GENIUS INVENTOR FOR HIRE

Yo! Listen up Hinoto-Ri Visitors! Name's Lash, I am a Commanding Officer, Scientist, Inventor and all-around Wunderkind of the Black Hole Forces in Wars World.

And...I'm bored!!!!!

I have no idea what to do, so in an attempt to cure this problem, I figured that the most logical way to scratch that itch would be to to ask all of you if you need something built! Name it, I'll do it! Guns, tanks, rayguns, deathrays, machine guns, semi-automatics...

[She goes on listing a bunch of weapons of mass destruction. Lash seems to specialize in that type of thing...]

And I can repair stuff too! I'll even throw a few things extra as a bonus!

[...This can only end terribly.]

How do you handle being alone?

[She's been here for two weeks and yet she should be happy. There's more people around, no crazy experiments or monsters, or anyone suffering a lot. But Sora...she feels out of place somehow. Perhaps it's because she hasn't seen her home in nearly two years or that no one from Fortuna managed to get here either, being rather worried.

Seriously, what the hell is with these sudden feelings of suck?]

Heeeey, is this thing even on? How am I supposed to even tell if it's on?

[ It's definitely on, and Chie's on camera. Just your average short haired, kung fu loving steak addict. ]

Listen up! I have a question I totally need answered.

Has anyone ever seen two copies of people? Like, there's one, who knows everything you know, and then another who doesn't?

[ Chie's not exactly a wordsmith, she's better at kicking people. ]

Oh, and does anyone know where I can get the best steak in the city? This is very important, I haven't had anything as good as Aiya's beef bowl since I got here!

[ Maybe some manly boxer will be able to point her in the right direction. ]

[ Yuri decides to turn on the feed, if only because she has some several important questions to ask several people regarding this place. And some not as important things. ]

So, Hinoto-Ri.

It seems that you just brought me in just in time for a very special day. [ That special day is actually tomorrow, and it's her birthday. ] But that's not really important right now. Anyway, I'm Yuri — the leader of the Shinda Sekai Sensen, otherwise known as the Afterlife Battlefront. I got here recently, so I still have some important questions to ask.

First and foremost: if there's anyone who's any good at sewing make sure to contact me right away, either through this post or my inbox. We can talk about the exact details in private that way, after all.

Also, I'd like to apologize for any problems some certain idiots who are wearing this emblem. If they've caused any major problems, however, I'd like to know about them.

[ And she'll actually show the emblem that's stitched onto the arm of her outfit to everyone. Hopefully they really haven't been causing any trouble.

... At least besides the commotion that happened when she first showed up. ]

And last but not least: does anyone know what forms these 'Personas' can show up as? It's important that I know for sure.

(ooc: just wanted to say that replies will be slow and many of them will probably be backtagged!)

It's taken me too long to post this. Sorry about that.

Anyway, my school, the Knight Academy, showed up in the city weeks ago. I've been trying to get everything in order and save up some money since then so I can open it to the public. I think it would be a good place for people to learn things like swordplay and archery, especially since we have a sparring hall dedicated to practicing swordsmanship. There's a few rooms available for people who want to stay there. It's not a lot, though. Three of them are already taken, so I have...five left. We have a kitchen, so anyone who likes to cook can work there. Oh, and teachers. If you're interested in teaching swordplay or archery, I'd love to hear from you... I don't have a lot of money to offer, but I can give you something, at least.

If you're interested in anything I wrote, just respond to me here. Thanks!

Before our great leaders or some overly sanctimonious citizens decide to deep clean for the sake of some city beautification program, let's get a little proactive! Has anyone had a chance to grab photographs of the lovely murals around the city? Please don't say you grabbed video of one on this network. We all know it has a rather biased set of viruses. (Not a knock on you, Miss *Hyun-ae; we all know you try your best.) Since I'm sure that this skirts the line between legality and the no-no line (encouraging terrorism? Moi? Oh no, never!), let's keep this more or less sanitized. Please don't be stupid enough to upload your picture to the network. Instead, a location and a description of what you saw there will do. Discussion of the symbolism is all right, if you think you can get away with it. If you don't think you'll be safe communicating through this network at all, but you'd still like a description of your mural here for posterity's sake, please feel free to contact me through my inbox and I'll arrange something with you.

[[ ooc: inbox link now edited to something less not his ic inbox am sorry ]]

Hey guys, I think we may have our first real task here. I'm sure you've seen the graffiti all over the place, right? I think if we take time out to go and help clean that up, then it'll look good in the eyes of the public. If we can work together with some of the natives too, that'll help us get to know them better. So I hope your scrubbing arms are prepared! Let's go out there and make a difference.

( And then, a little extra: )

aurathread

No matter how many monsters I beat, I can't level up. I know this isn't The World, but since I'm in my body from there I should be able to level up, right?

It's not working and it's really annoying.

There aren't any quests or events to do either. It's annoying.

imthegoodguy

Is there some sort of database containing information about this world? Things people like us have figured out or knew beforehand. I've found scattered bits of information here and there, but something more centralized would help, don't you think?

[After spending some time looking around town, talking with locals, and efficiently gathering information, Fumi's ready to introduce herself to the network. Except it's not so much an introduction as a combination lecture / interrogation. She doesn't have time for idle pleasantries - there is a new research topic afoot. Her face is expressionless as she launches right into her diatribe.]

Persona.

A concept first introduced by Swiss psychologist Carl Jung in the early twentieth century, described as 'a kind of mask, designed on the one hand to make a definite impression upon others, and on the other to conceal the true nature of the individual.'

[Dry and pedantic, just like she likes it. Although at this point, her features take on a hint of frustration.]

I have vague memories of having heard this word shortly before waking up in this city, and given the rather abrupt nature of my arrival, I feel safe in assuming the word holds a more significant meaning in this place than would normally be suggested by traditional psychological terminology. I've also gathered that I'm far from the only person to have arrived in this way, or to have experienced that vague dream upon arrival.

So, Hinoto-Ri, what can you tell me about the Persona phenomenon, and what is the most efficient way to awaken one? Please make your responses as brief and concise as possible. I may have found my next research topic.

[The woman smiles before ending the feed and waiting for responses.]

tyrantball

The feed snaps on to reveal a little girl with horns and three eyes staring into the camera, her face twisted up into an angry sort of scowl. Without any preamble, she launches into an angry tirade.

"What is the corrupternment here doing?! Desco is getting fed up with how badly the political process is being mangled in this town! It offends her pride as a former senator!"

She crosses her arms over her chest and harrumphs angrily.

"Desco made a standard speech and used all the normal political boilerplate, and the humans she was talking to became a mob! And not even the useful kind - it was a panicked mob! Mr. Green Hair said that it was because Desco scared them!"

She starts gnawing distractedly on the tip one claw, still scowling.

"What is going on that the humans here are afraid of the political process? It's stupid! Next you will be telling Desco that the officials are elected or something, instead of just overthrowing the previous regime!"

Current Mood: irate

When the video starts, one will see Shoutarou standing outside of a pool hall - he adjusts his hat a bit before speaking.

"Hello, Hinoto-Ri. The name's Hidari Shoutarou, and I'm here with some news for you all, and a couple of questions.

To start, a rather unexpected thing has happened - whatever strange powers surround this place have seen fit to bring my detective agency building here. I suppose that means I'm stuck here for the long haul, I may as well start offering my services as a private detective. Just come see me in Pisces district, at the Narumi Detective Agency."

There's a pause, then Shou frowns and huffs. "...of course, whoever brought it here has a hell of a sense of humor, and put it across the street from the other Narumi Detective Agency..." The camera jerks, and points to the other one for a moment.

"The city's still working on getting power connected to the building, but I'm gonna call it open for business anyway now that I've moved in."

He clears his throat, and looks just a little more serious. "As for the questions - has anyone here heard of the Transmigration 9? It was where I was before I wound up here. Just wondering if any other crewmembers are here. My other question..." His face turns a bit awkward at this point. "...does anyone have any advice on taking care of a kitten? I've dealt with an adult cat that knows how to behave already before, to a degree, but a kitten is outside my experience."

nemophila

I assume you have all educated yourselves on what Philemon's intentions and goals are for this city in his latest charade, or you would not be wasting your time humoring that ludicrous and insipid excuse for literature.

Now, what about Nyarlathotep? Have any of you figured out anything about his plans for this city, or are you more concerned with petty child's play?

selfgodded

[Oh look who it is! It's your resident, deluded God. It seems they have crawled out of whatever hole they had been hidden in for the past month, looking just as thoughtful as ever]

Hello, Hinoto-Ri. A lot has occurred recently, hasn't it? I heard there had been a mystical journey to an alternative world! I wish I could have gone. It would have been amazing to see the denizens of the other world, to see how they lived and acted... differences occur in different worlds, as Hinoto-Ri is-

Oh, my apologies. I have rambled.

In any case, I am certain that many of you have discussed the events that have passed extensively between yourselves. My discussion is of a trivial, yet very important matter! A recent conversation has made me ponder over something that still eludes me, and relates to my previous comments on how my world, and Hinoto-Ri, are very different from one another.

What is fashion?

I did not know what this was when first arriving here, but I have read and researched the subject, and fashion seems to be a very important cultural and social aspect of humanity! Just having the correct clothes, worn in the correct way, with the correct brand allows you to climb the social ladder with ease! I don't really understand it, but the concept of it fascinates me!

I would love to hear your opinions on it! Let us begin a discussion!

misogynistic

[Locked away from the IT, especially Rise's damn mouth.]

Sheesh... All this Junes Invasion stuff has really gotten out of hand for the police!

[Behind Adachi is another officer trying to calm down a rabid fangirl. It isn't working out too well.]

But before that, I guess I should introduce myself! I've been having to go around town a lot, especially since all this mess started, yet I don't remember doing too much introducing and whatnot... I'm-- [Seriously? One of the girl's sharp yells cuts off Adachi, and he glances behind him.] --ah, hey! Come on, you can't just headbutt an officer!

[Adachi grimaces.] ...I better make this quick, then. I'm Adachi, and... [More and more keeps on happening over his shoulder.] Don't worry about this mess. We've got it covered!

[Yet, he still nervously glances behind himself to check up on it before back down at his COMP.] Y-Yeah, you can count on the Hinoto-Ri police! Now, if you'll excuse me... [However, a few seconds before he cuts off the feed, the sort of riot isn't settling...] H-He-- [Then it blacks out.]

[OOC: If you could answer his permissions, that would be awesome!]
