[IC] Boundary's Edge -- An Urban Fantasy RP

"Hey wait!" Yagra scratched her head as that girl just rushed on ahead. "Geez, you're going to get hurt rushing ahead like that y'know?"

This wasn't going to end well, she could just feel it. Some way or another, that stubbornness and rashness was going punish not only that girl, but the entire group. At least the others were more level headed; even that coward from last night was calmer and more rational. There was danger of course, but it made no sense to just rush in and get themselves in trouble. It would do no one good if they get themselves killed here after all.

"Well, its like the okami said. This would be faster if we knew where she was last seen."

Yagra sighed, and popped open her gourd. Noticing the boy from last night, she offered some of her sake to him.

"Here, uh, what was your name again?" She started walking down the stairs, keeping close to the only human in the group. "It will take the edge off, I think. It always helped for me. Well, I must commend you for being braver than last night. You were so scared I was afraid you were going to piss your pants!"

Yagra laughed loudly at her own joke.

"Don't you worry. I'll be here to protect you! Who knows, you might even pick up something."

"Yes I meant this portal, neat looking isn't? Just try not to lose your HEAD in the excitement ok?"

"Seriously Sven, someone should give you a prize for these puns." he said, laughing.

Shou watched as they got inside the portal. He would be lying if he said he wasn't curious to see how it was on the other side of the portal. He was in fact almost dying of curiosity.

"So... what are we going to do now?" he asked, looking around.

"Oh and call me Yagra."

"So, her name is Yagra?" he mumbled to himself.
"Hey, Sven." he whispered to him.
"Do you know her? Yagra, I mean." he asked, still whispering
"What are her tastes? What does she enjoy to do?" he asked, a little flustered.

Sven looked at Donald and sighed. "Everyone is a little immature. And how do you even know I was being immature? For all you know I could have just said Old Man in German, which is what you are." Sven said. Donald was really getting on his nerves. And when he took the notice and walked into the portal without even reading it he was even more annoyed. "You can't just do what you want! Consult the others, maybe treat us like actual members of a team and... Your not listening anymore are you?" Sven sighed again as Donald went through the portal.

He then turned his attention to Shou who spoke of Yagra. "You have a crush on her don't you? All I can say is she seems to like drinking alot. I wouldn't try to keep up though, could burst a liver." Sven added as he watched the other group leave. "So should we follow Donald? Or actually plan out what we are going to do? I mean, he's gonna come back out once he realizes we aren't there right?" Sven asked Shou.

"Okay, I totally get where you're coming from right now, but there's only so far you can charge into danger before you end up having to be saved too, y'know?" Ren sighed, following up on the rest of the group's commentary towards Ayumi's behavior. Reckless behavior in a place like this... Just from playing games alone the young man knew how badly that would end up. Even with that information aside, it had already been made clear that whatever the power of the charms was had an effective range, and, well...

"...In any case, we should try forging ahead with some degree of caution, though; regardless of who's in the group, I'm pretty sure we can't save your friend if we're all battered and bruised from running into... Whatever the hell else lives in this place right now."

Though his words were still a tad cautious, the college student felt that at least some voice of reason would help things along... Kind of.

"Oh, right, you wanted my name again? It's Ren. Amazawa Ren. Yours was... Uh... Yagra, right? I think that was it," he began to mutter as he followed along down the steps of the shrine, hands in his pockets as his eyes flitted around the stalks of bamboo around the path. "And, hey, to be fair, I've never seen something that big rushing at my face before. Fight or flight response, y'know?"

Internally criticizing himself at his own half-assed justification of his behavior yesterday, Ren sighed as he finished the walk down the steps...

Only to see that the path that they were on was some weird amalgamation of rustic paved-stone road and asphalt-driven street. The sight boggled Ren's mind, if only because of how strange it all seemed (was the road paved over or something?), but he decided to wave it off and glanced back and forth. The steps had led to a fork in the road, of course, and the buildings to either side of them seemed to be either old Edo-era buildings or more modern suburban houses... Or something.

"...Okay, the anachronisms here are really weird. I guess that this means that the 'mirror' part of the description kinda fits," he remarked before sighing. "Though, given the current layout of the road here, I'm gonna assume that the layout of the city itself is parallel to Yuzoraku's... Or, well, something like that. I guess that figuring out where your friend was last seen is probably a good start, because we're probably gonna just let fate take the wheel and pick a direction for us, huh?"

"Rushing in won't help us find someone faster, so we should plan what we are going to do" Takeshi said to Sven "That being said we should go inside the portal and stop Donald before he gets to far ahead and gets decapitated"

Before walking to the portal noticed the curiosity of the newcomer, taking out his camera from his bag he started recording Shou "Hope the priest and you don't mind me recording your first reaction to entering the city of mirrors, you did bring something to protect you right? Or can you remove your head too?"

Her surroundings were... strange, to say the least. But no matter what surrounded her, Ayumi was hardly about to stop for too long. Though... when the others spoke to her, she did pause for a moment. Satonaka-san never really strayed particularly far from her home, nor did she stray from a specific path from her school to her house. The girl was friendly, but also fairly shy, and so she got nervous about going anywhere alone. Therefore, Satonaka Kotomi had picked a very specific route to and from her home, and tended to stick to it. As a result, it wasn't terrible hard to guess where the other girl might have been.

Ayumi turned to face the people she had selected to be her party.

"Satonaka-san has a specific route she likes to take to and from home when she's alone," she explained, "She takes the shortest route because going out alone makes her nervous. So if we just take that route we might be able to find out where she was taken."

With that, Ayumi hurried off once more. The others would follow her, but if they didn't... well, it was her classmate. Her responsibility. The street wasn't too far off, either.
