Plot Mingle Network Post | UN: All.Might

[almightiness]

CITIZENS OF RIVERVIEW, THIS IS ALL MIGHT SPEAKING!!

[Yes buddy, everyone can tell just by that trumpet of mighty words. But after the rather energized and familiar sound, it dies down into something far more restrained and concerned; this is a serious matter, and it will be handled with utmost severity. As such, the man addresses the community at large from his hero-mode burner phone, as he tends to when needing to speak to a wider audience.]

As of recent months, the youth of Riverview had been in terrible danger — gone missing far too often, in fact, and at first I'd feared the creatures in the sky had been the potential suspect. Alas, when I leapt after the beasts and followed them to their living areas, I found no trace of those many children who had vanished...!

And now, to make matters worse... I believe even more people are starting to vanish from our streets.

Not simply children, but people of all ages and powered abilities...! Stolen away from right under our very noses. [His voice goes tense and tinged with worry, not like his usual characteristic, boisterous television-like persona, but something genuine and fraught with worry for his fellow man.] Please, feel free to use this space to report any missing persons — or share any information you may have with the general public. We need to figure out our numbers lost, and from there we can attempt to backtrack their steps and locate the reason behind this string of vanishings.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE, AND THE LONGER IT TAKES TO LOCATE THESE MISSING PERSONS, THE LESS CHANCE THEY HAVE AT BEING RESCUED SAFELY. RIVERVIEW! PLEASE BE CAREFUL AND TRY TO STAY TOGETHER IF POSSIBLE! THIS IS A TRUE CRISIS.

I will leave this line open through the coming days, in case any new reports or concerns come in!

[OOC: I'll be replying around as All Might, but this is a general mingle network post for anyone who wants to point out so-and-so's missing, or have information to share but don't necessarily want to make a post for it! I figured it'd be nice to have a place where missing characters can be noted and fretted over. Have at it, guys, and threadjack to your heart's content. I'll also leave it open for future-dated stuff as well if you need it! Basically, feel free to use this however.]

[Magnus is new, this is the first he's heard of this!! Suddenly things are dire!?]

Wait.

Wait.

Taako wasn't in the house this morning.

I'm not, like, his mom, but...

[UHHHHHHHH. IS IT PANIC TIME???]

@heirwolf

[lykou]

Oh. I know him. Are you sure he didn't just go over to someone else's place? He knows magic, I don't think anyone could kidnap him.

[armcollector]

Yeah, but what if the kidnapper knows magic too? And the guy said "all ages and powered abilities"!! I guess he could be at someone else's place, but he didn't say anything about that.

[Magnus is like a dog, if you don't say bye he will whine at the door until you come home.]

[lykou]

Oh. I guess so?

[ He can't really fathom that but he's not about to argue; if this person is worried about a mutual friend, that's enough for him. ]

I can help you look for him, if you want. I'm Ryan, by the way.

[armcollector]

Hail and well met -- I'm Magnus. I'm sorta new, so I don't really know where else he'd be if he's, uh, just out somewhere.

@lightemup

[umbrastaff]

I just found the Umbrastaff in a cafe.

[armcollector]

Wait, for real? Like, just lying there?? Are you sure it wasn't a different vorebrella??

[umbrastaff]

I know my own stupid creation, Magnus.

[almightiness]

[Ah — oh hey, Magnus. You probably don't remember him, but he's a fellow muscular bro.

And also, he's a little concerned now.]

Taako hasn't been heard from? Perhaps you should try his network device — call it and see if he picks up! I would hate for us to let our imaginations grow too wild if a call sets our minds at ease...!

[armcollector]

Thanks for reminding me what phones do!!!

[Brb calling Taako.]

Uh-- it went to the... mailbox. Thing.

[almightiness]

... Ah, I see...!

[This is not shaping up to be Good. But he tries to sound positive anyway.]

How consistent is he with answering calls?

Are there any descriptions of the people who are missing? Or any of their belongings? I might be able to help sniff them out.

[almightiness]

[You're so lucky he got a new phone that actually fits his fingers, all of his old texts were in caps lock with typos.]

I've collected a few transcripts from missing posters I've acquired from parents and worried friends — though I'm afraid most of them are from older vanishings. But I'm more than happy to send them to you!

[lykou]

Yes, I would appreciate.

And anyone who wants to bring me a belonging, like a shirt or something they would have kept close to them a lot... it wasn't a turn of phrase, when I said I could sniff them out. I meant literally.

Just so you know.

[almightiness]

I'm sure we can arrange such a thing for you, my good man!!

This scent ability is a quirk or power of yours? It's certainly going to be handy.

I'll take copies of the notes you have if it's okay. I'm Alex Reagan for the investigative news service. [And she just caught the person who released the virus, so of course she thinks this is right up her alley.]

[almightiness]

Absolutely, Miss Reagan, I'm more than happy to pass along what I have.

Unfortunately, most of what I have are in regards to earlier missing persons, but I hope they can be of use to you — if anything, it will at least help spread awareness of the gravity of the situation!

[11calls]

How far back do these disappearances go?

[almightiness]

I believe over a month at the very least — I started trying to correlate them with the strange dinosaur creatures attacking the locals. It could have been further back without us even recognizing it, especially since many of the children had vanished near the wall.

text | un:breq

[breqintopieces]

Do you have any estimates on numbers? The Perimeter Guard was searching outside the walls after the children disappeared, but if there are more, there has to be a trail by now-- physical or not.

It's a matter of finding it, of course.

[That's her polite way of not commenting on someone actually riding one of those pterodactyls.]

text

[almightiness]

Unfortunately, not at this time. So many people within the walls travel as they please and are adults, so it makes it harder to determine compared to the poor children who have gone missing in the past. Two went missing on the 8th that I'm aware of, and recently it's only gotten worse.

There is a young fellow with a strong sense of smell offering his services; perhaps there's something we can find out there with it.

[breqintopieces]

I would not be opposed to a trip beyond the walls for clues. I am not a tracker the way he might be, but I may be able to provide some security while out beyond the wall.

It may be worth petitioning the government to put up cameras on the lengths of the walls. Perhaps not fruitful, but an option.

[almightiness]

Cameras are an excellent idea! And something I would be more than happy suggesting to the government of Riverview. Would you like to go out and try to find anything left behind by the perpetrators? I'd be more than happy to assist any way I can.

Alexander Lightwood. Tall, dark hair, covered in runes like mine. [ Jace shows everyone the black tattoo-like marks on his arms. In the background, when he shifts the phone back to his face, everyone can see the sky, the city, and glimpses of the river over one shoulder. ] I tracked him to the river, but from here there is nothing. I know he's alive.

[ The panic he feels is carefully veiled. Veiled, but not completely hidden. Jace doesn't have that kind of control over his emotions. Not when they involve Alec.

He's already dressed for hunting, armed with his short blades, knives, and his stele.]

Alec disappeared outside of the LUX. If you know anything....please. I have to find him.

[almightiness]

[All Might listens carefully to every word, storing it away in the event that he finds this missing young man.]

Runes — I see. I'll keep an eye out for him when I perform my patrols. What sort of abilities might he have? Would he leave any traces of his presence if he were to have fought assailants?
