19:05 - District 2 - Academy City.
Ascendancy Research Institute.
A mechanical door hisses slightly as it slides open. A young aide steps through into a spartan room containing a work desk with several monitors, a large CPU and a lone server in the corner.
The aide places a few files onto the table as a man with graying hair continues typing with a keyboard. "Sir, all the invites have been sent out, either digitally or by hand-delivered mail. The psychological evaluations for those most likely to shift to level 5 by the end of the project are here, listed by potential and likely shift dates."
The older man pauses his typing and looks up, resting his hands on the armrests of his chair.
"Ah, Kitamura. Good job. Given the mind-boggling scale of this project, I'm surprised you got all of those out so fast. You really are a talent."
The aide steps back, shaking his head.
"Not at all, sir. Your skill at delegation got me the personalized letters on schedule."
The older man smiles, then takes a sip of coffee from a mug on his table.
"So all the preparatory work is done... So far. Any news on the competing projects?"
"No further breakthroughs, but I heard that the Revenant team has begun testing nanotechnological applications."
"Hmm, interesting. So, are Imai and the girl ready?"
"Yes."
"Excellent." The elder of the two places his elbows on the table, interlocks his fingers and leans in, his nose hovering a few centimeters from his thumbs. As he pauses, only the soft hum of the server's coolant pumps can be heard. Then, he speaks again.
"Then everything is in place. We begin the next phase tomorrow then. Tell Imai to be here by tomorrow and send out the messages."
The aide nods and turns to leave.
"Sir."

19:00 - District 7 - Academy City.
Judgement Office 177
Today is yet another quiet day, despite the intense flurry of activity over the previous few weeks- what with the (unfruitful) pursuit of Ashikaga Daisuke and the various altercations the unfortunate members of Office 177 had to deal with. Almost all of the members were sitting around the lounge, doing their homework or playing with their phones or handheld gaming devices.
Except one.
In his own cubicle, Shirogane Ren was browsing through the exterior photos he took of the Ascendancy Institute, noting out exits, exposed windows and fire escapes, while at the same time mentally pre-measuring teleportation points.
The Combat Esper Program, like every other "test", was most likely a trap, but there was something to be gained by participating.

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
The reunion between Sakura and Shizuka seemed to be a happy one for both of them. Ishimaru Moroe, on the other hand, had no reason to celebrate it. All she saw (via her floating spy) was the potential for tragedy and extra work.
"A two year memory gap? That has 'test subject' written all over it. I really hope I'm not about to get a call from someone who wants that girl's brains blown out..."

"...that's not good." Shizuka frowns slightly, chewing on her bottom lip. "I mean, mom and dad went out to look for you after an hour or so, but they couldn't find you. Then we called the police and they started searching, but they couldn't find you either. So where did you go...?"Avatar of Furude Setsuna, by Telasi.Originally Posted by Akagi

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
[ONIZUKA, LUNCH ON THE ROOF]
Eventually, once all the hoopla with the tremor has subsided, the students will probably just sit down to eat lunch. Eli went with a simple peanut butter sandwich with strawberry jam today, although it looks like he doubled up on the peanut butter. Unless a conversation strikes itself up in the course of things, he'll ask the group, "So, are all of you guys psychics already? I'm stoked to learn some crazy skills myself."

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
"Crazy skills? Does that make me a crazy user?" says Shun chuckling, while eating his yakisoba bread. He makes no efforts in trying to deny being an ESPer, since he let the cat out of the bag before when telling Tobio not to go alone, but does not specify what power he has. "Anyway, you're new here, so it's normal to not have any yet...but don't worry, all you need is the drive to obtain them. After all, it's a matter of personal reality."
To the optimist, the glass is half-full.
To the pessimist, the glass is half-empty.
To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
Tobio had decided not to go as the tremors ended. After all he didn't want to get civilians involved with something so potentially dangerous. Plus it wasn't like he was the only Judgement officer. There would no doubt be others on the scene, probably closer too. As he sat back down apprehensively he looked over at Shun and Eli, listening to their conversation. Hearing what Shun said he nodded in agreement.
"Yeah Eli-san. Shun-san is correct. I should know, I've been working very hard on my power recently. I won't be sure till the next System Scan but I think I've gone from a level 3 to a level 4. Understanding how your power works and working hard at improving it are key elements to getting better."

Krystal grins and nods her head.
Definitely on the laser tag. We'll see about the paintballs.

All these technical terms make Eli's head spin. He tries not to sound too whiny as he quizically repeats, "Uh, hang on...'Personal reality'? And what's this about 'scanning' and 'levels'...? Ugh, I'm already confused..."
So it begins. ((But don't feel like you need to type it all out; simply noting if they have a discussion explaining how ESPer skills and evaluation work will suffice.))

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
Kin contentedly rested her head on her friend's shoulder. She really liked this new, clingier Crocell. Lately he seemed to take every opportunity to pull her (and/or Krystal) into a platonic embrace. Kin was of course happy to indulge this growing compulsion.
"Then let us go forth, to the best laser tag arena in the city! My ultra platinum membership card has gone unused for far too long. Onward!"
If Crocell so desired, he'd be able to keep his arm around Kin until they reached their destination: An arcade so massive that it could easily be mistaken for a research institute. As usual, the architects of Academy City had refused to settle for second place.Last edited by Anyr; 2014-05-16 at 06:42 PM.

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
"Uh...well...ESPers are ranked...
...and that's what personal reality is. The gist of it, at least." Shun finishes explaining, hoping to have done so decently and showing off his scientific knowledge. He has however the tendency to use a lot of technical terms, so probably Tobio has had to re-explain some parts with more "understandable" ones. He then turns towards the Judgment boy and sincerely tells him: "Level 4, you say? Well, congratulations!".To the optimist, the glass is half-full.
To the pessimist, the glass is half-empty.
To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

"Ah, alright." Shizuka hugs her sister, smiling. "I believe that you didn't do it on purpose. I know wouldn't."

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
What Kin noticed about Crocell was him trying to make himself adapt to close contact with a girl. After figuring out that Kin was not going to stop hugging her snuggly heat source he figured that 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em'. Krystal he gave a hug because he hadn't seen her in so long thanks to her being out of town. Kin was the cuddle monster though. So as a test to himself Crocell did his best to keep his one armed hug around Kin, very conscious of how they looked since Kin decided to rest her head on his shoulder. Normally Crocell didn't give two craps about people though about him. However thinking about how they looked to other people got Crocell's mind started down the road about him and Kin actually being like that. That brought back the redness to his face as they headed off towards their destination. Crocell could only be glad that he didn't have these problems with Krystal thanks to the fact that she was all to conscious about the connotations of things like this.

Re: [RailITP] Academy City FFRP IC I
That, and the fact that Krystal thought Kin and Crocell were cute together.
Krystal looks up at the arcade with wonder. Sure, she had been here before. But it had been a while, and the size of things here in Academy City was very much different than where she just came back from. Except the football stadium there. That was big enough to be at home here.
