[Video feed turns on and reveals a genuinely confused guy looking at the screen.]

Uh... Hi everyone. I was supposed to be in a headlock by one of my friends at school and at the brink of death. I know this isn't the afterlife since there's so many times I got real close to crossing that river, so is it some kind of dream land?

Sorry, but will anyone be able to give me answers of where this place is? This watch gave me some info but I'm still having trouble understanding what it's saying.

Oh, I almost forgot. My name's Akihisa Yoshii. Nice to meet everyone.

[So, you all know those transporters, right? You might have used them to transport from one apartment building to the other... or you might have ended up in the pool.]

[And if you ended up in the pool, you can probably find yourself in the video that was posted anonymously today. Probably no big mystery as to who posted it, seeing as that nice stranger was probably there to help you out of said pool. Obviously he couldn't resist, so it's okay to laugh, right?]

[...the music in the background might be a little too appropriate though.]

I haven't seen anyone I recognize { but that doesn't mean they're not here } and I'm a little confused.

It's nice to meet you. { At least she hopes it is. } Thank you for listening.

My name is Ideo, I'm one of the first arrivals here. If anyone has any questions that they have not received answers to, feel free to ask here. I will do my best to answer if I am able to, or at least direct you to someone who can.

[Compared to his previous network post, this is much more brief and much less showy- he's probably hard at work trying to see if he can help with the teleportation fiasco.]

*Watch turns on, and there's our boy -- a slightly lanky, bespectacled guy whose hair is probably the coolest obvious thing about him. He's got a pendant of some sort too; looks like a shield.*

This thing on? Ah, there we go. I figured I should introduce myself right now: My name's Nicholas Reeve, spirit medium and paranormal investigator. Yes, I know how that sounds, but trust me, it's a real thing where I come from. I just figured I'd better introduce myself and get that out in the open so you folks can get to know me better.

*He pauses.*

Or call me a lunatic. Because I get that a lot, trust me. Anyway, yes, I do seances, but it'd be kind of irrelevant for most of you here from what I gather. For now, anyway. A pleasure to meet you all! ...uh, except for the ones I already met, in which case it's more "Hi again."

*Awkward.*

So yeah.

EXCLUSIVE: Teleportation Technology Installed in Libra and Pisces Extraterritorial Guests Apartments
When questioned, the Mayor responded that "This will facilitate Guests to visit each other." The Teleportation device can be found in the 4th level of both apartment buildings. We have learned that this decision has divided the town hall; while most approve, others think this technology would be put to better use for other members of the population, such as farmers for their crops. His critics have also been quick to point out that he may be star-struck by the visitors - after all, it is well known that the mayor used to be Takeru Ryuuji (Red Mask) in the Hikari Ranger Maskman series. However, the Mayor assured us that this teleportation setup is the beginning of a testing phase and that more of them will slowly be installed around the city later on... [...Read more...]

Weekly horoscope
Aries : You might spend considerable time for the purpose of working on a project.
Taurus : Relations with colleagues should be warm, congenial, and supportive.
Gemini :Hold on to your dreams, but keep your feet firmly planted on the ground.
Cancer : You may not be as prepared as you prefer now because other people aren't sharing their expectations with you.
Leo : You feel extra close to your dreams today, but you may be living in a bubble of fantasies no matter how clearly you've been thinking.
Virgo : ut yourself some slack today and give yourself permission to space out, instead of trying to limit your thoughts. Your imagination is your greatest asset now; don't be afraid to use it.
Libra : If you must spend the day with others, you can still withdraw into your imagination while appearing as socially astute as ever.
Scorpio: You may have very particular ideas about activities you want to share with your friends now, but your work might not give you the freedom you need.
Sagittarius : Misunderstandings that come to light in the next few days will make you glad that you strive for simplicity today.
Capricorn: You could be feeling a bit confused if you cannot control your desires now, and they could pull you away from your previous commitments.
Aquarius: You may think you know exactly what you want and how you're going to get it, but this confidence isn't what you're projecting today.
Pisces: Don't try to figure out what's happening now; just enjoy the experience. Untangle the threads in the tapestry of life on another day when things make more sense.

Hi. This is Link from Skyloft. I'm writing this because I've noticed people doing this in Capricorn while I'm patrolling at night and I just want it to stop. If you can read this, you don't have a curfew. So you don't have to act suspicious if you see me in the park at night. It's distracting when people act suspicious for no reason. I have to keep an eye out for people who are out when they shouldn't be and that doesn't include you. Thanks for reading this.

Ah - this thing on? Amazin' the kind of machinery things this city has... Guess I better introduce myself to you fine ladies and gents that'd be lookin' on in, if this things workin' properly.

Name's Virgil Klima, I'm or perhaps the terms' 'was', a Federal Marshal fer the Dakota Territories of the United States of America.

[The face pulls back further, revealing a jauntily placed stetson and long, pointed ears]

So ya can say I'm pretty experienced in handlin' myself around dangerous situations. While I admit I don't rightly know about all this persona talk, but know that if any of ya'll are in trouble, don't be afraid to come to me fer help.

[Miki has only been here for day, and yesterday night's events have left her happier than she could have imagined. But...she suppose she owes someone and apology for her behavior the night before.

Maybe it's the lack of a good night's sleep and she'd not using the camera and post function on the watch clearly, or maybe simply because she's not that great with computers in the first place, but what was supposed to be a private post is unfortunately sent publicly. Regardless, it is a small video of Miki looking like she didn't get that much sleep and she's looking at the watch's camera like it's a small cursed object.]


Hey uh. Arisato. I mean Minato. M-Minato Arisato yeah that sounds better..

Look when you watch this? Just wanted to say I'm sorry 'bout yesterday. I didn't know about the different world things and I just thought you were the Minato from my world.

He was the leader of Strega. That's why I did the...I'm watching you sign. [She says, tihnking 'I still don't trust you that much anyway.']

So uh. I'll stop that. I'm sure you're a nice guy and not an idiot.

[She pouts, trying to think of what else to say and just shrugs.]

Have a good day.

[The video showed a young man sitting outside and, if the background was anything to go on, he was on a roof somewhere. It was familiar for him, he'd grown used to sitting on the roofs to gather his thoughts in the last city he'd been in.

He'd done his exploring, he'd gotten acclimated to how this network device worked, and now it was time to use it.

He didn't expect to find anyone here who knew him, there hadn't been anyone last time, and even if there was someone here he knew, there was no guarantee they'd know him. He knew how this worked.]


Hey, is there any call for defense agents in this town? Um..something like a police officer mixed with a soldier would be my best way of explaining it.

[There was never much call for treasure hunters in the places he went to, and publicly offering reconnaissance defeated the purpose, so he had to fall back on his more recently learned skills.]

I'm looking for a job. Oh...my name. Sorry, I'm Locke Cole. Pleased to meet you all.

[Video]

[A serious-looking girl appears on the network. The video clearly shows the inside of a mostly-empty apartment, and the girl herself is wearing the COMP glasses, eyes quickly scanning - presumably, she's reading something on the network as she talks rather than looking at the camera.]

The people who greeted me on arrival suggested I introduce myself over the network once I moved in. My name is Latooni Suvota. I was...brought to this place without my knowledge, but I'm told this is common here due to some kind of unconfirmed dimensional activity. If anyone could summarize what they know about it, and how this city might be connected to other dimensions, I would appreciate it.

Other than that...I'm still getting acquainted with this place, but I hope I'll be able to help with any problems this city has while I'm here.

Oh, one more thing...

[With a quick and seemingly-practiced motion, the camera angles flicks to Latooni's point of view through the glasses, and she turns her head to look out her apartment's balcony door. Only a couple floors down from where she's sitting is the red, white, and blue head of a humanoid machine, which by all appearances has been left standing in a thankfully mostly vacant parking lot.]

Are there any hangar or garage facilties here that could fit a personal trooper about 18 meters tall?

What are your goals here?

Behind the girl appearing on the screen is the minimalist decor characteristic of the apartment for the newcomers to Hinoto-Ri. The girl herself is shirtless, covered in what look like black tattoos with green glowing borders. Her expression is neutral enough, but one can see in her golden eyes she's far from being happy.

"Okay. Now what?"
