Welcome to Haven:

What: It's moving day for everyone.
Where: Haven MagLev Train/Haven Train Station and then Jerry's Info Booth for the Newbies.
When: 04/28 - Morning
Warnings: There will be swearing, probably mentions of violence. Will update as needed.

This FluxOver starts a lot differently than the others. For starters, everyone and we mean everyone is waking up on a train. No one's waking up in their homes. The first sound anyone hears isn't an alarm clock. It's the steady hum and squeal of the MagLev train just barely skimming it's rails as it makes a turn towards the Haven Train Station and then a deep, gravely, lightly accented male voice saying:

"Haven Train Station! Last stop! Everyone off!


And then the grinding of brakes as the train slows down to a bit of a harsh stop. With so many people stuffed into the train like sardines, it's probably hot and crowded, and everyone wants off. It's also very likely you're going to wake up leaning on someone. Do you know them? Are they a stranger? Let's hope you didn't drool while you were sleeping, or snore too loudly.

When the doors open, the heat probably gets a bit worse and the crowd is very eager to get off the train. Jostling and bumping, it seems as though no one cares who they smack into, they just want off. Since it's the last stop, it's probably best you depart, too. Should you choose to stick on the train, you'll find that while it does depart the Haven Train Station eventually, it just goes through a foggy area that seems to lead right back to the Haven Train Station. It'll keep doing so until you depart the train. Once the last person is off, the train will roll away and disappear in the distance.


For all the newcomers, you'll feel an impulse to go right to the very ramshackle-looking information booth, where a gentleman named Jerry has your information packet. For everyone else, your phones will start buzzing and a voice will start giving you directions, leading you back home and we're sorry to say it, but your homes have taken on the external appearance of everything else around them. Pieced together, rusty. Built more for survival and less for visual appeal.

Again; externally. Internally, you'll find that nothings changed and home is just as you remember it. And for anyone that got anything for FluxMas, you'll find your stuff waiting for you in the kitchen of your homes. Unless it's a vehicle. You'll find the keys to that in your pockets, shortly after stepping into your houses.

Settle in. Explore. Find your friends.

Welcome to Haven.

Tandy sniffed a little when she realized that she was crying and what made it worse was that the two of them had noticed. She was quick to dash away any other tears that might trail after the one that Zorro tried to banish, clearing her throat a bit while looking away. She knew Ty well enough to know that he would feel guilty about her crying even though it wasn't his fault.

"I'm sorry," She licked her lips, almost ready to step away, to put some distance between them as she felt awkward but she stayed still when Ty's arms wrapped around her to hold them both while she held Zorro.

"I'm okay, I just...had a moment looking at you." Her voice softened as she leaned her head against his shoulder. "I didn't realize how much I missed you. I mean, I knew I did but not how badly."

Or that it would stagger her.

"Don't be," he coaxed when Tandy apologized. "I meant it when I told you before; I couldn't imagine my life without you." Meaning, Ty did't know how she had managed so well without him after everything they'd been through where he completely understood her having a moment.

His arms held them both snug and Zorro struggled, attempting to get a few more licks of Tandy's face before teleporting out from her hold. He reappeared right by her foot and used a back paw to randomly scratch behind an ear before scampering off toward the kitchen. They could hear him lapping up some water seconds after relocating.

"I mean I missed you just those minutes that we weren't together on the bus anymore," he attempted to assure her before dipping his head, moving his face toward the crook of her neck as hers rested on his shoulder.

There were times when Tandy hadn't really believed that he was better off with her in his life but the last bit of what they had gone through had made her start to realize the truth that she couldn't imagine her life without him either. That maybe he was actually the same.

Having Zorro blip out of her arms meant they were free to slide around Ty's waist as she returned the favor of holding on and tightly. Almost like she was afraid that he would disappear again if she let go. Not that she remembered letting go while they were on the bus.

He would feel her face soften with a smile at his words before he shifted closer and they spent the next couple of minutes just clinging to each other.
