13th Screw [Video]

[When the feed clicks on, it reveals Nano standing in front of the Amagi Inn, wearing a yukata and with her hands folded in front of her. There's a sad look in her eyes that she's doing her best to hide, but since she's always been pretty bad at that sort of thing, it's probably pretty evident that she'd been crying before making this broadcast. She sniffles for a moment, rubs her eyes, and takes a deep breath to compose herself before beginning to speak.]

Hello, everyone. My name is Nano Shinonome.

[She bows politely to the camera before continuing.]

For those of you who knew her, Yukiko Amagi-san has returned home. [She gestures behind her.] Her family's business, the Amagi Inn, is still here in the Scorpio District. Yukiko-san left a note here that said if she were to leave Hinoto-Ri, she would like me and her friend Kanji Tatsumi-san to take care of it in her place. I want to do my best for Yukiko-san, since she's one of the closest friends I've had since coming here myself, but most of the inn's staff except for the Pyro Jacks that heat the water are gone too, and with school starting again next month, I'm not sure I'll have enough time to do the thorough job this inn deserves.

[There is a small sigh as Nano closes her eyes, pausing to compose herself again. She wants to come off professionally.]

So because of this, I'd like to interview some people for positions working at the inn. I'm going to work here myself on some evenings and on the weekends, but since my own house is in the city too, I won't be able to be here all the time. If anyone is interested in working at the inn, please contact me and we can talk about it more privately.

I think we'll need some people to work at the front desk greeting guests, people to clean the rooms, and a small staff to work in the kitchen preparing meals. There are some rooms for the employees to stay in if anyone would like to move in for convenience's sake, and the hot spring out back is open too for when you're not working a shift. I'd like to get some people quickly so the inn doesn't have to close while we wait to fill the positions, so if you're interested, please reply as soon as possible.

[Another deep breath, a smile, and one last polite bow.]

Thank you very much!

The Worst Freaky Friday (VIDEO, OPEN)

[Goooooood morning Hinoto-Ri! There's a camera pointing at Eikichi right now as he's sleeping in bed and...wait is that Eikichi it's hard to tell, he doesn't have his makeup on.

Sure is a lot of hair too...

Whatever, he's in that semi-lucid part of waking up when you're still not sure what's happening and he notices Miyabi is sleeping besides him and falls from the side instead.

~Classy~]

Owww. Didn't know you were here, Babe, sorry!

[Sorry I slipped off of bed?

However you, dear viewers, might notice something else is off (and we don't mean the fact he's in his blue underwear), and see what happens at least until the feed cuts off.]

Sometimes its the most inconvenient things that go missing [video]

"Hello. This is Hoshino Ruri. I was wondering two thing. Firstly have any of you ever made a model kit? I had one requested of me and while I had several crew members who built them in the past, they are all at home so I can't ask for help with them."

"Oh yes, also if any of you are good at sewing things, and discreet, I need some assistance with a project. For me. Nothing too complicated just I don't know how to sew."

She looks around and lets a breath out, still looking deadpan, but with a slightly more annoyed tone in her voice.

"Also, something of mine has gone missing. A passport from the nation of Peaceland. If you see it could you please get it for me? Something worthless here, but it is one of my few ties to my biological family, even if I hardly know them."

((ooc: The faeries have stolen Ruri's passport and she's looking for it, hopefully before people read it.))

As soon as the fairies found out that the COMP could be moved by them while using the video function to film somebody else, the pranking began.

5th Whistle ["anon" text]

[Now those who know Blues, which probably isn't a lot of people, will find this post to be really really strange. More or less because he thinks he posted it under the guise of anon and well.

them tricksy pixies went and fixed that. So while he is very sure this was posted as anon? It ain't.]

So.

Say you have a machine, it's from your world but it has a flaw. One that you can't actually fix yourself because well. You can't.

It wouldn't go well if you tried, but getting someone else to repair it is a bit tricky. Because you don't want it to be changed too much, but you want it to be working properly. And there is the fact that you don't know any of the people who could fix it nor how good they are at what they do.

[wow, so rambly there get to the pooooooooooooint.]

I guess what I'm saying here is this; who here is good with machines?

002: Not amused

[VIDEO: An unamused Elaine glares at the camera.]

Yes, yes, very funny. Now if whoever took all of my houseplants during the night would be so kind as to return them, I'll consider letting you off easy.

[ACTION: After posting her ~~threat~~ message to her plant kidnapper, Elaine can be found right outside the Libra apartments, counting her houseplants, which she found sitting on the curb, lined up in order from smallest to biggest. What is even happening.]

[The video feed turns on to show Noda looking a little upset. ~~When is he EVER not upset?~~ He stays quiet for a little before giving a sigh, scratching his head.]

I've misplaced my cleaning kit for my weapon. I've searched throughout the entire apartment, and I cannot find it.

[Oh if only he looked a little more carefully... It's sitting right behind him in a shelf.]

one sword wielded ♥ video

[ When the feed turns on, there's a young, spunky girl who seems to be more energetic than usual. Or at least, she's trying to be. ]

Eheh... guess this was easier than I thought it'd be! Papa did tell me how to use a computer after all, and this isn't that hard at all. Huh? It's recording? Ah!

Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to surprise anybody, but I'm totally fine now. Right, right! I forgot to introduce myself— I'm Nanohana Jiyu. Oh! But Papa calls me Jubei - but I'm not Yagyu Jubei. At least, I'm not right now. [ There's a light giggle escaping from her lips as she scratches the back of her head. ] I think some of you met me before as Yagyu Jubei... you see, I kind of have a magical eyepatch, like this!

[ She pulls out an eyepatch from her pocket only to realize that... it's... not the Lovely Eyepatch. OOPS. Her eyes widen in surprise and shock as she gasps. ]

Ah! It's gone! I mean, I know that I didn't want the Lovely Eyepatch, but... um, if you see a heart-shaped eyepatch, could you give it back? It's kind of important.

Fifth Star of Fate ☯

[Video]

I received a request from Caroline today. It seems she wants to know about people who have special eyes or sight, but...

[There's a pause before she begins again, her voice carefully diplomatic.]

I understand that talking about these kinds of abilities might be difficult, so if people would rather contact me anonymously or discuss it privately, I don't mind. [Especially when her own power is what it is...]

I just have a few questions, so it shouldn't take very long. Thank you in advanced.

[And with a small bow, she'll end her message there.]

[Action]

[And for those who aren't in the habit of using the network or otherwise thought they would escape Aoi... People who have eyepatches or otherwise unusual looking eyes may find themselves approached by her.]

Um... Excuse me, but do you think I could speak with you for a moment?

Case 2: Pixieventures

[Apollo appears in front of the camera today, but he's not alone! He's accompanied by four pixies, all flitting around him in a square around his head. A giggle can be heard from behind the camera, indicating a camera pixie as well. Apollo tries to move his head away from the fairy wings, only for the pixies to follow his movements in synchronized formation. Sighing with exasperation, he finally speaks.]

Hey, everyone! It's Apollo. I've got some good news to share with everybody.

One weird thing about the law firm I work for now is that we also defend demons. I was really unsure about it at first, but... I guess it didn't turn out so bad. [The upper-left pixie scowls and begins to pull on Apollo's ear.] Ow! Hey, I'm sorry! I'm just not used to working with demons, that's all! [The pixie releases his ear and gives a small "hmph" of displeasure.]

Anyway! For my second case, I had to defend a pixie- this one right here, in fact. [He points to the lower-left pixie.] This is Genevieve! She was accused of the murder of another pixie, but it turned out that a Hua Po did it. I thought it was going to be a close call, but I won the case! Genevieve is Not Guilty. Isn't that a relief? [Genevieve nods.]

That's it for now! I'm just saying that, if you've made any demon friends here and they get into trouble, you can send them my way. ...Even though I'd kind of prefer human clients again... [The upper-left pixie yanks on Apollo's ear again.] Ow! H-hey, cut that out!

[There's another giggle from behind the camera before the feed cuts out.]

[Video] Of Pranks, Requests, & Finishing What One Started

[You may have seen a certain Reploid looking around the city in the daytime lately, particularly near or in the public Aquila Library in the Aquarius Ward. His face looks somewhat annoyed on the feed that he has to ask the Hinoto-Ri network about this, but... sometimes before one can help with a request, one must first ask for help themselves. His voice, for those that have encountered him before, oddly possesses less of a monotone edge than before, despite his current demeanor.]

Does anyone have books on robots? I asked the library here, but all their books on the subject were out. The clerk at the front desk thought they had something though...

[It probably has nothing to do with the fairies overhearing him asking for them at the counter, nor the sections of anything pertaining to machines (and industrialism by extension) suddenly entirely empty of their shelves. Probably.]

First Switch: On! - [VIDEO]

[Hello, network. You find a young highschooler poking at the camera and quirking ann eyebrow.]

Oi, this thing's on, right? I need to talk to people here! It's important!

So...I don't know any of you, probably, but - I'm Gentarou Kisaragi! I'm going to become friends with everyone in Hinoto-Ri!

[He grins for a good long moment, before he puts a hand to his chin.]

But, did someone take my belt? It's kind of yay big - [He stretching his hands out to full length, separating them about head width apart.] And I came here with it! I usually keep it on hand, but when I woke up this morning, I, well...

[The camera zooms out, and it shows Gentarou in all his glory - in an odd black and white jumpsuit, complete with a cape that stretches down his back. A ghost-like insignia is emblazoned across the front of his chest. But it doesn't look like the outfit really... fits him.]

I was wearing this! [He sounds somewhat confused, looking away and smoothing his pompadour, before returning to the camera.] If anyone knows where my belt is, I'd really appreciate it! Maybe we an be friends, too!

But uh... first I'd kind of like my belt back. I told a friend I'd make sure I took care of it!

[And on that note, he fumbles with the new device, eventually ending the feed.]

[Today, you are greeted by a very tiny Cu Chulainn over the video feed, wearing full armor and toting around a tiny spear.]

Oh my gosh! You guys! This is amazing! Look at me, look at me! So coooooool!

Oh! Oh! You gotta see this too!

[Vanellope redirects the camera at her employees, Cu Chulainn and Tam Lin, who are dressed in turquoise hoodies, candy wrapper skirts, and peppermint striped tights. They also have candy stuck in their hair. Their quiet, displeased looks say it all.]

Isn't this great? [She giggles gleefully.] This is the best ever!

Itchy! Did you get candy in your hair too? I wanna seeeeeee!

The Eighth Move [Video]

[Ciel is surrounded by colorful wrappers and bright packages. He also seems to be wearing an apron.]

Stocking shelves is hardly an effective use of my skills. [It's actually a horrible use of his skills. He is very small - not that he'll admit to that.]

Is anyone looking for someone with business experience? I grow weary of my age being a factor. They act like I'm supposed to be honored to hold this position. How else am I to pay for my necessities?

[He wipes his hands on his apron and walks to the front of the store.]

I am making no progress in this city.

[video, public]
This place is just hilarious. Seriously, I can tell. Barrel of laughs a minute from here on out.

[Phantom Girl has swapped out her black and white costume for a dusty old tan jumpsuit and a whole lot of weird electronic equipment. Actually, she vaguely resembles......]

Apparently, 'helping the city' translates into 'ghost-hunting' today, which is just about the worst use of my superpowers I've ever heard. ...Maybe I need a new costume insignia. Anyway, I'm not egotistical enough to think I can handle everything on my own - I've only been here like, two weeks, and yeah, there's stuff in this crazy place I've never gone up against before.

So! ...Who wants to help me out? I can make it worth your while. Never hurts to have a bona fide superhero in your debt, right?

I've been hearing about this weird castle that turns all spooky at night. In the, uh... Leo district, I think it was? It's pretty recognizable. Lots of gold filigree and that kind of thing. If you think you're game, feel free to meet me there a few minutes before midnight.

I'll totally bring snacks.

((Edit! The action/log portion will be taking place here instead.))

[Video]

When the feed snaps on, there's nobody in the frame - just a massive gun. The feed stays trained on it for at least half a minute before it's moved around to stare Desco in the face.

"Listen up, all you humans! Desco and Miss Nano beat up a big red guy the other night, and Desco stole his gun!"

At this, Desco glances away from the video feed towards the direction of the gun and licks her lips.

"Desco doesn't know what it's made of, but it's the most delicious metal she's ever tasted. So the Final Boss is officially putting out a bounty on ALL of the red guys! If you bring Desco their guns, she will personally see to it that someone you don't like will cease to exist!"

A slight pause as she considers her offer.

"Desco reserves the right to refuse if her target has already brought her a gun. And also if Desco likes the target Desco will probably just kill you instead."

She gives the camera a bright smile, showing off her shark-like teeth.

"Now, if you've got all that, heed the words of the Final Boss and go beat up those red guys!"

Addendum:

The feed suddenly snaps back, revealing Desco once again.

"All Desco wants is the guns. If you can get one without beating up the red guys, feel free to do that instead. Bye bye!"

[002 - video/action]

[When the feed comes on, a rather distinctive looking bounty hunter in her armor is staring into the camera of her COMP through her visor. Though her expression is a little hard to make out, she seems rather pleased about something.]

For those of you who don't know me, my name is Samus Aran. I was a freelance bounty hunter in my universe, and I enjoyed doing contracted work with clients as well as the Galactic Federation, the government in charge of running my galaxy. Recently I requested permission to start taking on bounties in this world, as well as do some freelance mercenary work. I received a bounty hunting license from the government as a result.

[Samus taps a few buttons on her COMP and a transparent digital image of her license appears on the feed, laid over her face as she continues to talk.]

While I'm preparing to offer my services to all those who reside in the city, I thought I'd first take the opportunity to inform the other visitors here in Hinoto-Ri. After all, it is we who will be working together most often, against many common foes.

The mercenary work I'm prepared to give includes, but isn't limited to, security detail, body-guarding, and reconnaissance missions. If you have any tasks you might need a highly trained warrior for, don't hesitate to ask me.

My bounty hunting services are strictly reserved for government requests. This is unlikely to change in the future. If there are any other bounty hunters in the city, however, I'd prefer cooperation to competition regarding the bounties available.

If you have any questions, concerns, or even requests, please contact me and I'll respond as swiftly and as clearly as I can. Thank you.

---

[And speaking of bounty hunting, Samus's full access to the government's personal hit list of dangerous demons and criminals was proving to be extraordinarily handy. She planned to thin out the list to the best of her abilities over the next several months, moreso for the sake of the city's protection rather than for the money.

Unsurprisingly, tracking down one of the top bounties on the list lead her into the heavily demon inhabited Taurus district. For the time being, she was attempting to be discreet, wandering the streets in some casual clothes with her paralyzer hidden on a belt by her hip. Underneath the clothing was her zero suit, ready to call her PED Suit the moment she found trouble.

Her COMP glasses informed her that the Thirteenth Hour was approaching fast. If she was lucky, the demon she was hunting would make itself known during that time... It was doing a rather fine job of blending in with the crowd around her so far.

Dare you approach her while she's working??]

four ☆ video.

[ When the feed's video flickers to life, people watching may notice one of two things: the first being that there's something a little different about Yuri's hair; it's been braided, after all! And the second? She's wearing something that, surprisingly, isn't the uniform from the afterlife.

After coughing into her mouth - it's a fake cough, don't worry! - she clears her throat, finally speaking up, her voice clear, concise, and somewhat serious. ]

Things seem to be normal at least. That means I can finally ask. I'm low on cash, so it seems that I don't have much of a choice: is anybody hiring? I don't mind learning from scratch, but only qualifications for a job is that it has to not kill me and that it's not perverted. As long as it meets those two, anything's fine. That means no cosplay cafes or pole dancing. If you even dare say something that breaks those requirements, well...

[ There's an innocent grin that curls on her lips as she speaks up in a cheery voice, her eyes widening like a child who just got a candy from a candy store. ]

I won't hesitate to punch you in the face, alright?

[ Then she goes back to her serious... or at least, somewhat serious voice as she tosses her hair aside, folding her arms over her chest as she continues. ]

And now that's out of the way... Are there any girls, women, any person, human or not human of the female gender who are willing to go shopping with me? I'd go with somebody-- but the people I know are idiots and are guys and I don't want them bringing up all their perverted, lewd, lecherous comments while I'm trying to get new clothes. So, if anybody's up for it, message me back.
