WHAT: Dark allies event open catch-all post for my characters.
WHEN: During the Dark Allies event (03/17-03/21)
WHERE: Everywhere
WARNINGS: Cursing, violence. Also Rebellion spoilers for Homura.



Haruhi

[ Haruhi's nice enough to help out anyone she sees, but only because seeing people getting swallowed up by shadows isn't a good thing. It hurts that she can't save everyone, but she's one person. She's no army, she's just Haruhi Suzumiya, ex-brigade chief and current student body president of the afterlife high school.

Which is why she'll also send out a message via text message to everyone, regardless if she knows you or not.

The text message reads the following:

Stay safe. If you can arm yourself, do it. If you can't, then find me. Reply ASAP if you wish to find me, since I'm not going to stay in one place for long.

Also: If you're planning to hide, feel free to use the student council room as a temporary headquarters, though it is not highly recommended.

If you have any questions, be quick. Time is of the essence.

And good luck.

Any shadow that shows up within Haruhi's range, however is going to be shot; the brunette's currently using a regular police handgun that she made several months ago using atomic restructuring for any shadow that isn't within her reach.

She's paying close attention to her surroundings - perhaps too close - but it's not as if she won't lend a hand for anyone who needs it. But fair warning: she'll be protecting herself over other people when it comes down to it. ]

Homura

[ Homura's been paying attention to everything that's going on, but it's not as if she cares all that much. The only thing that matters is Madoka's safety, and she's going to be the one that procures it, not matter what. She's keeping tabs on Madoka by using her minions to off several of the shadows before some of them get sucked in themselves.

It's okay; it's not as if they're human to begin with, after all. Even though they're a part of Homura, they're just a portion of her essence, so it's not that huge of a problem.

She'll even chase them all the way upstairs to what seems to be a dead-end before jumping off the roof, black wings appearing on her back as she transforms into her magical girl state, taking out several guns from her shield as she shoots several of the shadows down to the ground; she won't allow them to touch her or the one she cares the most.

Basically, Homura will be running around and offing any shadow that comes her way - and possibly anybody else who dares stand in her way. She's not only using guns, but also her magical purple bow and arrow.

Of course, she doesn't have to care about wasting magic; she's no longer a magical girl after all.. ]

Himeko

[ Admist all the chaos, there's one Himeko Inaba who seems to be hanging out with several of the other NPCs with a happy look in her eyes, laughing while eating with others during lunch, and that is quite a weird sight. When shadows do show up, there is a sign of shock in her eyes, but it's nothing compared to what fear feels like to her.

Basically, she's happy now.

There's no need for her to fear anything anymore most of the time, especially since the shadows are now ignoring her. She can be found still attending classes like nobody else and acting quite... demure.

It's kind of creepy, honestly. Though if she does see someone she knows, she might as well chat them up! She can be helpful, after all! ]

E-eh... "Yaegashi-kun"?

[Something is definitely off. What happened to "Taichi"?]

[dereban]

Well, that is your name, isn't it? Yaegashi Taichi-kun.

[masturbatestoyou]

Well, yeah, but...

... You sure you're feeling okay Inaba?

[dereban]

Yeah, I'm fine. Why are you asking anyway?

[masturbatestoyou]

[The shadows were on the loose so... No way. He had to check.]

Does the name "Iori Nagase" mean anything to you?

[dereban]

[ She's silent for a few seconds, placing her hand under her chin for a second or two before giving a shrug with a nonchalant grin. ]

Sorry, I don't know her! Is she your friend? I'll help you look for her, if you'd really want me to.

[masturbatestoyou]

E-eh? Uh, no. It's fine. What about Yui Kiriyama or Yoshifumi Aoki?

[dereban]

[ Inaba simply shakes her head at this one. Even though Inaba would normally recognize the names, in the state she's in right now... well. ]

I don't know them either. Sorry, Yaegashi-kun.

[masturbatestoyou]

Right...

[Sigh... What should he do? He can't just leave her like this, could he? ... Then again, he can't undo whatever was done to her.]

[dereban]

Anyway, is that all you wanted to ask?

[masturbatestoyou]

W-well, uh... You seem different than normal?

[dereban]

Hm? How so..?

[masturbatestoyou]

You don't seem like yourself. You're...

[Cheerier? No, that's a terrible way to put it.]

[dereban]

Haha, what are you talking about, Yaegashi-kun? I'm always like this.

[ She laughs brightly, though there's something off about that laugh. ]

And "you're" what..?

[masturbatestoyou]

Ah, well...

...

... Never mind.

[dereban]

[ There's an awkward laugh from her as she smiles again, brightly, and wide. ]

You're so silly, Yaegashi-kun!

[masturbatestoyou]

Right.

[Taichi just looks away, it's... unnatural seeing Inaba like this.]

[dereban]

Right, right. Sorry about this, but I'm going to go now, okay? My friends and I are going to talk about the latest school gossip. But if you need anything, just ask, okay?

[masturbatestoyou]

A-ah, right. Of course...
