[Luca, before this, hadn't really been using the video feature. It was inconvenient to do and her voice worked just as well, right? But an official post merits looking her best and using video! ... and broadcasting from Lady Cloche's stuffed animal-filled room, instead of her Dive Machine-filled room.]

Hi, Hinoto-Ri! [She sits neatly on the bed, hands folded demurely in her lap.] My name is Luca. Luca Trulyworth. I've spoken to a few of you, but, eheh... it never hurts to introduce yourself again! [She leaves the cute, dopey smile on her face for a moment, then drops it in favor of a more polite smile.]

I don't want to take up a lot of your time, so I'll get to the point. Lady Cloche and I have been thinking about the best way to explain the Song Magic we use. And, well, I think a demo would work great! That way, anyone interested can see it up-close, live, in-person! [smile smile smile] Doesn't that sound like fun?

Song Magic is an important part of our lives as Reyvateils. It's also how we fight. So, think of it like... a cultural experience and a combat tutorial! [She bows her head, and her tone grows somber.] We're all hoping nothing dangerous happens again but... in case it does, Lady Cloche and I would like you to know- [She places her hand over her chest.] How to fight with us or, if anything bad happens... against us. [She drops the hand to her lap with a smile.]

If you're interested, please let us know! We made a list of Songs we can sing... because, well- maybe, if you guys had one you really wanted to see? Was yea ra chs hymmnos mea. We're happy to sing for you. [With that, she stands to give a large, formal bow to the camera.]

[Should you choose to open it there is an optional attachment to the post, describing the girls' Song Magic.]

I don't really know any songs other than my Song Magic... but, I appreciate the sentiment. Thank you.

Luca, however, has composed several beautiful songs without any magical effects. Perhaps I can convince her to sing one of them for the exhibition.

[voice]

[greatseal]

You don't? Not even popular music from your home, or something? [She'd assumed someone who sings to fight might just like to sing in general... Or that there'd at least be a robust music industry.]

[voice]

[pastalishe]

Perhaps a melody or two, but nothing that would really count as a "song." My duties on Metafalss do not leave me with a great deal of leisure time. [And most of that time is spent spending money in the Fancy Shop...]

[voice]

[greatseal]

Well then... we definitely should go do some karaoke sometime! That's the best way to learn new songs. [no Minako...]

[misery_hates_company]

Pft. They'd be looking for a long time if they looked in my direction then. I can handle myself just fine.

[voice]

[pastalishe]

[But, Cloche seems to be a little excited at the prospect...]

Well. ... my schedule is much more open than it is at home. I would not be opposed to such an outing.

[virtualbirdwatching]

I guess you could say that... I can't really tell it apart from a violin, though.

I think I'd like to hear Snowy Flowers, personally, but I guess you would need a monster or something nearby for that, huh...

"Don't worry about it. Many worlds don't have things like that it seems."

[risingshepard]

Sounds like something I can get used to. [To her, this was like coordinating attacks on a single target...maybe more, if the attachment was any indicator.]

I'm guessing that either way you go about it, you'll need people protecting you until you can unleash it.

[fools_journey]

[ I will make ♪note♪ of it, because that is music to my ears. ]

[ Also Minato thinks that is a cute blush. She is very intentionally cute. ]

Just let me know when and where, and I'll come to hear.

[fools_journey]

Perhaps, Lady Cloche.

[ You'll never know! But this clearly calls for a new pun... ]

Word play is not really my forte.

[ Never mind that in this context, it's pronounced 'fort'. His English is not super stellar, and lots of native speakers make the pronunciation error, anyway. Also never mind that the common language here probably isn't English and so this pun wouldn't work. Shh. ]

[pastalishe]

You are. You're making those awful jokes on purpose, I can tell! [She can feel a chill down her spine...]

[fools_journey]

[ He smiles a little. ]

I admit that one was on purpose, but the first one was not.

[trulyworthit]

Oh? [Help her forget about it, hm, hm? Luca's almost a little suspicious, there, Mister...]

Well, we're looking forward to singing! I hope you like it.

[trulyworthit]

[Aaaah, it's serious...]

Just knocking us out should stop the Song. We'd much rather live, and make up for any damage we caused...

[trulyworthit]

We can make some target dummies or something! I'd love to sing that one. It was the first song I really made from... me. It's special.

[trulyworthit]

Oh- sorry. I guess if you just got here you wouldn't know!

Last month, a bunch of people of a certain Zodiac sign started acting really weird... they got yellow eyes, and eventually masks, and they weren't acting like themselves. It was crazy...

If anything like that happened, we'd probably sing and destroy a lot.

[risingshepard]

I've only been around for a week or two, so I could use all the info I can get.

[She listens to her for a while, quirking a brow at the mention of the Zodiac...and the aftereffects. Well, that doesn't sound good at all.]

Not acting like themselves, huh? Sounds dire already... [Indoctrination...only with more weirdness than ever. She couldn't help but feel her stomach twist at the idea.] Were they attacking everyone in sight?

[trulyworthit]

Definitely! Um- any preference on what you'd like to hear?

[trulyworthit]

I didn't go outside, so I don't know all the details... Sorry...

Other people were affected, too. So, even if we weren't all freaky- some people got really scared. Like, shaking on the floor scared. One of us might sing then, too.

[risingshepard]

Well, whatever you can offer is great too. [She smiles a little for a brief moment.]

Hmm. And you'd rather have anyone that isn't to be prepared, right? In case you're about to try anything on those who're scared out of their wits?

[trulyworthit]

It seemed like- there were people who were acting weird, people who were scared, and people that weren't affected too badly one way or the other. [Luca wasn't out and about to see people who had best compatibility- that were stronger and scorpion-magnets.]

We could be targeting people lie that, or- [She pauses, biting her lip. It's for the safety of people, but she hates admitting it...]

Lady Cloche is an IPD Reyvateil. That means that when she gets really scared, or angry... she has an outbreak. That's why I wasn't outside when it happened. If I left Lady Cloche alone, she might have started singing and not stopped. So, it can be dangerous, even if we aren't the ones with yellow eyes.

... I'll talk to her about putting that information on the COMP, too.

[second_destiny]

I told her a bit about my mobile suit, and it got her really interested. She said you've got humanoid robots in your world, but none of them are almost 20 meters tall.

I'm looking forward to it, too. You can bet I'll be there.

[greyerrant]

I understand. [ He tries to calculate how much force it will require to knock out a Reyvateil. ]

[voice]

[greatseal]

Great! Let's pick a time once you're not busy with your concert.
