A few moments after the red-headed student had entered, Nanako stepped inside the convenience store. Unlike the younger girl, she didn't pick up on the strangely-empty premises, only noting Akane's presence with some recognition. There weren't many underclassmen with red hair like that, after all.

Given her limited time and unfamiliarity with the other girl, Nanako headed straight for the drinks. Not that she wanted to avoid conversing with fellow students, but the senior's time was limited as it was.
Strawberry milk in hand, Nanako walked to the counter, placing the drink upon it. Before she could search inside her bag for her purse, however, the emptiness of the place finally dawned on her. With a confused expression, she looked all around the shop. Weird, it was really only herself and the underclassman. Were the employees in the back?

"Nana?" A voice, normally laid-back and laden with mischief, echoed within her head. Nanako had gotten used to this form of communication after a while, but hearing Tamako's voice directly in her head had thrown off the schoolgirl for a bit. Given the neutral tone, it seemed like Tamako had noticed something odd, herself.

"Dunno if it's anything big, just a head's up, ya know?" Tamako cautioned. There wasn't a hint of major worry in her mental-voice. After all, Nanako had at this gig just long enough that she wasn't in danger of making a serious rookie mistake. Not to mention, Nanako wasn't the type to heroically charge into the front lines of battle, and the abundance of other magical girls meant that, should a Negari erupt from the ground behind her and strike, it'd probably get interrupted by twenty magical girls before Nanako needed to turn her head.

...That said, keeping on guard wouldn't exactly hurt.

"Thanks, Tama-chan. I'll be careful." Nanako replied with a small smile. Speaking telepathically was always odd to her, face-to-face conversations were always much better. With her fairy's warning in mind, Nanako waited for an employee to emerge, offering a small smile to the red-haired student as she did.

I'll be posting later today.

Ignite Heart! A Magical Girl RP

For most students, the end of a school day was to signal the gates of freedom opening up for them, allowing the youths of the country to spend the remainder of the day however they liked. For Nadeshiko Nanako, it was essentially a reminder that her extra classes started in an hour.

Nanako had long since grown out of public displays of displeasure and frustration, making it virtually impossible to notice the reluctance in which she gathered her belongings into the schoolbag by the side of her desk, exchanging farewells with her classmates everyone filed from the classroom. A few minutes later, Nanako had stepped outside the building, walking onward with an unreadable expression.
What awaited her today was several hours worth of sewing to build her skills with mending and creating clothes, helping with the cooking to... well, improve cooking, and then studying for class the next day. None of that was particularly enjoyable to Nanako, but dwelling on it was only going to build the dread to unbearable levels.

She had a little time to herself for the moment... she'd probably stop by the convenience store for a quick snack, and then... a small smile spread across her face, deciding that maybe spending half an hour as her alter-ego would help brighten her day, if only a little.

The Divine Messenger Descends

• Name: Nadeshiko Nanako
• Magical Girl Title: Divine Messenger. Though she welcomes the use of "Inari", as well.
• Age: 18
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: A pleasant day.
• Magical Girl Appearance: Costume reference. Additionally, she wears a fox mask, as well.
• Personality:
  Quiet, ever-smiling, reliable... Nanako's almost demure attitude is a product of her strict upbringing; Coming from a moderately wealthy family, she was brought up on the belief she would provide the perfect wife to a suitable partner. Because of this, Nanako has had difficulty making friends, as she would rarely be allowed to play with them, and could never participate in whatever fad would pass through the school yard, due to the extra studying she had to undertake. A shame, considering Nanako's fairly outgoing and cheerful demeanour, which has slowly been shelved away to make place for the 'ideal' personality instilled within her.
  
  Luckily, thanks to her position as a magical girl, she's able to cut loose and play around as much as she likes, without fear of being recognised by classmates or family. Whenever she dons the persona the Divine Messenger Inari, Nanako becomes something of a playful trickster - While she'll fight off any Negari she happens to come across, Nanako spends just as much time messing around with fellow magical girls, provoking reactions from them for her own amusement. Of course, that's put to rest in the off-chance a Negari attack occurs, but otherwise, Nanako is likely not too popular with her fellow magical girls, and maybe even a divisive figure in popularity polls... when she isn't masquerading as someone else purely to mess with their ranks a little.
  
  Nanako, when not bound by her 'public' persona, or blowing off steam as a trickster fox, can be surprisingly down-to-earth. She may have been raised in an environment that screams of old-fashioned beliefs and restrictive access to modern technology, but Nanako is able to easily grasp the usage of technology, and does own a smartphone. Although she generally keeps to herself, Nanako quite enjoys lending a helping hand to struggling classmates with their studies, and assisting others whenever she can. Just about the only thing she's never been able to do is keep her cool around dogs. Wow, those things are scary.
• Skills:
  Nanako scores very well academically, and her upbringing has led to her developing "feminine" skills such as sewing, cooking and typical "house-wife skills", even if she has no patience for such things.
• Abilities:
  Aside from a general (and small) boost to strength and speed, enough to take on weaker Negari without much trouble, Nanako's powers are geared more towards deception and misdirection, with little in the way of direct offence.
  Fox Flame - Her only directly offensive spell; despite the name and appearance of bright blue flames, this attack isn't really a fire-based attack. Rather, it's more like a blast of magical power that Nanako can spread around in a manner similar to flames, but don't have the capability of burning things.
  Can You Find Me? - For a short time, Nanako is able to change her appearance into that of an inanimate object. Or, to be more accurate, project the illusion of doing so, allowing her to disguise herself as a rock on the side of the road, for example. Note that this does not change her physical presence in any way - punching the space above said rock would result in you hitting poor, defenceless Nanako in the face, you monster.
  Who's Behind The Mask?! - Assuming nothing interrupts her, Nanako is able to assume the appearance of another person for up to a minute. She inherits none of said person's abilities, and would have to rely on her acting talent to keep within character of whoever she's imitating. This is particularly fun for screwing with popularity polls, it turns out.
• Weapon(s): Not exactly a weapon, but her mask is an important tool to her magic. Aside from the welcome benefit of hiding her face, it also powers all of her non-fox fire magic. Dealing enough damage to break it, or even somehow removing it from her face, would be enough to render said abilities unusable until the mask is repaired or recovered. Good thing it's more durable than a typical kitsune mask.
• Brief History:
  A girl raised to be the ideal wife, Nanako strict upbringing was slowly wearing her out, and was actually quite close to falling into delinquency to relieve her frustrations, until she was visited by a fairy. Said fairy had felt the best way to introduce herself was to coat Nanako's bathrobe with itching powder, but about two hours and a flick to the head later, this fairy had offered Nanako something fantastical - a chance to be a magical girl.
  
  It took a little while to decide, but Nanako took the plunge and accepted, and for the past few months, has been able to enjoy herself without fear of being discovered, just as long as she doesn't spend too long playing around - after all, she's supposed to be studying quietly in her room, or attending cram school, not fighting strange monsters or pretending to be a giant bobblehead towering above a random magical girl.
• Fairy Name: Tamako
• Fairy Appearance: So innocent-looking.
• Fairy Personality: A trouble-maker that isn't above bending the rules slightly to make things easier for herself, and quite fond of the occasional prank, Tamako may seem like a bad role-model for Nanako (or the perfect partner to the Divine Messenger?), and some of her suggestions may not lead to the most optimal outcomes possible... but she certainly does care for her partner, and certainly won't tolerate utter chaos descending upon everything. Ultimately, she's looking to have some fun while she works, and has good intentions at heart.

I'm interested, and should have an idea up soon for this.

World Core: A Multiversal Crossover RP

Charmeine, expositing within the fluffiest room ever

"I know. I'll get things started," Charmeine replied to Juno-Seto, and quickly returned to flicking her fingers through the air before her, facing the large monitor. Judging by the constant motion of images and rapidly-forming text, the young girl was calling up as much information as possible.

"Okay... looks like these places are called Nanimori and Midchilda," Charmeine muttered, "the former's a small town with a bunch of strong fighters, and the latter's like a hub for mages. That's a bold first move..."

Her movements paused momentarily at Harry's suggestion of focusing on only one world. Her expression was unseen, biting at her lip with worry. Maybe from a pragmatic standpoint, overpowering Zuriel's allies in one world would let them defend one world... but for every world they ignored, that was essentially a free world core, and with one already in her possession, such a tactic was probably doomed from the start...

Hearing Saber's question, Charmeine shook her head and quickly started 'typing' once more. A few moments later, when the panel in the middle of the room started to glow, she finally answered the knight, "about that... it's possible to temporarily 'lock' the cores."

Turning to address the group once more, she continued, "if we can reach the core first, we can use it to eject... I guess 'foreigners' from the world, us included. No one from outside of that world can get back in for a while after that, so we won' have to keep an eye on it!"

During her explanation, the panel growed brighter, a soft, orange glow emanating from the panel, "okay, let's split into two teams! First group will head to that Nanimori place, and the others will go to Midchilda, okay?"

----------------------

Gilgamesh, entering Hitmanland

Alongside the others that chose to visit the world of Hitmen, Gilgamesh walked through the portal. Compared to his usual method of traveling between worlds, this wasn't all that unpleasant. It helped he wasn't getting sucked in one end and unceremoniously dropped out the other. This was definitely a step up.

As for this place in which the invading group had entered, it was... different. Gilgamesh wasn't sure how to describe the town they appeared to have entered, though some may recognise it as looking like a typical, modern Japanese town. The theatrical warrior looked around, noting the biggest building that stood before them - a url=imgur.com/hGNWLov]place of education[/url] quite unlike anything Gilgamesh had seen before. As such, he didn't identify as anything but a stronghold, and faced the group, rubbing his hands together with excitement.

"Okay guys, before we start looking, I think we should discuss how to distribute loot! If there's any fancy swords, I'm calling dibs!"

Come to think of it... how exactly where they to find the cores? That girl with the awesome sword hadn't mentioned that, did she? ...Well, whatever. Gilgamesh was a top-class treasure hunter! He had confidence in his ability to locate rare treasures.

Right now, the group's more immediate concern was probably how... noticeable they were. There wasn't anyone in sight at the moment, but who knew how much attention they'd get if even one random bystander took notice of them?

----------------------

Yuuka, entering Magitopia

"The pleasure's all mine," Yuuka replied cheerily. She seemed unfazed at this person's name was... well, more of a title than anything. Probably because Yuuka herself had obtained many titles, almost all of which made reference to her top-notch ability to mentally scar humans... and the nostlagic feeling that accompanied such titles would indicate just how long it had been since she was first assigned such things.

"Perhaps I'll accompany you," Yuuka continued, "a world of magic would suit my nature more~"

Following after the Anguished One and Alice, Yuuka paused at the portal to address Zuriel, facing her with a polite smile. After a small bow, she said, "Rest assured, we shall obtain these cores you seek~ Barring any intereference from powerful local forces, or travelling do-gooders~"

Chuckling, Yuuka stepped through the portal.

World Core: A Multiversal Crossover RP

Indeed, just getting stuff written down on my end.

World Core: A Multiversal Crossover RP

Charmeine

Everyone was agreeing to stay and help. Relief had flooded through Charmeine as everyone offered their support. Juno was being particularly sympathetic, it was enough to bring tears of happiness to the young girl's eyes. Swiftly, she turned her back to the group and 'subtly' wiped at her eyes, before facing everyone again with as big as smile as she could manage.

"I can't really thank you all enough... um, thanks!" Charmeine replied. Her expression dropped somewhat at Hibiki's question. Restoring her world... with a deep breath, Charmeine replied, "it's... not impossible, as long as the core gets recovered, but... well, obviously it's not here."

She gave a forced giggle, continuing, "I'm more worried about other worlds getting caught up in this, so let's focus more on prevention! Besides, I don't know where Z... where the thief even is!"

Gunha's question gave Charmeine an excuse to not swell on Zuriel's action much more, and with renewed optimism, answered, "Right! Starting! Chances are, the thief's gonna target another world sometime soon, so..."

With a clap of her hands, something unexpected happened. At the far end of the sizeable room, behind the long-haired girl, a massive screen seemed to fall from the ceiling, approximately 30 inches wide. The monitor lay suspended from beams extending from the ceiling, and clashed quite horribly with the aggressively pink and pillowy theme the room was sporting.

Char skipped towards the monitor, which flickered to life to show... not much that could be commented on. If anything, it was akin to a screensaver, showing nothing but the occasional flicker on light on random parts of the screen.
"With this thing here, I can detect when a tear in reality's opened!" Char explained gleefully, much like a child showing off a fancy new toy to their friends, "it'll show me where one is and then I ca-"

Her explanation was cut off by a robotic, neutral voice emanating from the monitor itself, "Crap! Crap! Two whole problems detected! Someone help immediately! It's a super huge emergency!"

Even Charmeine was stunned, evidently not expecting... that, to be the indicator of her sister's next move. Then, she shook her head and rushed to the monitor, raising her hands and seemingly waving her fingers over thin air. Although judging by the cancellation of the unfitting alarm, as well as the data currently flying up on-screen, she seemed to be controlling it somehow.

"Why two? How can she..." Charmeine muttered to herself, concerned. On screen, two separate files seem to appear, either side showing a picture of a location, and a lot of text files giving accompanying information, "...so she had the same idea..."

Charmeine turned once more to her allies, looking rather worried, "...So... yeah, I think she's starting already. Two rifts have opened up, which... means she found her own set of friends, too."
Splitting up the group wasn't something Charmeine liked doing, but her hand was already forced, "I'll give you all as much information as I can, but we'll need to move quickly."

------------------------------------------

Gilgamesh

A world of hitmen, and a world of magical police? Gilgamesh didn't ponder the options too long - it was obvious that the land of hitmen was going to yield better opponents and loot! It was just common sense. The masked warrior stepped towards one, nodding in satisfaction.

"Gilgamesh has made his choice!" he announced theatrically, turning to his new allies, "brothers! Sisters! Comrades that sh away from familial terms! Follow me to glory, and we shall emerge triumphant in our search for shiny stuff! But I call dibs on any swords we find, all right?!"

-------------------------------------------

Yuuka

Yuuka's gaze turned towards a girl she hadn't noticed a moment before, who seemed to stare at Yuuka with great interest. The youkai could tell this girl was not human, which was probably to be expected - she seemed to have been summoned by the white-haired fellow, judging from his earlier mutterings. Yuuka wasn't one to pry, but their proximity made it hard not to hear. Of course, at the moment, it meant largely nothing to her, though she took note for later. Just in case.

"...No need to apologise," Yuuka replied kindly to him, and gently patted the blonde girl on the head, "Alice, was it? She's very pretty."

Zuriel had since cut two holes into the air, giving them the choice of world to visit first. Well, she could take her time with that, Yuuka wasn't concerned about a quick strike. Although she'd already decided upon the world of magic, if for no other reason that to test if her abilities or very existence had been altered in any negative way.

Smiling kindly to Alice 'the Anguished One', Yuuka continued, "My name is Kazami Yuuka. I hope we can get along well~"

World Core: A Multiversal Crossover RP

As long as he can't alter anyone's actions with that skill, he should be fine to go.
