Jump In Crossover RP!

Graydan nodded before stretching, standing in one place was starting to get to them, "So uh, I know we all just met and everything but do y'all want to keep walking? Maybe we'll find something?" They asked looking back and forth between Mike and Beetlejuice

Graydan rubbed the back of their neck watching Mike take the M&Ms and thought for a minute, "Forwards probably safer? You can't go wrong with just going forward right?"

(you know i was recently having this like... nostalgia for these jump in random crossovers i used to do back on the old forums....i might hop in here sometime if i can decide on a character. any guidelines besides just listing the character and the media they're from?)

Beetlejuice blinked back to attention, following after the boys, lazily floating a few feet off the ground, swiping a spider off the ground and watching it crawl across his fingers with a happy hum.

(alright... i've thought a good deal about who to bring in here, i'm still having trouble deciding but my heart keeps leading me to this guy, even though i don't know if i can do him justice. I'm gonna start by playing Ranpo Edogawa from Bungou Stray Dogs. in that series, characters are based on/named after authors, and they have special abilities -- though his 'ability' is just that he's really, really smart (in some ways) and good at solving mysteries/puzzles. Way smarter than me, so playing him should be interesting, but he's a lot of fun. Most of the main characters, including him, are Japanese, but... i headcanon that he knows and speaks English pretty well, and even if he didn't, a bunch of characters from different worlds have all been thrown together so it's not out of the question that some weird language 'magic' or something where everyone is mutually intelligible could be going on. Okay, with all that said, let me give this a go)

Ranpo Edogawa awoke with a headache. "Ow." He rubbed his temples. Did I hit it on something? The man looked around. It wasn't his room, nor anywhere in the Agency offices; he was outside. This town didn't look like anywhere near Yokohama. Completely foreign. Did someone's ability send me here? he wondered. It was completely different than being trapped in the mysteries that his dear friend Poe had written for him.

Not a problem. Stuck in a foreign place...no idea where his friends and colleagues were...no memory of what would have sent him here...nope, still not a problem. I'm the greatest detective in the world, after all. Ranpo got to his feet, brushing the dust from his clothes. When he activated his ability, Super Deduction, he would figure the whole situation out in no time. He could trigger the ability by slipping on the pair of glasses he kept in his pocket. They weren't in his shirt pocket, where he normally kept them, so he began fishing around every other pocket on his clothes. So frustrated he was, and so focused on finding them, he didn't hear the footsteps and voices of the rest of the group approaching him.

(also, here's a visual aid lol:

Graydan let out a sigh at the thought of monsters, it wasn't like they couldn't protect themselves but fighting was very exhausting.
They were about to explain about their keyblade when they noticed someone else on the path, quickly they dropped into a fighting stance and their keyblade, the WayWard Wind, a giant key that looked like it was shaped like a bird feather, appeared in their hand.
"Who's there?!" They shouted

Graydan lowered their keyblade but kept it by their side while looking Ranpo over
'He doesnt seem like much of a threat....nor does he look like a heartless either....' they thought
"I'm Graydan," they replied, "I just met these two also" they pointed towards Beetlejuice and Mike
If they were honest they were much of a talker so they waited for the others to introduce themselves

Graydan chuckled a little at Mike's threat of throwing the M&Ms, too be fair he didn't seem to have a weapon anyway.
Tilting their head and looking down at their keyblade they said, "Well it is rather large but it's great for defeating the heartless where I come from" they explained with a grin
"Is detective guy joining us too?" Graydan asked

(and now...we wait, lol. in the meantime, xiv, do you happen to have a reference or description for graydan somewhere? i know he’s an oc, and if you don’t have any then that’s fine - just curious aha)

(Graydan- 19 years old- nonbinary (they/them)

Graydan is a little short at 5 feet tall exactly. Their hair is a light blue color with light brown eyes and slightly light-skinned. Graydan usually wears purple pants with several chains around their legs and a weird shade of orange tank top with a leather sleeveless jacket over it. Their boots have Sora's crown necklace symbol on the tips of the toe area. They also have a red wayfinder around their neck. Their keyblade is Ventus's Wayward Wind)

(Yw n.n)

(gosh, i'm looking on ranpo's wiki page and this man just amuses me so much. his character profile includes the following info: "likes: logical thinking, fantasy horror. dislikes: common sense, useless knowledge" ldsjnkdsjnf. also ahh i'll just let flamerune have beetlejuice introduce himself when she's able to get on, and we can have them just chat for a while.)

Ranpo blinked, reaching out to grab the candy as it flew through the air. It bounced off his finger, but he scrambled and caught it against his leg before it could fall to the ground. "Hah! Gotcha," he murmured. He popped the piece into his mouth.

"So..." After swallowing, the detective regarded the group in front of him again, with curiosity. "This should be fun." Discovering whatever, or whoever, was responsible for the situation, that is. Though, without my Ability... Some part of him knew he could solve mysteries even without the help of the glasses that President Fukuzawa gave him, but...still, he frowned. With a pause, he turned around to look at the road behind him. "Though, have you guys seen a pair of black-rimmed glasses around here somewhere?"

"Hm," was all Ranpo said, appreciatively, as Graydan's blade simply disappeared. He shook his head, pinching the bridge of his nose. "No, no. It's not that. I can see fine. But those glasses... they're important to me. Someone important gave them to me. And they help me solve cases." It seemed logical to keep the glasses' role in the activation of his 'Ability' a secret for now; he still needed to make sure he could trust these people. I did solve the mystery Poe wrote for me without my glasses, but... Ranpo paused, lost in his own thoughts.

"A group, huh? So...I assume you guys are all as uncertain about the situation as I am, right?" Ranpo sighed, tossing his head back to look at the sky. "As far as leadership goes, though, it's not for me. Having to keep track of what other people are doing sounds like a nightmare." In reality, it was more than just a lazy preference; despite being 26 years old, he was usually the type to need supervision.
