cykedfists: DO NOT STEAL (Gotcha!)

[It takes Athena a while to figure out how to filter this, but eventually she figures it out. Once she does, she just grinned at the COMP.]

Hey guys! So I have a favor to ask everyone.

Apollo's birthday is at the end of the month and I know there's still time to do this, but I feel like I should at least start planning. I really want to throw Apollo a surprise party, so I would like to invite everyone to it once it does come. I also would like any help if any one is willing to help me set it up. If not it's cool. I can handle it.

My other purpose for this is that I need ideas for a birthday gift. I have an idea of what I would like to get him, but I don't think it's possible to get it here with no job. Any ideas would be really helpful, though.

[That being said...]

Oh, now that I'm thinking of it and I have you all here.... I'll eventually look for a more permanent job, but is there any odd jobs I can do to earn some money around here?

Any help would be amazing. If you have anything, get back to me. Thanks!

[With that, the feed ends.]

Hello, this is Agatha Heterodyne.


[She's getting right to the point on this one.]


I'm looking for volunteers to join me on an expedition to investigate the ruins in the Gemini district. It's likely to be dangerous, so I'd prefer people with some combat experience. But the trapezohedron was found in that ruin, so I think it'll be worth the trip. Let me know if you're interested.


[She's about to go back to adjusting one of her dingbots when she remembers one other thing.]


And on a side note, the people I gave those experimental weapons to still haven't reported back. Did they work well enough? Did you experience any difficulties?

[Kaguya is making one of her rare appearances over the network today. This time, she's showing the interior of her small apartment, which is starting to look pretty cramped. Between all the decor, clothing, bonsai, and other miscellaneous things, it's clear that she needs something bigger. Which is why she's appearing on the network.

Cramped or not, she doesn't seem to look irritated or anything. As always, she's almost eerily calm.]


Good evening, fellow residents of Hinoto-Ri.

Today I have but a simple question I need answered.

How might I go about obtaining new living arrangements? As you can see, this is inadequate. Something akin to what I possessed back home would be preferable, if at all possible.

Thank you for your time.

[You all missed Isabelle's smiling face, didn't you? Of course you did. Which is good, because tonight she's on everyone's COMPs to make a special announcement!]

Good evening, everyone! I hope you're all enjoying the warmer weather and looking forward to spring as much as I am! The birds are chirping, the flowers are blooming... and just like the flowers, our city is slowly coming back, too! Thanks to the Visitors' help, electricity has been restored to the entire city, and the subway system is almost fully operational again. There are still some buildings that are damaged, but with everyone pitching in, I'm sure we'll be able to get everything fixed up soon. So let's all roll up our sleeves and do our best!

[Bro is bored. Real bored. Not that he misses the insane hectics from the Medium too much. Nah, it's his old life that he misses. His apartment, his stuff, his brother... Lil Cal's a great bro, but there's nothing like your own flesh and blood bro.

Either way, a bored Bro is a Bro who's prone to pulling ridiculous stunts.]

[Faris appears in the frame tossing a red-tinted crystal shard.]

Y'know, if we were all chosen for this I figured I'd try something.

See this crystal shard here?

Well, long story short it lets chosen warriors get powers and skill from long-dead heroes or something like that. I dunno whether it'll work for everyone, or anyone really, but why not?

[A few seconds of silence later...]

...Oh yeah, I've only got five of 'em so act quick if you want one. An' I expect 'em back.

[A very flustered-looking Apollo Justice is on the camera today, his hair points drooping every which way as they are prone to do when Apollo is in such a state. Apollo speaks rapidly, apparently not caring if he has to repeat himself or if he sounds unintelligible.]

Wh-what happened?! It wasn't March when I was last here! What am I doing back here, and more importantly, does anyone know how I left?!

[Deeeeeep breath.]

Prosecutor Blackquill! I know we didn't get to talk much when we first met, but I know who you are now! If you're still here, that is.

Can someone catch me up on what I've missed? A rundown on everything from December onward would be great. Also, has anyone seen Genevieve? You know, the redheaded pixie who was following me around after her trial?

[There were many things that Kanji didn't like bringing out in the public. One of them being that he knew of Ted's...-ahem- tendencies to latch on to girls, and he didn't want someone like Nano disappointed. I mean, it's not like he considered her a friend or something (but yes he did. Running an inn together does that.) He just wants to make sure that his little fuzzy friend's real serious about this. So a little after he's had this conversation, Kanji attempts to send a private post to Teddie...but fails. Someday. Someday he'd realize he can change the settings properly.]

Ted.
Is it true? 'bout you and Nano...

[The tone of his voice is very much 'you better not be kidding around.']

[The feed switches on to the sight of one (1) agitated lineface and her uncle, seemingly poring over Jack's COMP. Agatha looks a mite bit more irritated than usual, and Jack... looks like he's lost in concentration.]

...There is no shame in asking for help - ah, especially since the COMP already appears to be on. How did you even manage that, Uncle?

I... ... I don't know, actually. All I did was touch a few things over here... [Jack points, dejectedly, off to one side of the screen.]

... [Siiiigh.] I - Seriously?

[She shakes her head and then nods at the 'camera' as it were.]

... At any rate, er, hello network. I am Agatha Sheridan, this is my uncle Jack.

[Jack waves a bit, perhaps a little over-eagerly.] Uh... hi. This is kind of awkward.

Perhaps you have already met us. We have a request. Uncle has been here for several months already and still cannot operate the COMP properly. [She glances over to Jack, who looks back at her with a lopsided smile and a soft 'eheheh...'.] ... I'm not really much of a teacher, so if someone could explain how this thing works to him? I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

[Quietly, sounding more like a whining child than a grown man, Jack adds:]

This is so complicated, I don't see why they can't just give us cell phones...

((OOC Note: As this is a joint post, note that Agatha or Jack may answer! Expect potential threadjacking, etc. etc. etc.))

[ She's been sparse with using this network of things for help, but from her recent adventures in the 13th Hour, she's realized it's inconvenient to not have an unlimited stock of ammunition and guns to throw away at her expense. It's not quite 'normal' to go up to someone and ask for a gun or bullets. She still had the appearance for a kid, even if she had gone through so many Aprils.

It's down to this, then. ]


What's the easiest way to obtain ammunition? Also, I'd like to know how easy it is to find a job. I imagine any rounds will cost money no matter what and I currently do not have the resources to purchase them at the moment.

Thank you for your aid.


[ And now, to wait. ]

I have been in this city for a little over a month. So far, I have met a great number of humans, and others who, despite appearing similar to humans, are something else entirely. I must admit, this is something that interests me. What sorts of creatures live in Hinoto-Ri? What manner of anatomical diversity can be found here? I would appreciate any and all information available.

[This is the kind of knowledge that's crucial to someone like him, after all.]

Additionally, I would like to encourage anyone reading this to visit my humble bakery, Death By Chocolate, located in the Virgo district. My work may be a recent addition to the city, but I strive to offer the most delicious baked good that can be bought. Thank you kindly for your attention.

[Really, he shouldn't be using this detestable thing. Some of its functions are helpful, but the babbling and barking of the masses, not as much. Still, there is something on his mind, and he has seen enough to know that there are some people who come here from worlds very different than his own. Even Hinoto-Ri's laws had needed studying before he could even attempt to practice law. Perhaps there is some measure of knowledge amongst the filth here.]

What is "truth" to you? And how far would you go to pursue it?

[Of course, he knows full well whom this message could reach... but he'll try to ignore that person just the same.]

[A visibly distressed Sasha Fyer appears on the screen, her red eyes even redder from crying. Her voice hurried and panicked, she says:]

Has anyone seen a little fox-like creature around here? He's yellow, he's got a white muzzle, red fur coming out of his ears, and a red tip on his tail. He responds to Fei. If anyone has seen him, please let me know! He's a creature called a Pact- no, a Pokemon! A Pokemon, that's right!

On a related note, does anyone know if a girl named Kotoha is still around? She helped me get Fei in the first place, so I'd like to talk with her, too...

A boy in a tight-fitting black T-shirt appears on screen and fiddles with the camera for a few minutes before it all looks satisfactory to him.

"So, um. What do you do for fun around here? Aside from going to Taurus, fighting the monster that go bump into the night and eating all the pizza you ever wanted? The jerks guarding Taurus won't let me in, there's no way I'm fighting monsters and I am getting sick of pizza.

Also, does anyone know if there's a ballet school around here? I've tried looking, but it doesn't seem very popular..."
