Official Opening!

[extinctmods]

Who: All the lovely test visitors of Jurassic Park and your very own host John Hammond!
When: July 21st in the morning hours after the first helicopters with guests arrive
Where: All over the safe area - check the subheaders for specific location options or make your own subheader if something you'd like is not yet included!
What: Getting settled! Hammond holds a welcome speech and you can get a tour through the Visitor Center. Once that is done, why don't you choose a room or check out the exhibits and café? A new world of wonders awaits and you're just getting started!

It's a beautiful but slightly nebulous day on Isla Nublar. You have arrived this morning and didn't get much of a chance to check out the place yet. Still, one thing is clear... Dinosaurs are a new one. That herd of brachiosaurs you spotted walking in the distance is pretty impressive.

This is a mingle-log that you can use to tag around with as many people as you want. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed all comments here are fair game to reply to with all characters - they are all in close proximity to each other after all. If you have any specific preferences for your threads, state them in your subject line (e.g. if your thread is closed to a specific character or is set at a very specific time or if you don't want thread-jacking once a thread has started).

The log also gives a chance for characters to talk to John Hammond for a while - he might not be overly helpful, but go ahead and meet your host!

[ Mikami gives a nod. He has to admit, he could also do without ever getting into one of these helicopters, but it's not like that matters. ]

That's good. You seemed shocked.

[big_blank]

I guess you could say we're just a little out of our element.

[Shiro nods as well. She's got too much hair to deal with this climate.]

[inordertobelieve]

I suppose that can be said about most of us to an extend.

[ His eyes very quickly dart over to the dinosaur heads again. And even if it weren't for them, there is no real way anybody coming here would have known what to expect. ]

[big_blank]

At least in regards to those things, that probably goes without saying.

[This said as he follows Mikami's gaze.]

[little_blank]

[Shiro also looks, tilting her head slightly as they all study the dinosaurs in the distance.]

...We have to go forward?

[This is said softly, reluctantly. It'd be nice to just hop back in the chopper, but...]

[inordertobelieve]

[ Mikami nods at the little girl. ]

That appears to be the only way to find out more.

[ He shares the sentiment of just wanting to go home, even though his reasons are different, but it's not like that's an option now. ]

[Sora shifts his hand to drop lightly on Shiro's head.]

At least it will get us out of the sun.

[little_blank]

[Staring back at Mikami, her head bobs when Sora puts his hand on top. But she nods. Better to get out of the sun because they're frying and melting here. And maybe...get some more info on this place. Because that's important, too.]
