[OOC][PLOT] The Fifth Thread of Planning for Arc 1 - Arrivals

[robkelk]

Since it's come up and the relevant data isn't all in one place, I have pulled together everything about the Senshi's arrival in the Metacontinuity, adding some things to make the whole internally consistent.

They should have arrived together, but the shock to Setsuna when her connection to the Time Gates was severed caused a disruption which split the party.

• Hotaru held onto Setsuna (and was the only one conscious for the scattering effect); she's been protecting Setsuna since they arrived, and Setsuna tooks weeks to go from unconscious to semi-conscious. They appeared... somewhere. Sailor Saturn is in "mama bear" mode, protecting Sailor Pluto while she recovers.
  
• The "Asteroid Senshi" metaphysically held onto each other, and ended up somewhere near L.A. Like Minako, they're busking to survive. Once they have enough cash for bus tickets, they're headed for the big city... but they can't get much cash over and above what it takes to survive wherever it is that they are.
  
• Mamoru tried to stay with both Usagi and Chibi-Usa, but could only keep a metaphysical hold of his daughter. Luna and Artemis "grabbed" Mamoru, while Diana "grabbed" Small Lady. They were sent to San Antonio or some place nearby.
  
• Haruka and Michiru stayed together because of their metaphysical bond, appearing in Kemptville - roughly 50 kilometers from Ottawa as the crow flies.
  
• Speaking of crows, Phobos and Deimos almost "held onto" Rei... but at the very last microsecond were dislodged. They ended up in the Glebe, about 3½ kilometers away from where the Sailor Team arrived and about 2¾ km from the Blossom apartments. This was good luck disguised as bad luck, since their presence there acted as a metaphysical beacon for the Osaka family (Naru etc.) to be deposited in the same area later, giving them a chance to re-establish the OSA-P jewelry store.
  
• The Sailor Team ended up in the Byward Market area, roughly 6 km away from the intended drop point for everyone in the church parking lot just down the road from the apartments on Blossom. Their story has already been told.
  

As for Mimi/Mimete, somebody with teleportation powers was messing with the Blossom group by teleporting the Witches Electric Warp into the building. If the teleport missed and the device ended up embedded in soil or bedrock, no big loss from that teleporter's point of view (which tells you something about that teleporter). Watching the displacees' and Rob's reactions from a distance was very educational. The rest of the Witches 5 are... somewhere, but not particularly near Ottawa or each other.
