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?

Congratulations on being crowned one of the sexiest visitors, Ideo. Apparently this is, what, twice now?

Boyish looks and nerdy charm? What the hell is that supposed to mean?! I think I'm being insulted... Σ(-`Д´-ノ;)

[Someone's had her attention pointed to the news, and feels compelled to comment on it...]

..."scream queen", really? i am unsure whether i should be flattered or scandalized.

[The feed, ironically, opens with a pixie. However, given she's wearing a labcoat, it's probably Ceu.]

Good afternoon. I do not want to interrupt everyone's...recently acquired subjects of fervor, [The tournament.] but Sir and I have a request to those who have experience with demons, or taming in general. If you could respond here with your specific skills, this would be appreciated.

[The entire time she spoke, Ceu stayed stiff and formal.]

Also, to those who did not receive responses to their request for employment, we apologize for the delay. However, there was a pressing matter we were required to aid with, which still has Sir's attention even now.

Thank you for your time, and attention. Ceu out.

[A bow, and the feed cut off.]

On behalf of the Wise Men, I am posting on the Network regarding employment at Gemini Ward's Molecular Anomalies Gnosis Institute.

[M.A.G.I., if you will.]

Previous experience in the field of scientific research, microbiology, robotics or a related discipline is desirable, but not necessary. More importantly, candidates need to demonstrate strong problem solving skills, an ability to prioritize tasks and independently manage your own day to day activities. All positions will utilize your technical knowledge whilst providing the opportunity to develop additional skills you may lack.

In order to be considered for this role you will be screened and be subjected to drug and background checks. Moreover, while you are allowed to come into the facility with all your weapons, they will have to be removed before entering the core of the premises. It is important that the candidates understand that this is mandatory due to the nature of the highly classified research involved. Normally, candidacy would not be conducted in such a manner, but factoring in your previous homeworlds, the Wise Men decided it could be advantageous to do so.

[Also Ideo decided to start doing it himself and sending people their way, might as well explain the entire process, hmm? Of course that was just reading in the middle of the lines.]

Please submit your Curriculum Vitæ [It's means they want a resume] and Cover Letter explaining your reasoning why you feel you have the required experience to be successful in this role. However, if you are unable to provide either, considering how different each world may be, a simple spoken test will be conducted should you be selected, along with the drug and background checks. Salaries are to be discussed, and are based on previous experience and the job you have been selected for.

We are an equal opportunity employer.

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 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.

We've cracked it-

[Ideo's so rushed-sounding that he's scarcely aware he turned on the video. He's actually not in the lab for once, either. He looks like he's just somewhere on the streets, moving at a pretty fast speed from how hard his heels are hitting the pavement. Is he bleeding, or did he just smudge some on his face from somewhere...?]

-it's by birthday, the affected are all Scorpios. If you see anyone with yellow or red eyes who does not normally have those colors, steer clear or attempt to subdue them. Do not use lethal measures-

[Ideo rubs at his face again.]

-there has to be a way to reverse this. I repeat, do not use lethal means unless there is literally, utterly no other way to remain safe. Please, also try to keep those who are currently paranoid safe as well, we have a hunch that is also based on-

[A stumble, which he automatically rights. He's gonna run out of breath at this point.]

-based on astrology. If you have anyone who needs help that you can't get to- say so here, and someone will try to get to them. The non-persona user population is also affected, so please keep that in mind.

[Ideo suddenly shifts the view off himself, towards the skittering scorpions currently tailing him at an eerily quick clip. He doesn't linger too long on them, and turns the view back with a wince. Basically a confirmation for 'injured'.]

There are also monsters about- those things are not demons, but please avoid them at all possible. If any of the other Seven could contact me asap that would also be very appreciated. Th-thank you-

[And the feed ends that abruptly.]

[All event information can be found here!]

Are any of you familiar with Carl Jung? If not, then I suggest you do.

But that is not my reason to come to you today. Rather it is to, perhaps, open your eyes should you chose to do so.

What makes good, good and evil, evil? Should both be simply placed as one or the other? If the 'evil' become the ruling force, would the rules be reversed? If someone steps up to remove a tyrant, are they doing good, or, in the eyes of others, are they being the ones who are evil?

...Or are we what makes these forces exist in the first place? Can good be really called good if there is no evil to defeat, no goal for them to attain?

You were all called here for a reason, but should you believe one side...or the other about what is the truth? As we become more enlightened, we tend to forget what came before. And as history has a tendency to repeat itself...

A man looks above to the nearby mountain. He knows not how it was made, and therefore decides that a god put it there. Is this man false? Scientifically, perhaps, we know that mountains are produced by the movement of lithospheric plates. Yet when we knew nothing of this, we saw the truth in a god. And so, this idea is born and now exists. Man gave it power, and the ability to create the mountain is now that god's.

Personas are reflections of a character's inner self, yet they are the gods, demons and powerful creatures of our worlds.

So then...can a man become a god...or was he always one?

[ Minato has an extremely important announcement to make. He's very upset by this turn of events because that music player - and his headphones, while we're at it - are very precious to him. Therefore, actually talking to many people at once on this device seems absolutely necessary! So he breaks his record of not broadcasting messages publically for this.

... anyone who watched the videos Yu Narukami posted the other day might recognize Minato as one of several who fell victim to teleporter accidents and wound up in the pool, though he's considerably dryer here. ]


My mp3 player got dunked in a pool the other day. I've been letting it dry since. However, it seems to be shorted out altogether.

... does anyone have any recommendations for a good place to get it fixed? Or... is there anyone here good with electronics?

I'd be very grateful for any assistance. [ pause ] For those I haven't met, my name is Minato Arisato.


ETA:
[ A short while later, he appends a picture of the mp3 player in question as well additional details as they come up. ]

It's from the early 2000s on Earth.
My sister has a working model, if one needs to be seen.

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.]

Hello, everyone. It's good to see the network in use.

[Still wearing a labcoat and a white shirt was Ideo, bowing to the camera way more elegantly than he probably had to. It was set up so that none of the building behind him was discernible, but those who had been there would probably recognize the lighting as that from the Labs themselves. Which...meant Ideo was still there at 10:30 at night, okay.]

My name is Ideo Hazama- some of you met me during the incident in our Sagittarius labs. First, I would like to thank those who participated in helping us push back the Anoli. We could not have succeeded without your help.

[His smile wasn't long-lasting, of course.]

As for those I have not personally met, I am glad you are here, and it is good to meet you at large. Reiko and I work in the Research and Development labs, and focus specifically on technology in relation to demonkind. She is the expert in demon-related combat, however, so any specific queries about such should be directed to her. My main expertise is demon-related defense, as well as negotiation. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask me any time- I am always available.

If for whatever reason you cannot get a hold of either of us, please direct all questions to our associates- [Here, he motioned his hands, and a foursome of fairies entered the frame.] Hua Po, Chou-keshin, Mid Pixie and Ceu.

[The fairies poofed out of frame after a few waves and blown kisses, all except Ceu, who remained stone-faced and serious looking. Ideo didn't seem to notice.] Thank you for your time, and welcome to Hinoto-Ri.
