DOOOOOOOOOM!

DOOM COMES FOR US ALL! LET LOOSE THE DOGS OF WAR, THE SKIES SHALL RAIN WITH MOBOCRACY AND THE DARKEST FIERY PITS SHALL CRACK OPEN, OUR SOULS FORFEIT!

[He stops to take a large breath.]

THERE IS NO DELIVERANCE FROM THIS FATE! WE SHALL ALL QUAKE AT THE CHAOS LIKE THE WORMS WE ARE!

A SICKENED, SENSITIVE SHADOW WITHERING IN HANDS THAT ARE NOT HANDS!! GODS, THE HANDS! GHASTLY MIDNIGHTS OF ROTTING CREATION!! CORPSES OF DEAD WORLDS!!! THE WINDOW! THE WINDOW!!!

[Running is heard behind him and a voice is heard. It sounds like Ciel's voice]

There he is!

[Q's voice follows.]

Miss Minerva, now!

[There is the shot of something being fired while McGonagall lets loose a spell of her own.]

Incarcerous!

[A series of ropes fly in the air and bind Orpheus so that he can't move. He continues to struggle, all the while screaming.]

UNHAND ME YOU FIENDS! YOU ARE ALL IN LEAGUE WITH THE DARKNESS! IT COMES TO KILL US ALL! IT-

[Clang! Q opted to use a small tranquilizer gun on Orpheus from the back, knocking him right out.]

What a mess.

[He turns towards the camera, adjusting his tie as if there was no problem in the world. Even in dire situations, he is a calm man.]

It appears that a bout of paranoia has hit citizens of the city. At first we had assumed it was just the local population, but now with Orpheus....also affected, it means some of you may be in turn. We are trying to find the source of these matters, but our search has been fruitless.

Even the demonic population isn't quite sure what is going on.

Be vigilant. If you feel you are affected, please do your best to stay calm.

[As he speaks in the back, you can hear Ciel and Minerva talking about locking Orpheus up for his own good...and their ears.]

If you need any help with him, either myself or Reiko can attempt.

Or, well. If you'd simply rather trade babysitting duties I guess?

Perhaps they are right in thinking locking him up might be the best solution.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH EVERYBODY?!

*Misery holds the watch away from her, shielding her ears.*

Of all the blasted... That explains my sales jump, at least. Well, it hasn't affected me, so it's not really any of my business.

Don't worry- we got this, just make sure the other two are okay. Please?

"Mobocracy?"

I do hope you have at least managed to pinpoint a pattern in this...peculiar infection. Are there any common links between those that are acting this way?

[Yamato's seen everyone acting a bit weird and YEAH OKAY HE DOESN'T WANNA END UP ACTING LIKE THAT]

mob·oc·ra·cy /mäbˈäkrəsē/
Noun: Rule or domination by the masses.

...for what it's worth, I don't think even he knows what he's saying however.

W-- What the hell? Remain calm?! How do you expect us to remain calm with demons and that-- that thing looming around here somewhere?! [You know, whatever Orpheus was talking about.] Don't just go around saying nothing is wrong! I knew something was up with this place the first minute we all got here...!!

What's the verdict on the potions you're selling? I've got a Persona skill that's supposed to do the same thing, but I don't know if whipping out my Persona and telling people to hold still is a good idea.

Well, I managed to learn how to make my own version of these "patra stones" that people are fond of, at least, though I'm still working on a "courage" potion. Unfortunately, whether or not they work is a moot point because I've had so many blasted people beat down my door for them in the past 24 hours that I simply don't have any ingredients left. If you can cast the spell, I may be able to make a more blunt method by infusing stones with the spell instead. Bah, it's such a bother, though; I should've chosen a second Persona with more support magic.

Takeba is already being contained. I assume signs would have appeared for myself or Kirijo earlier.

I cast Patra back in that battle the other night, right? I wasn't sure what curing 'fear' was supposed to mean, but it felt like my Persona knew what it was doing...

[Atsuro shrugs slightly.]

I don't know if it'll work on these guys.

[this... explains a few things, but at the same time it doesn't. Without a cause it's difficult to create an action plan.]

There hasn't been any history of this kind of thing happening before, has there?

[what with the Shadows and a full moon in a few weeks... if this is some kind of new Apathy Syndrome, she wants to be on top of it.]

Tch. What an enormous pain. I suppose someone will have to actually try to find a source of this nonsense. I do hope you find someone.

We've tried.

Sadly, it doesn't seem to have any effect on them.

Oh HONESTLY, this was a PRIVATE CONVERSATION. Ugh. Still, that sounds rather problematic. The last thing I need is a bunch of screaming hoardes banging down my door either for cures or to complain that the ones I was PROVIDING don't work. I don't suppose you have any better insight as to the cause of this nonsense?

If you need help with transferring him, I'll try to make it down there. We might want to put him and Orpheus in the same facility at least, even if not the same room.

Good to know, anyway. It can't be that easy, right?

...I'd blame the full moon, but nothing happened last month, and we're still a week away. I'm out of ideas.

From the city's limited nine year history, not that we are aware of, I'm afraid.

Nothing like this has ever happened in all the time we have been here- and with the demons likewise baffled, no. We have no more idea than you. So you'll have to excuse my abruptness, but I would rather tell you what works and what doesn't than to let energies be wasted, given the situation.

If we find out, you all will be the first to know- but this has effected the civilian population as well. Please be careful.

Good to see we have such reliable people looking after our interests then! You'd better figure it out soon either way. This nonsense is only going to cause problems for me.

This is the first time anything like this has happened before. We have no idea what's going on.

[Sigh. Well this is not surprising.]

Do you have others from your world around you that may aid you while we figure out what is wrong?
