[On the one hand, it's a risk to reveal Kyrios.]

[On the other, he's glad to get it back after so long without it.]

Is there anyone here with skills in robotics and mobile suit repair? Mine has sustained heavy damage.

[The video flicks on, showing a mobile suit with serious damage. Once it stood 19 meters tall - now it's sitting and would look upset if it could.]

[The video flicks off.]

I know it's a tall order, but I would be willing to work with whomever gave me help. Even if it's just getting it so that it looks correct but doesn't entirely work, I'd be satisfied.

I will pay you back in any way I can.

FROM THE 21ST MORNING UNTIL 22ND AT NIGHT, THE NETWORK WILL BE DOWN, AND PLAYING CLASSICAL MUSIC ALONG WITH GEKIRANGER III EPISODES.

You may go tag in this log and try to see who caused it...

badluckhealer

here's a question for the network:

why would an ally kiss you on the cheek?

i know it's a greeting gesture in some cultures, but there are also other connotations and it's just plain confusing. no explanation was given, either. it's just really confusing and i don't get it.

thx for any insights anyone might have.

[Today, as a lot of the Visitors may have noticed with only a passing glance, is September 19. For Faris, this date holds no real significance.

But there was no escaping the fact that someone, somewhere, knew about International Talk Like A Pirate Day.

And a lot of the people that did had found her.]

Anyone mind tellin' me why everyone's tryin' to do really bad impressions of me today?

So... how to put this... I guess this is a PSA.

Be careful of this guy. I just walked in on him stealing a ton of food out of my apartment, and he escaped through the window. It probably doesn't matter how high up you are, either - I'm on the 11th floor and it looks like he got away just fine.

Also, if you do run into him and have a justice streak, I wouldn't mind someone helping me get my stuff back. That's enough to last a week, easy.

[...A week in snacks, anyway.

It is also worth noting that there is an attached photo featuring a masked Sam taking food out of a fridge in case anyone wants further proof.]

There is one word Tachikoma loves to describe herself with: Helpful. No matter the situation, Tachikoma loves helping out to the best of her abilities. And sometimes even without the needed abilities, Tachikoma likes trying to learn how to help.

Lately though, Tachikoma has been feeling like she hasn't been helping out as much as she could. Mostly she would ask when she bumped into someone, and then help out if she could, but that seems rather random. Maybe it would be best if she was a little more proactive?

Tachikoma can visit any networked electronic device after all. Well, any unsecured ones. Okay, a few secured ones too, but she really should only do that if on an official mission. Or the person really needs her help. So over the next few days you might notice an odd little blue spider robot on your COMP, phone, computer, or even certain kiosks.

Trying to write a post to the network? She'll be there in the corner, offering to check your grammar or spelling.

Walking to a restaurant with your COMP on? She'll pop on and ask if you need directions to some local eateries.

Checking your email? Suddenly Tachikoma will be there warning you about letters that might be phishing scams.

Sometimes you don't need to be doing anything, a reminder held up by Tachikoma might just pop up to tell you about a dentist appointment or get the oil checked in your car.

After all, sometimes the best way to be helpful is to take care of all the little things that people don't think about to even the most minutest detail. Right?

[OOC Note: Tachikoma has a permission post for how much info she can gather from your devices, and thus use in these interactions. You don't have to fill it out though if you just want to assume it's the bare (Level 1) essentials.]

[The video feed turns on with Noda looking straight at the screen with a biggest grin on his face.]

To those in need of any assistance, I will be more than happy to help out! Leave a message with the details and I will find you!!

[He talks a little too loud... But if you know him, it's a little weird for him to offer a hand. Or maybe you are perhaps reminded of a certain situation. Nevertheless, he's offering to help around! He's a pretty good fighter at least, so maybe his strength can be of some use?]

[Action]
[Shortly after the message is put on the network, Noda is seen around town, breaking all of the fire hydrants with his halberd. Why was he....?]

If you happen to be awake at this hour, you may wish to head off to city hall. There is a meeting regarding your....ahh how to put this...your rights in the city?

Quite troublesome, not inviting any of you at all...

[Should your character follow this message, they will find this scene. You can also respond to this post, if you wish.]

HOOOOOOOOO!

Hinoto-Ri, your soul is suffering! Please allow Michel to sing you the songs of his people.

[And before anyone can protest, Eikichi starts to sing a little something like this. It's...somehow worse than his usual singing because he's trying to gosh extra hard and putting his soul in there!

Also this video is on automatic playback if you are unfortunate to click on it.

...on the public city archive, there's also 246 dislikes and it was just posted mere minutes ago. Clearly his effort is helping greatly!]

Virgo has been defeated. This makes three zodiac monsters encountered in total.

As always, the Astrology Master Document is available for your perusal. If any Visitors who encountered the monster themselves care to input their experience, it is there.

I have also taken the liberty of creating a second document, the Event Master Document in an effort to catalog previous "events" that have occurred here. Although it may seem like a broad topic, please feel free to fill it in with any important information detailing the type of things that may prove helpful as warnings for new Visitors as well as reminders for the old of what, exactly, can occur here.

Discussion in this post is encouraged if anyone feels they are confused or lacking in data.

[Hizumi's been sparse lately, mostly due to the fact that he's missed such large chunks of work, he simply cannot afford to miss any more hours. So, you can find him at the arcade as per usual, often playing games with an unusually serious expression.

This might be explained if you happen to notice that each machine seems to have a high score that involves a string of 6s for... some... reason?]

((OOC: As usual, discussion goes in the discussion thread, and characters are free to comment anonymously or not as they desire! If anyone wants to use this as an opportunity to get their fuss on and deface/beautify the documents, feel free to do so - there are backup copies that can be used to fix up the docs, so go nuts without worry!

EDIT: Thanks for the great event! Archived versions from the event can be found here (Astrology) and here (Event)!))

[You know, later he would wonder why he posted this. But right now, Kanji had something very important to tell the world.]

HEY!

[Do you like your ears they might have popped from the noise. It's okay tho, his slight confusion as why he's doing this is easily overturned.]

So uh....anyone need something sewed? You know, tore somethin' off, need a dress made longer...I just need something to do.

trainwrecking

[When the feed turns on it appears to flicker and crackle, jerking erratically. Each jolt of the camera coincides with a crash, as if the owner is ramming into something amidst the lull of Otonashi's screaming and coughing.]

Aoi! Please, someone-- help, get her out of--!

[There's another upset as a pieces of the ceiling begin to collapse, darkening the feed. Unable to free himself from the debris, he weakly crawls through the wreckage and finally partially emerges, gasping for air.

It only takes one weak struggle to realize the senselessness of his struggle. The defeat is a cruel, cold dread in his stomach, but still he smiles a bittersweet smile. He can at least do one good thing in all of this, even if that thing may be his last.]

Hah... Aoi... this isn't your fault. Hahh... [The ceiling groans a final time and crashes down, cutting the video.]

((There will not be any responses right away as this is just part of a tiny plot, but there may be a little later. Feel free to notice that there's smoke if your character is out during the 13th hour.))

frequent_flyer

[No one else wanted to take charge, so here he was, looking into the video feed with a resigned expression.]

...Does anyone have any musical experience or know how to start a band? I need to uh... commission a song or something...

[He looks completely at a loss, not sure what else to say about it, awkwardly shutting off the feed.]

Good morning, Hinoto-Ri.

[A woman wearing a brown robe and a vague smile seems to be sitting on the roof of a building and enjoying the morning sunlight while looking into her COMP watch.]

I seem to have been gone for a couple of months, or at least long enough that they had to give me a new ID card. It's kind of disconcerting, since I'm pretty sure I was only "back" in my galaxy for a few hours, but at least they were quiet hours for once.

Anyway, if the last major thing I remember is the bull monsters, what have I missed?

Oh, and for any new Visitors, my name is Meetra Surik. I come from another world, like you, and I've been trying unsuccessfully to figure out the meaning behind the mystical events here for a while. I also enjoy card games, sunrises, and meandering philosophical dialogs.

psimera

Would anyone know where one could get uncommon adapters? Or, um, wire something electronic up to the grid here directly without frying it? Or any other way you can think of to charge unusual things?

[The voice starts off trying to be calm, almost mechanical, but it very quickly slips into desperation. Apparently this is urgent. The Commander's got blueprints of his insides saved in his head for repairs, but he doesn't actually know how they work, besides the fact that they do if everything's connected properly. He's clueless about this.]

[...he isn't someone who's been heard on the network before, either. It rather sounds like he chose it as a last resort.]
