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?

[On the network, a video feed starts up from one of the watch comps, pointed directly at the face of the user. Said user happens to be a woman with blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail, wearing a futuristic looking armored suit. Her helmet is currently off so that her face is visible on camera.

It appears that she is sitting in a stark white hospital room, with several doctors nearby reviewing clipboards and storing samples of... are those vials of glowing blood?

Speaking of glowing, the woman herself happens to be glowing slightly blue all over, and there are dark blue veins running along certain areas on her face.

When she's positive that the feed is working, she begins to speak.]

My name is Samus Aran, from my universe I'm what's known as a space hunter, a hired mercenary and bounty hunter primarily working for the Galactic Federation. One of my missions recently left me infected with a radioactive substance known as Phazon; my body is currently producing Phazon at a steady rate, and the city's government feared that my condition may cause harm to civilians, so I have been in the hospital for the past two days while tests were being run.

As I assured them, and as they confirmed, my condition is not contagious nor is it outright harmful to either myself or any others that I come into contact with. I now assure you that there is no need to fear my condition, and I'm taking great care to make sure that I keep it under control.

[To her chagrin this might mean regular check-ups at the doctor's.]

As a warning, my body and my suit are irradiated, so radiation detectors will go off if I come near them.

I'll be happy to answer any questions or concerns regarding my condition, but first I would like to ask if there happens to be anyone from my universe currently residing in the city. If you are at all familiar with the Galactic Federation, whether you are a part of the Federation Police or military, or whether you are simply aware of their presence as the law enforcement of the galaxy you are from, please let me know.

[More information? One new arrival, at least, has all the information she needs. The influx of energy from this one is massive, completely unsubtle, almost as if purposefully designed to attract the attention of anyone with any sense whatsoever of the divine. It doesn’t fade away nor does it seem to be easily localized. This surely wasn’t ‘Magatama Energy’…

Whatever ambiguity this might present is cleared up almost immediately. Despite that no one may be in the vicinity, the voice of a young girl sounds clearly throughout the city of Hinoto-Ri to nearly every inhabitant, as intelligibly as if the speaker were standing right next to those she addressed. …Perhaps too intelligibly. The first sound they hear is an vehement, despairing cry.]

NO!

This can’t be…! The forests… The oceans… The deserts and mountains, the tundra and the plains! W-Where are they?! Who did this?! What did you do to them?!

[For a few moments, the speaker seems too overwhelmed with ire to speak. The sound of her breathing eventually slows...]

Humans. Look at this world. Look at it!

I knew this would happen. In every world across every dimension, it doesn’t matter! You -- you’re all the same! See for yourself! This is what will happen if you tear through all of nature without respect for anything but your own wealth and gain! Are you happy?! My children… 100 million species. One hundred million. There's almost nothing left...

I am Viridi, Goddess of Nature, ruler of the Earth and all living things! And I will not allow this land to be desecrated any further.

They say there are monsters ravaging what remains. If you stand against them, then... heed the command of a goddess and CRUSH them!

Hello, everyone, and good evening.

[Typical lab background, typical labcoat- the only odd thing about Ideo today is that he's still sporting a bandage around his forehead.]

I wanted to formally extend an offer of employment, in light of all that has happened as of late. The Sagittarius Labs are dedicated to research and development in relation to demonic incidents- and we're looking for anyone and everyone who has any history in this subject, or even those willing to learn. I've spoken to the others, and we're in the process of contacting people for a job fair of sorts...but, well...

[Ideo gave an awkward sort of laugh.]

I figured I would get the jump on the competition? Speaking of, I have at least one hire, I know- Mr. Hotsuin, any time you can stop down, I can give you your COMP upgrade.

That is all, thank you.

[The video shows Brainstorm working on things - with a rather harried pace, and looking as annoyed as someone with no actual mouth can manage. When he starts speaking, his voice is gushing annoyance and bitter condescension all over the place like a busted fire hydrant.]

Really, would it be too much to ask all you raving lunatics to calm the hell down and stop acting like morons?

Or failing that, those of you who are still sane, do the rest of us a favor and knock some of these fools out. Really, it'd be for their own good.

[He was gonna do voice, but the video probably flipped on on accident. And Daichi's looking much

much

more distressed than usual given the way he's grimacing and his hands are clamped over his ears.

And that's saying something.]

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!

[Wherever the hell he was, it wasn't his apartment and his demons were currently fighting to over his sorry ass.]

Aaaugh... sh-shut up--! Shut up!! Damnit-- whatever that Orpheus guy was talking about I th-think he was right--! This whole city's doomed!!

exceedinglydramatic

DOOOOOOOOOM!

DOOM COMES FOR US ALL! LET LOOSE THE DOGS OF WAR, THE SKIES SHALL RAIN WITH MOBOCRACY AND THE DARKEST FIERY PITS SHALL CRACK OPEN, OUR SOULS FORFEIT!

[He stops to take a large breath.]

( Lots more of bold text after this, and a message from the seven. )

Hey, so... I was thinking... These Persona things are kind of supposed to be us, right?

[He sure was sounding pretty unsure there. People that had seen him around could deduce that this was definitely nothing new.]

What if your Persona doesn't really fit...? Like, fit who you are? Do you think something weird happens?

An armored figure glowers out over the Hinoto-Ri COMP network

"I found the actual combat skills displayed recently at these so-called persona fights somewhat lacking. You may understand how to use your sorcerous.... things, but if you need to learn how to fight with bullet, blade, mind and hand, seek out Cerberus. I shall instruct you on how to not completely embarrass yourself when asked to fight."

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.]

--on? I don't think I'll ever-- oh, it says its recording.

[Lizzie pulls away from the camera so that her face is visible, but she's holding it at an odd tilt, betraying her lack of knowledge with technology. For one brief moment uncertainty flashes in her eyes, but then she is smiling politely and speaking confidently.]

Good day, everyone. I hope this finds you well, and that you've been able to settle down properly. My name is Elizabeth Middleford, and, like you, I've been brought here very suddenly from my own time and world. There are some things I've noticed that I'd like to ask about, now that I have the chance.

Firstly, is there anyone here that was taken as far back as the late 19th century around Queen Victoria's reign? I was taken from the year 1890 and I would very much like to make the acquaintance of anyone who was from that time, or any English gentlemen or ladies in general.

Secondly, seeing as we have several young ladies like myself in this city, I would like to extend my hand in friendship to you all and suggest something of a boarding house for us to live or spend time together in. In my time, boarding schools were meant to give its residents a sense of community with each other, as well as offer emotional support. I believe many of us could benefit from that in this city. If anyone is interested, I'll see to finding us an appropriate building and other such business things so we can all be settled comfortably as soon as possible.

[She pauses, and then a fierce blush rises over her cheeks despite her efforts to remain composed.]

Lastly...as I am from an older time than most, I find that my outfits and dress are...well, equally as outdated in comparison to the other ladies here. A-And I am very, very sorry and ashamed to bring up such a private and embarrassing matter over such a public forum, but I will need help getting dressed in the morning. I, um...I need someone to lace up my corset, you see, it's very difficult to do on one's own, my maid Paula usually did it for me back at home...but as Paula isn't here, I would be grateful to any young lady who could spare a few minutes every morning to help lace me up.

[Cheeks still burning from humiliation, Lizzie gives the camera a small nod before fumbling and turning it off.]

Hello everyone! ＼（＾∀＾） I hope you've all settled in well!

My name's Minako Arisato. I've talked to a few of you already, but for everyone else, it's nice to meet you!

Now that things have calmed down a little I was wondering - how many of us were Persona-users before coming to Hinoto-ri? I think it might be good to meet and compare notes if we haven't yet, see what's the same and what's changed. And maybe we could also make a list of people with experience who can help with answering questions or training, or things like that! Just jumping into using a Persona can be pretty daunting...

For everyone else - what do you usually do for fun? Some of the things I like are music, volleyball, cooking... If we have enough people who like the same things, maybe we could even form a club! I wouldn't mind having someone to play volleyball with again. Or to go out to karaoke! (ﾉ´▽｀)ﾉ♪

Anyway, that's all for now!

( Private to Shinjiro )

[My name is Mahiro Yasaka. Through a twist of fate or something like that, I've involved myself with a silver-haired girl who claims... has long since proven herself to be Nyarlathotep, the Crawling Chaos. After being kidnapped into a new, videogame-like world, I was kind of conflicted as to whether I would lose contact with her. There's just one problem...]

[I didn't even get to finish that thought before she appeared again.]

Nyaruko, take it back!! I wasn't even born twelve thousand years ago.

Everyone, if you saw a silver-haired girl announce anything lately, she wasn't telling the truth. Please don't take her too seriously...

[Can he overcome Nyaruko's slander by trying to talk about less embarrassing things? Rebel 1!]

My name is Mahiro Yasaka. I'm just an ordinary high school student [no such thing], so I'm at a loss understanding this place. Can anyone please give me the essentials in three lines?

odiousking

[A young man clad in armor turns on the COMP. He looks into the camera with certainty in the audience beyond the lens. Despite his appearances, the technology doesn't seem to be an incredible challenge to him.]

My name is Oersted, a knight of Lucretia. I have been summoned here just as you all have for one reason or another. From this day on, I may either be your colleague or rival depending on where our paths take us.

It is for that reason I have called to all of you besides mere introductions.

I wish to know what all of you intend to contribute to this city in our coming days. You are all willing to fight when expected, yes? Then what reason do you have... besides being asked? And what is your reason?

... You may refrain from answering if you wish. This is just a way to satisfy my curiosity, nothing more, nothing less.

[The video clicks on, revealing an individual in blue and... lighter blue armor. He smiles at the screen, before continuing]

Hello everyone... my name is Mega Man X. I don't expect this to mean much to the majority of you, but I'm what's called a Maverick Hunter. We deal with reploids... err, basically sentient robots that have decided to rebel and threaten the rest of society...

... There's a bit more to it than that, of course, so I'll just cut to the chase. I'm a peacekeeper, so I'll do everything in my power to ensure the safety of everyone living here.

[X smiles again, only this time it's a bit more obviously nervous looking]

It seems I arrived after a bit of excitement went down... I wish I could have been there to help everyone. Rest assured, if anything like that ever happens again, I'll do my best to help put an end to it.

Ah, also... I'm staying at Libra 8-02, and if any of you live near there, I wouldn't mind meeting my neighbors. [soft chuckle] Additionally... would there be anyone out there whose familiar with doing maintenance for high-tech machinery and equipment? I can get by on my own for a while, but I'm no lab tech...

I suppose that's all. I look forward to meeting all of you.
