[Oh, would you look at that. It's someone who hasn't been in the city for a short while.]

Hey, whoever's in charge here, I liked going home and everything, but can I have a warning next time? It's way too sudden to just pop!- and you're back home, pop!- and you're in Hinoto-Ri again. I didn't get to make any travel plans at all!

What'd I miss? Who's new? Even if you're not new, if we haven't met yet, we should get to know each other!

[Midori's back in full stride.]

[It's been over four months since Bro had that unfortunate incident with Jack Noir in the Medium. Four months since he arrived in Hinoto-Ri, because apparently that's the only damn place he gets to go. From one monster-ridden videogameish hellhole world into the next.

What sucks most about Hinoto-Ri is that there's a severe lack of Striders. In fact, ever since his alternate universe teenage self left, the city's gone even further below the minimum of required Strider. He knows Dave can take care of himself, considering Bro taught him pretty damn well, but there comes a time in every dude's life where he misses his family.

Especially when said family is prooobably still stuck in a monster-ridden videogameish hellhole. Lil Cal's a great bro and all, but talking to yourself can get old after a while.]

so.

you guys all have family back home right? siblings and parents and annoying aunts who like to pull your cheek even though youve grown to be twice their size? grannies who send you itchy socks for christmas each year?

so tell me about 'm. who do you miss most?

would you have 'm here if you could?

deathboss

I miss Paris...murders aside, it was quite an interesting trip!

Oh la la, it was the height of fashion, oui oui?

[Eikichi you are terrible at this.]

[When the COMP is switched on, you'll see a close up of Athena's face. She was obviously in a good mood.]

Hey hey hey! Guess what everyone! Today I'm officially 19!

It's weird... I don't feel any older, but I guess that's normal. Would anyone like to hang out today? If anyone is interested, just let me know.

'Kay bye!

[And just like that, she turned the COMP off. ~~Apparently, it's also "throw a policeman at Apollo" day according to tumblr.~~]

badluckhealer

[Aggie looks - pretty close to upset when she shows up on the feed. There's some hints that she has been crying (puffy and reddened eyelids, etc.) and she's really struggling not to resume crying.

When she speaks, of course, the reason for this becomes painfully clear.]

I...I am aware that my uncle Jack was - b-better at socializing than I am, so...he's probably got more than a few friends who s-should be told this.

[She swallows and tries to continue, but her voice is shaking all over the place.]

... All evidence points to Uncle having been returned home. I am very sorry.

E-excuse me.

[She turns off the feed in order to get the next fit of tears out before anyone replies. Old habits die hard, after all...]

stringent

I demand to speak whoever is in charge!

[ the woman on the line, despite her rather harsh tone is looking as calm as she possibly can. the only thing revealing franziska's anger is the way that she clenches her sleeve, as if indicating that she doesn't have time for any of this nonsense. ]

Abduction is a criminal offense. I fully plan to prosecute the fool who dared to take me, a von Karma with the full force of what that entails!

[ there's the sound of a whip and the flash of something in the background hitting the wood desk in the standard Hinoto-Ri apartment very hard. she doesn't look happy at all and it shows openly now. ]

My father is dead. You will not extract any ransom from him. The von Karma estate is held by me, so asking my brother will be of no use either. If I have to negotiate a fee for my release, then so be it. I refuse to talk to these kinds of lowlifes in a normal circumstance however since all that has occurred in my flawless memory is waking up in this barely adequate apartment, I feel I have no other choice but to use this... device to hear the kidnapper's terms.

[ franziska won't even mention the dream she had. it is not relevant. however she is painfully reminded of one of her cases, and she involuntarily clutches her shoulder again, remembering the pain of the bullet once there but cuts the feed soon after ]

demifemme

It's overcast today, but it's actually above freezing! Which means of course that Shura has shed her hoodie. The image of the camera shows her from the waist up wearing only a black and blue sports bra.

"Hey Hinoto-Ri! Good news! The doctors are okay with me taking up running again! Bad news! I need a running partner in case my knees give up on me during the run. Anybody willing? I run at dawn around Pisces. You gotta feel safe around demons because I have a demon fan club that likes to cheer me on. Reply if you're interested!"

deathboss

[When the view pans up, a very tired...and annoyed Eikichi sighs overly-dramatically.]

It's terrible! I need serious help here!

[He them moves the camera over to a giant creature taking nearly half of the kitchen, its tail reaching right into the bathroom. It looks fairly unimpressed with the fruit in front of him, and also bored.]

Koi's been turned into this...giant thing ever since we were in the temple, but now I have no idea what to give him as food, and he takes up so much place!

I didn't know fish puberty would hit him so bad!

[Although he does approve of his new color. Not that he'll talk about that.]

prettytamer

[Have you ever seen a dolphin trying on a wig at the costume shop?

Now you have, because Midori thinks this is hilarious enough to snap a picture of and put on the network. It's a long blond wig, for the record.]

Today is turning out great already!

primordial

[The face on the screen might be familiar to some, but maybe not so familiar to others- Sam Erstwhile isn't exactly the most outgoing person in the world, after all. He's just sitting back in a chair, clothes as bedraggled as ever, and in the background, one can see the blurry shape of...well, Desco.. Hard to believe he's be living in the same house as her, really.]

Uh...hey. Long time, no see. I-I'm still not really used to going out and making public posts like this for the network, heh...

[He drifts of a little awkwardly, before he scratches the back of his head.] Oh, um, anyways, I was just a little curious. You know fairy tales, right? Like, Little Red Riding Hood, or Cinderella, or The Firebird...if you don't have those in your world, well, they're short stories that are told to kids about things like dragons, princesses, magic, and whatnot. Some of them are even told with morals in the story, so people could learn what to do and what not to do just by listening to the story. For example, one of my favorite ones is Hansel and Gretel...two children go into the woods and find a house made of candy. The witch inside wants to eat them, but instead, the brother and sister find a way to destroy the witch before she does so...

[There's a pause here, and his expression sombers somewhat before he speaks again.]

So, I was just wondering. What kind of stories do you have back home...? Everyone comes from different worlds, so, I thought it would be nice to hear what kinds of fairytales and folklore people grew up with. What are your favorite stories, people of Hinoto Ri?

[He lets out a slight huff, looking somewhat pleased with himself. In the meantime, he'll just find all those books about him and Phantom Girl's Valentine Day exploits and will be trying to destroy them by throwing them all in the river, thank you very much.]

all_wound_up

[Nano's been pretty quiet for the past week or so. She's still been going to school every day and working at the inn, but she mostly keeps to herself, and has been going directly home afterward. Those accustomed to seeing her out and about during the 13th Hour helping to fight demons will find her conspicuously absent. So it's perhaps a relief to anyone who's been wondering or worrying about her that she's finally back on the network, doing her best not to look as sad as she feels.]

U-um... would anyone like to come over for dinner sometime? Or... or maybe I could have another party or a sleepover at the inn? Would anyone be interested in that?

[It's clear something else is up, but she's trying not to focus on that.]

cykedfists

[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.]

worked_through_labor_day

[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!

stridercentric

[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.]
