An android? Well, we don't see too many androids around here. Unfortunately, I'm afraid this isn't a dream. The amnesia is also expected, at least to those of us already here.

This is Memento Eden, and about the only thing I can assure you of at the moment is that you're not the only one in this predicament.

(sorry for the delay) [1/2]

[lights_legacy]

[Surprised X is surprised, because how the heck did he appear there without being detected. Systems disorientation, maybe? But his buster doesn't come up -- after all, it's a human...and so far, he doesn't appear hostile.]

[2/2]

[lights_legacy]

[he lets the new guy's words sink in before replying.]

Do you know how we got here?

[fadetonigredo]

Exactly? No. The closest we have is information on a pair of gods, but how or even why we're here remains a mystery.

[captured_maiden]

A-an android?

... are you all right? *she confused but concerned!*

[lights_legacy]

[This Megaman is pretty baffled as well, lil' lady.]

I think so. Who are you?

s-sorry for the epic delay

[captured_maiden]

I... my name is Fiona. I'm sorry that you're in this situation.

Oh, pshaw. I *invented* epic delays. Don't worry about it. ^^

[lights_legacy]

[and please excuse my plotting timeline liberties.]

It's okay. I heard about the island from some of the people here. It doesn't sound so bad apart from our being unable to leave.

I'm X. [extends his white glovish hand for a shake; it's big enough to engulf Fiona's]

[sore_feet_man]

A machine man, huh...

*walks in the woods often, X probably heard him coming easily enough* Hey there, welcome to the island. You must be confused, so I won't overwhelm you with too many facts right away; for the time being, I can tell you that this isn't a dream.

[lights_legacy]

(Once he registers the new presence as that of a human, X stands passively where he is. When told this isn't a dream, he simply nods.]

What else can you tell me?

[sore_feet_man]

Mm... Everyone experiences amnesia when they first come here, but you'll regain your memories back slowly over time.

It's best to look forward to this as a new phase in your life. Find a job, make friends, and you'll be on the right track. Speaking of which, my name is Ginko. *a small friendly smile* I teach science at the local school.

A friendly smile right back; see icon.

[lights_legacy]

I'm X. [extends large white hand for a shakey-shake.] I'm glad to meet you, Ginko.

[Terra had been flying around in the forest in her Esper form; she quickly changes back when she notices someone else.]

Ah... hello? Are you okay?

[lights_legacy]

[Diceroll says X failed to notice Terra's shift. By now, he's not particularly alarmed when a new human appears...but he does remain somewhat pensive. Maybe he's disoriented still?]

I'm fine.

[allnaturalmagic]

You're a new arrival, aren't you?

[lights_legacy]

Yeah...it looks that way. Who are you?
