compnetwork | First Switch: On!

[Hello, network. You find a young highschooler poking at the camera and quirking ann eyebrow.]

Oi, this thing's on, right? I need to talk to people here! It's important!

So...I don't know any of you, probably, but - I'm Gentarou Kisaragi! I'm going to become friends with everyone in Hinoto-Ri!

[He grins for a good long moment, before he puts a hand to his chin.]

But, did someone take my belt? It's kind of yay big - [He stretching his hands out to full length, separating them about head width apart.] And I came here with it! I usually keep it on hand, but when I woke up this morning, I, well...

[The camera zooms out, and it shows Gentarou in all his glory - in an odd black and white jumpsuit, complete with a cape that stretches down his back. A ghost-like insignia is emblazoned across the front of his chest. But it doesn't look like the outfit really... fits him.]

I was wearing this! [He sounds somewhat confused, looking away and smoothing his pompadour, before returning to the camera.] If anyone knows where my belt is, I'd really appreciate it! Maybe we an be friends, too!

But uh... first I'd kind of like my belt back. I told a friend I'd make sure I took care of it!

[And on that note, he fumbles with the new device, eventually ending the feed.]

You... It's not even been a week, and you've lost your belt?

[Face, meet palm. He's gonna try and ignore the outfit, though. For now.]

It's not my fault! I remember exactly where I put it! But it wasn't there this morning! I wouldn't just misplace it like that!

[IT WAS THE FAIRIES SENPAI, I SWEAR.]

[Luckily stuff like this is par for the course in Hinoto-Ri. And from his experience with Stuff Going Wrong™, if stuff wasn't missing, it wasn't functional, or something in that vein.

Shoutarou sighs, then shakes his head.]

Well. We can't have you beltless if stuff like this is going on. I'll start asking around.

[He sighs, a little relieved.] Thanks, man. I'm sorry I'm causin' so much troubl-

Oop, wait, hold on.

[AND AFTER READING THE BELOW REPLY.]

Uh- found it!

[Great thing about public posts is that everyone can see them! Hoo boy, that looks like a mess.]

...should we give you a hand with that?

It might be a little wise! Though I do have this ring that came with this suit...

[He puts it on and then... oop, well, goodbye ground.]

W-Woah! I can fly!

[No Gentarou STOP THAT--ugh it's too early in the morning to be playing Responsible Sempai.]

...yeah, I'll get my hat and just look for the chaos.

I can handle it, I think! It's not the first time I've flown - woah!

[He drifts a bit from side to side. It is the first time he's flown without being sustained by the Rocket Switch.]

I'll meet you there, then!? No worries!

Just call it detective's intuition on this, Gen. And yeah, I'll be there.

[And then Shoutarou hangs up so he's not as distracting. And what he's calling "detective's intuition" is more like personal experience.]
