[text] Welcome to Hinoto-Ri...?

[putonagoodshow]

My name is Ideo, I'm one of the first arrivals here. If anyone has any questions that they have not received answers to, feel free to ask here. I will do my best to answer if I am able to, or at least direct you to someone who can.

[Compared to his previous network post, this is much more brief and much less showy- he's probably hard at work trying to see if he can help with the teleportation fiasco.]

If you want to frown at me, there's a video function.

[That kinda music just soothes the soul~]

[putonagoodshow]

[Flicks the video on. Frowns. Flicks it off.]

[GAADAMNIT YOU BROKE THE COMBO]

That's more like it.

She sighs. "Well, thanks anyway."

Sounds like as good a reason to set up shop here as anything. Heck, it'll give me some normalcy while dealing with the Personas and the demons and stuff.

*He's still not looking forward to the demons part at all, regardless of how the Shura encounter went.*

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

So another sapient species with a wide variety of abilities, based on that. Are they around the city all the time? Do they live anywhere particularly?

[It's not as strange as you think Ideo! And you can expect more of that in the future!]

I am! I am getting used to living here, thank you for asking.

I'm very excited to talk to her again. Has she been well too? Is she as busy as you are?

Elizabeth Middleford

[putonagoodshow]

Exactly. They live in the city, same as the human population; they usually live in sporadic areas as a result. Many of them have taken up residence by the mountain, but they can be found everywhere.

niceness is cooties right????

[putonagoodshow]

Yes; after the debacle at the labs, she's been helping me work overtime. She's the de facto leader of the demons that work under me, so it can sometimes be a strenuous job.

nooooo silly, niceness is nice! c:

[oathofdevotion]

You poor dears, you all ought to get a break sometime soon. You do get breaks, right?

Elizabeth Middleford

[putonagoodshow]

They attacked first, actually. They didn't start attempts at recruitment until after that fact. As far as I know, they've basically given up on that front however.

is that a kind of cheese :|a

[putonagoodshow]

We get breaks, and we're actually asked to TAKE breaks frequently. I just prefer working. I owe this city so much, that it feels wrong to not be doing all I can.

[He hasn't eaten all day because THERE IS WORK TO BE DONE.]

[getoutclaus]

[Hm... Santa was kind of hoping to be recruited, so that sucks. It's not even something he can just ask Ideo about.]

Maybe they're playing it cool for now, or something? Who can really be certain?

So did their first attack happen when you were here or did Butterfly tell you about it?

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

So are they considered citizens here? Part of society?

wow this is way late, why dont i get ideo pings hrgh

[putonagoodshow]

Some would consider them citizens, but it's not...quite official yet. They have basic rights, but not to the same degree that humans have.

It's a complicated situation that is still ongoing, I'm afraid.

casually does hella old tags like a boss

[putonagoodshow]

Most likely they are waiting to "feel out" the new Guests to judge if they should even try.

The first attacks occurred in the time that we had arrived, yes. Us seven have fought them many times now. It's a relief to have more people around that are willing and able to help.

[getoutclaus]

You guys dealt with the attacks on your own!? You must be pretty badass, dude!

I guess it must be a worry that the Anoli could start pulling in guests though, right? Unless you know for a fact they can't do the stuff Butterfly can do.

Re: B)

[putonagoodshow]

I'm not a Support user, but I wish I was. My Persona is useless on it's own, actually.

[He won't even mince words if it involves talking down about his abilities.]

The Anoli themselves cannot pull in guests...but they have had people show up for their side. We're not quite sure how, I will admit. It's one of the matters we are attempting to uncover.

[getoutclaus]

[Faced with two questions - why was Ideo's persona useless on its own and how true was that last statement - Santa completely ignored the first question not matter how curious he had been]

You seriously don't know?!

he's deadpanning behind the computer right now

[putonagoodshow]

They aren't exactly forthcoming with information on this subject.

ROOD

[getoutclaus]

Your higher ups or the Anoli guys?
