[The COMP video flicks on, revealing Naoya sitting in a chair, looking rather pleased with himself.]

Good evening, Hinoto-Ri. This is Naoya, and I'm here to announce a new functionality for your COMPs.

For the past few months, I've been working with the Wands department of the government on a Demon Summoning Application. There were some delays due to... unforeseen circumstances. Some of you may have COMPs that do this already - I'd ask that you bear with me while I explain for those who don't.

Demons, quite simply, can be negotiated with. You can bargain for things, whether it's with flattery, money, or items. But there has been no way for you to summon them to your side in battle, until now.

Now, if you meet a demon you are stronger than, you can form a contract with them. The terms of this contract are up to the two of you, though money tends to be a solid bet. The application on your COMP will allow the demon to be processed into a special kind of data and stored in your COMP. This process is not at all harmful to the demon, before you ask. When needed, you can simply open the app and tap their image, and the process is reversed, summoning them to your side.

... Most demons dislike being summoned for trivial things, though. Just as a warning. The sorts of demons you can contract with will depend on your own ability - they won't listen to someone who's weaker than them.

That's about it. If you have any questions, ask them here or send them to my personal inbox.

[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.~~]

[Kaguya's been fairly silent on the network lately. The reason for that becomes somewhat clear after just a moment. Behind her appears to be the interior of a temple, although it certainly looks more home-like now.

How could Kaguya not decorate it? Well, with what she could currently afford, at least. She seems rather pleased when she begins to speak.]

Good day to you, citizens of Hinoto-Ri. Thanks to the suggestion of an acquaintance of mine, I have taken up residence in the old temple located in the Aquarius District.

It's really quite lovely.

[A dramatic pause.]

Therefore, I believe a celebration is in order. This Saturday, I will be holding an open house. There will be plenty of refreshments, and I hope all who attend will bring their cheer and good spirits with them.

[ She's been sparse with using this network of things for help, but from her recent adventures in the 13th Hour, she's realized it's inconvenient to not have an unlimited stock of ammunition and guns to throw away at her expense. It's not quite 'normal' to go up to someone and ask for a gun or bullets. She still had the appearance for a kid, even if she had gone through so many Aprils.

It's down to this, then. ]

What's the easiest way to obtain ammunition? Also, I'd like to know how easy it is to find a job. I imagine any rounds will cost money no matter what and I currently do not have the resources to purchase them at the moment.

Thank you for your aid.

[ And now, to wait. ]

[A certain minty-haired Visitor is on the screen today, his arm around the shoulders of a brown haired kid who may be familiar to some. Judging by the voices in the background, there’s about four people in all, even if they aren’t all visible on the camera ~~yet~~.]

Hey! Lately, people have been coming by the Detective Agency thinking it’s functional again. At first we turned down requests since we’re obviously not detectives, but...

Well, maybe you should say it instead, Ayumu?

[Ayumu is pretty much resigned at this point, though his expression clearly seems to have some doubts about the wisdom of this idea. They were a bunch of kids and a tanuki, after all. Who’d go looking to them for help?]

This was your idea, not mine.

[There’s some yelling from off-screen.]

But it sounds like fun!

[Ayumu’s response is muttered.]

If anyone’s even interested...

But it’s like being a super-awesome spy!

[While they keep bickering amongst themselves, a certain assistant waltzes up to the feed and waves in that wonderfully cutesy fashion of hers. Yup, it’s Hiyono, alright.]

Ahem--what they’re trying to say is, we’re now open for business! I’ve even set up an inbox for you to send all of your requests to~

Right, right. And you were going to spread rumors too, weren’t you, Hiyono?

Mm-hmm! [The agreement is punctuated with her ever present smile -- and wait, is she proverbially sparkling as she does?] To be honest, I haven’t really worked with rumors that come true, but I guess there’s a first for everything, right?

[The look on the brown haired teen’s face is just a little wary. Ayumu could only imagine how much she was going to enjoy that….]

Well, you heard them. We’ll take on jobs if you have them in our spare time.

[There’s suddenly a tanuki squeezing his face into this shot. ~~Except he’s in human form but whatever.~~]

Just try to make them interesting ones!

[Joint post! Responses will come from one of the four or more: Ayumu, Hizumi, Hiyono or Taro. Lots of threadjacking will be happening, most likely.]

W-What happened to all of my saves?! I found a Legendary sword yesterday! A Legendary sword. Do you guys know the chances to proc a Legendary drop?! It's like, 1 in 8192 kajillion! Probably higher! I could go the rest of my life without ever getting another one!

This is totally not acceptable! I demand compensation! Whatever Hinoto-Ri is doing this time, I'm not gonna stand for it! Who's with me?! Do you hear the people sing singing the song of angry m --

[beep bloop beep sounds in the background]

...

Uh.

Never mind, it dropped again from the same enemy and probably after the same number of RNG rolls or whatever. 'K, false alarm, everyone can go back to their daily business.

I've got a new sword to test; you guys'll have to figure this one out yourselves.

How do you celebrate a birthday?

[ after all, she's been in the hospital for so long she can't remember the last time she's had friends to celebrate them with. on top of that... she doesn't even remember the last time she's experienced january. it's about a week late, but with the festival having gone on, she completely forgot.

perhaps she should be more specific about her question. ]

[It’s that time again! Although it’s already a little different from the usual post. Instead of opting to post anonymously as usual, Hizumi has gone ahead and kept his name attached.

Shock and surprise! Golly who could have ever seen this coming?]

Subject: Astrology & Event Docs
Attached files: amd.doc, emd.doc

It’s been busy, but since I see we have new people here, I would like to remind people that the Astrology Master Document and Event Master Document are still around. Since both of them can be edited by anyone who has the file, feel free to add anything you know to them as long as it’s relevant. I have backups of the files so I can restore them if I have to, but I don’t want to do that all the time, so try not to mess it up too badly, got it?

So you guys know which one is which:

Astrology Master Document or the amd.doc is for collecting any information related to astrological signs and their meanings, as well as details of events surrounding attacks by the astrological demons. If you want to get an idea of how people have been affected in the past by their astrological signs during those times, check here!

Event Master Document or the emd.doc is for collecting any information on other, non-astrological based events. So, stuff like suddenly being unable to tell a lie, or groups of people being abducted to strange places. That kind of thing.

If you have any questions, you can also use this post to discuss as usual!

And since I'm here... I might as well point out that the arcade is having a special discount on two hour game cards. If you're up to date with your studies or already gave up on finals, come pay us a visit!

[Private to Atsuro and Otonashi]

Regarding the things my Shadow said - well, none of it really matters at this point, so I'd rather not talk about it. The main point is, I'm not going to kill anyone, so there's no problem. I don't think I need to say this, but just to make sure, I'd prefer it if you don't talk about it with anyone, myself included.

trainwrecking

[Audio]

[The (strategically chosen) audio feed comes in grainy, but the sound of unrestrained crying rings clear. The boy chokes; incomplete words stumble over themselves, dying just past his lips to make way for another agonized sob.]

H-he took my-- the only person w-who ever really loved-- who ever loved me... H-he killed m-my... my most precious p-person...

The other m-me killed her...

[He sniffles, the sound wet and gross.]

P-please don't let that... t-that thing have another chance to live... He's keeping himself alive by hurting others..! [The feed clicks off quickly, cutting off his last cry.]

[Introspective]

[It's a pain to act like this... But you've been revived from death, what? Twice now? I think it's my turn. You're not even fit to keep yourself alive.]

hachitaro

[The video flicks on, though all that's seen is a mouth and nose cast into spooky shadow by a flashlight.]

So hey, Hinoto-Ri. You wanna know a secret?

Of course you do. People always do, huh? Wanted to get all of this out in the open. We're friends, right? Of course we are.

[His tone doesn't seem to leave it up for much debate.]

So let's see, where to start? I mean some of you know I'm a demon already, huh? That's enough for a few of you to hate me. And the fact that I made a poor, innocent family think that they had a loving son.

( Cut for mention of child death. )

Oh, and where I abandoned the family that raised me? That was pretty funny. They're all dead now though. Everyone dies eventually. That's what happens when you get old. I'm sure you all will figure that out eventually.

Except for the ones of you who won't because you'll be dead. But whatever!

[The video clicks off.]

the_tv_is_a_lie

[Sometime on the 16th, after this trainwreck happens, something goes up on the network, along with a little note:]

( Cut because this turned out bigger than I thought )

If you encounter anyone that resembles you and has golden eyes...please, whatever you do, don't deny them.

That is all.

[If he has to repeat what the little flow chart says for itself, then you know it's serious...]

bondsofsuffering

[Audio]

You know, I've been thinking...

[Well. This is out of the blue. He continues to speak, his voice especially light and easy today.]

Hinoto-Ri isn't such a bad place, when you get right down to it. It gives a lot of opportunities you might not have had before - if you were sick, you're healthy. If you were dead, you're alive. You can do pretty much whatever you want! Philemon himself said we won't remember anything that happens here once we return to our worlds. We're technically here to save the people of Hinoto-Ri, but even if you don't do anything, there aren't any real repercussions. You'll still have a roof over your head whether you help or not.

That's a lot more than most people get.

I like it here! Sure, things could always go wrong - but that's fine. I've finally got a shot at living, not having to worry about getting sick or killed... It's about time I embraced that!

[There's a pause, but it's not hard to get the sense that he's got a satisfied grin on the other side of the feed despite the heaviness of those words.]

Ah-- Also, before I forget. Apparently there's another me going around. If you spot him, try and message me, will ya? He's probably harmless, but I think we should probably have a talk.

thatsasecret

[Introspective]

[...What a strange place she's landed herself into.

All these bizarre beings floating around, ranging from sentient snowmen with wide smiles, to jack-o-lanterns, to various other oddities...there were few words she had that could really describe it. That, and the word echoing in the back of her head -- Persona? What was that supposed to be? And why was she even brought here by this Philemon guy, anyway? She still had work to do, after paying Ayumu that last visit...she couldn't afford these delays now, of all times.

...But then, it doesn't look like she has much of a choice in the matter. Well, if that's how it's going to be, then...she might as well see what she can find out, especially with her lack of obvious sources.]

[Video]

[Oh, would you look at that, the feed's on again.

This time, there's a teenage girl with long hair tied into braids on the other end, still tinkering with the COMP--and when the feed goes on suddenly, she steps back a little bit.]

--Oh! I didn't think this would have a camera...

Hello there~ [Have the most sickeningly sweet smile gracing your screens, fellow Visitors.] Can anyone tell me why I was brought all the way to this city? I've already taken the time to ask some of the locals, but no one's given me any clear answers...it's a little worrying, to be honest.

Oh, and does anyone happen to know where I can find a place to stay, while I'm here? I'd rather not be curled up on the sidewalk in the cold...

Thanks in advance~

[...Okay, that probably came off a little more forced than she'd have liked, but. After spending two years away from being "Yuizaki Hiyono", she couldn't help but be a little rusty.]

melodyoflogic

[Those at Andromeda High School during break that happen to be passing by the music room might be in for a small treat: With the door left open just slightly on accident, the sound of a piano being played can be heard throughout the hall. The skill of whoever is playing it is more than obvious: On par with that of a professional, or perhaps even beyond that, some would say, a soft and vibrant melody escapes the room while it's player is completely engrossed in the music and his thoughts. Of course the school's piano would draw him here eventually, like a moth to a flame. Music was the one passion he could never fully give up on, after all. Like an addict, the desire to play would continue to call him back to music, no matter how much he tried otherwise to pull himself away.

But if anyone stopped to listen and made their presence aware, the music would stop abruptly.

Ayumu had been biding his time for the network to begin functioning properly again before moving forward with questions he needed to start asking, but now, with the city rebuilding and a fragile peace slowly settling, he knew it was the best time he'd get. ]

[Evening; Anonymous Text]

This place can fix chronic illnesses or health defects people had before their arrival, right? That's what it seems like, anyway. We can even heal injuries with magic.

What about more abnormal ailments? Things that can't be explained by science, even bordering on supernatural or magical. Has this place show itself to be able to have any affect on things like that?

terminally_clever

[No greetings, no introductions... Fumi's just getting right down to business. It's not often she bothers broadcasting things over the network herself, after all. Leaning back in her office chair briefly, she folds her arms before addressing the feed.]

For those of you who were acquainted with her, Miyako Hotsuin is no longer in the city.

[Her voice is flat and her face its usual deadpan expression as she says this.]

As this leaves me as the only official member of the JP's branch office, I will be assuming control of the newly renamed JP's Hinoto-Ri Branch. It's been here long enough that continuing to call it the Nagoya branch seems a bit silly, and I'm relatively sure Miyako had been preparing for an official name change anyway.

[But wait, there's more.]

Additionally, following the departure of Kandori, Takeba, and Kirijo, and in view of the fact that I worked with each of them personally before the recent attack, I will also be taking over administration of the MAGI facility following the cleanup and reconstruction effort.

[No questions, no voting, she's just doing it, apparently.]

However, as there were three branches of the MAGI facility itself without even considering the resources required for the upkeep of the JP's location, I will be conducting interviews for the additional staff and personnel needed to keep things running smoothly. For my own part, I will be acting in Takeba's capacity as the new head of the MAGI Research Branch.

At minimum, I will also require colleagues to take over Kandori and Kirijo's work as the respective heads of the Weapon and Development Branches. Please contact me via secured network communication to apply for any of these positions or as support staff for either MAGI or JP's. You may contact me in the same fashion if you have any questions about what the positions will entail.

...That is all.
