002 [Video/Public]

[The screen flickers on to a boy wearing an amused grin.]

Everyone!

I've got good news!  You're forgiven!  The angel I summoned said so himself; God would definitely forgive you in a heartbeat because man's heart is weak, as is his mind, and we're all, uh, susceptible to the workings of the Evil One, and even as we wallow in our filth and sin, we -- You know what, forget God; I forgive you.

Seriously, no one could possibly blame you for what happened last week even if some of us were lucky enough to be scorpion magnets.  Misery has it right - the important thing is to make sure that it doesn't happen again.  If you all missed the announcements from the higher-ups, the people who were affected most severely were Scorpios.  ...If you don't know what that means, in modern times on Earth - that's the 2000s - they were born when the Sun was in the sector of the sky dominated by the constellation Scorpio.  This makes no sense if you were born outside Earth or in a time when we didn't go in for ridiculous things like pretending arbitrary sky-pictures meant anything about our lives, but the important thing is that the sun transitions into Scorpio beginning on October 23rd.

Guess what last week was.

The next sign is Sagittarius.  The sun will shift into its sector on November 22nd.

So let's clear a few things out of the way - Everyone who was afraid, can you report in with your sign?  Same thing if you were a scorpion magnet, though maybe that's more of a subjective thing.  And everyone who's a Sagittarius, do you mind if we tie you to your beds from November, oh, 18th-ish to the 23rd?  Your choices are (Yes/Of course/Definitely).  If your name is Jun, (That's kinda kinky) works, too.  If you don't know your sign, Sagittarius goes from late November into late December - so the end of a harvest season into winter in the Northern hemisphere, and the end of spring into summer in the South.

I'll keep track of the data.  It's kinda my thing.

Oh -- this has nothing to do with anything, but I'm working in the computer labs of the university now.  Drop by if you ever need anything fixed or if you just want to say hi.

I'm saying it's a possibility if it turns out they come every month. Even if they do and it is a ritual, it does not mean it would be for good. We do not know what would happen if there is a creature for each zodiac, but if they are all like this we likely won't have a choice in fighting them lest the city fall into ruins.

Unfortunately we don't have enough information for anything concrete. Not until another being such as this shows up. For all we know this could have been the only one.

...I meant I didn't understand how Zodiac Sign was supposed to affect dating, not that I didn't understand dating or what comes with it.

...are you using speech to text or are you actually typing out stuttering?

It was popular to summon monstrous mind-altering creatures to destroy the city on a monthly basis?

He can increase a group's attack and defense, and restore their health and magic after a battle. I think I mostly understand. It sounds like one of those video games.

...A what?

Wait until I have the time to app Elle in. she will be /on this/.

[personal profile] maybe_a_king 2012-11-03 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. I apologize. [she may or may not sound a little disappointed.]

Perhaps there are magazines around to help on that front? I remember a number of girls in school looking through fashion magazines for their horoscopes and such.

Maybe I don't have a sense of humor.

And anyway, what does dating compatibility have to do with being attacked by scorpions?

Candy? Oh, yeah! I completely forgot about the candy thing, we usually have some costume party sometimes, but that's about it.

Is that how it works? I guess I should research this more and look at the underlying structure, instead of the horoscopes and personality summaries.

As large as it is, I don't think we're actually going to be able to fit 11/12 or however much of the city on there. There's people here besides us guests, you know.

If you want an academic source there's always the library.

[It takes him a moment to calm down from that. Tch... he couldn't expect him to understand, of course.]

In the long run it'll be better.

[But he's right. That's not the issue right now.]

They just get tired. As long as he doesn't take too much they'll be perfectly fine. He did it to me last week.

Probably doesn't give a shit either.

[Kazuya's words are blunt, but he let's it drop with a sigh]

But okay. I'll talk to him about the whole Scorpio event, say hi, do some investigating, blah de blah blah. You can use that giant brain of yours to figure this out before it's my turn to go on a rampage.
