April Catchall!
Characters: Zelos Wilder and YOU
Date: All throughout April!
Location: All over the city!
Situation: Arrival/Mugging/Etc
Warnings/Rating: PG-13 For mugging stuff also Zelos flirts a lot.
April 3rd
The former Chosen had quite literally found himself 'washed up.' Despite having clear memories of falling asleep in Meltokio, he'd woken up in the middle of a canal in a strange city. Everywhere he looked, the buildings seemed to be in shades of blue and green, with the occasional purple. While some of the buildings might not look out of place in Meltokio, to see this many at once was unlikely. He was also feeling pretty drained and lethargic, which certainly wasn't helping matters, and the new bracelet on his wrist is strangely foreboding.
The first thing that springs to mind is foul play, but it doesn't take long for him to discount that thought almost entirely. If somebody had gone through that much effort, why would they just drop him in a canal?
His first order of business is making it onto land, and he might appear disoriented (and wet!) for a bit, but it won't take long before he sets out trying to find out more information. Eventually, he'll end up at the welcome center.
April 4th-5th
After he has a better idea of what's going on, he'll spend the first two-or-so days trying to get acquainted with the city.
By this point, he's obtained (through slightly questionable means) a new set of clothes that help him blend in better with the surrounding area. As he's still pretty wary about this entire ordeal, he's going to do his best to blend into the background (as much as a foreigner can, anyway) for these two days and gather information.
He'll be mainly sticking around the Fire, Metal, and Earth Sectors, and might pop out to ask a question, but will otherwise be pretty unobtrusive.
April 6th
Anybody who knows Zelos might notice that he looks a little more on edge on the sixth. His behavior starts more subtle, but gradually becomes more obvious as the day goes on. Eventually, he'll be walking a little bit faster and constantly ducking in and out of alleyways, almost like he's trying to lose someone (or someones, as the case may be). Anybody watching closely might see a young boy and girl not far behind him.
April 7th
Zelos notices the bracelet missing pretty quickly, but despite his best attempts to track down the brats he suspects are responsible for taking it, it's not long before he's doubled over in pain in an alleyway in the Central Sector. Anybody wanna help a guy out?
April 15thish-Onwards
A - The Midnight Hotel
A little more adjusted to the city and with a better idea of the situation, Zelos' abrasive nature has returned. He's managed to find a room at the Midnight Hotel, and needless to say, he's not the best of roommates.
Maybe he left his shit in your area, or maybe he keeps flirting with your girlfriend and/or sister. Whatever the case, he can be found in Room 20 for any and all necessary confrontations.
B - Pick a bar, any bar.
On about any given night he can be found in a bar not too far from the hotel, drink in hand. His behavior there really isn't any better than at the hotel, be it flirting with anything with a skirt and a pulse or taking part in a game of dice or cards with the other patrons. Whatever bar-related activity you can think of, it will be relevant here.
C - Choose your own adventure!

Apr 3?
For a moment, she stopped and stared. A small, traitorous corner of her mind wondered why couldn't you have been Regal. Regal would have been a concerted help keeping Foreigners from murdering each other. Zelos... Zelos was likely to get himself punched at some point.
But it was Zelos, and whatever else he was, he was among those she'd saved the worlds with. Raine made her way over to where he was, offered a hand down to help if he needed it. "Hello, Zelos," she said. Surprise wasn't evident in her voice. He might notice she looked tired, perhaps even a little older than he'd last seen her, and while she wore the same orange jacket as ever the cut of the clothes beneath was different. She'd been here a while.
lbr if all Zelos managed to do was get himself punched it'd be a miracle
He'll happily take her hand as he pulls himself up. He was still pretty on edge about the whole situation, but if one of his old companions was here, it probably wasn't as malicious as he initially thought.
"Hello there, my gorgeous beauty."
He tries to pull himself together and put on his usual theatrics as he says it, but as he's still suffering a combination of bedhead and "waking-up-in-a-canal-head", the effect is considerably lessened.
she'll settle for not getting himself shanked
Whether he woke up in the canal or was tossed there by someone who took offense to his flirting, she can only assume it wouldn't have happened if he had all his power available to him. That thought raises another question, actually. "And what's the last thing you remember before waking here?"
no promises
"I was out with all my lovely hunnies, of course!"
He was actually in bed, asleep, but pointing that out might have made him feel a little too vulnerable (and it didn't really fit his image, anyway.)
no subject
She frowns a little, realizing he hasn't addressed her by name, and while it looked like he recognized her, and he hasn't treated her as a complete stranger, neither has he said anything useful as a point of reference. Raine throws him a bone of a sort, to which his reaction will be informative in one way or another. "For comparison, the last memory I have of our world is the new Tree," she says. 'World' is pointedly singular.
no subject
He shrugs his shoulders as nonchalantly as he can before replying. "There was a giant tree, the worlds reunited, and I was on a giant PR trip to keep the Sylvaranti and Tethe'Allans from killing each other. Happy?"
no subject
Raine sighs, rubs a hand across her eyes. "Thrilled," she returns, a little dry. "That puts you a little ahead, though. That's interesting-- I wonder why..." She trails off, considering possible reasons for the discrepancy between his time and theirs. Perhaps it's just that random, though she doesn't really like that explanation.
"Never mind," she says in a moment, clearing her thoughts and focusing on Zelos again. "Come on." Raine motions that he should follow her, waits to make sure he actually will before starting to walk. "I'll show you to the Hotel. It's considered neutral ground, here, and the man who runs it has the power to enforce that. He's a Foreigner, like us, so you won't need to be as cautious as you might in the rest of the city."
