[Video feed turns on and reveals a genuinely confused guy looking at the screen.]

Uh... Hi everyone. I was supposed to be in a headlock by one of my friends at school and at the brink of death. I know this isn't the afterlife since there's so many times I got real close to crossing that river, so is it some kind of dream land?

Sorry, but will anyone be able to give me answers of where this place is? This watch gave me some info but I'm still having trouble understanding what it's saying.

Oh, I almost forgot. My name's Akihisa Yoshii. Nice to meet everyone.

Hello?

Sorry if I'm bothering anybody. My name is Hasegawa Saori, and I just arrived in Hinoto-Ri.

They told me what happened, and what we're meant to do, but I'm not quite sure what to make of it. I tried contacting my dormmates, and even my family, but they haven't answered. I've even talked to some of the locals, but they just confirmed my worst fears. [There's a long pause before she can even write again. How could this have happened?]

Anyway, I decided I needed to get as many contacts as possible. How many of you are from before the Crisis? Apparently the latest recorded year before it is 2012, and I'm from 2010 for reference.

Again, sorry if I'm bothering anybody. I just needed to talk to someone...about all this. If you read through my post, thank you for listening.

[ Bucking the trend that seems to have gripped the network these days, there's a new audio post for you all to enjoy.

The man behind the post happens to be blind, but he's only keeping things limited to audio until he has a better idea of what this city and it's inhabitants are like.

Still, he sounds friendly enough. Even if he is just a little straight to the point.

Greetings all, Snake here. I arrived in Hinoto-Ri earlier today and a few important questions have only just crossed my mind.

[ Pause for thought. ]

Does relying on a Persona too much have any unpleasant side-effects?

Also, I know each apartment building has 10 rooms per floor, but how many floors does each building have? And are the apartment buildings identical to one another?

My apologies for asking so many questions right off the bat, but I assure you they're important.

Let me know. I'm not going anywhere.

[When the video switches on it's a bit crooked, but it's soon apparent that a child's face is staring into the watch.]

Is it on?

[Someone else off-camera must have given an affirmative answer, because now she smiles.]

Hello!

[Then she pauses. She wants to introduce herself, but that someone has just reminded her not to. When she continues speaking, the smile has faded and her voice sounds... well, like a young child who is a bit scared, but mostly confused, and also trying very hard to sound confident instead of either.]

Can anyone I know hear me?

They said I should ask because lots of people can see this, like on television! [Who 'they' is is also left unclear. But the idea of a video phone is apparently exciting, smartphones aren't exactly the norm in Inaba...] Um... So if you know me, then answer back with a video.

[Because text answers are apparently also bad. This list of rules is even longer than her Dad's.]

And don't worry, I'm okay. [This, she adds because she knows her family well enough to predict their reaction to this weird kind of message. Her Dad is probably going to yell either way, though.] ...Thank you for listening.

...Um, how do I turn it off?

[ Minato has an extremely important announcement to make. He's very upset by this turn of events because that music player - and his headphones, while we're at it - are very precious to him. Therefore, actually talking to many people at once on this device seems absolutely necessary! So he breaks his record of not broadcasting messages publically for this.

... anyone who watched the videos Yu Narukami posted the other day might recognize Minato as one of several who fell victim to teleporter accidents and wound up in the pool, though he's considerably dryer here. ]


My mp3 player got dunked in a pool the other day. I've been letting it dry since. However, it seems to be shorted out altogether.

... does anyone have any recommendations for a good place to get it fixed? Or... is there anyone here good with electronics?

I'd be very grateful for any assistance. [ pause ] For those I haven't met, my name is Minato Arisato.


ETA:
[ A short while later, he appends a picture of the mp3 player in question as well additional details as they come up. ]

It's from the early 2000s on Earth.
My sister has a working model, if one needs to be seen.

[A serene-looking woman sits before the camera, cross-legged on one of the tiny couch-futon-hybrids they put in these apartments. Some people might recognize her from the other night, though she's currently not wearing the big hooded brown robe, but instead a cassock-like tan garment.]

I've met some of you other "Extraterritorial Guests" already, but for those I haven't, my name is Meetra Surik. I'm a traveler here, like we all seem to be, and I seem to have gotten even more lost than I thought I was - and I was heading somewhere with no real maps in the first place.

So, my request to the network is...tell me about Earth. We seem to be on Earth, and most of the people here seem to be from different "Earths"...which I guess could mean a kind of planet, but from context, it sounds more like multiversal theory turning out to be true. At any rate, I'm new to this planet, so please, tell me all about it. In return, I'll share what I can say about the Galactic Republic, where I'm from. Deal?
