NOTE: This thread has now been split and all posts which were completely OOC and not referred to by any IC posts have been removed to a separate thread. All IC posts, joint IC/OOC posts and OOC posts which fit directly into the IC continuity are still here. In future people can used the OOC thread for OOC posts, though small OOC notes in the IC thread are still perfectly OK.
Repeat, this is the In Character thread, used for the active roleplay. For backup info, see the OOC or info threads. _________________ - Ada (site founder - TezukaInEnglish.com)

To get started, I'd say all we really need is to settle on a time and place, right? Having a specific setting always helps get things like this going. Given the list of characters we have going, and themes of the Tezuka universe in general, what would people think of using as our starting point the announcement of a scientific team having discovered something mysterious in a small Japanese town, with all sorts of rumors circulating around, that it is an alien ship, an ancient archaological dig, a rare medical specimine, or evidence of a secret military research base. That would give us a good setting, and I think every single character in the Tezuka universe can come up with a good excuse to show up at such a location. We can start with some simple introductory encounters in a local hotel or restaurant, then let the plot grow. Sound good to people?
I'm open to other ideas if people have them. |
O.K., so let's get started:
PLACE: YAMAGO HOTEL, ASHURABIKI
TIME: 7:00 AM
Fall has just begun. A cloudy day, quite cold.
At the hall, Lamp is sitting. He seems to be waiting for someone. He's chewing gum becuse he managed to give up smoking. He thinks about his wife: "Is she doing well? Lord, I leave her for 24 hours and I'm already worried"... |

It was a day just like any other for Black Jack. Wake up. Stretch. Shower. Shave. Brush teeth. Dress. Gingerly step over Largo. Get the newspaper. It promised to be a busy day today, and Pinoco wasn't up yet, apparently.
He crept to her room and lightly tapped on her door.
"Pinoco, are you up yet?" _________________ Nil Desperadum |

(I'm assuming we're keeping somewhat of a TV-similar continuity, since Largo is alive? Any objections...?)
On the other side of the door, a frantic squeal followed by several sequential thuds returned as an answer. The door then swung open, an extremely perturbed Pinoco standing in its place. Her hair was in disarray, sans ribbons, and the glare on her face cast a shadow upon the entire hallway.
"LARGO!" She bellowed down the hall, hopping past Sensei and waving her short arm in a threatening manner. "YOU WOKE UP SHENSHEI BEFORE ME!" Her scolding faded down the hallway, "How am I supposed to have breakfast ready before work if he is awake before I am even dressed?!"
It needn't be said that Largo was probably well-aware of this fact. Consider it a secret favor to the doctor... |

"Speaking of," replied the doctor cooly, "we'll get breakfast on the road, so go ahead and get dressed, unless that IS a new dress of yours." _________________ Nil Desperadum |

| Pinoco froze, spun around, and wailed at the top of her lungs, throwing her arms around her tiny frame in a fit of modesty. "SHENSHEI DON'T LOOK!!!" Her face turned a bright pink, "I'm indeschent!" |

Black Jack's lips curled into a wry grin. "Come on, Pinoco. I made you, remember? Now get dressed. We have a lot to do today." _________________ Nil Desperadum |

Before continuing, I have to say that I want to make Lamp a good-bad guy like his incarnation of Chief Inspector Tomobiki on Black Jack: a man with a good, kind heart after all, but very bad-tempred, selfish, rude and unpolite.
Do you like the idea? |

OOC: I recommend that when people are posting out of character, things like the question about Lamp, you mark your posts OOC (out of chararacter) so people can keep it straight. Just a general online roleplay protocol that works well. Alternately, some roleplays like to have a separate OOC thread for comments like this, separate from the IC (in character) thread. What would you all think of that idea?
I'm having fun reading so far, and look forward to jumping in as Rock in a few weeks, though I'll warn you, I may have him show up in disguise as someone else... _________________ - Ada (site founder - TezukaInEnglish.com) |

OOC: Sounds good to me! I can't wait for this to really get off the ground. I guess it's my turn, huh?
IC:
Pinoco blinked, and lowered her arms back to her sides as she looking on curiously. "A lot of work to do? Like what?" She hadn't recalled Sensei telling her of any traveling expeditions, and she certainly wasn't prepared to handle any guests...not at the moment, anyway. |

Black Jack's face was calm, but a hint of concern lay behind his scarred face and blazing eyes.
"Something came up after you went to bed last night. I think a friend may be in trouble, but I have to make sure first." He walked down the hall and opened the door to the clinic. "I'm not sure how long we'll be gone, so pack a change of clothes."
He stepped into the clinic and fetched his bag from the table. He opened the decontamination chamber and removed a tray full of shiny, sterile tools. He then put on a pair of gloves and placed each one in his surgical kit, then loaded it with disinfectants, sutures, gloves, patches, and other essentials of his feild kit. Finally, he opened a small case and placed four scalpels inside, then placed the scalpels inside his coat. Just in case. _________________ Nil Desperadum |

| Pinoco knew that look on her Sensei's face all too well, and she didn't like it one bit. But she knew better than to protest or press the doctor for any further information. She gave an exaggerated sigh, and turned back to her bedroom, "You could at least tell me what the climate will be, sheesh." |

While Pinoco dressed, Black Jack returned to the office and set his bag on the desk. A small but neat pile of scribbled phone numbers and names lay beside the phone. He searched through the names of various celebrities and important figures until one of them caught his eye. He studied the paper slip for a moment and slipped it into his coat pocket. He checked his address book, then tied his overcoat around his neck.
"Just hope this doesn't get me into too much trouble." he muttered to himself. _________________ Nil Desperadum |
