch sight of ruby. it's at this time that she discovers the full extent of her power - when dia urges her to use her magic to turn invisible and run by herself, her grip on her sister's hand makes both of them disappear. it's an opening, and both of them take it as a desperate sign of hope.
unfortunately, that part of her magic comes with a price. it isn't long before ruby starts losing her stamina - she can't bring herself to run anymore, and her invisibility begins to flicker. unfortunately that's enough for the monitors to properly find them, and it isn't a pretty sight. they're in the middle of a busy street when the capture happens, with dia being restrained as ruby screams and cries for her sister as hard as she can. it makes quite a noticeable scene, but you know what they say about the bystander effect... the shehui residents sure don't seem to care, anyway. ]
capture (or: gay baby jail)
[ she's far too traumatized to even lift herself onto the bed - the best that she can do is sit upright against a wall and hug her knees as she trembles in fear. the way ruby moves is often compared to a small animal, but that idea holds much more weight now - with the way she's curled up onto herself without a word, the idea of a terrified small animal is easily invoked. talking to her might yield some sort of response, but it might not be a good one. ]
telepathy
Everyone... I'm sorry...
[ it's the only thing she can manage to gather her thoughts coherently enough to say, though it's not without the strain of tears. if she wasn't convinced by now that all of this misfortune was her fault, she's sure of it now - this is punishment, for both her and those around her. ]
no subject
no subject
[ as horrible as this treatment has been, it really hasn't occured to ruby that she didn't deserve it. she's from a strict, traditional family - she knows very well that there can be consequences for her thoughtless actions. she had thought that using magic was just that. ]
no subject
[that's partly the influence certain people have had on her talking. but then again, when Madoka has disliked a rule in the past, she's just gone ahead and rewritten entire universes to better suit her tastes.]
no subject
[ to think that an entire society could be wrong... it seems unthinkable, but madoka might have a point. ]
I... I think you're a good person, too! [ even if she's a rule-breaker, just like ruby. ] I don't want you to be in trouble.

gay baby jail
with a soft voice, she slides over to ruby. it's not close, really, mostly because if ruby's anything like jade, she's watching her surroundings tightly. ] Hey.
[ ...and that's all she's got planned, so jade starts talking. ] What's your name? I'm Jade. We're the same age, right? It's hard to tell, but you do not look any younger or older than me, heh...
THE TIME HAS COME
she looks at her like a deer caught in headlights, trying her best to steady her breathing and wipe away the tears pricking at the edges of her eyes. ]
Um... It's Ruby... [ she sniffles. ] I'm fifteen.
[ with her babyish voice, that might be a little hard to believe... but it's true! ]
no subject
I am seventeen. I just turned seventeen, actually. It was fun! I had never had a birthday around other people before. [ hm. this is a weird distraction, right? jade doesn't know what else to do, though. ] Don't worry. I am pretty confident my grandpason will be here sooner than we expect. And if not, I bet we can figure something ourselves.
no subject
[ she's hesitant as she says it, because even the thought of dia triggers the lump in her throat that she's trying to swallow down. she's terrified to be most places without her, but especially now when they've been forcefully separated. ]
But what can we do here?
(no subject)

telepathy
Did something happen?
no subject
We're here because I used my magic in front of that man... I got everyone in trouble...
no subject
Do you truly believe that? If this were your fault, why would the rest of us, and only us, be here?
[ in most situations, the words would have an underlying mocking edge. in this one, it still doesn't sound like a completely genuine line of questioning, but he's trying to keep his tone somewhat gentle. ]
no subject
[ she broke a shehui law - she's convinced that she is Public Enemy Number One. he does have a point, though... maybe it would make sense if her friends were punished as well, but she doesn't know the person she's talking to at all. ]
Did you break the rules, too...?

telepathy;
...Please, don't cry. Things...will be all right.
[ ...She hopes. ]
There are people, right now, trying to help you all.
no subject
Really? Are we going to be rescued?
no subject
[ She'll bust down any walls she has to!! It wouldn't be the first time!! But first things first, since Ruby seems to be calming down a little more, Aigis decides to try to help her ease into a more productive mood. ]
So let's focus on what we can do, and not what we can't. [ And they can't change the past. ] Can you tell me your name and describe your physical appearance?
[ Giving her something she can focus on and succeed, not something she can't. ]
no subject
[ she repeats the words to herself, almost like a mantra. she can definitely do what this person is asking her - it seems like the only thing while everyone else is planning out escape options. ]
it's ruby. ruby kurosawa. [ faintly, her text takes a magenta tinge. ] um... i have red hair and green eyes. and... i'm pretty small...?
(no subject)
(no subject)
telepathy;
So Haru will respond, probably a lot gentler than most people Ruby may have heard from so far.]
None of us did anything wrong, I promise. Please don't take all of the blame on yourself.
no subject
B-But... If we didn't do anything wrong, why did we get taken?
no subject
Because they simply don't understand. Even if we are magic users... we haven't harmed anyone. You would never cause an explosion or hurt someone on purpose, right?
no subject
[ not on purpose, anyway. thankfully her magic is much more passive than it could be, so she isn't in any immediate danger of harming others. ]
None of the people here like magic... they won't even listen... [ the more she thinks about it, the more frustrated she becomes. ] Do you think Qri-san knew that when she brought us here?

Ruby?
[ please stop crying please stop crying please stop crying ]
The only people who should apologize are the individuals who took you in the first place. Everything is going to be fine. Keep calm. [ that being said!!!! ] Find Riza Hawkeye, if she's nearby. She'll keep you safe until we can get you out of there. Until then, talk to me. Are you hurt?
no subject
[ she wibbles and sniffles, but Does Not Stop Crying. sorry man, this one's out of your hands... but she does perk up a little at what he says. ]
I'm- [ hic. ] I'm okay. And Riza-san is here with me... We're in a room together.
no subject
You're the safest person in that cell, then. Do as she says and you'll be fine.
We're going to get you out of there, but it may take a little longer than we'd like. There's a lot to do in a short amount of time. [ which is a delicate way of saying "who the fuck knows what's going on anymore" ] But we will get you out of there. Who else is in the cell with you, besides Riza?
[ using titles with the kid is only going to confuse her, sorry, hawkeye. ]
no subject
[ it makes her feel better knowing that other people trust riza, but she was likely going to do that anyway. jade seems nice, but riza is a soldier and someone that she knows. ]
Another girl. Her name is Jade - she's a little older than me. [ she's seventeen... like dia. ] Um... Is my sister with you?
