Who: Itsuki, Parley ([personal profile] distorts_space), open to other folks too
When: Sunday, August 10th (backdated)
Where: Myoudouin Dojo
What: The dojo has an exhibition today, and that means the heir is in combat. Combat can take some weird turns sometimes, though...

Every so often - maybe a couple times a month, sometimes more, sometimes less, it depends on how the Myoudouin patriarch is feeling - the Myoudouin Dojo opens its doors for a public exhibition match or several. Usually, these are arranged, but on occasion he'll take other folks that he knows are (or that claim to be) strong enough to let Itsuki give a good showing. Or remind her that she's not as strong as she wishes she were, in some cases, though that hasn't happened lately.

Today is one such day; there have been flyers posted around the city for several days now, as it's always a good spectacle to watch trained martial artists in their element. The main event is a spar; it's of course not the only event taking place today. Everyone has a role, from the lower-ranked students breaking boards and answering questions (and making sure nobody gets too close), to the higher-ranks demonstrating techniques, escapes, and general badassery. It's kind of an impromptu open house, which helps bolster enrollment rates aside from being a big to-do.

The fighters for the spar, though... that part may surprise folks. Not that Itsuki's fazed by that part; that's far from her mind, right now. The person she's facing today is someone she likes to think she can call a friend, and that means Itsuki needs to put on a good show, for more than just the crowd she already knows will assemble. Has assembled; it's only a few minutes to showtime at this point. She's left Potpourri asleep in her room, thankfully undiscovered thus far, so she only has one thing on her mind right now.

[[Itsuki is slated to spar with Parley; that fight has a particular ending, which mandates that Itsuki may or may not be back at its end. She'll be around to mingle before things start, though. And there's plenty of time for questions and commentary.]]

Hey ya all! It was great meeting you all at the party last weekend, but it made me aware that there are a lot of talented teens in this town who aren't affiliated with anyone yet! (Also some real jerks from that Crookstone school, but forget about them for now.)
So I talked about it with Robin and Rae, and we decided to hold open auditions this Sunday for Venture's Teen Titans! Sign-up online or before auditions begin on Venture Island at 1:30 PM, Sunday!

[Posted to Parley's rumblr account. No association with Mystery Lass. If you look at older posts, it's all just more of her talking about her life like a normal teenage girl might do.]

Well things have certainly been busy for me. I haven't had a chance to update here since I moved to America! (Sorry readers if you thought I had been eaten by wolves.) I'm staying with some friends of the family, the Myoudouins, in Venture City. They own this big kinda Japanese style Dojo and are all really serious about martial arts, it's actually pretty cool. Apparently the Dojo Master was really tight with my dad back in the day. He has two sons, Itsuki and Satsuki. Satsuki is sick and I don't see him around very often, but they both seem really chill, so that's cool.

My room here is weird. It's got those rectangular mats covering the floor that I can't remember the name of, and a futon instead of a proper bed. I've done what I can, though.

[Included is a selfie of Parley in her room. You can see the tatami mat floor in a few places, but by now she's got it covered in stuff. Comic books, regular books, clothes, video games, and all the other detritus that a person in the 21st century comes with. The walls have been coated with posters, mostly of female characters from movies and games looking cool. The only thing that might seem unusual is the sword leaning against the wall (in a scabbard), next to a fencing mask.]

As weird as it is to say it, I'm looking forwards to the school year. I'm having fun, but I don't really know that many people here.

So far America is really weird though. I haven't seen a single bald eagle (Itsuki said he saw one the other day, but I do not believe him.), nor have I been involved in any gunfights or highway chases. Hollywood has much to answer for. I HAVE almost been hit by cars twice now, though, because they all drive on the wrong side of the road! I've been warned that it's Independence Day (Or as we call it back home, "Ungrateful Day" ^_^), and that everyone is going to be a little flag crazy today. Hopefully I won't accidentally order tea instead of coffee and get mobbed. Wish me luck!

Okay that's all for now. This is Parley the great, signing off!

INVITE TO THE PARTY:
[A. Audio and Visual on Omeganet. Text "Event" posting on Rumblr.]

"OH YEAHH guys and gals! We've kicked Dino butt, we've kicked Slade butt, and now, the Omega Spire is open and I'm ready to party like it's 2099! We got all the free pizza you can eat, and I installed a soda fountain with 42 varieties of flavor! We've got the dance floor, we've got the tunes, AND (for those of you who don't like to dance) we've got a Smash Cousins tournament on a 20-foot Ultra HD screen! (I call dibs on Burro Kong.) Oh, and bring a swim suit if you want, because the pool here is kickin'!

All the teen heroes better be here, ya hear me? And bring a friend. Doors open at 5pm.

Oh, and ya villains can stay at home."

((Note: Word gets around, so there's no reason non-supers couldn't hear about this party and crash it. As long as they don't cause trouble, Cyborg isn't throwing anyone out of the party for not being super enough.))

AT THE PARTY (ACTION):
((NOTE: These are not all threads with Cyborg. The assumption is that if you post at one of these locations, someone else at the party will reply. Also, feel free to request other spots.))

[A few weeks ago, there was a message sent to the Omegabase from Mystero, Master of the Mind, informing them that he was sending his daughter to Venture City to train with the Omegafriends in hopes of developing her as of yet dormant psychic powers.

Well, she's here.]

So, I guess Mystero told you what I'm doing here. What with Dr. Devious and the confusion of flying half way around the planet, I never really heard who agreed to help out.

I'm already getting antsy here. Any learnable skills you've got, I'll take a shot at learning them. If you're willing to teach them, that is.

[Tonight, a large crowd is lined up outside The Illumination Theatre, as is the case almost every Saturday evening. The posters outside advertise what's brought them all here; "The Mind-Bending Illusionist Who Twists Reality Before Your Eyes!" and "An Act Beyond Your Wildest Dreams!" as well as the marquee, which reads "BILL CIPHER: THE MASTER OF MENTAL MAGIC." The show is sold out, something which it usually has no difficulty accomplishing.
At quarter to six they're lead inside to the lobby, and then at six o'clock sharp, into the theatre proper.
At precisely 6:18 PM, the lights dim. The audience grows quiet, and finally the man himself, the one they've all come to see, steps out onto the stage.]


Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages, what you are about to experience are not ordinary feats of what you call "magic" or "illusion"! No pulling rabbits out of hats here, folks! Tonight, you will all be ENLIGHTENED! It's time to destroy the barrier of your mind! Repeat after me...
Triangulum, entangulum...
Veneforis dominus ventium...
Veneforis venetisarium!


[The captivated crowd does as they're told, repeating the phrase out loud.
"Triangulum, entangulum...
Veneforis dominus ventium...
Veneforis venetisarium!"

What none of them realize is the moment the last syllable escape their lips, their eyes begin to glow. They start chanting backwards.
But all they see is a bright flash of light, and suddenly, the entire theatre loses all color, turning to monochrome as Bill's triumphant laughter echoes throughout.
What follows is a performance that goes above and beyond the limits of what most people would consider humanly possible.

The highlights include the theatre itself becoming a forest, with trees, greenery, and what even looks to be mountains in the distance popping up from nothing. A deer walks out, and with only a twist of his finger, its teeth are pulled directly out of its mouth and float over to Bill. He hands the teeth to a child in the front row of the audience, who seems rather disgusted but mesmerized nonetheless. With another gesture the teeth are returned to the deer, in an action like time moving backwards.
He shoots a laser from his finger, blowing a large hole directly through someone's chest, yet somehow leaving them entirely unharmed, despite the person next to them being able to put their hand directly through their torso. He asks someone to think of their favorite cartoon character, and with a snap of his fingers that character appears beside them, as if they'd popped right out of the TV. He calls someone up to the stage and asks them to do an impression of their favorite celebrity, as they physically transform into who they're impersonating. He calls up someone else, and as they're standing on stage they are lifted into the air by a floating platform shaped like their own head.
He sets himself on fire, covering himself in burning blue flames as though he was completely fireproof, then grows to enormous size, towering over the enraptured audience. And for the grande finale...
A massive triangular portal appears behind him, shooting off sparks as its center fills with light. Out of the portal emerges dozens of fantastical creatures that fill the theatre, including a sasquatch, "Manotaurs", a brain monster, a pterodactyl, giant spiders, giant bats, gnomes, a "Gremloblin", a "Hide Behind", a "Gobblewonker", mermaids and mermen, a "Multi-Bear", and a masked monster made of candy... many of which get right up close and personal with the audience.
Tipping his hat to the crowd, Bill leaves with one last enthusiastic remark.]


REMEMBER! REALITY IS AN ILLUSION, THE UNIVERSE IS A HOLOGRAM, BUY GOLD, BYEEE!!!

[He enters the portal himself, vanishing.
There is another brilliant flash. The audience suddenly opens their eyes and gasps, as though they've just awoken from a trance, or a dream. Everything is gone, everyone is back to normal, and the world is in color again.
Seconds later, the room erupts with mass cheering and roaring, thunderous applause.
We thank you for coming out and hope you've enjoyed the show tonight. Should you feel so inclined, come have a chat with Mr. Cipher! He's enjoying an after-show drink at the theatre bar, and he absolutely loves talking to his fans.]

[Action, Myoudouin Dojo and surrounding areas, 3pm]

At seven AM, Parley had staggered in from her ten hour flight from London, dragged her various suitcases into the guest room they had leant her, and passed out on the bed for eight hours. Now, it's mid afternoon and she is awake once more. Time to explore her new home, and possibly even some of the surrounding neighborhoods. Surely nothing can go wrong on literally her first day in America!

[That evening, video.]


Parley is wearing a domino mask and a blue and grey uniform of some kind, and speaks with a bit of a British accent.

"Tadah! It's Mystery Lass!"

She gives the screen a self-effacing grin, "Okay, so it's a pretty lame name. I'm still working on it. But they gave me this neato communicator watch, so there's no way I could resist giving it a shot! Plus I slept all day after the plane ride and I'm kinda wired right now. Who else is out there?"
