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!

[Domri somehow catches that through his babbling and spins around to reply, eyes wide with excitement and a huge grin on his face.]

Aren't you!? Look at them! They're huge! Just imagine what they'd be like in a city! They could smash whole buildings!

[He seems even more excited at that last part, if that's even possible.]

.....

[He lifts his hand from his luggage handle, scrubbing it through his hair. This guy's serious. ...and obviously someone who's watched too many kaijū movies. Sora's never much been a fan of those himself, but whatever. He waves his hand in almost a dismissive gesture.]

Not my thing. I'd rather be back home. ...I'd really hope those things didn't try to smash any buildings we were in, either.

[radeonthecity]

This is way more exciting than anything back home! And if you're dumb enough to stay in a building that's being smashed you deserve what you get!

[Sora shrugs, but he'll agree to that much at least.]

No arguments there.

[radeonthecity]

[Domri turns back to the brachiosaurs, still grinning.]

Why aren't you more excited? These are great!

[big_blank]

It's too hot and bright out here. We've been flying for hours. I just want to collapse in a dark room. ...preferably mine. Back home.

[radeonthecity]

[He glances over his shoulder at Sora with something of a "what's wrong with you?" look.]

We've spent forever cooped up inside! Being outside's way better than staying inside some more!

[He's too busy trying to shield his face with an arm to care. Besides, you're talking to a guy who spends almost 24/7 indoors, Domri.]

Nggggh...

[radeonthecity]

What, are you a vampire or something? Do you get sunburned easily?

[big_blank]

No. Dunno, probably. This is the farthest I've been away from home, and the longest I've been out of my room in a while...

[radeonthecity]

Well don't worry about it. If you get burned just tough it out and keep going outside and in a couple days you'll start to tan. Then you'll be all set.

[He looks at his wrist briefly.]

But I don't really want a tan...
