"Hey everyone!!"

"Sup."

The two newest talents in Hololive arrived. Gura, Ina, and Amelia all just kinda stared at them. The newbies were taller than they expected.

Calliope Mori, the Reaper, as Emersyn had said before, looked very intense. Her skin was pale, almost pink looking in hue. She carried with her an absolutely massive scythe that made everyone in the room glad she wasn't their enemy. Ina did notice that there was something off about her, though.

Takanashi Kiara, the Phoenix, was as bright as a living thing could be. Maybe not literally bright, but everything about her exuded happiness and a care-free attitude. On her belt was a sword and shield that almost looked like a toy. However, something about the tools made them seem just as dangerous as Calliope's scythe.

"Hello, Ms. Mori and Ms. Takanashi," Emersyn said, bluntly. Her expression hadn't so much as twitched when the two arrived. It was incredible that someone could be so stoic in face of such mythical beings. Then again, she was powerful in her own right. Both her katana and words hit just as hard as any attack from anyone in that room.

"H-hi..." To everyone's surprise, Ina was the next one to greet the new members. All eyes fell on her and she quickly retreated behind the arm of the couch as best she could. Kiara wouldn't let her escape so easily. The Phoenix approached with rapid speed.

"Hey there! You are...Ina'nis right? You're a Priestess. I have never seen one so calm and collected. Normally they're all like, RAAH!" she threw her arms out to the sides of her in combination with her scream. Tiny embers scattered around the room, thankfully not lighting anything on fire in the process.

"Kusotori, I don't think this place is flame-proof. We don't want an accident right away," Calliope beat Emersyn to criticize Kiara's actions. Though, the words didn't sound hurtful.

"Oh sorry, right." Kiara backed away from the couch, letting the three girls on it breathe a sigh of relief.

"Um, my name is Gawr Gura. I'm probably the last Atlantean in the world," Gura introduced herself next. Kiara gazed off in thought for a moment.

"I've met a few Atlanteans before, but that was a long time ago. I guess that explains why I haven't seen any recently." Gura's mood soured slightly. She'd just gotten done grappling with her past, it was a little too soon to be thinking about it again.

"Hi, I'm Amelia Watson-"

"I know who you are," Calliope interrupted Amelia's introduction. The time traveler narrowed her eyes on the other girl. "You're the reason why we're here." She gestured to both herself and Kiara, who was now mindlessly wandering around the room looking at everything.

"So that's who you were always talking about," Emersyn mumbled. Calliope paid no attention to her.

"Now, I want your self-introduction to be more detailed than the other two. We need to know who you are, what you're doing here, how you got here, and why you're here." Calliope was concise with her demands. Amelia tried not to roll her eyes out of frustration.

"I'm Amelia Watson," she started back up again, "I'm a stranded time traveler from another timeline. I had an accident a few years ago and ended up here. I want to eventually go back home..." she trailed off near the end. Calliope didn't look satisfied with her answer. However, Kiara interjected before the Reaper could get a word out.

"So that's what that feeling was." Amelia and the rest of the girls on the couch jolted in fright when the Phoenix spoke so loudly from directly behind them. All three turned around and looked at her.

"What feeling?" Amelia asked in return.

"It was like I was being told someone new was here. Like I was in the presence of someone else. Honestly, it was kinda scary!" Kiara hugged herself, mocking the fright.
