Official Opening!

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!

[There's a sum total of zero things that are subtle about the way Masaomi perks up when he looks over and spots Sam. Even better, she thinks he's funny. This is clearly a sign.]

Me? [He grins, chattering away at a mile a minute.]

I came for the thrill of adventure! The crunch of foreign soil under my feet! The wonders of being pampered in ultimate luxury! And on this glorious journey, I vowed that I'd save all the damsels in distress. [He forms a fist and holds it over his heart. Any solemnity this might have had is immediately ruined by the derpy smile on his face and the fact that he's still holding a bowl of pudding.]

So are you a damsel in distress?

cinematography: (one more take for sound)

[Oh, goodness. Even as Sam places a hand to her forehead and sighs dramatically, she's trying to place his age.] The paperwork monster is coming for me! I know it'll be useful later, but notes and transcriptions are my least favorite part of filmmaking. [She drops the theatrics for a grin.] The thrill of adventure and the crunch of foreign soil are way better.
masaka: (Oh em gee)

[He bursts into delighted laughter, genuinely surprised that she's actually joking back. Rejection is usually the overwhelming response he gets. ...For good reason.]

The fiend! I'll slay the paperwork monster for you any day! It'll be torn to shreds when faced against my cutting wit and sharp comebacks!

[As part of a very helpful demonstration of purported awesome, Masaomi holds his spoon up high like a saber then bows with a flourish. He might have spilled a little bit of pudding on the ground as he does all that, woops.]

Masaomi Kida at your service!

[She's grinning at that act, though her gaze does down to follow the fallen pudding.] Sam Nishimura - sorry, Nishimura Sam. [She's spent too long in the US and England to remember right away to switch her name order around. At least correcting herself reminds her to bow in her chair rather than extending a hand.] Are you serious about facing the monster? Because I probably could use an intern.

[She'd put zero thought into getting some help with her film beyond getting interviews, but it could be interesting, having someone to show the ropes and boss around for a change instead of being on the other end.]
masaka: (I can show you the world)

Mrr, I accidentally had him give his name in Western order, sorry about that!!

For you?

[Masaomi continues beaming as he straightens up; it's obvious he hasn't noticed the pudding on the floor yet.]

Anything!
cinematography: (that was perfect! let's do it again)

all good, that was my comprehension fail!

[She chuckles.] Careful, I'm gonna hold you to that.
