This city is starting to resemble London. [Monsters prowling the streets at night... Ah, how nostalgic.]

Even defending yourself may not be enough. [Isn't he helpful? There is even a positively diabolic smirk on his lips.] The monsters of the night can learn your weaknesses no matter what you do.

[He rests his cheek against his hand, looking...well...tired. After seeing his Persona (or Personas), he hasn't been able to sleep. He even has to suppress a yawn behind his hand.]

Then again, perhaps the monsters control this place. [It would explain his painfully familiar Persona(s).]

None of us are safe.

Hello, everyone! \(=^‥^)/’

I have a request for the Network today. I don't know if there's enough time for this before the tournament, but I fight with a naginata and it's really conspicuous to just carry around. Since we have some great engineers here, I was wondering if someone would be able to design a naginata that could fold up or retract to fit into a handbag. I'll pay you for the trouble, of course.

And also in exchange - Well, not really in exchange, because this part is open to everyone! But the tournament uses Evokers, which is a pretty different style of Persona-summoning from usual. I use an Evoker normally, so if anyone would like to practice with one, or practice with a Persona in general, I'd be glad to help out! I'll be down in the Capricorn ward if you'd like to meet me there.

And, that's all I have for today. Thanks for reading!

[Really, local media? Really?]

Why would anyone write something like that? Who cares about that kind of thing, anyway? Shouldn't the media be focusing on something more important? Something that actually matters?

... and are there really people out there looking at my-- watching me run?

Cut it out.

[...yes. Yu is smiling. A huge, completely rare, hardly ever happens for no reason smile on his face.]

Yosuke...

[...he can't even say anything, because if he does, he's either going to start cracking up or give his best friend all the sympathy. So for now all he does is lift his hands and start applauding.]

"Why was such information as "Sexy Visitors" and that downright confusing novel excerpt deemed necessary to broadcast when we have an impending crisis on our hands?"

This is only the second time Locke has addressed the network directly, but it's important, and that can be seen in his serious expression.

"Considering the recent announcement about the Prix and the Anoli, and the willingness others had in wanting to help, I've decided Hinoto-Ri might benefit from it's own branch of the Hellsing Group. I worked for a branch in my last city and it seemed to help there whenever a threat arose."

He pauses. This isn't like him at all...but, then again, this whole idea's embarrassingly new to him, so he keeps his doubts out of his face and voice.

"The purpose of Hellsing is to protect the city and it's inhabitants from demons, monsters, and other people looking to do harm. While we do need combatants, we also need people who are more brain than brawn. He need Field agents, people who can do research on things the field agents will be facing to make them more prepared, and we need strategists to put it all together.

If you'd like to help but prefer to work alone, we hire contract agents as well. You'll be associated with Hellsing, but work when you want and get paid when you do.

If you do work for the group...I can promise the hours will be flexible and mostly up to you...what i can't promise is that it won't get messy sometimes."

Another pause as his mind races to make sure he got everything.

"Hellsing also offers protection for anyone who might need it, the base is protected by magic and we'll offer you any assistance we can. Anyone can work for Hellsing, so long as you're a visitor. If you haven't unlocked your Persona, or if you don't really know how to fight but you want to help, we'll train you.
...if you have any questions, let me know, I'll be happy to answer them."

He smiles and ends the feed.

Only to start it again a moment later.

"We talked before about this...I could really use your help. To be honest, I only have half a mind of what I'm doing."

[Bright and early on the morning of the fifth of January, Cloche's network feed clicks on. The camera bounces with her steps as she walks down the streets of the Pisces Ward with purpose. She doesn't know quite where she's going yet, but she's clearly going somewhere. And she's very clearly furious.]

Good morning. [From Cloche's tone of voice, this is not a good morning. This is a terrible morning. This is a morning that's clearly out to ruin the rest of her day with a trashy gossip magazine.] If anyone else on the COMP Network has received a copy of the January 4th, 10AC issue of--[Here, her expression twists into one of distaste.]--"Teen Beats Magazine," I demand they delete it immediately. It is a lewd and slanderous piece of trash that besmirches the good names of no less than twelve of the Guests!

[Including Cloche herself. Oh, she's going to ring somebody's bell alright. But absolutely not in the way that the article implies.]

As for myself, I'm attempting to locate their offices to demand they take down their-- lascivious article at once. No forms of consent were given. Permission was not granted! They have no legal standing to drag our names through the mud. I absolutely won't stand for it!

[Click! Well, it's pretty obvious someone doesn't have a good sense of humor about being included on the Sexy Visitor Watch... Cloche and her, ahem, two good friends are marching up, in person, to vehemently protest the article and complain loudly to whoever runs the magazine.]

[Hey it's one of those newcomers on the Network today! This particular girl is sitting with perfect posture, dipping her head in a polite bow to the camera.]

Hello, my name is Aoi Misato. I'm sorry for not formally introducing myself before, but it took me a few days to settle in.

According to the news report that recently went out, we will be allowed to participate in the Grand Prix, correct? I'm interested in joining the competition, but to do that I would need to practice first. I still haven't awakened my... Persona yet, so I will have to rely on my own abilities instead.

[She continues without even missing a beat, completely glossing over that small stumble. She's obviously used to speaking publicly.]

I will be in the Capricorn district, so if anyone is willing to be a sparring partner, I would be extremely grateful.

[A small pause here. She can practically hear half of her friends from home scolding her for this, but...]

I also have noticed that I am exempt from curfews due to being a visitor. I was thinking of patrolling at night - does anyone have advice for dealing with the demons at that time? There was a... similar situation where I come from, so I would like to do what I can to help here as well.

Thank you for your time.

[Action; Capricorn]

[And sure enough, Aoi is indeed in the Capricorn district, dressed in a hakama and armed with a naginata. With no current sparring partner, she is instead practicing strikes on an invisible opponent. She definitely has the technique down, if nothing else.]

[The feed, ironically, opens with a pixie. However, given she's wearing a labcoat, it's probably Ceu.]

Good afternoon. I do not want to interrupt everyone's...recently acquired subjects of fervor, [The tournament.] but Sir and I have a request to those who have experience with demons, or taming in general. If you could respond here with your specific skills, this would be appreciated.

[The entire time she spoke, Ceu stayed stiff and formal.]

Also, to those who did not receive responses to their request for employment, we apologize for the delay. However, there was a pressing matter we were required to aid with, which still has Sir's attention even now.

Thank you for your time, and attention. Ceu out.

[A bow, and the feed cut off.]
