WHO: You!
WHERE: Around the city!
TIME: All Through Day 1
DESCRIPTION: CITY TOUR MINGLE!

Maybe you stayed in Coba, maybe you went home and came back, or maybe this is your first time here, but everyone is suddenly greeted to a friendly, female voice over an intercom (or maybe it's a some other device? Depending on where you're from)

"Welcome citizens. We hope you're enjoying your visit! Transport will leave in twenty minutes for the Coba city-wide tour!"

If you follow the voice, you'll find yourself at a bus stop. Or is it a fancy monorail? A carriage? A couple of horses? Coba is flexible and will change herself to suit you, after all. And if you get left behind, don't worry! There's free cabs anywhere in the city, who also will be more than happy to give you their own version of the tour.

The Coba city-wide tour boasts an hour of informative information regarding Coba's most important locations, some extra brochures (with some extra savings in there, of course), and will finally return you to the place you left from.

Of course, maybe the tour isn't for you. After all, the party is still going on, and now Coba's businesses are really beginning to open and advertise what they have to offer. Have you checked out the free hotel room? Or maybe you're grabbing a free meal? Or maybe, just maybe - you're looking into an apartment!

Either way, Coba hopes you've been enjoying yourselves. She has so much to offer you.

(welcome to the first official post! Mingle to your hearts' content, and don't be afraid to make your own posts, either!)

[~~Incubi and succubi were in Devil Children, I'm pretty sure they could've made it to Devil Survivor.~~]

They've picked up quite a few things from humans over the years. I know a few demons who are attempting to learn how to make pizza themselves.

[He's now trying to imagine some of the very not humanoid demons trying to make pizza.

Forgive him as he attempts to (badly) restrain his laughter]

I-Is that [Snerk] so? Is that why you guys need so much Macca? To buy pizza ingredients— [Nope. Just laughing. It's not even worth trying to maintain a pokerface for this. If Orias hasn't threatened him or straight out tried to kill him yet, then it's probably safe to do so.]

[He wouldn't do that! Right now he's just looking mildly puzzled.]

What is 'macca'? Some form of currency humans use?

[That seems to surprise her even more.]

I didn't theorize this dimension had those sorts of abilities about it. That's fascinating however.

No kidding. You don't think it's just a big demon, do ya?

I doubt that. The city itself seems to possess no demonic qualities I can sense at least.

[She considers the man beside her though.]

You are a demon though, yes?

I'm from Japan. Specifically Tsukigata.

[And he's a blonde haired, blue eyed man so...]

You're a foreigner though, am I right?

[A bit of a misnomer definitely but that doesn't quite occur to her just yet.]

[Nagi considers how to explain this when she turns to look around her and lo and behold, a phonebooth has appeared.

She gestures to the man a bit so she can lead him toward it.]

I am. An incubus, to be specific.

[He doesn't mind admitting it when asked.]

I've never encountered a demon in the shape of a city before, I'm not certain it's even possible.

He can't say he doesn't know that feeling. And he's the last person to complain about Chie organising her thoughts however she needs to - this is the guy whose class 'notes' end up being doodles or knitting patterns more often than not. (Hell for someone else to borrow, but if you can get him talking about what was going on when he was drawing certain thing, he actually does remember a lot.)

"Ain't sure if it's on Earth or not. Quasi-tropical island - or two of 'em, lately. The local gods're all dicks, and the ringleader of the operation kidnaps people to... have sex for her, pretty much."

The Kanji Chie knew would probably resemble a tomato about now. This Kanji, not so much.

"I came from an island called Atia, where a sex goddess forced us to... er..." Somehow, it's not as easy explaining it here, when no one has to deal with it. "Anyway, I have seen Kanji, Souji, and Yukiko-senpai. We are still trying to figure out who came with us, and if anyone either remained on the island or went home."

[She considers the man a moment. An incubus? ... Well, he doesn't really look like one. Not what she knew from her Master's instructions on them anyhow. Then again everyone seemed to be from some alternative dimension so perhaps he was simply that dimension's version of an incubus.

Nagi reaches up, grasping one of the curls laying over her shoulder to begin stroking at it gently as she thinks.]

In theory it is unlikely. The more likely scenario is this is a dimension influenced by a particular demon's abilities if anything - if demons are involved at all. I don't believe it to be so however and have not added it to the bounds of my conjecture.

It's still more likely to be supernaturally influenced than not, I believe. This kind of changing city is beyond any technological level I've seen before.

"Understood. I will let you know when or if I find anyone else. Hopefully people have their walkies."

It's certainly beyond mine.

[The High Pixie settled atop Nagi's head pitches in finally.]

A lot of things here seem to be though. When they aren't changing anyhow.

What year is it when you're from, if I may ask?

Taisho 20.

Interesting. Where I'm from, the Taisho era only lasted 15 years.

Eh? Really? Who came after then?

The first thing Yukiko does is jump because because there is a strange woman addressing her and she had no idea who she is and how she knows her. She clutched her case tightly and stepped back in worry.

"I...don't know. Have we met?"

[ There is an unsure itty bitty on the guided tour. Hanging toward the back, taking everything in, the seven-year old hasn't quiiiiite figured out how things work yet. Everything changes--literally and figuratively--so fast, and she isn't quite sure what to think.

From time to time, Nanako will pull a pair of peach-colored glasses out, put them on and stare at something intently, as if she could see something someone else could not. She never did and each time she would put them back in her little bear-shaped purse, looking a bit disappointed.

Maybe she should try to find people she knew? She wasn't sure that she would, but maybe? This seemed like something the others would get involved in. ]

[He has gone on the tour, if only because, why not? Always open for challenges and adventures, the elder Jedi is finding it all a bit puzzling, if only because of where he had been, and where he seems to be now. Yet if it is the will of the Force, then so be it.

Yet the voice of the child does make him stop and take note, before questioning further.]

Invisible lady?

"For incubi and succubi, in fact all residents of the Pink World."

It's a complicated device, yes. I don't know all the details of how it works.

That's right! He was quite nice.

[ Walking was for chumps.

Floating about the city on a broomstick, Arche takes everything in. This place was strange. Really neat! But strange! Some things looked familiar to her, like the occasional weapon shop that always seemed to just mysteriously appear just before she hovered by. Others, not so much. ]

This place really can't make up its mind, can it?

"So stuff just changes, just like that? Sheesh, that sounds confusing." Not to mention dangerous. Chie makes a mental note to keep even more on her toes while she's here. "Um ... have you been here long?"
