[Kanji is...admittedly really bad at keeping up with the times around here. He'd been way too concentrated on getting his little plush toy booth up and running in the Scorpio district, spending most of the week after his return from the tower in his room, working diligently. Unfortunately, he'd soon realize the folly of his ways and that that it would have better for him to do so, considering the strange events that have been happening all day when he finally did go out...in the afternoon, he finally posted something on the network.]

This might seem like a strange question to ask, but has anyone else be approached by the girls and...older women from the city asking you to bite them? It's freaking me out....

[He had to run away from a crowd at one point. For someone who always had trouble with girls, this is an even worse personal experience. But maybe if he'd actually listened to Yu's dramatic reading, or gone to Junes this week Kanji would have had a good idea of what is going on. Right now, there is only confusion. That would probably change soon.]

*Somebody might've gone to find out why his face was on that book. Somebody might've found out about his book persona.

Sometime later, on pretty much every network...*

I'M MARRIED, FOR CRIMINY'S SAKE!

As you may have heard from my esteemed colleges or seen from the video anomaly, the Mictlan appears to have caused quite a commotion. I have been approved for an expedition later tonight. However, this is to be done without the government's aid. While they appreciated your efforts during the tournament, the media's eyes are currently turned on the Visitors as a whole and if the Anoli found out what was going on, they could use this to their advantage.

Time is of the essence, as there are more and more questions as to where our peers have gone off to. Obviously that question needs an answer.

Do not bother coming if you can't stand up and fight on your own.

[OOC - You can only send one(1) of your characters. They need to be in okay condition on the 1st of February to go, and this has nothing to do with the event happening next week. This log will be rapid-paced for the most part.]

*Some rumors come true, eh? Some rumors. Hmm. Some --

[VIDEO]

You mean all this time I've been talking about rumors about stuff in town and I could've been spreading a rumor I was about to get a million dollars instead?! I don't believe this!

[This new guy decided to lay low for a few days and get his bearings. But now he has to just get on the network and ask. Have a confused-looking gentleman with a somewhat monotone voice and Russian accent pop up on your screen.]

I know that I'm new, but... is the weather always like this here? Or is something strange going on? Since I got here, it's been unbearably hot one day, then unbearably cold the next.

I suppose I have a lot of questions, but that's the one that really jumps out at me right now. I'm just wondering if I should be getting sunscreen or a parka...

[The communication starts with a hissing sound, like you'd hear in a low burn, and then focuses on the source of the noise: two skillets being set down on the burners of a stove. Around the counter viewers can make out cooking ingredients: a stick of butter, margerine, salt, eggs, chocolate, a whipping spoon. After a few seconds Hikawa begins to speak.]

As odd as it might seem to introduce myself in such a way, I would like to take a survey. A survey dealing on culinary tastes, you might say, to see what people would prefer.

It will be a simple choice focusing on two types of simple egg dishes. Most people seem to enjoy eggs, whether they be scrambled, poached, sunny side up, or what have you. But now matter how you might enjoy them there is a single base for all of them: butter.

[On camera the man takes a knife and, cutting a part from the block of butter, puts it into one of the skillets where it begins to melt.]

Not only does butter add flavor to the egg, but it keeps it from sticking to the pan and being burnt. But for the sake of those who perhaps don't like butter, let us try another substance to take its place. Let us say...chocolate.

[Hikawa breaks off a chunk of the chocolate in front of him and puts it in the other skillet. It begins to melt, sizzling a bit. Afterwards Hikawa breaks four eggs, putting two in each skillet and stirring each one as he continues to speak.]

While one might experiment in cooking, cooking also has rules that in the end cannot be denied if you want a satisfactory meal. You can replace some things in a dish, but you can't replace others, and if you go to far in your experimentation you make a dish none can enjoy instead of all.

So tell me. Which would you prefer. The eggs made with butter-

[He focuses the camera, showing a skillet of neat, well-made scrambled eggs.]

Or the dish made with chocolate?

[The other skillet, however, is not fairing so well. Much of the chocolate has burnt and stuck to the sides of the skillet, while turning the eggs it has mixed in an ugly brownish color. It seems to have failed as well to keep the eggs from sticking to the pan, as much of the eggs themselves is burnt into the metal of it, leaving streaks of white and yellow gunk along with burnt brown.]

Is there anyone else here from my world I should know about?

To everyone else: I'm sorry about the loud, screaming goddess you just heard. She has this stupid thing against humans where she wants to wipe them all out. Just ignore her. Even if she is being really loud.

[The screen flickers on to a boy wearing an amused grin.]

Everyone!

I've got good news! You're forgiven! The angel I summoned said so himself; God would definitely forgive you in a heartbeat because man's heart is weak, as is his mind, and we're all, uh, susceptible to the workings of the Evil One, and even as we wallow in our filth and sin, we -- You know what, forget God; I forgive you.

Seriously, no one could possibly blame you for what happened last week even if some of us were lucky enough to be scorpion magnets. Misery has it right - the important thing is to make sure that it doesn't happen again. If you all missed the announcements from the higher-ups, the people who were affected most severely were Scorpios. ...If you don't know what that means, in modern times on Earth - that's the 2000s - they were born when the Sun was in the sector of the sky dominated by the constellation Scorpio. This makes no sense if you were born outside Earth or in a time when we didn't go in for ridiculous things like pretending arbitrary sky-pictures meant anything about our lives, but the important thing is that the sun transitions into Scorpio beginning on October 23rd.

Guess what last week was.

The next sign is Sagittarius. The sun will shift into its sector on November 22nd.

So let's clear a few things out of the way - Everyone who was afraid, can you report in with your sign? Same thing if you were a scorpion magnet, though maybe that's more of a subjective thing. And everyone who's a Sagittarius, do you mind if we tie you to your beds from November, oh, 18th-ish to the 23rd? Your choices are (Yes/Of course/Definitely). If your name is Jun, (That's kinda kinky) works, too. If you don't know your sign, Sagittarius goes from late November into late December - so the end of a harvest season into winter in the Northern hemisphere, and the end of spring into summer in the South.

I'll keep track of the data. It's kinda my thing.

Oh -- this has nothing to do with anything, but I'm working in the computer labs of the university now. Drop by if you ever need anything fixed or if you just want to say hi.

[Eikichi what happened to your eyes...or your entire face.]

This is going to be fun.

all_wound_up

[The feed flicks on to show a rather panicked looking teenage girl in a Japanese high school uniform who seems to be trying pretty desperately to hold it together - at least for long enough to find out why she's suddenly found herself in unfamiliar surroundings.]

Um... I'm very sorry, but I seem to have gotten lost and ended up here by mistake. Could anyone point me in the direction of the Shinonome household? I really need to get home in time to make dinner tonight.

[There is a sudden light clicking noise, like small gears turning. Nano's eyes go wide for a moment, and she quickly points the camera toward her feet instead.]

Ah... if anyone can help me, I would appreciate it very much!

[ Like a true Persona protag, Naoya wakes to find he has spent a ridiculous amount of time asleep. He has settled into his apartment, but finds himself otherwise confused (not to mention, he has the worst case of the yawns...).

While not too bothered, he does recognize the use in getting caught up with what he has missed, which is why he appears on the video screen. ]

It looks like I've been out of the loop a while.

[ He runs a hand through his messy hair and then shakes it out. ]

Can anyone catch me up?

[ ...yawn. ]

[A serene-looking woman sits before the camera, cross-legged on one of the tiny couch-futon-hybrids they put in these apartments. Some people might recognize her from the other night, though she's currently not wearing the big hooded brown robe, but instead a cassock-like tan garment.]

I've met some of you other "Extraterritorial Guests" already, but for those I haven't, my name is Meetra Surik. I'm a traveler here, like we all seem to be, and I seem to have gotten even more lost than I thought I was - and I was heading somewhere with no real maps in the first place.

So, my request to the network is...tell me about Earth. We seem to be on Earth, and most of the people here seem to be from different "Earths"...which I guess could mean a kind of planet, but from context, it sounds more like multiversal theory turning out to be true. At any rate, I'm new to this planet, so please, tell me all about it. In return, I'll share what I can say about the Galactic Republic, where I'm from. Deal?

akihisaful

[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.

((ooc: Would a mod be so kind to add his tag into the tag list...? ;w;))

[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.]

[[ooc; Feel free to mix and mingle reactions, or call Yu out on capturing you all in your water logged glory.]]

sky_child

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.
