Possible Scenarios 01. A New Arrival: Hello, New Person! You seem to have found yourself on a sidewalk in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stomach chruning feeling of being displaced. Thankfully, the streets are full of people - Watch out that you don't get mugged! 02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Whatever bar or street you're hanging out in suddenly go dim, filling the area with an unnerving feeling as the shadows on the walls jump out into reality. We suggest you phone a friend for help, or maybe try running? 03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party at the Tower that spills out its doors in welcome, by someone who calls themselves the Emperor. Obviously, that's weird, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad. 04. Prominence: The City of Sin influences it's population on a weekly basis. Too bad you came right smack dab in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride. Choose your choice of sin and be wicked. 05. Trouble: Not everyone is sunshine and roses here. Some people are violent and cruel, raised in the sludge of a sinful city. And they like to pick on people they think can't fight back. Are you that person? Or are you the Hero who can't stand to watch? Worse yet, could you be the person doing the instigating? Villian. 06. Carnival: The City has carnivals or festivals now and then; you're lucky to catch one! With its open booths filled with cork gun games and funnel cakes, how can someone not have any fun! Go win your darling a stuffed animal, or meet someone new on the spinning cup ride. You might even see someone you know being talked into sitting in the Dunk Tank. 07. Network: There's a network device in your pocket - or at least a familiar object that seems to work in mysterious ways. Perhaps you can take to that and ask for a bit of help? Or maybe you'd prefer to have a little fun with all of this. Surely someone will reply. 08. Wild Card:Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

It was debatable whether Tommy would've noticed he was being pickpocketed if he'd had an actual wallet on him and not just the phone and key that'd been planted on him when he'd arrived. As it were, he had nothing on him.

But when he got bumped into, he took it as just that, getting bumped into.

"Shi- Uh. Oh. Hey~" What had started with being startled ended up in a suave, flirtatious smile, obviously clueless she'd been trying to steal from him.

Elizabeth paused when he addressed her, then decided to play it cool. He was smiling, so probably things were fine. "Oh, hello. Sorry about the bump. I'm a bit. . ." She motioned vaguely toward herself, to show that she was in rough shape. "Out of sorts. I think I broke a heel."

She gave him her own smile, though it was more sheepish than flirtatious. She didn't know what to do with people who weren't old enough to be her parents.

It was pretty clear that Tommy had no idea that their run in was anything but a happy accident, and he was quickly positioning himself to take advantage of their chance meeting.

"Nah, no problem. No harm done," He gave her a concerned look over, tilting his head slightly to get a look at her shoes. Luckily, he'd had enough time to find himself a set of regular clothing and wasn't in his spandex onesie.

"Where were you headed. Maybe I could walk you there, just in case you think you might lose your balance again. Hey, I'd even offer you a piggy back ride if you're down," He grinned.

[oiseau_ou_cage]

She didn't think she was down enough to need a piggy back ride to be cheered up. She giggled a little and gave him a shy smile. "I was hoping to buy something decent to wear. And I'm. . . new to town and need a little bit of a tour."

She didn't know how she'd gotten there, so it was safer to say she was from out of town than that she'd magically appeared in a swanky apartment in a completely foreign city. She had the feeling she wasn't in the 1960's anymore.

"Oh, my name is Elizabeth. What's yours?" If he was going to show her around she wanted to know how to address him.

[quickestsilver]

"Me too actually. Yesterday," He admitted, smile softening. He had super speed and had explored the entire town in the first half an hour and was still completely confused by this place, so he could only imagine how things were for her.

"I'm not sure I could do a tour, but I'd definitely be down to explore with you," His smile turned hopeful.

"I'm Tommy. It's nice to meet you. Even if the circumstances are super weird."

[oiseau_ou_cage]

"The circumstances are really weird," she agreed. "Um, so where did you come from? I'm from pretty far away." Best to broach the subject carefully, maybe finding out why he came here would tell her more about the place.

She started to walk again, glancing over at Tommy with a shy smile. He seemed like a nice young man. Maybe she wasn't in a bad place. You couldn't tell just by looking, after all. Both Rapture and Columbia had been beautiful in their own ways.
