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! ]

[Inaba doesn't seem like herself, finding a moment where shadows aren't an imminent threat, Taichi goes to speak to her.]

Hey, uh... Inaba, you feeling okay?

Homura

[knightlyrondo]

[Sayaka, with a newly acquired weapon, is slashing down any shadow in her path. It's not the same kind of sword that she used to kill the box witch but it's similar enough. It should be obvious that Sayaka didn't make it herself. No gold. No musical motif.

Sayaka's in the same building Homura is. She notices her chase the shadows upstairs. Common sense says to leave her be. However, when did Sayaka ever listen to that? She grips her katana tightly and follows. She manages to catch a shadow in the back as it chases the transfer student. As for the wings and the display she sees when she gets on the roof--]

Whoa--[That sound isn't something she manages to suppress in time. Instead she attacks another shadow on the roof before shouting a remark up to Homura.]

Stop showing off!

homura!

[ Trying to stalk someone, Homura? When all of this started Madoka at first thought of doing what she did last time - hiding out in a closet and hoping they wouldn't get her - but she can't do that this time. There's too many people she cares about and leaving them behind feels like the worst thing ever to her, so she's actually out and about, trying to avoid the shadows as well as she can and trying to find ways to help.

Except it doesn't work out as well as she had planned. At a certain point Madoka completely gets cornered by a few of the shadows and she realises it - the look on her face quickly becomes more and more panicked. ]

N.. no...

Haruhi; Text

Is hiding seriously a viable solution for this...?

Haruhi; 3/18

[Something's been bothering Accelerator for the last week or so. It began as a small niggling in the back of his head on occasion, something that only prodded and annoyed here and there. Now that the Programmer's lackey has stepped things up a notch, however, it returns to the forefront of his mind. He gives it a night to mull over, then sometime on the second day of the new shadow attacks he decides fuck it, and pulls out his phone, sending a quick text to Little Miss Conspiracy Theorist.]

how many people do you have the NPC narrowed down to?

Haruhi! 3-20

[observesthings]

i need to get out of here and get with the rest of the group

[ He's managed to keep himself out of trouble for now. He's been trying to get his Diary working, but... damn it, how the hell did Deus do it!? The only way he's avoided them so far was just from experience in the Survival Game. Now, he's holed up in a classroom, with just a set of plastic-tipped darts from the rec room. At least this classroom had a few windows from which to escape from. ]
