1st Public Works Project [Video]

[Shortly after everyone returns from the Geartopia adventure, their COMP feeds flicker to life to reveal a small anthopomorphic dog girl, eagerly smiling and offering a friendly wave.]

Hello!  I hope everyone made it back safe and sound.  I thought this would be a good time to introduce myself - my name is Isabelle, another Visitor like you all, and Mayor Sakahagi's new assistant!  I'll be working with Miss Junko to represent the concerns of the Visitors in the city, so if there's anything you would like to say to the Mayor or suggestions you might have for the city, please let me know and I'll make sure he sees them.  I know some of you were worried about the meeting the Mayor was having before with some of the citizens of the city who were concerned about the Visitors, so I'm here to report the results of that meeting so no one will have to worry.

[She reaches for a stack of papers, shuffling through it for several seconds more than is probably strictly necessary.]

Oh!  Um... sorry!  I'll just be a moment!

[The feed goes black for a few seconds, but there is still audio, and Isabelle can be faintly heard whining things like 'oh no, where did I put those' before she comes back.]

Ah!  Here it is!  Sorry for the delay...

[Clearing her throat, and with a small blush on her cheeks, she continues.]

First, it's been decided that all Visitors of the appropriate age need to attend school - that's elementary up through high school.  Anyone old enough to have graduated high school is free to enroll in one of the city's higher education facilities, but that's their own choice!

Second, there is no curfew for Visitors because of the need to protect the city during the 13th Hour.  However, very young Visitors under the age of 10 will need to have a parent or guardian with them.  This does not apply to demons, ghosts, robots, clones, or Visitors who may have been created recently as part of a laboratory experiment.  If there's any question about whether the curfew would apply to you, feel free to ask!

Third, the Mayor would like me to remind you all that the legal drinking age in the city is 20, and that this will be enforced the same way for the Visitors it is for permanent residents.

And last, as a matter of public decency, anyone with a, um...  [she blushes again at this point, averting her eyes from the camera] ...uh, visually questionable Persona... should try to avoid calling it out during the day, especially when there are children around.  There are demons and other scary monsters in the city, but the Mayor is concerned about protecting our youth.

[Isabelle coughs into her fist, quickly moving on from that point.]

Um... and that's all!  I've also prepared a Visitor satisfaction survey to get an idea of how you are all enjoying daily life in Hinoto-Ri.  This will also be a chance to suggest improvements to make the city a better place for the citizens and Visitors alike, so please take the time to look at it and fill it out!  The survey will be anonymous, so please be as honest as you like!  I'll report the results in a few weeks.

[Smiling, she bows her head, tail wagging in the background.]

It's been very nice meeting you all!  Again, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at any time!

[Video; filtered to Desco immediately after the last call]

Um... Miss Desco?  I was wondering if I could have a quick word with you.

When the feed snaps on, Desco is striking her best pose of regal disinterest. It's somewhat spoiled by the furiously wagging blur of her tail, however.

"Queen Desco bids you dark greetings, lowly corrupternment peon! Speak, and your generous ruler shall probably pay attention!"

And now there is a tiny demon girl hanging expectantly on Isabelle's every word.

...

You had a clandestine meeting blocked by anti-dimensional-transport technology to tell us all to go to school?

Is this for real. Like, this is the city's big demand?

...So, what if we've already graduated through college?

P-puu? I have to go to school now and have someone with me if I stay out too late? Um, that second part might be okay, but... um... how do I go to school?

[Atoli honestly tuned most of that out because oh dear you are cute and a dog.]

Well, it's very nice to meet you Isabelle! I actually got kind of distracted while you were reading the results of the meeting but it sounds like we don't have too much to worry about.

"So you caused a near riot in visitors to tell us that we need to go to school, and some persona need to wear pants? This is a joke right?"
resipiscent: (uhh...)

[personal profile] resipiscent 2013-10-22 11:17 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I can't say I'm sad I'll be missing out on the school thing.

Nod nod nod.

"Right! Desco conquered the Earth by defeating the Anti-Demon Biosuits, and the Prism Rangers, and Earth's Guardian God Earth-X! Although Earth-X was actually Desco's little sister, who is much less terrible now. And since Hinoto-Ri is on Earth, then naturally Desco also conquered it! This is the superior logic of the Final Boss!"

A slight pause, as the golden eye in her forehead blinks a few times.

"Also, Miss Puppy, please tell Desco's other peons in the corrupternment to hurry up and open more dessert shops. And plant a few flower fields! Desco doesn't want to be ashamed of her city if Big Sis visits!"

Shura is a mature adult.

Which is why she is snickering at the "visually questionable persona" part.

Oh, to have Mara with her...

"It just seems like a lot given the panic that went into the meeting. I do understand that the political process can't give all the details, such as you talked the townspeople down from public hangings to school, but it does seem like a bit much."

She lets out a breath, "Still, what if you are 16, and were last working on a Doctorate that isn't offered here due to the technology level not being high enough?"
bondsofsuffering: ([Question] So let's disprove the)

But do we have to be in school no matter what our circumstances are?
electricyousei: (Ruri worried)

"No, I understand. The field of physics I was studying is new in my time so I'm just curious if my other degrees will exempt me from going to High School. From what I've seen in anime it looks terrible."

She looks down and to the side for a minute.

"Is the full transcript of the meeting sealed?"
tyrantball: (tentacles!)

[personal profile] tyrantball 2013-10-22 12:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Alright, Miss Puppy! And tell your fellow peons that Desco is pleased with their acknowledgment of their complete subjugation to her!"

Slight pause.

"In fact, Desco will just make that official, she thinks. Puppy Lady! Desco hereby appoints you her official Corrupternment Representative! Your new job is making sure her other, lower-ranked peons know and flawlessly carry out her will!"
bondsofsuffering: ([Sorry] the dead ends as)

Hmm... Well, I'll think about it.
