The angel had filled him in on what he missed while he stepped away. What Junior apparently said he did earn a risen brow from the black and white youth, and he went on to clear up the misunderstandings; Essentially giving [i]his[/i] testimony about what happened. As much as he didn't want to bear any ill will towards the young prince, it was starting to look like he was desperate to absolve himself of [i]all[/i] the blame. Omori would have to confront him about that later. He noticed Geralt passing by, and once he gave the two a nod, the boy nodded back in response as if he understood the intent. Soon enough, they finally made it to dry land. Once the Tinkerslug pulled up enough to port, Omori gathered his things and climbed off...rather quickly. Sure, he wasn't anxious about being at sea as he initially was, but he was still afraid of drowning. He was lucky the others didn't make him [i]walk the plank[/i] into a watery grave or something. The boy didn't know anyone from the other team, and unfortunately didn't see any familiar faces either, so he stuck by (or rather behind) Pit for the most part. Omori visibly flinched as the screams of the damned signaled for everyone to turn their attention towards Peach. The princess apologized, then soon proposed a way for everyone to introduce themselves. ...Oh great. He'll have to figure out a way to say hello in more than two words. Maybe he'll wait till most of the rest went. Of course, their leader went first. The mention of a Mushroom Kingdom had Omori curious. What kind of subject did she have? Were they like, giant mushrooms with legs? Or were they more human looking like her? Maybe something inbetween? Did they have mushroom pets? A mushroom cat would be cute. And she was into sports too! Mari used to play softball, maybe he could introduce her to Peach when they find and free her? Big Band took his turn after her, a detective turned fighter against something called the Skullgirl. His demeanor and choice of music gave Omori "Noir Detective" vibes. He guessed that the instruments deployed acted as his weapons. Nothing out of the ordinary in his eyes. Then there was...hey, this guy looked like those merchants from the Trade Guild. Except, a mechanic, and not a merchant. [i]And[/i] he built the girl, Poppi, who introduced herself after? Omori was already impressed! Maybe he could learn a thing or too from Tora. He had already met Nadia long before his team left Alcamoth, so the boy wasn't as phased by her flashy entry. Or her puns. Then there was another kid who spoke up with a barrage of questions. At least he wasn't the only one who was curious about Ms.Fortunes abilities, but not [i]that[/i] much. When Raz realized he drew everyone's attention to him, the psychic decided to introduce himself next. A government agent, acrobat, and for some reason water is deadly to him. Omori tilted his head. Maybe he just couldn't swim? He understood where Raz was coming from either way, water can be dangerous. The monochrome boy overheard Junior's comment, and idly shook his head. He knew better than to underestimate someone that can take a peak into his brain. ...For some reason, he didn't feel too comfortable with that idea- Aaand of course Junior made another jab at [i]him[/i]. As much as Omori would glance away out of shame, at this rate he was getting sick of that puntable-looking brat. The others knew he made a mistake! [i]HE[/i] knew he made a mistake! Must he keep being so persistent in making him out to be some...thing?! ...You know what? No. He wasn't going to take this any longer. [b][color=dcdcdc]"At least I didn't keep trying to make a girl's ears bleed with my pet circus seal and crack her spine. If you seriously have some problem with me, whine about it later."[/color][/b] The boy deadpanned back out of spite. If Junior wanted to argue with him so badly, then by all means, he'll be ready this time! For now, they had to get through this long-winded meet and greet before souring the mood [i]again[/i]. The royal pain-in-the-butt seemed to agree, with how quickly he changed the subject back on the next person to speak. [s]Wuss.[/s] Red was a tried and true superhero, part of a large team that defended their home from space-bad guys. He even apologized for keeping his identity a secret to them. Omori shrugged in response. They all had their secrets. He only hoped Sunny would stay alive long enough for Omori and him to reunite. He didn't quite understand their situation yet. But if he really was feeling what his original self was, then that was a good sign, all things considered. The boy would have to worry about how the others will react and all when the time comes. Then there was Roxas. Who was a former member of some organization apparently everyone else had run into before. Omori didn't, so the only response the other boy got was a confused head tilt. Roxas continued on to explain that Organization XIII was his enemy now, and that he needed to figure out their intentions and possibly stop them. He was...looking for his friends too. Omori's blank expression softened a little. Hopefully he could be there, stronger even, to help him fight the Organization, if it came down to that. Another duo took their turn. A dancer who could wield a dagger, and a thief. Their introductions were short, sweet, and to the point. Ace Cadet was a monster hunter with an aversion to magic. That made Omori wonder, could his skills be considered [i]some[/i] form of magic? Something like Sad Poem, sure, but he saw himself as more of a melee fighter than a mage. Another princess spoke up after Ace, Midna. Omori silently noted a "Mirror of twilight" and the Twilight Realm itself as stuff to look out for. As long as no one made physical contact with either, they should be fine, right? She made a little show out of her powers, then called the Koopa Troop up to talk next. Ah, more royalty. At least Bowser seemed cool [s]in comparison to his kid[/s], and even took pride in being a classic bad guy. Junior was basically in the same boat as Tora, except he built his clown car instead of an AI. And apparently, he could make portals. Omori could help sighing in relief when the prince said he was going to make one back to Alcamoth. He did NOT want to go back near the water a second time. Pets aside, he already met Kamek first, the magic specialist of the group. The device she showed off, plus the mention of Peach being able to undo spirit fusion was definitely something to keep in mind. And lastly, Rika, the walking blitzkrieg. After them was...Oh. [i]More[/i] royalty. A queen bee in the most literal sense. Sectonia, Bowser, Midna, and Peach. All different shades of what a ruler should be. They should form a club. Sectonia herself seemed to be the most...authentic? Of them, for the lack of a better term? Then there was their main healer, Blazermate, and another, more business-oriented robot. With a [i]drill.[/i] Most of Susie's business jargon went over Omori's head, but he did get the gist of it. Well...he thought he did. Then Miss High-and-Mighty stepped up to boast and act like [i]she[/i] was leader. Closest thing to royalty he guessed. Personally, Omori preferred Peach, but he wasn't stupid enough to snark at someone who could break his bones. Maybe when he gets strong enough, he could take Karin on in a 1v1 fight. Maybe not martial arts like she may have hoped, but...hm... Guess he could approach Sakura about it later, with her being Karin's rival. Atleast she seemed more humbler than the blonde. And Geralt? He was pretty cool too. There was a ghost of a smile when Pit stepped up after Geralt. The goddess he mentioned, Palutena, Omori would have to keep an eye out for her too, for the angel's sake. He'd probably get along with Kel and Hero the most with that infectious optimism. But it felt better to have a new friend here as well. He finally spoke up again soon as it was his turn to introduce himself. The black and white, pajama-clad boy quietly set his stuff aside and climb up onto the bench. He looked around Pit's age. [b][color=dcdcdc]"My name is Omori. Admittedly, I'm not as strong or...spectacular as everyone else here. I've only been with my team for a short amount of time, and already some of them are probably considering kicking me out. Long story."[/color][/b] He dryly chuckled, crossing his arms. [b][color=dcdcdc]"I'm just someone trying to find his friends too, and his sister. One of them already went missing some point before all of us got separated. It's hard to explain what I [i]can[/i] do, but I'll try my best. Back where I'm from, emotions play a key role in how we fight."[/color][/b] Omori pulled out his journal and flipped to a page where he had sketched out a chart, one of the things he worked on while everyone talked with Annetta. It took him a bit to recreate the one Hero gave him, but he made it work. He held it up for everyone to see.

Happiness, sadness, and anger all have their own strengths and weaknesses, so you gotta keep in mind which ones to best utilize against what. [i]And[/i] to not let said emotions get to your head [i]too[/i] much. Price of power and all, speaking from experience."[/color][/b] He explained. [b][color=dcdcdc]"You can also take advantage your enemy's emotions with the right attacks. Though, I'm not sure how much of Headspace made it into this place for that to work right. Might just be exclusive to me now."[/color][/b] Omori shrugged, pocketing his book for now. [b][color=dcdcdc]"I'm also experienced with melee weapons, specifically smaller blades like knives, if you couldn't tell by my...growing collection, over here..."[/color][/b] The black and white boy's eyes trailed over to his other weapons, then snapped back to the others. [b][color=dcdcdc]"I know I don't look like much, but I can assure you. I don't go down easily. Not without a fight."[/color][/b] For a moment, it looked like the corner of Omori's mouth quirked up. [b][color=dcdcdc]"I also like grape soda."[/color][/b] And with that, he sat back down.
