Owner Pose
Tomoe The castle is in a strange place in the multivese in a region known as the quit on a strange what might almost be considered a minature world carved out a sphere, the central poart of it was where the casle was located on the edge of a body of water that seems to endlessly castade down without any loss of the water. The castle it self was in need of repairs but it was intact.

Though the town in the keep was in a state of disrepair, and there would be a need to either level and repace? Or heavily repair many of the buildings.

Tomoe and her father Pendragon are there and have been working for osme time just clearing a mostly intact building of rotton junk that would likely need ot be burned or otherwise disposed of. The Salamander woman was not in full armour at the moment but a more casual town outfit as she worked finally moving to sit down on a crate.

"You know we still need to figure out how to get power and a good interent connection out here or we're going to have issues, dad."

"What you don't like this old house? Maybe I could call the Tool Man or Bob Viela for help?"

Tomoe just makes a face at Pendragon for the joke about as old as he was.

"Dad, your age is showing, maybe you'll need a walker now humm?"

"...I am not that old young lady I'm not even past fifty!"
Karian Icefang     Karian finally managed to locate the castle after a long stretch of looking. Making his way inside, he looked over to his wolf Ygdril to sniff out the fellow members of the GU. Once the wolf locked onto a scent, he trained in on it, leading his master to the group.
Silica     Keiko is around here somewhere. The teenager is taller than her avatar, but still has much the same build. She approaches Sheena and her father, which might make the younger one double-take.

    Keiko is wearing the outfit Tomoyo made for her, a real life replica of Silica's ALO armour set, done to her RL measurements. She lacks the ears and tail of a Cait Sith, but she's done her hair up in those trademark sidetails. "Tomoe! Pendragon! Hi~."
Tomoe Tomoe looked to see Keiko and grins a little bit as more guests show up. She grins to see that Keiko is here in the flkesh and also sees Karian and some of his companions are arriving.

"Ah so it's true your avatar has shurnk in the wash Keiko!" She stops working and Pendragon just laughs at the idea.

"Doens't matter much Tomoe, whatever form we are in we're like a pair of over sized Oni where ever we go."

He seems to be in very good spirits. "Come to check out how the salvage is going? I figure we burn the rotton wood sell any metal we can't use for scrap and pawn off any items of value we find that we don't have a use for, hopefully that can cut our bills for this place's upkeep."
Karian Icefang     Ygdril looks up, and barks happily at he hears Tomoe's voice. He rushes right over, trying to bowl her over and give wolf kisses. Meanwhile, Karian smiles and makes his way over. "So this is where you've all wound up. I'm glad to see all of you again."
Silica     Keiko giggles softly at Tomoe. "Well it /was/ made when we were stuck in Aincrad, I gerew up a bit since." she remarks, then yeeks as a giant wolf comes barreling over. She glances over at Karian when he speaks. "Um, hi!"
Kirito Kirito, as usual, doesn't like wandering around the Multiverse much as himself. The Spriggan has spent the last ten minutes swooping around the spectacular floating landmass mapping out its various features and pondering how best to put it to use. "This shape... it's like a giant egg. A sliced boiled egg, like in that one dish..." He would be heard to mutter, if anyone was nearby.

    Which they aren't, thankfully.

    The spriggan eventually changes course to swoop towards the castle and land on a balcony on the second floor. He proceeds to march on in as his wings vanish and encounters quite a meeting going on in there...

    "Weeeeeeeell... it's not like we need to pay taxes to anyone. Living in a place that could collapse on us doesn't appeal to me though... we'll need some renovations. Black Dragon, we can call on them for anything we need for supplies... but getting internet way out here..."

    Kirito's brow furrows. "I'm at a loss. FullDive requires a lot of bandwidth and microseconds of latency at most..."
Kain     Left turn... right turn... left turn again... argh! This map looks like it was drawn by an 8 year old! ... then again, most MMO maps aren't much better unless there's several years poured into it... but after a couple of dead ends and wrong turns, the Salamander known as Kain finally arrived at the Gatecrasher HQ. Or... what WOULD be the HQ. This place looked VERY much in need of a huge renovation... From what he heard, it was just starting to become such since before, it was being held in a log cabin on the 22nd floor of Aincrad... but that place couldn't hold huge numbers, so a larger venue was to be expected.

    Now that he was here, he was hesitant... yes, he had been training for quite some time... but it was still somewhat lackluster compared to when he had to LIVE in Aincrad... since being able to go wherever he pleased, he'd spent most of his days in other places... having never really found a place that he truly fit in at. But for now, he was content in just browsing. Speaking of browsing, as he entered the building (assuming it was locked only against non-Gatecrasher individuals somehow), he was met with several people all around cleaning, repairing and doing overall maintenance on the place. There were so many people here he recognized, so many that he knew only by face, but a couple he knew by name as well. Two of them he knew personally, and one he definitely called a friend, going straight up to Tomoe. "Hey! Finally found this place! Someone really needs to work on their mapping skill..."
Karian Icefang     Karian looks over and smirks towards Kirito. "I imagine so. But things'll pick up. I'm always willing to help get some supplies." He says. Meanwhile, Ygdril quickly starts trotting over, giving his hello's to old friends and new alike.
Tomoe Tomoe is basically being dogged right now and she finally is able to squeek out from under the wolf thankfully and shake her self up. "You know I'd forget what he was with how he is in the off time Karian." She seems to be in a good mood and she klooks at Kain starts to arrive and frins glad to see the younger SAO surivor.

"Good to see you here Kain. Well could be worse and honestly we need to consider a warpgate for later."

She looks over to Kirito grinning.

"Yes Fayt's going to be able to set up shop here as part of the payment for his help, it should be a good thing long term. Staren has an idea for a water wheel or two to get us the power we need. As for no taxes ya that's a awesome part of about this. No one has claim to it but us."

Pendragon pauses "Maybe hit up some of more high tech friends they might have something, or maybe we can find some old Confederate or Union hardware for that?"
Kirito "Hmmmm..." Kirito starts rubbing his chin - but once Ygdril is done pouncing the others the big dog eventually comes swooping at Kirito and -- "AWAGH!" THUMP!

    He's down and out, being smothered in licks. "Ack-ack-ack--down boy, dooooooowwwwwwn-- sheesh..." Although he's grinning, hints of standoffish sarcasm slip into his voice. "When maneating superwolves are puppies at heart..."

    As soon as Ygdril's attention is elsewhere Kirito expertly backflips to his feet and wipes himself off, looking mildly embarassed.

    "I'm sure there's an answer out there. It's not like there isn't plenty of physics-breaking gadgets in the Multiverse. And magic for that matter... if those can work together. Something like... quantum entanglement communication...?" How much the spriggan in black's words are rhetorical or actual questions remains to be seen...

    But after a bit he sends a nod Tomoe's way.

    Kirito's usual confidence and easygoing attitude seems to have started shifting back and regressing recently. His expression's turned ever more serious when discussing business like this.

    Just as serious as Back Then.
Kain     Kain looks around at the place a bit. "Well... to be fair, are we going to actually have our real bodies come here that often? I'm perfectly fine with just coming here in my Avatar... but if people are really interested in it, I could see what I could do. My mom's a network technician, and I picked up my fair share of tricks over the years. 2 millisecond ping FTW." He legit just said the letters FTW out loud... "Other than that, all else I can provide is manual labor and cooking. The latter being much better from me than the former... haven't had to do much cleaning myself at all..."

    Kain looks around at the other people that are here right now. "So... seeing how big this place is... I'm honestly wondering just how many people are in the Union... if it's enough that this place was necessary, that's... vaguely terrifying... never been one for large groups of people... even the amount of people and... things..." He looks over towards the HUGE wolf and the small dragon perched on top of a nearby girl's head... "it's kind of off-putting for me..."

    He takes a small, steadying breath. "But it's stuff like this that I actually have to put myself out towards. If I don't learn to interact with others in my avatar, I'm never going to interact well with others in my real body..." His words make him subconsciously start gripping his left leg a bit...

    After Kirito got his turn with the wolf... suddenly it was his turn! The large wolf began to jump towards the Salamander as panic spread across his face, fear paralyzing him in place as suddenly he was pounced to the ground and... smothered in kisses... "Ack, geez! Large dog! Slobber! Eck! Doooowwwwwwn boy!" After a little bit of that, the wolf backed off and moved on to another victim... standing up, he was just completely covered head to toe in dire wolf slobber. "Eugh... I mean, I know this isn't really my body... but it's still gross..."
Karian Icefang     At the current licking spree of Ygdril, Karian can't help but laugh. "Oh, don't worry. He's harmless. Granted he's a bit of a warhound.
Kirito "The idea--" Kirito chokes on his words momentarily, taking a few moments to think them through more carefully. "This is a refuge. In case more disasters happen. In case governments start looking our way. In case enemies in the Multiverse crop up. It's a contingency plan, a way for us to look after each other. It's not like compulsory school..." He looks up towards the ceiling in further thought, then towards Kain.

    Once again the Black Swordsman furrows his brow, taking note of Kain's odd treatment of the leg.

    "Telling people how they should act in public... I lost that license long ago. What we're getting involved in is really dangerous."
Tomoe Tomoe says "It seems you can't escape it either Kirito, and ya your righ we'll likely have to look into some serious hardware which will mean we either salvage it, fix it up? Get is as payment for a job or out right buy such a thing. We should hit up Staren there nad maybe a few others on that."

She looks back to Kain for a moment and listens to what he has to say even as the woldf seems to be very much in puppy mode. It's rather reasshring that it's just a trained military wolf than an uncontrollled attack beast. Then again given how the Space Wolves are? They would treat their four lagged companions fairly well.

"Heh I forget this isn't my body all the time, honestly being in my body feels off."
Silica     Keiko, silent up until now, lightly pets Ygdril's ears as he comes over, soothing the Thunder Wolf and being largely spared the tongue bath. She smiles gently at the large beast, tickling under his chin, before speaking up in return to Tomoe. "We could always look at the Syndicate boards... I've helped out Miss Lexicon in her world because of those... maybe she could give us a hand in getting infrastructure down or something?"
Tomoe Tomoe says "Good thinking there Keiko, find work there see what we can do if you want to donatge money to this project that's fine. I won't force anyone to invest into it if they don't want to however. Right it wouldn't be fiar and really? We'll have to see what to do even with what Kirito said our home's become ... a bit of a back water with the war over and I ... don't mind that at all."
Kirito This bit of news has Kirito turning his gaze towards Silica, eyes full of a question... which he then goes and says anyways. "Lexicon? For once I'm out of the loop... what's going on with her world?"
Tomoe Tomoe says "I admit I have been out of the loop but then agian so far as I know no one on the core raid team of Guild's signed on with any of the new factions so far. I'm not sure I ever intend to myself. Don't want to end up on a leash myself."
