Hi! Sorry to be a bother, but I think I need to ask for a little help when it comes to summoning my Persona for the first time. I'd probably just do it like anyone else, really! It's just that doing it the normal way would be a little more dangerous than it usually would be.

Anyway, if anyone with an Evoker and some time on their hands could meet with me, I'd appreciate it! If any strong fighters could afford to hang around, just in case, I'd appreciate your help, too. I don't know if it'll be necessary... It depends on how Evokers work, I guess. If worst comes to worst, though, I'm going to need someone to help me calm down.

I don't know how I can properly repay someone for doing something that could be dangerous for a stranger, but I've saved some money if you'd like to be paid that way. I can also owe you some favors if you don't mind.

Thanks.

001 ☆ Sora [AU3] ☆ Video/Action

[So there's a certain spiky brown-haired kid sitting at a table in Junes' food court. It certainly looks like Sora. He's got a small smile when the video feature kicks on. Though there's something a bit off about him as the visible skin looks pale.]

So...hi. My name's Sora and I just got here a few days ago. I've been kinda adjusting. Thought this place might've been something else actually. [A nervous laugh and he scratches the back of his head.]

Anyway, Neku told me that some people were here so if the word "Facility" means anything to you, you should come visit. I'm having a burger at this giant store called Junes.

[Awkward silence.]

And uhm, I noticed that there are some familiar faces here that might know me. It'd be great to hear from you.

[It's followed by a long pause, a frown and quiet muttering:] How do I turn this thing off again?

[Action]

[Anyone who comes to see him in person, will find him sitting at a table by himself outside. An empty burger wrapper stuffed into a fry container and a half-full cup sitting on a tray in front of him. He doesn't seem to be in a hurry, just relaxing at the table.]

[Video] [The Yosuke Hunt]

[Otoha looks a little frazzled right now. He's kind of annoyed at something but it is unrelated to this topic. Anyway. He clears his throat and talks to the camera.]

So uh. I got this request thing from that - ... woman at the Velvet Room. Caroline? Right. Anyway, I'm looking for the other two people here named Yosuke.

[...]

I have to ask you a question or... something... yeah.

[Okay, turning off the video. ... It occurs to him that he could have just looked them up in a directory or something. ... He's already embarrassed himself. Whatever.]

oh look another post about school [text]

The school year just started, right? Can't believe it's already spring again...

[Well uh, "again" was kind of a relative term since he certainly hadn't been here for a year but still.]

But it's not REALLY mandatory to attend here like it is at home, is it? At least, maybe not for us, they said it wasn't necessary a little... Besides, we've gone this long without it, right? I don't know, with everything that's gone on, I just feel like it's kind of pointless. I'd much rather spend my time helping out around here. Though I guess I haven't done much of that lately...

Maybe we could just skip straight to University? Except I wouldn't know what to study anyway...

Augh! Work is for losers! ヽ(●-`Д´-)ノ

[Video]

[Zoë has figured this thing out pretty quickly - she wouldn't be a modern teenager if she couldn't, after all. It's weird, and different from her PDA, but it's okay. She grins at the camera - the hospital can be seen behind her, so it's pretty clear she's in Leo ward.]

Hey! I'm... new here, I guess? I have no idea where I am. I tried asking someone what planet I was on and they just gave me a weird look. It's not Huckleberry because it doesn't smell like goat, and it's not Roanoake because it doesn't smell like farts. So... where am I?

Please tell me I didn't end up in some unexplored region of space because my mom is going to kill me if I did.

[Action/text] Little girl lost

Action:

[Akane is exploring the apartment building in the Pisces district, looking for her room. She's got her visitor's card out, to check the room number, but she's gotten waylaid looking at all of the other things in the apartment building. She's especially excited to find out her room is next to the greenhouse on floor five. After she's done in there, she opens the door to her apartment cautiously. But then she hovers awkwardly in the doorway, unsure.]

Do they really let people live here for free...?

Text:

[Later, after getting settled in her new place, she turns on her shiny new watch. She's going with text. That way, no one will know she's a child. They should take her more seriously that way, right?]

Does anyone have time to answer some questions? I'm new here.

video; open to action; backdated to monday

[The feed opens up to three girls crowded around in front of it, looking as if they were trying very hard to keep a straight face. At first one wouldn’t think too much of a couple of friends gathered around together, especially on a day like April Fools, but upon closer inspection, they all have the same face. The hair is different, one being a redhead, one black haired, and one blonde, but their facial construction and eyes are spot on identical, almost as if they were a pair of triplets. This theory is supported as they open their mouths to speak, and each of them sounds exactly the same, save a few quirks in their tone here and there. For those that know of the girls well, there is no real indication that anyone is anything but who they appear to be.]

H-hey everyone! Not sure if we’ve all had the chance to introduce ourselves yet. My name is Kairi...

Video/Action

[Action; Scorpio District]

[It's the first night of the Firefly Festival, and Fumi's out to observe the light show. To anyone who's just met her for the first time since her arrival in Hinoto-Ri, it's probably a bit of an odd sight. She's sitting on a small hill overlooking the festivities below and just watching the fireflies dancing through the air and lighting up the night sky with their brilliance, laptop nowhere to be found for a change.]

Ah... it's so amazing...

[The smile on her face and the sparkle in her eye are like nothing she's displayed since coming here. She really seems to be genuinely enjoying herself, just sitting idly by while she takes a moment to enjoy the scene.]

[Video; 13th Hour; Leo District; locked to Yamato and Miyako Hotsuin]

[As the feed flickers on, Fumi's face is illuminated by the light from her COMP. The room she's standing in is dark, so it's rather hard to see what's behind her.]

Chief. Miyako. You're both going to want to see this. Meet me in the Leo District.

second ♫ video

[It's after school on Friday, and Nagisa has the afternoon off from her part-time job. As such, she's sitting on the outside steps of 0048 Stage when she makes this particular video post.]

Hi, everyone! This is Nagisa Motomiya.

I know I wasn't even close to the driving force behind the concert last month, but I hope everyone enjoyed it. I was really happy that this theater - 0048 Stage - got here in time. It's an important place from my home, and...well. I'm an understudy member of the idol group AKB0048, and this is our theater. Our mission is to spread music and art everywhere we go, with a smiling face. With that in mind, I want to say that the doors to this theater are always open for anyone who wants to perform.

[Nagisa pauses. Time to talk about what she was asked to do in the Velvet Room, but she's a little nervous. Still, she's thought this through, and she thinks it will be okay.]

I...I kind of had another thing to talk about, though. I was wondering if maybe some of you that performed at the concert might want to record something together sometime? I don't really know how record labels or all that work, but there's a studio inside here, and I was thinking that maybe we could release it as a single or something and have the proceeds go towards more Native-Visitor Alliance stuff, or the people from the Anoli attack, or something like that. I want to keep using that momentum for good, you know?

I've been doing some research in the archives here, and there are a few songs in 0048's repertoire that could work for that, but I'm pretty open to suggestions. If anyone wants to, that is!

Third Star of Fate ☯

[Video]

[The feed starts up with a slightly sheepish-looking Aoi. This... may have something to do with the large gate behind her.]

So... It seems my house has appeared in Hinoto-Ri. It's strange seeing it here instead of in Tokyo, but... I've been in contact with the government and they have agreed to pass the ownership over to me. It will take another week or so before it has electricity, so I will be moving here then.

However... It's a large building, so I'm not sure if I can take care of it by myself. [Understatement.] So, I thought I would ask the network if anyone here knows how to maintain a garden, or would be willing to help me with housecleaning. I can't offer much in the way of money, but there is plenty of space if you don't mind using a futon. I would be happy to offer living space in exchange for help around the house.

If you're interested, just contact me through this post or through my inbox. [A bow, and then the feed ends.]

[Action; Libra Ward]

[So yeah, there's a large building in Libra ward now, and has been for the past week or so. But today, the gate is open, and Aoi can be found walking through the familiar rooms. If your character seems interested, she may just give them a tour!]

002;; video/action available in Libra!

[School papers in hand and Hinoti-Ri ID on his bedside table for personal reference, Otonashi clicks the feed open on his watch. Dark circles lining his eyes, ruffled hair and a more unkempt shirt tell the story of a boy who either stayed up all night or who consistently hasn't been sleeping as well as he should.

He glances back to the ID card, over the name listed on it. Without that piece of information, he wouldn't even be able to fill in the first name section.]

So, ahh... this school thing... What if you don't know where to start? [There he goes, ruffling his own hair again.] Ugh, that sounds weird.

Wh-what I mean is... if you don't remember where you left off in school, what can you do? Oi, I don't even remember my birthday... [Paperwork: everyone's nemesis, but doubly so for an amnesiac.]

-- action option;

[3:00 A.M is an unreasonable hour to be wandering around outside of his apartment, but he's craving a drink—not tap water or coffee—and since sleeping is not happening, he might as well. Feel free to bump into him or yell at him to go to bed, but good luck with the latter.]

[TEXT | ANON]

[Considering a certain request she received, Miyako was stuck on how to handle this. She’s not the most social and outgoing of people. She is active, but Miyako knew very well she’s not the best possible person to advise that man about this. She only accepted the request for her own reasons.

But the request...after a thought, she typed up a post and put it on the network. Anonymously of course. Miyako doesn't want her name or face attached to this at the moment. If she's going to fulfil the request, she would give it her best and do it with all the possible information at hand.]

How do you get someone to be more social and active?

And get them to pick up a hobby?

☆ 003 ☆ Video

Hey Hinoto-Ri. There's a little something I need help with.

[Shiki then shows this little guy on the feed]

This is Mr. Mew. He's a cat.

[She puts the cat plush away and shows a new stuffed animal on the feed.]

Now, this is Buta. He's a pig.

So, it's pretty clear, right? [She holds both of toys in front of her so that they can be seen on camera together.]

This is a cat.

And this is a pig.

Caaaaaaaaaaat!

Piiiiiiiiiiiiig!

[She heaves a breath, satisfied. Putting the toys away now.]

Hopefully, there won't be anymore confusion. Right? [beat] Neku Sakuraba?

[Video]

These past weeks Ruri has been working on figuring out how the comps work and how they can interface with her system and her nanomachines. Today, her ship's computer is using that research to prank her and the system. Throughout various times of the day, an eppisode of Nani Nazi Nadesico (ex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6AymaTvfXE ), the Gekiganger III Movie (ex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q59R_TLcH1E ) or this music video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrEbxQ23F70 will randomly play then the line will go dead from Ruri's comp while she's still working on going over line after line of code, blissfully unaware.

"Omoikane, I'm still getting oddities with the language."

[Action; Morning]

On the way to Sagittarius, Shura is checking the messages of the anon topic on her COMP, not paying attention to her surroundings, and trips as she gets off the tram. The content of her school bag spills on the floor of the busy station. Help her up? Point and laugh? Walk over her to get to school?

10th Screw [Video/Action]

[Video; morning]

[The video feed clicks on to show Nano excitedly bouncing on her heels, smiling brightly and waving at the feed. She's wearing her blue and white spring school uniform from home, and does a spin in front of the camera to show it off.]

Good morning, everyone! It's the first day of school! Isn't it exciting? I'll be attending Andromeda High School as a first year starting today, and I hope to see a lot of you there! Maybe some of us will even have classes together!

[Action; Andromeda High School; throughout the day]

[Nano is probably the only one in town quite this excited about school starting up again. She can be found merrily strolling through the hallways, bag full of textbooks at her side as she makes her way to classes. In class, she is a very attentive student, taking copious notes and always nodding seriously at everything out of the teacher's mouth. At lunch, she's got a homemade bento with the sausages cut up into cute little octopi shapes and all sorts of other cutesy culinary tricks, and is definitely willing to share with anyone who doesn't have enough to eat. And after classes are over, she takes her time walking home to the Pisces apartments, meandering through the city and enjoying the warm spring air. She's happy to talk to anyone and everyone who's interested in making a new friend throughout the day, although she's probably still a little too shy to approach on her own. Still, though, the day is full of promise!]

[Video; evening]

Oh! I'd almost forgotten! I went to the Velvet Room the other day and asked Igor-san for a new Persona! He told me my power was growing, and that he had just the one for me. It's the Easter Bunny, in celebration of the holiday. I'm going to meet him right now!

[Nano calls out 'Persona' just as usual, expecting a cute and fluffy little companion. Instead, what she gets is this ridiculous monstrosity, which shows up and immediately begins laughing and cavorting about. Nano lets out a scream, and the feed flickers a bit before dying out entirely. She'll, uh... probably be all right.

April Fool's from the Velvet Room!]

4th Whistle [audio with some text]

[Man, Blues should just... not use the network. Or at least stick to text with his own questions, because today his latest addition to the network starts with lots and lots of awkward silence.

Before it's broken by him saying one word.]

Uhm... Cats.

[Wow. That.

That was dumb.

The audio is quickly shut off, because really. Really. He knows that it was dumb, so let's try something else.]

Anyone who was interested in going under the city with me? It's post-poned for now.

... also I think there are some animals in the Libra apartments that need a new owner, I haven't seen their owner around in a while. And I can't take care of them all.

[he noticed his cat lady neighbour has gone missing so... Blues kinda has been trying his best to take care of said cats to the cat lady, and well. May as well see if other folks are better suited to watch some cats.]

{ Someone else is feeling under the weather. Dagger woke up this morning with a cough and a desire to stay in bed. Thus forgive her if she sounds stuffy and/or her words are punctuated with a cough or two. }

I know this might sound silly...

But does anyone know a good story? It doesn't have to be long. I just... { A sigh. She's feeling homesick today on top of being sick. } I don't know. I feel a little sad today.

5. Text, PSA | Not even bothered to be locked from Minato

Attn: Ladies especially

attached: minato.jpg

My brother Minato is recovering from mono! That means he's still contagious. So if he takes you out somewhere, don't kiss him, even though he's cute. Or share straws or chopsticks. (And it might be good to wash your hands if you touch him but try to do it quietly because he's sensitive.)

But he is getting better and he's been sleeping all month, so if you see him you should say hello and get to know him! He's a really nice guy when he isn't full of germs. ヽ(*≧ω≦)ﾉ He likes music and listening to people talk to him, and he'd really love to make some new friends.

[This post comes with only the best of sisterly intentions. Minato may love to sleep, but she'd seen how grumpy he'd gotten with almost a month of enforced bed rest. It was time for him to get out and meet new people, and what better way than to give him a ~~not-so-~~gentle push?

Whatever her purpose was though, it got a reaction. Minako didn't bother to wait until her brother was asleep again to post, so not too long after her PSA goes up, another message quickly follows from a somewhat embarrassed and rather annoyed Minato.]

Please disregard most of what my sister has posted here! Except the part about mono.

But I'm not sensitive, and I'm not looking for anyone to kiss right now. [He has a kind of sort of girlfriend here, after all.]

Though I guess if anyone knows much about playing the violin or likes running, it would be nice to find someone to run with a few times a week when I'm better.

[It feels kind of weird asking about that, but... without Akihiko, running and keeping in shape is going to get lonely, and he doesn't know if the school has a track team. So, even if he is annoyed with his sister for starting all this, he... is kind of slightly grateful. And he might as well take advantage of it to ask about a running partner, right?

Besides, maybe there's someone else out there who plays the violin or something, too. He missed the concert due to illness, and he regrets the chance not to find some more people who play music.]

[Text] [Anon]

Once upon a time, there was a little kitten.

[A picture of a kitten appears.]

The kitten loved to play, and she spent her days running around the city, trying to find other kittens to play with. Instead, she found a little girl.

[And the picture of the little girl appears.]

The kitten loved the little girl, and the little girl loved the kitten. But one day a group of bullies showed up.

[This picture of bullies could be better, but shh.]

They teased the little girl, and taunted her for taking care of something so small and weak. They ripped the kitten out of her hands and tossed it down the alley. The kitten was okay, but they beat up the girl.

The little girl had to recover for a long time, and the kitten found her way home. She sat outside the window of the little girl's bedroom, but her father had forbidden her from letting the kitten in.

[Sad kitten in the rain…]

By the time the girl could get out of bed, the kitten was still there. But the kitten was dead.

So who's the wrong one in this story? The kitten, for trying to reach out for help? The girl for not being able to protect the kitten? The bullies for beating her up and hurting the kitten? Or the father, for not letting the kitten in?
